My New Baby - Macaron

Today I baked these cute little macarons again when the 2 little princesses were sleeping in the afternoon. I cant remember exactly how many failed attempt I had in the past weeks, 7 or 8?? But this is the first time I tried again after attending a class organised by famous Aunty Yochana. She is really helpful and generous in sharing all the tips and skills, and that made my first sucessful batch of macaron!!! Thank you so much Aunty Yochana!!

When Kor Xuan woke from the afternoon nap, she was so happy to see me piping the filing and sandwich the macaron, she immediately ask for one and cant stop eating after that.... if not that I stop her and threaten her taht she might fall sick, think she can finish half a tray.... should have snapped a picture of her eating the macarons..... Well, to make her happier and more excited, think I shall try our favourite "CHOCOLATE MACARON"!!! That will be mummy next project!!

Macaron baking in the oven.

It started to rise and the little feet appeared!! can you imagine how excited when I see the little feet? Nevertheless, there were some slightly cracked macaron, think is due to the oven temperature too high, will try with lower temperature next time...

So... do wait and look forward to our beloved chocolate macaron!!

It's Xmas Eve

Instead of buying a log cake for our christmas eve, I decided to make this Santa Clause cake, copying the idea from one of the blog that I frequent. Isn't it cute? Little Kor Xuan help me with the decoration, she placed and arranged all the strawberries on Santa Clause hat and the curled white chocolate for the beard.... and of course as usual she wont forget to gobble up some of the chocolate in her mouth during the process...... See a video of the Xmas Song from the little princess.... i didnt teach them this, think thay learn from Ah Hong Ah Yi last Christmas....

And of course the next program after singing the Xmas song and having the cake will be unwrapping the presents ..(haha, the chrismas eve celebration turn out to be more like their combined birthday celebration).....

They were so excited to unwrap the present... (haha... again good acting... they actually chose the present themselves in the morning at Robinson, Kor Xuan even helped me with the wrapping just few hours ago...hahaha....)

Dadan.... See what they get (or rather what they have chosen):

Baby in Pram for Kor Xuan and Bathing Baby for Kor Yu...

My Little Playground

Kor Xuan has spotted some craft book taht we bought from Taiwan in the cupboard, so she requested atht we do something after lunch... Well, if not for her, I would have forgotten about the book already.... We chosen a page to do, I asked them to tear out the colour paper following the cutting line from the book and I helped them with the folding and assembling....And, this is the end result... the playground!!! Kor Xuan was very creative to put the clay octopus that we made last staurday with siao mei ah yi on the horse!! Think the octupus sure enjoy her ride!!

Christmas Cookies

Snowman for Kor Yu



Butterflies for Kor Xuan

Kor Xuan and Kor Yu were so happy to receive these delicious cookies from Aunty Yochana, thank you very much! Kor Yu actually cant wait to unwrap the cookies (that's why I din manage to atke a photo of it in the wrapping) and sitting quietly at the table to eat her cookies when we reach home... And it was so delicious that she refuse to let me have a bite (thta was not usual her, she was actually quite generous to share in normal time...), so I can imagine the cookies must be really nice!!

As for Kor Xuan, she was more patient, she wanted to show her daddy first when he come home in the evening... so she cant bear to eat it.... hopefully I can steal a bite when she eat it!!
