MeMe - Before I was a Mom

Thanks Baking Fiends United for passing on this Meme to me, its the first one I've gotten and I'm really excited about it... So here it is....




Before I was a mom, I am LBT.... Before I was a mom, I've never frequent the kids department stores... Before I was a mom, I dont check the labels of the food I'm buying... Before I was a mom, I would cook everything spicy... Before I was a mom, I dun know who is Barney... Before I was a mom, I've never handled babies and I've never thought I could do it...


Before I was a mom, I never knew that all I've ever wanted to be, is being a mom...



I would like to pass this MEME to another pretty mom... Caroline @ Ting Family

Chicken Sausage Bun

Meet my chicken sausage buns. I so pleased with it. They are simply so delicious when freshly out of the oven.

I've burnt my mixer again... my 3rd one since i started baking. I've been baking for almost a year already. When I started, I couldn't even bake a simple sponge cake.. I looked back on all my previous bakes, gave myself a pat on the shoulder and hope I get better in the years to come.

And I must also thank people (you know who you are) who have put up with some of my lousy bakes along the way... :) And many fellow food bloggers whom I have learned so much from... THANK YOU!






Roast Chicken Salad

I was feeling like having salad for dinner one day, and came up with this Roast Chicken salad served with Japanese dressing.

Actually, I cheated, I bought lettuces and black pepper roast chicken thighs from Cold Storage... and simply put them together, topped with some walnuts I managed to extract from my box of Banana nut crunch cereals. I wonder if I could still label this as Home Cook Meals.. hehe...

My family have a tradition of having lunch on the 2nd day of CNY, and its always at the same restaurant... we will take turn to buy. Last year was our turn, this year is Mark's. I have to put this down for record, cos every year, we will be asking... who's turn izzit now?
