Been wanting to bake for soooooooooo damn long ever since I was little, when I see my cousin baking cookies at home.
Gave up the idea when I return to 148 and stay, because there is no oven for baking..
Then when me and Hubby just got together, he knew that when I'm nua-ing at home, I can no need eat one so he bought me one toaster oven, for me to make lazy meal when I'm at home..
Many times I told him I wanna bake cookies, but didn't really make it because thinking of all the equipment and stuff I need to buy just kinda turn me off.. lol.
And now that I've all the free time, with a big oven in our apartment.. How can I not bake! I'm like suddenly poisoned by the cookie thoughts! I found a recipe online, wrote down all the things I need to buy on a piece of paper and pooof! I walk all the way to City Centre and buy all the stuff needed at one go!
Walk 3-4Hours with this heavy bag is no joke..
11.50am I left house, reached CC at 12.30pm..
Meet Hubby for lunch..
Then went to Poundland, spend like 1 and 1/2 hour shopping in there, get most of the equipments needed for my baking and grab some xmas decos as well. Everything for 1pound ($2SGD), very hard to resist!
By this time the bag already quite heavy and bulky..
Walk 15min to Saint'sbury to get the remaining baking equipment and some baking ingredients (mixing bowl, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, chocolate chips etc), spend around 40min getting all these.
Then I couldn't tahan the load anymore so I quickly stop looking around and go home, spend another 40min walking home.
I estimate I walked for like 4hours, with at least 3hours holding on to this heavy bag!
How the hell did I manage, the cookie thoughts were really powerful!
BUT I know I definitely won't do it if I'm in SG, because it will be freaking hot and I will perspire like shit!
Over here the weather is dry and so cold nowadays, walking so much makes me feel warm.. but the heavy load also kind of killed me lah.. lol.
All the loots!
After seeing this picture I thought that its all worthwhile.. lol.
Mixing mixing... without the electric mixer.
Burn some fats and earn the cookies!
Hubby say looks like famous amos kind lol.
My chocolate chips cookies! Taste good leh!
Look at his satisfied face haha!
I made total 35 cookies for my first attempt.
