rainy days are here again...

It's the rainy season again. Personally i feel that raining is okay if you are indoors and able to get some sleep but it's NOT okay when you are out cycling, with no shelter in sight. Which was what happened today!! Ahhhh!! was supposed to cycle to Sentosa with my friend but since it started raining, plan was canceled. We went to Great World City instead to window shop. Great World City appears to be really quiet which is great since i hate crowds. And no. I am not claustrophobic. Or whatever -phobic illness that is. I simply enjoy having my own space. And also because i think i offend people whenever i am around them so its probably best for everyone i stay alone. =p

Oh yah. Nisa smsed to ask me about the recipe i sent her. It takes alot of trial and error before i hit on the right formula and i think it can still be improved. The basic measurements are there but i usually add more of a particular ingredient if i'm in the mood for it, like more chocolate or more milk depending on how moist i want the cake. So i'm afraid poor Nisa is gonna get very confused. I hope her cake turns out right though. And the whipped cream is a killer! Too much beating and the fats separate from the liquid resulting in a disgusting grainy mess. Too little and the cream slides off your cake. ARGH!! And you need to be very careful when adding powdered flavouring into the cream. The powder stiffens the cream so you may end up overbeating the cream and still get clumps of congealed powder! Ewww!!

Okay time for an announcement!! TADA!! I succeeded in making Tan Tan! Steam Egg Pudding! Hong Kong style!! Made two! I ate 1 straight off the stove and left the other in the refrigerator. Yummy!! It's pale yellow and not too whobbly. I'll probably make more next time, with HL milk since i like the vanilla taste. Okay gonna go sleep le. Gotta wake up early tomorrow. And i still want to be a doctor! So fight!!
