I smell of butter

-
Has being doing alot of baking on weekends. I have managed to bake a Prune butter cake for Vivien when I visited her on Friday nite. Luckily the prune cake turned out well and I am glad the family like it. She suggested I tried chocolate next time. hahaha..

I went to get fresh coconut to squeeze out coconut milk to make the kueh Bangkits. This time I used the Saga flour instead. Well, the result was good cos the biscuit really melted in the mouth but I dun like the taste the sago flour. I still find tapoica flour give a better fragnant but was very tricky to work with tapoica flour. Well, I will not be trying to make anymore kueh Bangkits since my sister fly my kite and didnt turn out to help me. I still managed to clear up the 600g of saga flour and make two small boxes of kueh Bangkits.

Well, my love letter was running low so i make more for my mum and MIL. I have no intention to save anything for myself. All these making has make me lost the craving for CNY goodies.

I make another attempt for Kueh Lapis again, since I have some hard liquer left and didnt want to waste them but that meant I have 15 eggs white not knowing wat to do with it. Together with the previous batch tat was 30 worth of egg white. I couldnt find any recipe to clear my egg white yet.

2nd attempts of Lapis, I cut down the butter but it turn out a bit dry. I have asked my collicks to test my 1st Lapis and they said was very nice. Very nice of them....

Well, I still intent to make 2 cakes for the kids to bring to school on Friday.

 It was a busy Sunday with celebration. 1stly we attending Amelia One year old birthday ceclebration.  BIL invited a magician to perform for the kids. The magician brought along a buddy for the kids to pat after the show. We are supposed to come for birthday dinner much earlier because Janelle insert her Korea trip last min and daddy have to change the timing. Luckily we still able to get seat on 23 Jul.  They have an order your pasta counter where they cook the pasta on the spot. Lobster is not really our favourite and it was quite true because the meat was not sweet and a bit tougher than poached prawn. Skyler like the pasta but not the lobster so we share the lobster instead but we only share the half lobster after that none of us wanna waste our tummy space for it.  The dessert table are full of beautiful dessert.  We finally remember to get someone to take a family shot for us. Infact, our table is full of foo...

I always dream to go for it but I hate running/jogging. I dun have the stamina to do even a 1km run. How to go for 10km? I must be crazy! Yes, 48 now and I dun start having crazy thought and things I will never get to do it. The begining of the run was because a colleague who hardly exercise said he will join so people like me of same category also signed up to support him. Furthermore, he will be walking and not jogging, which is same as me. WALKING. We started late because we waiting for you and me. Starts around 7am, the race for 10km run started at 6.30am Feeling shiok because you only got to walk like a big "boss" in the middle of the road as if you own it at this moment. Must enjoy it.  We still walking to the starting point which like we walk for another 1km. Take a photo before we start.  Taking picture along the way since I am walking. I feel like a tourist then doing a race but I have doubt how am I going t...
