HELLO!! I'm back! With new interface of my website, and new recipes to bring to you guys! Sorry that I am away for 2 months or so. I was overseas in the UK and East of Europe. Studying, and of course, travelling at the same time. Pretty amazing trip, I would say. Experienced almost everything that a traveller would face, met new and awesome people, missed flight, missed train, e.t.c.. And also, trying all the goodies around Europe! Pastries and bakes of course!
From Hummingbird Bakery, Crumbs and Dollies in London, to Pierre Hermé, Des Gâteaux et du Pain in Paris and many many others, I believed that all these fats that has grown in me is definitely worth it. Maybe it is also time for me to get back in my exercising and say hello to health again. (I brought my running shoes to Europe, and of course, I didn't do any running. HA! Horrible guy.)
Ooh, another thing, I officially graduated from my school! My last semester's results are better than what I would expect, but it is still not enough to pull me up one grade. (Stingy markers! >.<)
Anyway, my cravings for baking have not died down even though I am overseas. I made pancakes over there, not baked though. Recipe by one of the B&B hosts that I stayed with. Fluffy American Style Pancakes. I know right, I am in UK, but American Pancakes. Haha! Sometimes you never know where good recipes come, so, I was still glad that I asked for the recipe from her. Will post the recipe some time later.
I got back to my home on my birthday itself, so firstly, Happy Belated Birthday to myself. (Shameless guy!) Had a simple one at home, but a surprised one on the flight back. Took Emirates, and my friend decided to be cheeky, went to tell the cabin crews that it was my birthday. They were so nice and sweet! Made me a card, with photos of themselves, with all signatures of the crews, including the Captain (YEAH!), drew me coloured Happy Birthday Alvin on a blank paper, free cakes, souvenirs, and took polaroid for me, my friend and his family as a whole. Fly Emirates!
