FollowOur teenage chef is on a madeleine baking frenzy! She made two batches on the same day some time last week and it was a BIG HIT with everyone, especially Cass. Cass even brought the madeleines to school for recess. She’s one stubborn fella who just wouldn’t want to bring any food to school despite…

Our Dancing Baker
I have a vision for our middle child. As she has talents in baking, cooking and dancing, I told her that she should open a cafe-cum-dance center in future. The ground floor shop lot would ideally be a cafe and the first floor, a dance school. While she manages the cafe and teaches dancing, I’ll…

Sherilyn’s cooking and baking mode is switched on at full speed today. These are what she churned out today: Kkakdugi (Cubed Radish Kimchi) fried rice with cheese, chicken chop and eggs for lunch. She made the radish kimchi a few days ago. Korean honey sesame fried chicken for dinner. These are way better than KyoChon…
RMCO Day 103 ~ Sunday, 20 September 2020
Feeling disappointed that my craving for sublime sugar-reduced banana loaf couldn’t be satiated after Sherilyn’s failed banana loaf, I succumbed to ordering from a homebased seller on our residential garden Facebook group 
At RM18 for a 500gm loaf, the banana loaf was simply amazing — less sweet, fluffy and with lots of bananas inside out.…
MCO Day 80 ~ 5 June 2020 (Friday)
This morning’s jog was cut short when it started to drizzle. Oh how I dislike wet mornings! I continued running for a short while in the drizzle until it got heavier. Getting a minimum of 30 minutes run each day is as important as getting my daily supplements. My daily workout is akin to popping…

Pomegranate Chocolate Cake
My baking queen’s last bake for the year 2018 on 31 December 2018 was a hyper-delicious pomegranate cake, cafe style, complete with decor. It’s pretty unbelievable that a 13-year old baked this! When Sherilyn was much younger, I had suspicion that she had ADHD as she was always hyper-active (and kept getting herself into accidents…

Easy Chocolate Brownies
Today Drama Queen embarked on her first post-UPSR baking. It’s chocolate brownies using Kris Jenner’s (Kim Kardashian’s mother) recipe. She Googled for the recipe, watched it briefly on You Tube and then darted to the kitchen to start work. This time, mess was minimal. After baking, she washed all the gadgets and even mopped the…
Microwave Muffin In A Mug
This is a throwback post. I had forgotten all about this fun activity we did with the girls (supervised by my mum) in Ipoh during the December school holidays last year until I saw the photos in my Google Photos album when I was browsing the album. Busy mummies and daddies, you’ll love me for…
Lemon Cheese Cocoa Sponge Cake
A day before my mil left for Hong Kong, she dug out whatever cake-baking ingredients that were in the fridge that were almost expiring to whip up a delish cake for us. There was no specific recipe for the cake. When I asked her what cake she was baking, she said it’s a ‘whatever ingredients…
The Tastiest Blueberry Cheese Tarts Ever
My mil made some blueberry cheese tarts the other day and it was really the tastiest, juiciest and freshest blueberry tarts ever, simply irresistible and delicious. It was so nice that the whole batch of tarts were polished off in a day. The pastry was crispy, the cheese filling and fresh cream were not too…
Goodies Made With Love From Home
When she’s around, I don’t have to worry about food on the table – 3 meals a day. She prefers homemade breads, cakes, cookies and homecooked food. When she’s around, she would discourage eating out and even discourages buying bread, buns and cakes from the bakery for she will bake them. Here are some of…
Whipping Up A Hurricane
These days, my mil has been very adventurous in the kitchen. Almost everyday, a surprise would await us ;P One of the days last week, she whipped up a hurricane. In just half a day, she whipped up these surprises for us: Baked lemon-orange cheese cake and a big portion of pesto sauce (made from…
Healthy Carrot Cake With Cream Cheese And Pistachios
Here’s another of my mil’s creations: Carrot cake with cream cheese, lemon and roasted pistachios for the health conscious. It is almost oil-free (with no butter or oil used) except for the low-fat Philadelphia cream cheese as topping and is flour-reduced and sugar-reduced. Mil chopping the pistachios, ready to srpinkle them over the cake which…
Delish Homecooked Food And Homemade Cakes
These are some of the dishes that my mil cooked last week: Turmeric (kunyit) chicken which is everybody’s favorite, especially moi! I always polish off all the chopped turmeric and shallots, yums! And then have yellow lips and teeth, hahahaha! Braised turnip with carrots, mushrooms, sliced pork, dried cuttlefish and Chinese parsley. Another of my…
