Wake Up and Smell the Cake

If Junior mistakes a sealion for a seal, it's my fault haha. Only realised I got the animals mixed up after I wrote the letters.

Once again I did not step out of the house to get groceries. Yes, I'm such a procrastinator, I've been wanting to do it for a week now but everytime I just postpone. Monday's dinner was a result of the procrastination. You see, I've ran out of onions. And I only have a whole chicken in the fridge. So what did I do? Find a recipe where cooking doesn't involve any onions hahaha. Couldn't think of any cos onion is such an essential ingredient. So I thought of cooking with the next most essential ingredient - garlic! And I found this garlic chicken recipe ! I had a tahu kering set and that would be made into a simple soup dish, of which I added too much garlic. Hurhur. Note to self: never EVER use more than three cloves in a soup. It'll just be bitter.

With baby asking for milk every hour and sleeping for 30 minutes each nap, I needed a fast recipe, and one where I don't have to buy any ingredients, so I modified and made my very first cheesecake without recipe. Ingredients 2 packs cream cheese 1 tin (388g) condensed milk 4 tbsp flour 1 egg 1 tbsp vanilla essence Crust: 125g digestives + 50g butter Crush the digestives and mix with the melted butter. Press them onto the springform pan and bake at 170 degrees C for 8 minutes. Mix condensed milk and cream cheese. Then add in the egg, mix well.  Add flour and vanilla essence. Bake at 160 degrees C for about 45 to 50 minutes. Done! :) Haven't tasted it yet though hahahaha. But I'm sure it...
