Baking mania!

Today was very very productive~
Am proud of myself! =)
I deserve a pat on the back!

Haha, I managed to accomplished the few things that I needed and wanted to do which were
1.cut the grass
2.printed out my chord sheets and had a fun time during practice
3.baked butter cake and chocolate chip cinnamon muffins!

I woke up at 9am, had a cup of coffee and then proceeded to cut the grass around 10am. Finished at 11.30am. Helped my maid to bathe my dogs and then straight took a bath and then went for music practice. Came home around 4.15pm and then rested for a while. After dinner I started baking! Wanted to bake for quite some time already just that I did not have the time.

My mum even asked me, why do you always seem to bake only at night. Well, I ain't got no choice! =)

Thankfully the butter cake turned out perfectly if I may say so myself!



It was super moist! My dad does not have a sweet tooth,I mean, he doesn't even like chocolates! But I know that he loves butter cake. =) Am glad he liked it!
As usual, Chris was just glad to have something to eat.Have you ever eaten a cake fresh out of the oven? The warmth and heat still entrapped in the cake. Every buttery bite is enough to make you swoon on your feet.

And just to show you how much I've missed baking, I made chocolate chip cinnamon muffins while the butter cake was baking!

Baking twice in a row is something I never thought I would ever do.Imagine all the cleaning up I would have to do. Haha, but as the muffins were quite simple, I just reused the same bowls used while making the butter cake. Actually,I am quite intimidated by muffins as this is my,if I'm not mistaken,my fourth attempt in making muffins and the first few batches did not turn out as well as I had hoped.I was actually a little worried and scared and I thought to myself, if this time the muffins do not turn out nicely,that would be my last muffin attempt!Thank God it turned out beautifully. But I had so little faith in my muffins that after taking them out of the oven,I just left them on the kitchen table and went to the living room. I was disappointed at the look of the muffins but as the saying goes,"Do not judge a book by it's cover" or in this case,muffins!

Chris came running out to me saying,"Eh,Dix, you muffins very nice la this time!" Woosh, I instantly felt relief!

The chocolate chip cinnamon MUFFINS!!!

Chrissie told me this joke which I feel should be shared.

Everyone has a photographic memory,it's just that some do not have any films...

Don't get it? Well, never mind than! =) Adios! Until we meet again!
