Wake Up and Smell the Cake

Just now my mum and I went to 3 places in search for pineapple tart jam. We're going to make pineapple tarts!! :) Hahaha macam we celebrate Chinese New Year. There was only one ingredient left to buy, which was the pineapple paste. My mum said the shop she always buy from didn't have stock, so we went to see if NTUC and Cold Storage have it. But then! Disappointed lah! Both don't have lor! Cold Storage ran out of stock, NTUC didn't even have it I guess. Wah so many people making pineapple tarts meh!! Cannot be lah! Even during the Hari Raya period the pineapple paste wasn't out of stock. Then we went Chong Pang my favourite pasar to buy groceries and to see if really the stock hasn't come in yet. And lo and behold! We found it!! Hahaha. At first we found pineapple paste of another brand, but since we really needed it, the brand didn't matter lah. We're going to modify the paste anyway. Then!! At another rack, my mum found the brand we usually buy! Wah my

Baking again! Haha. This time it's pineapple tarts supposedly for Hari Raya on the 31st, but I think the tarts will all disappear by then. Today my sister helped out! This was actually baked on Wednesday, but I thought I'll just include it here anyway. Today's batch of pineapple tarts! My sister and I made gingerbread men! Macam we celebrate Christmas lydat. Haha! Actually they're not gingerbread lah, it's the short-crust pastry used for the pineapple tarts. Since we didn't have the mould, we cut the dough using the knife instead. Haha. The prettier one's mine! ;p My sister trying to transfer her short-crust man to the tray. She had to try a few times before getting a nicely cut short-crust man. And then! She had difficulty transferring her pastry man to the tray. Hahah. Our finally decorated short-crust men and cat before baking! Only had almond and choc chips lah, so deco was minimal. Didn't have choc rice or those colourful beads Carcar
