Wake Up and Smell the Cake

Last Friday I was craving some tomyum creamy pasta from Pastamania. I thought I'd have that for my me time lunch. But. I got turned off at the queue with lots of students. Urgh. How much pocket money do these kids get?! So I went NTUC instead and got ingredients for Sunday's experiment meal. I couldn't find much tomyum pastes, which I thought was weird, so I settled for NTUC brand paste. Didn't get any seafood either cos I don't fancy seafood that much. The darling daughter had 3 hours nap, which left me with much time to iron clothes, sweep the floor, cook the pasta sauce and marinate chicken breasts to be eaten with the pasta (I didn't put meat into the sauce). I cooked for dinner for myself and Husband, with agarations as usual since there's no recipe per se.

Today my baby boy is celebrating Children's Day in school and everyone was to bring goodies or food. I made brownies for him to bring since they are easy to transport and they're chocolatey. Kids like that right? I tried another recipe, one which is more trustworthy. Hershey's! I had Hershey's cocoa to use up too. It is a perfect go to brownie recipe! I don't usually come across 4 egg brownie recipes but that made this brownies more moist and less prone to being hard in case of overbaking. I made one batch yesterday morning before work as a test, and since it was good, I made another this morning but with nuts and some chocolate chips for the office and our home. This is husband approved! :) Two batches worth of brownies Hershey's Brownies 225g unsalted butter 1/4 tsp salt 4 eggs 2 cups sugar 3/4 cup cocoa powder 1 cup flour 1/2 tsp baking powder Melt the butter and mix with the salt and sugar. Add the eggs one at a time and incorporate int
