Insane or ?

Came back from work yesterday and suddenly have the urge to try out another recipe of muffin. Muffin again? Well, mom loves the blueberry muffin when she went over to States for the holiday last year and ever since then, she has been talking about muffin each time i bake. And my previous two attempts of muffin didn't turn out very well.

My first raisin muffin came out ok, just that they say it is a bit hard..found out the problem, Aiya, the recipe says 'melted' butter, but instead i just used the butter left melted in the room temperature (well to me, that is already melted wat...) n kena marah from mom - don't understand English ah...some more come out from 'big' school!!! haha. But anyway, grandma was willing to take back for breakfast. So that means, not too bad, i think can rate 3/5


My second cheese muffin was rated 1/5! hahaha. Again, kena marah. This time more teruk, from almost the whole household except the 'kakak' at home. 'Why? Not even perfect the first recipe already try a different one?' Anyway, made my poor son and hubby have some, but the rest, my good ole kakak has to help me eat. Actually, personally i don't think that it is that bad....tasted better the next day...it is just cheddar cheese..but come to think of it, maybe it is very bad, cos imagine a person who eats everything without complaining also say 'no taste one your muffin'. haha

So this 3rd attempt, the chocolate chip nut muffin was much better. Mom approves, though she says a bit sweet, but at least the texture is alright. No longer can throw at the wall!! And my little test bunny is the best..he says 'mommy, the muffin can bounce one...' hahaha. So thumbs up!!!
Phew...finally!!!

Easter Holiday is already over!

Since my last post, i have been in the kitchen most of the time. And yes, Zach and I did make our gingerbreadman cookie and he was proud enough to bring those cookies to his pre-school and share them with his friends. And not only that, he also gave some to his auntie and his auntie proudly showed off to her friends...saying..'my nephew is only 3 plus and he bakes these cookies'!!!! haha

Anyway, it is indeed a good way to spend time with him, especially when i can hardly cope with all his other super-active activities - ball kicking, water gun shooting etc... and it is only during baking that he slows down his pace. But still half of the time, i am not able to keep my eyes off him, even for 1 minute, just in case he decides to add something extra to the mixture....

Some cakes did turn out well, some didn't...but to Zach, he is always nice enough to tell the mummy, 'everything tastes nice'.... *meltz my heart*...ohhhhhh

Well...the baking journey continues.....

It's March already!!!

How time flies...tried to update this blog a couple of times....but my biggest excuse is my laziness!
But i did do some baking...that is becos i have my baking 'sifu' with me, my auntie. We baked 2 cakes in two days and never get the chance to snap any pics...since all the 'greedy' bunnies will not let me do that...in the first place, they cannot even wait for the cake to cool down!!

Anyway, since next week is school holiday, i have already promised Zach that 'we' will make some gingerbread man together...and he is looking forward to that...but actually i, myself am a bit nervous... shud attempt something simpler.... we'll see the results!!! And hopefully i will get a chance to snap some pics this time!!
