i'm soooooo tired and busy!!! and now tt i've graduated, i seem to lost track of time!!! i cld hardly rmb wad i've been doing these past few days too, all i know tt it's been busy after the chi new yr started.
anw, did lotsa bakings la.
new yr eve helped me mama do dumplings. it's not my 1st time making it, but it's been a looooong time since the last time i did it, so that i did it disastrous this time.. hehe. mummy tried to teach me the correct way of wrapping the fill properly, but i cld only do it successfully after i practised on a few dumplings... alright, more than a few dumplings, which is to say, the near-to-correct dumplings i made r the fews left after i made sooooo many defective ones. HAHA. right.

erm. one of my ugliest dumplings. opps

my near-to-correct dumpling
and my ma's dumpling... nice hor?
and the thing is, my pa found my dumplings inedible.. omg. cos the skin is too thick. oh well, at least i learnt my mistake.. i cld improve the next time i do it. try it.... anyone???
and then i baked butter cookies wit ting at her hse.. my baking khaki haha. 1st time starting frm scrach without anyone's help!




it's adorable.. dont ya think so??? it's rather delicious too, but a bit dry tho; u can have it alongside with coffee/tea. can try improving it again. easy to make, if i had the time i wld do it again and give to my frens! oh ya, not to mention baking other snacks again with ting! so convenient la haha.. since we live soooo near to each other. ;)
next, i tried meringues with ni at my hse. in detail, it's called the Mini Chocolate Cornflake Parlova Meringues. such a long name la. basically this snack doesnt require any flour, except a lil of the cornflour la. when i see the recipe, i tut it'd be easy to bake. and so we were baking happily in the 1st place, in between the process there were doubts and questions arised, and the outcome, well, we failed. LOL. turned out tt u actually need some experience doing this snack.. cos we didnt beat the mixture well enough and AND, tooooo much sugar, toooooo sweet!!! and the outcome of our snacks turns out to be so different frm how it's spposed to look like lo!! (shall post the pics next time when i get e pics, u'll see e big diff) awww anw, ni and i agreed to do it all over again the next time, and most importantly, it must be successful!!!!
♥ i love baking!!! ♥
