Hey – MIXER 麋先生
This is one of the songs from Taiwanese web drama, HIStory 3 – Make Our Days Count (HIStory 3 《那一天》). The song just kept reverberating in my head since I watched the series last weekend, and I finally found this music video today. The two lead actors, Wayne Song (宋偉恩) & C C Huang (黃雋智), also performed the song at Kaohsiung’s Meet The Fans session on January 12, 2020. I have also included that below.

Live Again 再活一遍 – Bingchih Xiao 蕭秉治
This song is the opening credits theme song to Taiwanese BL web drama, HIStory 3 – Make Our Days Count (HIStory 3 《那一天》). The first time I heard the song late last year, I thought it was good but not really memorable. At the time I did try to search for the drama to watch online but was not able to find any results, well, only preview or promos but no full episodes, so I totally put it out of my mind.

【型男大主廚】Strawberry Mille-Crêpe Roll 夢幻草莓千層卷
Saw this video of a Japanese pastry chef, Masahiro Orita, making mille crêpe roll in 8 minutes! I think due to time constraint, he only made 2 crêpes, but at home if you want to make it, you can increase it to at least 5-6 crêpes per roll to really make it look like thousand-layer…
