Cup with Straw.

I bought a cup with straw for Ashley. The indication wrote, the cup is for 9+ months baby. Ashley is 7 months 2 weeks now. I was thinking, never mind, just give her a try....
To my surprise, very quickly she knows how to suck from the straw. Mother nature!!!! Just have to be patient in the first 10 minutes....

Famous Amos Cookies | 1 Oct, 2011

Last week, all of a sudden, i have a craved for Famous Amos cookies. I was thinking, where can i buy the cookies... i called 2 colleagues and get ask them to buy for me if they happen to go to the shop while they have their lunch. Of course, i did not get to eat it. After work, straight away, i visit a Famous Amos shop near to my house. I am so satisfy at the first bite.... Yummy... However, this cookies is too expensive to eat. 100 gram cost me RM10 something.

Then that night itself, i start looking for the recipe online. And i found it.
Of course, i tried to make it too....

This is the experiment product.

Still have plenty of room for improvement. I sort of know what went wrong. I dont have enough chocolate chips and chocolate bar. Master Chef told me, when baking cookies, we need to use 上下火 plus fan. So the cookies become crispier. Next time, next time i will make a better cookies.

Back to the Basic - White Toast | 2 Oct 2011

I have been stop making bread for sometime. Reason being, bread take longer time to make and the end product was not satisfying most of the time. The bread i made, normally taste soft and good while it is still warm. However, it turn tougher after it was completely cool down. And i can smell the yeast.

This time, Mr Kuan has asked his friend, "Master Chef" to come to our house and teach us make bread. Master Chef opens few bakery shops and it is very well known in KL - 棠记饼家.

He makes it so simple... of course, the end product is satisfying one. Most importantly, i know which part of the process went wrong when i am making my own bread. Guess, coming weekends, will be on Bread, bread bread....

Master Chef and Mr Kuan..



Freshly baked white bread, waiting to cool before it send to my stomach.

Yes, this time the bread taste good and soft. And it did not turn tough after it cool down.


This is what i prepared, lunch for Master Chef. Homemade 板面.

Carrot Cheesecake

A colleague gave me this recipe. And it makes me want to try and make it...
A lot of ingredient.... One thing i found interesting is that, beside carrots, the recipe actually put pineapple into the cake. I like raisins, i add some raisins too.


Done with the baking and have to cool it before assemble.

Cut the cake into 2 layers. And spread each layers with some cheese...

Decorate the cake with some carrots... I know it does not look so nice, at least it add some colors into the cake :) Good try!!!

Kind of a fattening cake because of the cheese, butter, oil, pineapple, icing sugar, castor involved.... but i ate a lot because it taste great.
