baking!

went shihui's house with insane and xy to help bake brownies for xy!

first time i've ever baked with someone else except my family (other than home econs waaaaay back in sec 2).
feel privileged, people!
haha.

the brownies are super nice!
full of chocolate chunks, and looked like a chocolate cake when it came out of the oven.

we spent a while making the batter. i don't think i was much of a help, because other than not being able to cook to save my life i also can't bake to save my life.
the 1st batch was nice, the 2nd batch had large chocolate chunks but it was poured too thickly so the middle was a bit uncooked.
so xy ended up taking the 1st batch and we took the 2nd batch home.
i eat anything with chocolate inside anyway.
and we fought for the chocolate chunks. (: because half-melted chocolate chunks are absolutely <3.

while waiting for the brownies to bake, we went for a house tour. XD
then we sat around the table in the kitchen and talked about jc and dreams and bl and complicated familial structures.

shihui's brother was dao-ing us!(:
but if i was him i would dao us too.
he probably thinks we're a bunch of weird people.

xy dropped this bouncy ball out of the 3rd floor balcony window.
then we went to the 2nd floor near the roof to find it.
it actually flew out and turned more than 90 degrees to land in the garden.

then we looked at shihui's photo book in which she and her sister insults each other via the photo captions.

shihui's ahma makes fantatastic fried noodles and chili!

when i get the pictures i will post some of them here.


after that we climbed 90 steps to go to liang court's kino to look for insane's animage. (but don't have)
the counter staff had a cool armband!(:

then we took the mrt all the way to jurong east to go see the new jurong point (jp 2), which had this book rental shop.
turned out to be quite expensive.
went around the new place, but it mostly contains the newer clothes and food stores, since the old jurong point has all the neccesities already, i guess.
so we ended up in comics connection as usual.

then i took a lovely ride on the lovely north-east line home at peak hour. (took me 1 hour and 20 minutes to get home, and the 238 bus queue went across half the interchange)
i think my bag wafted brownies when i opened it on the train. oops.


also, insane has found this place!
comment, please! :D
i don't dare to advertise shamelessly so a lot of people didn't notice. sorry!


han dan meng is in the straits times life section!
uh ... don't ask.
the dr chua mentioned in the article is yiyi's dad!
:D


next up, junning's birthday party.
see you all there!
