Exhaustion = Satisfaction

When I'm working really hard, I don't usually notice how tired I am until I sit down.  Today, I think I stood up for about 4 hours running frantically from one side of the kitchen to the other, tending to the fluffy butter, the preheating oven and the simmering ganache. Haha.  When I sat, I felt TIRED. Then I sat to decorate.

Yes. I BAKED AGAIN.

Dearest Bleb, I love you lots! I hope you have a REALLY nice birthday today - showered with gifts and really, really nice heartfelt messages, cos y ou deserve it! ♥ 

Before the cake looked beautiful- it was ugly as.  I covered it up with ganache.
Blob
TADA. It's like make up on a face. ITS BEAUTIFUL-fake, BUT BEAUTIFUL. Hahaha
Added some err. eyeliner.. LOL ITS WHITE CHOCOLATE FUDGE IN VANILLA. :) Yummo  When I was testing stuff out, I kept on writing on the back of my hand and licking off the words HAHA. It was so nice.
THen I shoved it in the fridge under a wok cover. :D 
CAKE DETAILS:  Chocolate sponge sandwiching some er peaches and coated in ganache icing.  Plus marshmellows.
I added a marshmello heart but it fugified the cake- so I removed it, and like a pimple after being squeezed, it left a scar- so yeah. If you look carefully you'll see different patterns in the icing. Oh well.  Better than the disgusting heart. Haha
After making all this, I walked into my room and got camera flashed by my sister. She took a photo of me POST baking.  Sweaty and ew, but satisfied. Yes.
Doesn't look too bad eh.  Hehe. A few hours earlier...

Japanese- I am so attractive in this photo. (hi cat!)
Last day in Jap with Mr Lowcock :(  Btw If you look carefully, you'll see the absentees- Chris, Jane and Shaun drawn on the board.  Shaun, if you have a complaint about your face- blame Kelvin. He drew it yuck. Chris, Jane, if you really like your faces- pay compliments to me ;)
Japanese Ext- Last lesson :) Ahh I'll miss these food/fun-filled afterschool lessons. They're always quite entertaining, often filled with debate between Yoon and the girls. Sexist a-hole :)  Funny stuff.  I looks big in this photo... Teehee perspective. I like looking pig. It means I'm significant ;)
Yesterday's photos from bio-
Everyone's bringing cameras now! :D Yay
Front Rowers.

I don't think I have that much to say now. Except Happy Birthday to both SIM and YUN. I LOVE YOU BOTH LOTS- HAVE A GOOD ONE!!!

To everyone else, thanks for the uber nice comments these few days. It's really turning me into an arrogant baker. Hehehe. But I'm going to stop again soon. My dad can't stand the sight of chocolate everywhere. He's becoming obese (and should stop eating altogether..jokes) and needs to cut down on food consumption- esp cakes/chocolates. Lol.

I always bake cake and cookies because I only have a flat tray, a round springform tin and a cupcake tray. I DON'T HAVE A BROWNIE TRAY. WUT! My mum will never get me one.

M: *sai hey lah! Gor di yeh dou mm how sik gah* (don't waste your breath- those things aren't nice to eat)
B: O_O

Usually, I can't come up with a good response. I'm shocked. As if brownies aren't nice. They're like FLAT SOFT CAKES MAN. Usually chocolate and nutty too *drools*. I love brownies. :)  Bake me some Lee-Anne. I know you're a genius at this stuff.

WOOOO

So this ends my crazy woman-in-the-kitchen post.

I hope you all enjoyed the pictures (and I hope some of you will enjoy the cake tomorrow)

KEEPSAFE, TAKECARE, AND SNAPSOMEPICS

Oh and send me your babyphotos everyone in R09 for final assembly!

mmmmm time to eat left over marshmellos

Nice fotografs. The cake looks quite nice. Furthermore, in regards to the first photo of "A few hours earlier", I see you're finally showing your TRUE form.
