New Year's Eve 2014

Spent the day with le BFF on New Year's Eve and it was fun!!!

We resolved to cook something decent for lunch, in order to end the chronicles of unfortunate cooking episodes.

Not sure if I ever mentioned them, but here are some:

1. Jocelyn's oven tripped the electricity and potatoes ended up hard and undercooked  

2. Our baked pasta had the weirdest tomato sauce I ever tasted, and was too overloaded with our generous toppings of mozzarella cheese

3. We burnt sugar and butter into a hard caramel block which took forever to wash off (home econs class)

4. Got rashes from eating our own chocolate chip cookies =.=

So... Being passionate youths(?) who never give up, we decided to bake shepherd's pie today!!!

Here are the ingredients that we painstaking diced up.  

Jocelyn hard at work. 

We were planning to handle this ourselves but Jocelyn's brother helped out a lot. ＼(^o^)／

And finally... The end product!!!

Yummy shepherd's pie topped with mozzarella!!! 

And as usual we forgot to take a nice picture before digging in, literally. Hastily put back that slice for a picture and covered another destroyed portion with the spoon. 

Yay, it was a great success! Shared with everyone in the family and I think they think so too :) woohoo, is this the start of the series of successful cooking episodes? ^_^
