I am le preggo

27 January 201525 February 2015

I have absolutely no idea how many pregnancy tests I’ve bought. It started off with a very very VERY faint line (hardly visible). I’ve read somewhere that evaporation lines can sometimes appear so I decided to test again the next day with first morning urine. Lo and behold, the beginning of multiple tests haha. The most expensive test that I’ve purchased was the Clearblue digital test. It only tells you in words whether you’re ‘Pregnant’ or ‘Not Pregnant’. It even indicates how far along are you (mine was 1-2 weeks).

Anyway, here’s to a new adventure for the goat year.

Pineapple Cookies

26 January 2015

I love me some pineapple cookies! Decided to make them this year for Chinese New Year. My mother-in-law makes them every year. They’re really superb! Melts in your mouth mmmmmm.

The recipe was modified from this recipe: http://nyonyafood.com/pineapple-tarts-pineapple-rolls-recipe/?pid=136

250g butter (1 block)
80g powdered sugar (not a fan of very sweet pastry)
2 egg yolks
320g all purpose flour
1/2 tbsp corn flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla essence

1. Throw in butter and sugar into your mixer. Let it mix well.
2. Dump in the egg yolks.
3. Mix the all-purpose flour, corn flour and baking powder in another bowl.
4. Put in the flour into the batter tablespoon by tablespoon.
5. Put in the vanilla essence.
6. When the batter is mixed well and there are no visible flour, scoop some and put into the cookie mould press.
7. Press it out in the form of a strip, put some pineapple filling and roll it.
8. Lightly brush with an egg yolk if you like for that glazing brown look.
9. Bake at 150°c for 30 minutes.

Reddit Secret Santa 2014

17 January 201519 January 2015

Reddit hosts the Secret Santa event every year and last year, I’ve decided to join in the fun. I opted to match with someone from the same country and they matched me with a foreign guy who is living in Malaysia. Got him a care package and Poslaju-ed it to him. My initial Secret Santa did not send me anything so I got rematched with another person. My Secret Santa turned out to be from Canada and he got me these lovely items! 😀

Came home to find this box! Thank you, Mr Postman!

Let’s just hope I wasn’t trolled :'(
