Hiatus...

Dear Valued Customers

It is with much sadness that I have to stop taking orders for the time being as I am not feeling too well.

Therefore I was advised to take a short break till my health is 'back' before I start taking in orders again.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Lots of loves and regards

Why Pig in a Blanket...?

I like simple recipes that don't require a lot of unique ingredients that I won't use all the time.

I love trying new things and strice to make something new at least once a week.

These "Pig-in-a-blanket" are so simple to make yet so good.

I'll admit that they aren't that good for you but it's not like I eat them every day. Pigs in a blanket provide a delicious, hearty breakfast and also make a delicious brunch.

Pigs in a Blanket @ Wrapped Sausage

1 packet pastry crust (I bought the ready-made in the supermarket)

1 package cheese chicken cocktail sausages

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 egg (for brushing)

Preheat oven to 250 degrees.

Dust work surface with flour.

Roll out your puff pastry and slice into two strips.

Place cocktail sausage and shredded cheddar cheese on the puff pastry strip. Roll it gently.

Repeat with remaining strips and sausages....

Slightly beaten the egg, just before placing in oven, brush the pastry with egg...
...place on a lined baking sheet.
Bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown

I wonder, why on earth it has to be called "Pig-in-a-Blanket"..??
...why not "toad in a hole"?
or just simply call it "wrapped sausage"?

Maymun....I Love You

To my daughter, Maymun Nalubega..
Sorry Mummy not able to join your 'party' with your friends yesterday ...

...phew..... 'my messenger' covers everything that I wanted to say....

Happy Birthday.....
Mummy loves you...

.. Mak Lang, please help bake a cake for us...

The phone rang: "Mak Lang, we want to order cake for Mama's birthday tapi tak ada budget. Can you teach us how to bake??" - how very sweet and kesian pulak kat my nieces & nephew.

Since the kids say they want to surprise their Mama, therefore I could not bake the cake their home. So I had to do it from my house, baked the cakes the night before, layered it at night and finished the decoration in the morning so at tea time the kids could surprise her.

Vanila cake is one of my sister's favorites.

I made a simple two-layer vanila cake and the colors are white and pastel marine blue with tiny roses in pink/burgandy (roses are her favorite flowers).

When I arrived at their home, hiding the cake from their Mother (my sister) was the hardest part but when she saw the cake, the surprised look and happiness on her face really made the kids (and me) happy. They loved the cake and I got a extra BIG HUG from the kids for making their mother happy - which really was the best...! :)

To my sister, Niza... Happy Birthday..

This only happens Once in a 1,000 Years....

Sweet child of my heart!

This day, your day of birth...!

"Happy Birthday" means much more than have a happy day...

Within these words lie lots of things Mummy never get to say.

It means Mummy loves you first of all.

It means... you mean a lot to me and that I'm proud of you...

How can I make this time of telling special...

...when I tell you that I love you every day?

How can I tell you that you are my angel ...

...when you know you are my angel anyway?

But most of all...

...it means that Mummy is thinking of Your Happiness on this, your day of birth..., in fact everyday...

...Mummy loves you... Happy 16th Birthday girl..

...small little birds told Mummy that you had a great time with your friends at school and hostel...

Happy 16th Birthday Aisyah...

When it comes to wishing your loved ones on his or her birthday, originality and uniqueness is the key to make your dear one feel surprised and delighted. It's hard to put in to words what you want to express to the birthday boy or girl on that special day, but once you tell them how wonderful you feel on their birthday, the expression on their face with bright smile and cheerful look makes the day all the more special.

It's the birthday every girl looks forward to -her sweet 16th.

To my niece, Aisyah....Happy 16th Birthday...

...mmmuuaaahh from Mak Lang...!

...the long silence (sort of...)

Happy New Year readers!

Sorry it's been a while since I've posted here, but for those who have been following on FB, I've been probably a bit TOO chatty. Apart from not feeling well for the last couple of weeks, I have been busy hacking various things. Actually, more like focusing on some things in my life, and clearing my head slowly. Though it's still a bit stuffed with various other things floating around, prodding me.

Enough of that... Here is a set of birthday cupcakes ordered by a filial Mommy for her beloved girls who were turning 8 recently and having a very girlie pink party for their special day.

All she wanted was some roses...

...Vanilla Cupcakes with vanilla buttercream frosting..

...lots of pink, buttercream roses...!

Happy Birthday Anis & Atiqah...

... and...thanks Abriza for the repeat order..
