Baking session!

Hehe I have been neglecting this space, sorry to my loyal reader (you know who you are wink wink <3)

So in order to continue our quest in becoming masterchefs, Jocelyn and I decided to embark on a major cooking project! Frying nuggets, baking DOUBLE CHOC cookies and also a NUTELLA LARVA CAKE!

Actually we sort of cheated. We used a premix for the cookies LOL. Super fuss free, we just need to add water and quarter cup of oil to the mix and that's all!
Lol we used butter instead of oil cause it was cheaper
At this point Jocelyn tasted the batter and said it was super nice. YUCKKKK. I thought it tasted ok but I dont like eating raw flour-y stuff  (;¬_¬)


Oh yea baby, J and A in the house




Nuggets were really easy and yummy too ^_^
Here is the recipe we used for the larva cake!
 We just used rough measurements for the larva cake. How are we to know how much nutella fits on a tablespoon 0.0 as in must scoop until a mountain forms or just one short layer 0.0 So anyways... It was a failure. The cake tasted like flour =((( Sigh, we didnt know nutella could go wrong. =(((
Gross looking and tasting cake =(((
This is actually a new mug! We wanted to throw away the cake and save the mug but the cake was firmly stucked to the edge and couldn't be scrubbed out. So, under the watchful eye of Jocelyn's aunt, we managed to sneak the cup out and throw it away ヽ(≧Д≦)ノ Very naughty right. We're sticking to premixes from now on.

Church piano playing #2


Hi guys today was my second go at piano playing at church but today I didn't do well. :( I would lose concentration halfway and play wrongly.

I kept being distracted by my own negative thoughts.

"Last time I did fine, today will be okay too!"
"Maybe today you'll stumble?"

"I'm okay at playing the piano!"
"Maybe you suck?"

"I'm doing this to serve God, he will accept my playing!"
"Maybe you're just not good enough?"

Le sigh. I wish I could put all this negativity in the trash.
Cheers to a better next time.

Exercise session!


The impetuous Jocelyn signed up for a marathon with her sister so I went to her house to train with her! (Lol so long never run 2.4 le) We wanted to play badminton and run the 5km track around her house. :O

On the way to her house we were whatsapping and decided on an impromptu French Toast cooking session!!! (i.e. the easiest recipe that mrs chew taught us in home econs class) We were determined not to let this be a failed cooking session to break the trend of epic noobness. I am happy to announce that the result is not bad!
simple ingredients: egg and bread!

Me "lemme capture an artistic shot of the egg flowing down"

No egg shells! Will do!

Mix with bread and its ready to be cooked!
Haha this is the first one. Totally burnt!
Alot better on second try!

And do you wanna see what the end result looks like when plated????

Hehe i didnt even need to add a filter! What a stunning dish! If we may say so ourselves lol.


Badminton time!
Weather was not sunny, much to our delight, but there was an impending rain and thus wind was blowing hard so we couldn't play badminton properly. The wind was blowing against me zzzzzzzz. I would whack super hard and the shuttlecock wouldn't reach Jocelyn and she would hit softly but the shuttlecock would fly way beyond the boundary (´Д` ). So... we retreated into the car park to play. I thought our maximum would be 2 hits on the shuttlecock (1 serve and 1 successful hit), but we could have 21 hits on the shuttlecock! *contented* \o/ then we went to gym intensively (?) and then I went home feeling gross and sticky haha.

And my dear partner in crime Jocelyn has a blog too: memoirsofjojo.blogspot.com
Our posts are gonna be so similar cause we always hang out together ahaha

Labour Day

Went out with Jocelyn on labour day! We wanted to eat sushi at IMM but the shuttle bus queue from jcube was very long so we decided on sharing manhattan at jcube.
Ate marbles slab ice cream while queuing for Manhattan
I promise it doesn't look as good as it tastes


And here's what we ate for Manhattan:

Lol gobbled too quickly to take a picture =.="


The plan was to play squash at Jocelyn's house and go to west mall to watch Ironman 3. Did I mention that something always goes wrong when me and Jocelyn are out together?? We planned to buy squash balls from jcube because the last time we played, I served the ball and Jocelyn whacked it vertically upwards to the ceiling bulb in the court...... ALAS, WE FORGOT TO BUY THE BALL.



So, we decided to play with her wii. But....


Batteries leaked and destroyed the controller =.=''
SIGH



But that wasn't going to foil our plans to workout! We googled a workout to do. I think it was this one... http://youtu.be/3mU9QteShsE
Quite useful actually! My body is still aching now lol.

After watching IRON MAN 3 we suddenly remembered to take a picture together. Which we did in the ladies... Very glamorous duo.
