Easter Cupcakes

Just for fun, I baked and decorated some cupcakes for Amanda, my little mischievous niece.

She likes the 'easter eggs' only.

My Birthday Celebrtion

This year, my friends surprised me with a birthday treat at TGIF Puchong.

Beautiful Sunday

The many tales of 4 ladies and their eight kids, whom spent a wonderful Sunday in the shopping mall
Chatting (more like shouting) their hearts out and losing their voice as a result.

Chinese New Year 2011

What I did during my CNY 2011 :

Master my skills in mahjong sessions :-

Makan makan here and there

Found a little wee bit of time between makan and mahjoing to do cupcakes for my friends little girls :-

I just love Chinese New Year...

I truly enjoyed every moments of spending this time of the year with my family, relatives, friends and having a merry good time.

ELBA Oven

Today, after having my Elba Oven for about 2 months, I discovered the actual correct methods to control/use it.

Managed to bake 2 types of cakes in an afternoon- no burnt, no half baked and definitely edible.

Malacca Riverside

Photos from my recent trip to Malacca

Tan Kim Seng Bridge is the most important bridge across the Malacca River. It joins Jonker Street to the Dutch Square. It was named after the early 19th century Malaccan born Hokkien philantropist, who donated it to the town.

Malacca River

Today, the Malacca River has been cleaned up and rehabilitated. Smart looking (and underused) cafes line its banks. There is also a Malacca River boat ride. The ride takes 45 minutes. The fare, at time of writing, is RM7 for adults and RM3 for children. The tour starts at the Malacca River Boat Jetty near the Dutch Square (Town Square). This boat ride is now quite famous, having even appeared in the American movie "Entrapment" in 1998.

it's like Venice in Equator

All I Want For Christmas

Is a new Oven..

My old faithful Elba has finally decided to call it a day, after toiling for almost 10 years in it's crampy corner of my humble kitchen.


So hubby and me trudged to those electrical shops and we ended up in Carrefour, where I bought a new Elba oven.




Now I have to learn how to use those functions on their knobs. The instruction manual is one of the simplest I have read, so there will be lots of trial and error and most probably burnt food & cakes..

emmm...maybe I should wish for a handsome chef to come with the Oven!!

Santa Claus..can I have a second wish please!!

Merry Christmas

I am already in the Chrimassy mood..planning wat to cook for the pot luck X'mas Eve's dinner at Uncle James Bond's place..yes, you did read it rite. My uncle like to call himself James Bond, so if the name pleases him, so be it.

Would really love to do some nice cuppies, decorated with fondant (since that my latest 'fever' now)..hubby & doters have banned me from tormenting them with my cupcakes. Each to his (or in my case), her own, I have stencilled some of my X'mas deco already, to be assembled onto the cuppies.

And today, these edible images caught my eyes...they will definitely make the decorating a breeze..
