Delayed Birthday Post

Well.. this is a little late but wanna show some pics of what i made piggy for this birthday. Being the nice and totful girlfriend, i decided to give him a birthday breakfast suprise!Woke up at 630am to bake him his favourite banana chocolate chip cupcakes. Tot it would be good as a mini birthday cake. Popped in the bacon, sauages and tomatoes into the oven after that to grill. Packed everything and went off for the suprise.

Reached his place and quickly prepared the cake at the corridor....



I know... the candle a bit oversized!

Called him on his mobile. The groggy birthday boy picked up the phone

Me: Happy birthday!! Wake up wake up!!
Piggy: Huh?? But i wanna sleeeeeep.....
Me: It's your birthday! Wake up! I'm just outside ur house.
Piggy: No way!
Me: Yes!
Piggy: Cannot be...
Me: Yes!
Piggy: Okie.. prove it!
Me: (Rings the doorbell)
Piggy:!?!?!?!?

Sang him the birthday song as he smiled in his pyjamas.. looking so good. Blew off his candles. then said...

Piggy: So sweet... Eh.. but can i eat later? I wanna sleep samore.
Me:?!?!?!?!?!?



This was the breakfast. Really simple, especailly if you have an oven. Just need to pop them in and add some herbs to the tomatoes. They'll cook in the fat of the bacon and taste really awesome.

This breakfast kept him full all the way to lunch. Even though we were at the posh nosh Lawry's for dinner, i still felt that my breakfast was the best.. He he..

Daddy Made Breakfast

Everyone in my home likes to cook. Even angie will do the occasional egg frying and cake baking. To be honest, i cook like my dad. He loves to explore new stuff and takes old recipes and revamps them. Not that they turn out great all the time but he has a nack for cooking.

This is not the first time he made breakfast for us. He really loves french toast and would get up as early as 530am to make them before he goes off to the courts. I found the toasts really beautiful today so i decided to feature them on my blog. Used some straberries and added golden syrup. Wa Lah! I got a healthy 'daddy made' breakfast!!


Simple but satisfying



Emmmm... i love strawberries in my breakfast!!

Vanilla Cream Cheese Panna Cotta w/ Coffee Gelee

What a long name! It fits the long hours that i put into this 'ai4 xing1' dessert i made for piggy. He simply LOVES panna cotta (i tink he'd sell me for one... hehe.. just joking). But seriously, i started at 11pm(yes, in the dead of the night again) and finished at 230am. Phew! But it felt so good to see it turn out great!I think i was too kan qiong that the thing would not stay so i put extra gelatine. Turned out to be a tad too hard.


Think he was too eager to eat it. Pic turned out blur.

Piggy really loved it!! Out of the 5 cups that i made, he ate 3!! Wee.. and i tink dad ate one too. Well, i guess the last one is for me then. Will definately make again, but not in the dead of the night again......


Look at those beautiful layers!!
