WOOOOTS!! What's the first thing that comes into your mind when you hear the word 'festival'?
CAKE!!! COOKIES!!!And this leads us to baking~ yay! I LOVE to bake XD
natsume and I went to KaoCHO's place to bake for our upcoming festival. made 3 types of snacks in 3 days.
The first one on the first day didnt involve baking though. It was cornflakes mixed with chololate. We dealt with a variety of chocolate flavours and finished up 3 jumbo sized cornflakes packet O__O That's alot! oh yea! Ikurasu was with us too. But only for the first day.
On the second day, we baked cookies. To be more precise, we baked
6 different cookie flavours-
peanut butter,
double chocolate chunk,
chocolate chips,
'm & m',
oatmeal and
chocolate chips and oatmeal. I have to say that my favourites are
chocolate chips and
chocolate chips and oatmeal. Sorry to say, but my least favourited was
oatmeal. It's as hard as rock (just exaggerating =P) and not
chewy nor crunchy at all x___x it's sort of
'chunky'. Like it doesn't clump together when you bite them. Am i explaining this correctly...? my vocabulary usage is very bad T___T
On the third and final day, which was yesterday, we baked cakes!! LOADS of them.
7 cakes. heheheh. I know, we're insane... HAHAHAH! Had fun though. Except for the fact that I was unreasonably tired... bleh. There was
poppy seed flavour,
chocolate,
madeira,
double chocolate,
vanilla,
cheesecake and i can't remember the last one.... :
Overall, I had fun. :)
Thank you Kaoru.
LOTS OF LOVE TO YOU. although I didn't hug you goodbye this morning, it doesn't mean that I don't love you... At least i messed up your hair right? O__O
Lesson of the day: Practice makes perfect. As much as I would want to deny this saying, I can't. Why? Because I experienced it.
Edit: the oatmeal was actually good. After i put it in the fridge :D
