Perhaps I am Going Mental...

So... I went out earlier today and got myself some serious therapy...

1. Shopping for Clothes.

2. Shopping for Food.

Pix...


Me doing some gardening. Demam. Ujan plaks tu... Tempias. Sambil gardening kat balcony aku pakai baju ujan...

Me sans my hair extension... Next month I'll try something crazier...

From My Kitchen- Famous Amos Cookies :D

Ingredients:

1/2 pound butter, softened

3/4 cups granulated sugar

3/4 cups light brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 eggs

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

4 oz. chopped pecans (Cannot find, substituted with Hazelnut!)

18 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions(Huh? Left? Right? Turn Back? Go Straight?)

The Method:

Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, eggs, baking soda and salt in large mixing bowl (32" Stainless-steel Mixing bowl rm10.90 kat kedai plastik Kelibang!).


Combine the flour gradually (otherwise you'll have a big snow storm (YAY!) in your kitchen!) (Damn penat mengacau siot- I think I should invest in a food-processor...)

Stir in pecans.


Stir in chocolate chips.


Take tablespoons of batter and drop onto ungreased baking sheet. (This is where the recipe writer screwed up big time!!!)


Bake in a preheated 375°F oven (350°F if you're using an electric oven) for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown.

Check along the way because every oven is different! Let stand for 2 minutes and then remove to cool.

The Mixture... Tastes Damn Nice!

Round 1: Test Flight

Uh... They're getting an uncontrolled "hard-on"? Alamak! Dia kembang semahu hati nih... Akakaka... I laughed my cute lil' derriere off when I saw this...

First baking session : Famous Amos or Ugly Amos (Tastes nice tho...)

Second time around, I'm smarter... Half a tea-spoon of mixture makes 1 cute bite-size cookies...


Size comparisson: Both are bite size... Left: Ning Baizura Bite-size, Right Man Bai Bite-size.

Spent almost RM300 on 2 Pants, 1 shirt, 1 belt. Sighs... But the good news is, once upon a time, not long time ago... I cannot fit into anything below L size... Now I'm M sized! Waaaa....

Ok. Need to go out and get Ms. CT Anim... Will bring some cookies for her... Later will post her response or comment...
