i've been BAD!!

omg...today i've been real bad!! this afternoon mum n dad was asleep, bro go to work..so in the kitchen...i made my own marshmallow!!^^ heee~~

i found a recipe on the net..rupenye making marshmallow is very easy lar..all u need is gelatine+sugar...n corn syrup to enhance the flavour n texture, but it is not essential..i myself dnt put in the corn syrup cuz i cant find it in the kitchen..haha..driving to jusco will take at least 20 minutes le..malaslah..plus, since when do i have a car? wakaka!!^^


ok ok now i'll stop talking nonsense. Back to the marshmallow, hav u ever tried making marshmallow urself? well if u hvnt then u really should try lar!! really fun taw! n very easy i promise!^^ my favourite part is beating the syrup into thick, creamy, icing-like paste..it's like making royal icing lol..


oh ya..after pouring the mixture into the container, bcoz i like the texture so much (n no one is around) i scraped out the remainder using my finger, n (instinctively) put it into my mouth~~hahaha is tht a bad thing to do? but i can't help it lar..when u try u'll know how hard it is to resist the temptation..dont blame me plz...T_T


oh ya tht marshmallow mixture is REALLY DELICIOUS!! it is generally sweet of course, but also slightly salty n have a hint of vanilla..the texture is almost like fresh cream on cakes, but thicker. And the smell! ohh...i feel like i want to finish those in the container too!! i think marshmallow taste a lot better when it is still in cream form lah (do u actually call tht 'cream form'?? entahlah..). To note, though i put many photos of confectionery here, i'm not a fan these of sugary stuff. But this marshmallow cream is undeniably delicious.


The recipe says i have to wait for at least 3 hours, or even one day for the marshmallow to set, so i have to wait lah, its been six hours but it hasn't got firm enough..do i really have to wait for one day?? wish me luck ya!!^^

bad guys










hehehe...here they are...
these r the enemies i've been talking about..
they r marsmallows lol..aren't they lovely??
but i warn u arr..dnt be fool by how they look..
these cuties may look innocent,
but in truth they r evil! pure evil!! they tricked me...(sobs)
wanna know how? its a long story..and rather sad..
actually...i can't really blame them lol..
it happened last year, around february..
my brother bought lots of them..
so tht he dnt miss the crazy offer by Jusco..
but he ate only a handful..
me, instead, finish them all in just a week..
the very next morning after i swallow the last piece,
i saw Doraemon in the mirror.
n he stayed there for more thn half a year haiz..
thank god now he had disappeared..
[moral of the story: dnt be like me]
these creative photos r frm marthastewart.com

ice temptation ^^




















oooohhh...ice-cream......
my favourite dessert ever..even in cold days..^^
u know when i was little i was kinda freaked-out by
the mint flavoured ice-cream, cuz: it's green in colour..
looked somewhat creeepy to me lol..
(especially after reading Which Is Witch hehe)
but now i think i'm addicted to it larr haha!
anyway vanilla is still my all-time-favourite..
and i'm not really into strawberry..
thnx to Better Homes & Gardening and Ghirardelli for this wonderful
(and yummy-looking) pics!
