Important Dates


GAHHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Oh well...

At least it's only going to be on the 2nd week of February...

And btw, this timetable does not cover the English written exam,
which is going to be held tomorrow.

*random*
I am -NOT- taking any cake orders during the 1st and 2nd week of February.
Studies are VERY important (uh-huh.)

Okay, I shouldn't be here.
*poofs*

Wish me all the blessings for a 4.0GPA!!! :D

Food Update!

Hey guys!
I know, I don't even remember when was the last update that I did. lol

Or what it's about rofl.
-checks-

Oh, Christmas + New Year's wishings and some random update XD

Okay :D

So today, you'll get a food update! ;D
Happiness :D :D :D

So, on the 24th, here's what I had for dinner :D

Ze MAIN COURSE:

TURKEYYYYYY!!! :D
-ROASTED Turkey :9

Is your mouth watering yet? 8D
Juicy turkeyyyyy :c

-gulp!-

8D
basically, my face is shining, just by looking at it.

Did you know?
I had attempted to edit all these on Monday last week...
When I was SUPER hungry, awaiting for my college bus DX

I really know when to edit mouth-watering pictures -_____-;;

Anyway, on Christmas morning, this is what I had :)

Christmas pie :D
yeah, with the reindeer and Christmas Tree XD

btw, I got the moulds for this, so muahahahahhaahaaa :K
I'll be baking some Christmas cookies this year with them :K

My share of the pie <3

Of course, after Christmas, there was still some dinners and others to attend.
and after that, I chiong-ed my assignments =___=

Yeah, 2 weeks of breaks and I chiong-ed assignments.
I know. What a life ._.

Well, anyways...

I've decided that I'd make cakes and sell them if there's an order.
(self-promoting rofl)

So by the time I'm out of college,
I hope to be able to earn some cash... (Say... RM1000 in 4 years?)
out of this business.

Yes, people, you heard me right.
"BUSINESS".

Because before the year ended, I had an order for a cake :)
This was how it turned out :D


When the glaze hasn't hardened.
Chocolistically-deli-much? :D
I know ;)

Oh yeah.
It was ONE TALL cake.
(note: 'was'. I sold it, and it was finished on the same day itself :x)

It was just THAT good :D


Final outlook before it disappeared completely.

From me, that is.
My friend had ordered it for her grandmother's B-Day :D

She didn't want much deco as she said she'd do the writing herself.
Fair enough :)

So I asked her to send me a pic of the final outlook of the cake.


.... yeah, I shouldn't have credited this photo as my own...
but, oh well.

It was the only photo I have, she said the others were blur XD
lol

And after a while, mum claimed she can't eat eggs.
Chinese elderly said that people who underwent surgery mustn't eat eggs.
They cause swelling in the stomach :/

So she bugged me into making this:

Bread pudding rofl.
Portuguese-style!
with limited ingredients...

Close-up, out from the oven :D
It was... eggifying :/
but okay XD
even if it was eggifying XD
(note: it was eggifying because I had put in 4 eggs when they asked for 4 :x)

It didn't stop me from making more though :D

Unfortunately for you though,
I only have one photo of this bread pudding.

I didn't bother snapping anymore after that :x

Following that,
Mum had ordered a cake;
Cheesecake, for my sister's B-day.

And my sister asked for
Chocolate Crust
(like Secret Recipe) :D

So, I decided to make it extra special by making decorations!
(following YouTube's advise :)

Here was what I ended up with!

Homemade marzipan, with not-so-homemade colouring :c

Yes, it's a rose, and yes, the background of it is
loose marzipan.
There IS another uncoloured rose behind it.

In the end, I didn't place the rose on the cake.
(It looked too out of place rofl)

Now, say hello to ze CAKE!!

My second cheesecake!
(Ignoring other people's advice and following the recipe exactly) XD

See?
It's such a high cake :o
And delicious, too! :D


I know you want it! :D

Yessssss...
It was terribly delicious XD

Especially after 2 days of baking :o


As P Gip was here with us during my sister's bday,
she ordered one 2kg cake as well.

Chocolate though, this time.

:o

Okay, this one was nice, but it wasn't up to my expectations.
I think I should watch the baking time more closely x_x

This was the cake that I stayed up on until 3am in the morning XD
Well, P Gip tipped me as well so lol...


For the last closing picture of this baking expedition/food update,
I give you... PERSIMMON!!!

So cute, we couldn't really eat it lol.
XD

That's all folks!

*btw, HAPPY CHINESE NEW  YEAR!
(I'll be posting my trip to Malacca soon;
and properly wish you then.)

Til next time! :D

Finally!

Woo yeah!

Hey people! 'sup!

Yeah, I know.

I'm late (again!) with my Christmas greetings and New Year wishes.
So, Merry Christmas and Happy New Years! :D

There are many things that are worth blogging about between the times...
but I simply can't coz I'm currently undertaking some other businesses for now.

When I've finished with those, I will update you :D

For now, I'll just update about the 19th Dec 2011.

I brought this to my college :D
Can you read, can you read?! :D
"Merry Christmas" :D
*okay, ugly drawing, sorry, can't help it D:

It was supposed to be 2-tiers, but the cream was so good that I decided to keep one for myself :x
It was Awesomeeeeeeeeeeee!! :D

Another pic :D

Yeah, you read right.
"Welcome home Mum" in Squiggles :D
Why "Welcome Home"?
Cause on the 18th, my Mum was discharged from the hospital after her surgery.
Oh, don't worry; she went under the knife for fibrosis.

But now she's okay :)
Recovering well... just couldn't drive or work yet :x

I have another awesome chocolate-y picture to show you,
but now is not the time.

I've yet to transfer all finger-licking pictures from phone to computer for editing.
(Yes, THAT back-dated rofl)

For now, I have to leave.
See you, and have a blessed New Year :D
