1st bake!

Yet another rainy day but the sun came out for about 10min today. Anyway, today washed my sheets and quilt cover. No fun changing bedsheets for big beds and esp when it is flatsheet. Oh well, anyway, put it on heaters to dry (this method works better than hanging them around). My clothes dry v fast when I put then on the heater! Today didn't go to church...felt sluggish and it was rainy..I'm pretty sure it was v cold out there today.

Use my giffgaff (telco I'm changing to on Fri) SIM to call ah ma today..oops..she was expecting my call last week but I didn't activate my giffgaff yet so couldn't call unless my relative with viber was around. So glad tt I managed to call with my airtime credit.

This morning tried making soft boil egg...but unsuccessful. Thought it was covered in boiled water long enough cos the shell had cracked (the egg was from the cupboard). Anyway I popped it into microwave oven to cook it more.

Then a while later L woke up and asked if I wanted some chicken cos she's thinking of doing a roast today. I thought she meant at night but actually no lor..she started preparing ard 12+pm and it was ready prob close to 2pm...and she calls it dinner. I still can't quite get my head around. Anyway, I helped to prepare too..and so here are the pics! 

The roast chicken and those at the side are Yorkshire Puddings

Broccoli and cauliflower cheese and at the back is broccolini

My lunch + dinner

Oh ya, while helping to prepare the food, C vacuumed the living rm and L said I wanted mine vacuumed too..but of course, I paiseh la..so ran up and vacuumed my own room and toilet. Anyway, here's my little mint plant...don't think it's growing that well cos no sun lately. But I've been using it to make mint tea.

Oh yes, I found a spot to be my table and chair in my room! Ta-da!!

And so after watching some dramas online, started to bake my German Apple Cake. It turned out different from when I baked in SG. Well, the crust is harder (but I enjoyed eating the crust..just that it's hard to cut) and cinnamon taste not as strong. But both L and C liked it...even Poppy!!!! Oh myy..she kept wanting more..btw L fed her, not me! L said "dogs shouldn't like cake..she likes yours!" I don't know to be happy or not..dogs like my cake?! Anyway I think cos the eggs not as big as those in SG though I've already bought medium sized ones..either that or cos I used food processor instead of usual cake mixer so turned out diff. But L says maybe oven too hot so turned out crusty on top. Or maybe is the settings..oh well, at least it's edible. Packed some for uni tmr.

As you can see, I overturned it cos crust was hard to cut downwards

2 full day weeks of uni starting tomorrow. Next Fri got to present on research topic outline already =X I've an idea of the research study but no idea how to frame it. Hope the weather clears up a bit for the next 2 weeks else v sian to go in uni in such weather.

Not sure if I mentioned before but people here use "Are you alright?" or "U ok?" as "hello" which I thought was a bit strange cos when I get asked that, it's either cos I'm not looking my usual self. Haha..just like Aussies greet by saying "How are ya doing?"
