LAST DAY OF JULAAAAAY~~~~~~~~

Don't make promises when you're joyful. 
Don't reply when you're sad. 
Don't make decisions when you're angry. 

People that know so little about you always have so much to say about you.

Tough job, tough day, tough world. 
Life is not always sweet. 
That's life!~

You should never have to change yourself so that someone will like you. 
If you do, that person isn't worth your time. 

If you want something you've never had, then you've got to do something you've never done.

LOL. So I was saying yesterday that I'm gonna make 2 diys everyday for the remaining holidays.... lol so much commitment and dedication I made there.... only ended up making 1 today! :P Made sticky date pudding! XD

Was meant to go to the Dharma Night tonight at the temple, but it was hell rainy and windy and cold, 'rents were like ceebs driving you there, there's always next time la di da all the excuses they could think of..... so at the end, I was like oh wells... :P

So ya!

Think I at least made an effort in pouring my heart out writing this post... I guess? haha XD

Ciao!!!!

Love,
Velene xoxoxo

So.... what did I get up to today?

.....

In fact... it's nothing that special..

No outings whatnot :P

But... a baking day it is! :)

Attempted to make pasta-tuna bake and pandan sponge cake!!!! Trying to make at least 2 diys (cooking-related of course haha :P) in these remaining holidays haha :P Plan for tomorrow: making 2 sweets aka desserts hehe ;) I won't spoil the surprise for you guys n gals first... I'll do so promptly tomorrow haha! XDD So make sure y'all come n check out this page tomorrow night!! ;)

Didn't took a photo of the pasta-tuna bake cos..... it was all devoured before I can take a shot of it... but it looked nothing special (in my opinion).. just typical kinds :P

However.........

The pandan sponge cake took a completely different turnover aka unexpected results.... yet pleasing at the same time haha :P

Let me tell y'all what is this exciting news about.....

So I usually make those pandan sponge cake following from a recipe.... but today... my mum was like make moreee! Cos my family LOVES pandan cake! :P like no jokes haha.... So I was like okay... let's double the recipe......

And off I did....

.... then the result came out with: *shown below*

At the start (aka the top two pictures), I was getting excited as it turned out alright.... just a bit tad bigger from the normal size and also more rounder like a mushroom base haha :P...... then the moment of truth came out when I sliced it :P I gawped at start.... I was like oh no, it's not completely cooked yet... but then I saw steam coming out.... that technically meant... it's cooked, done, viola etc etc... I touched it... yes... it's hard..... but why so... did it looked like this? There's really a certain distinct two layers in the cake, the top, yes, really does look like what I wanted to be - a sponge cake! But then, the bottom layer, on the other hand.... totally do not look like a sponge cake. at. all..... my mum said it looked like those typical malaysian kuih/kueh... it sure does.... and taste like it too! Miracle haha! A combination of cake and kuih/kueh! BINGO! XDD Twas a really random discovery from baking today!!!! :)

If we can only encounter each other rather than stay with each other, then I truly wish we had never encountered.

Don't over-complicate things. If you hold them too tightly, they would shatter and your hands would hurt.
