mre happenings from the kitchen..

over the weekend.. we hit the town! oh yes, we went to ps.. usually dear dear dun like to go orchard but we went there because got daiso and spotlight can take a look.. see mre packaging for my baking stuff.. but didnt get anything.. nothing that is nice..

then after we went to taka to look at the corelle plates.. there is a offer on the dinner sets but it is not the design that i want and it is quite "ang moh" style.. 2 soup bowls.. those very shallow for those cream soups, 4 butter plates, something like tea plates, and those squarish plates.. anyway, no harm window shopping on all these.. i love the plates.. it is truly unbreakable and very light.. very easy to handle!

these are the few designs that i like.. kendy added today that her aunt has used the plates for more than 10 years and it still looks like new! im sure its a worthy investment.. gucci aside.. i think we'll welcome corelle.. the gold premier series even had different designs on the plates with the same theme! dear dear is ok with any design which means i get to choose! haha.. i prefer something cheery so that when we eat at least we face happy things!

introducing country herbs..

here comes cool pansies..

and lush..

then we went home for dinner and i baked banana cake and sweet heart chocolate cookies.. the other time dear dear did not have a chance to try the cookies so made it on saturday night.. our only shot at ps.. hee

ta-da! my yummy banana cake is finally ready! this time, i used the electric mixer to mix all the ingredients, thereby no time to take pictures of my steps.. but a whole cake takes a longer time to bake and requires more eggs.. thereby i seldom bake a whole cakes.. packed three quarter of the cake for dear dear family to try.. coz my mum has been scolding me that i bake and bake and made them all fat by eating such sweet stuff..

dear dear family loves it! they finished half of the cake i brought! his mum said is not too sweet and taste natural.. dear dear ate i think more than 5 thick slices.. a few in the afternoon and some after dinner.. well, im glad they love it!

though there are some cracks but it taste great!

packing for his family..

the quarter that i left at home is left untouched whereas the cookies are gone! guess that's the difference.. his family prefers the cake where my family prefer the cookies.. but i find cookies are too dry..

throat has not been feeling good.. it's been a long time since we go k.. coz our voices are not totally back! it has been weeks!

this week will be baking more cinnamon rolls for his family to try since they didnt try it the last time..

p.s his mum asked me today.. you are so good in baking.. can you cook? cook chicken curry and told me to go and learn.. i was like.. i cant answer and said im a great cook.. but i can lah..
dear dun forget yr promise to tell your mum that i can cook.. not chicken curry though..
