Recipe - Cream Cheese Cranberry Cake

Twitched a bit from the Cream Cheese Marble Cake recipe, and here's my cranberry cakes ...


I've caught on the baking bug!!! And also have gotten a really easy and fuss free recipe. From preparing ingredients to sending in the cakes to bake, all done within an hour. Fast right ^_^

The only thing is I forgotten to squeeze the cranberries dry before adding in to the batter and hence the berries all sink to the bottom. But taste wise ... still very SEDAP!!!

Recipe - Cream Cheese Marble Cake

Hmm ... Sunday ... and I am stuck at home with the kids. Hubby? Went Pasir Gudang loh :p

Not wanting to waste my Sunday away, I've decided to bake something. I've gotten a new recipe recently and plan to give it a try today.

** Ingredients all ready **

The traditional way of making butter cake is to beat butter with sugar then blend in the flour but this recipe states to do the rub-in method to combine in ingredients. Interesting right ^_^ as least it is to me because it is the 1st time I make butter cake using this method.

** This is how my butter + cream cheese with flour + sugar looks like after applying the rub-in method **

Anyway, on with the process and very soon, the batter are all placed in little cupcake cases and ready for baking ...


And after about 25 mins in the oven ... VIOLA!!!


Check out my recipe blog for the recipe ^_^

Hope Dashed Again ...

I've got another feeling that my holiday plans (a trip to HK) got to be thrown into the bin once again. *sigh* So much for the excitement of checking out air ticket prices and places to visit ... all of these only made my disappointment greater.

Hubby told me this morning that he might not be able to take leave after his course because there are heaps of paperwork for him to clear when he is done with the course. Unless he can clear it fast (which he himself doubts it), or else holiday is a big NO NO!!!

*sigh*

Flower Pot For Mother's Day ^_^

Went for a baking workshop with Tracy today. The workshop is conducted by Anna Chan of Sugar Inc - Buttercream Roses Cake Workshop (Hands-On Decorating Workshop).

We were taught how to make Cream Cheese Butter Cake and how to decorate it with buttercream roses and foudant. We were taught how to pipe roses and use fondant to decorate the cake so the end product looks like a flower pot. It is really an interesting course I say.

Check out the end product of my cake.


Pretty right ^_^ I almost can't bear to cut the cake up hehehe. Gona try making this for Mother's Day this year.

School Trip to Jacob Ballas

Oswald's school had arranged a trip to Jacob Ballas for the K1s. Oswald was so excited when he heard of the news a week before and he was so looking forward to this trip. I was also invited also to help facilitation of the trip. Also, with great thanks to Peggy for baby sitting Owein, then I was able to join the group.

Check out all the happenings from my album.

Drama - 璀璨的遗产 (Brilliant Legacy)

With a catchy theme song and a nicely developed storyline, this show is worth checking out.


Go Eun Sung's life is similar to Cinderella's. After her father died, her step-mother, Baek Sung Hee, took away all of her assets and her younger brother, Eun Woo, suddenly disappears without a trace. Despite this, Eun Sung preservers and works really hard to fulfill her dreams.

When the CEO of a food company, Jang Sook Ja, suffers amnesia and can't remember who she is, Eun Sung takes her in. However, Eun Sung does not know that she is also the grandmother of Sun Woo Hwan, the man who she switched bags with at the airport.

How will their constant bickering lead them to realize that they care more about each other than they let on?

Looking for a place with cheap and nice food with a nice environment to chill out with friends?

This place does not have fancy tables and chairs and no fancy decorations but is sufficient enough to enjoy a chill out time with friends.

The place looks not bad right ... located in Punggol Park, Bliss Restaurant.

The food we had tasted not bad too. Portions just right and quite reasonable pricing. Here's what we had ...
