So... the holidays have just started. We have Cross-Country tomorrow so there will be no lessons at school. And yes, I'm going; to support Macdougall in the hopes that we might actually win this year! Yeah! Green pride, yo! :D
While I was trying to make swiss meringue butter cream a week ago, my hand mixer died on me. :( One of the beaters just stopped working. So I couldn't finish whipping up the butter cream with only one beater so I deemed the swiss meringue butter cream a fail. D: I wasted so many eggs; so I don't think I will ever try it again.
But!!! I am never going to give up my goal of making the perfect frosting with good balance in terms of sweetness and stiffness for piping. I want to pipe beautiful swirls that will not melt on my cupcakes one day... AND I WILL.
But to achieve that goal... I will have to get a brand new mixer (I want a Kenwood one but they are so bloody expensive!!!). Which I will!!! Hopefully sooner than later. :D I have been suffering from baking deprivation AND IT IS KILLING ME!!! I just sat in front of my computer for the whole day last Sunday (I usually bake on Sundays) and I was so bored because I had no mixer to make CCC dough with. :(
I couldn't stand not baking anymore (And also because I was partly craving for something to eat) so I made crumbly cookies just now. They require absolutely nothing electronic, except for the oven, which I thought was perfect for my now mixer-less self. And I took pictures!!!
Yes, the lighting in my kitchen is that good. HAHA! No lah. I wish. I've been learning how to improve the lighting in pictures using Photoshop so that when I take pictures of food, they will look 10x more appealing. And yes, the cookies are supposed to be ugly like that.

So have a nice first term of holidays, guys!
Hopefully there won't be any accidents happening at Bukit Shahbandar tomorrow because it was raining pretty heavily just now. Good luck to all the houses tomorrow! But I am naturally biased; so MACDOUGALL is gonna win. Hopefully. :)
Enjoy the rest of the week and STAY SAFE! Remember to lock all the doors! :)
