Kota Kinabalu, -- This is only an extension series of my baking project. Filling my time at home with some baking activities. Anyway, it’s part of my practicing and experiencing of using icing and fondant icing. I know, I may need more practice and be more creative in designing and decorating the cakes. If you ask me for a piece of cakes…well, I only had a piece of it cause the rest finished by my kids and nephews. Pix for your viewing pleasure only.

Practice makes perfect...

Kota Kinabalu, -- Baking becoming one of my hobbies. When baking something and it's turn out to be almost perfect, what a smile in a face. I love baking cake. I love to see beautiful decorated cake. But, I don't have the talent to decorate the cake I baked. Anyway, you can see some of the cakes in the pix that I have taken which I baked them myself. Chocolate cake with almond, Butter cake with durian paste.

And...last night I made cup cakes for my kids. Oh dear, what a mess, they can't wait for the icing so, just do the droping icing for the pix. I am still practicing for baking and decorating the cakes. Will show off in this blog again for the next series of my baking.

Gardening…great activity

Tuaran, Thurs. June 11, 2009 – Gardening would be a great activity for the family. Imagine whatever we plant in the garden, grow and grow as what we want it to be. And, when we grow vegetables, we can enjoy the revenue. Even more, we can share them with the others. My sister very much proud of her vegetable garden, which she initiate together with her hardworking husband and sons. She plants mostly local vegetables such as “sayur ubi”, “sayur manis”, “kangkung” and etc.

My aunts and cousin, enjoying themselves in the garden. I’m not sure, my cousin is helping in plucking the veges or just do some possing for the gallery. They really enjoying themselves in the garden and encourage others to do the same. My sister’s even suggested, for me to plant vegetables in my backyards. Well, I did already but actually to be honest, my servant did it ha..ha…now I have small vegetables garden, in my backyard with some “cili padi”, “pokok kasturi”, “serai”, “sayur manis” and some forgot the names.

So, how about you all…
