bakin'

Submitted my Toxicology assignment this morning.

Was deciding if to head out today and I did in the end. Went to West Bromwich cos I wanted to buy the mixed nuts with Tesco and see leggings at Primark..and also get cards from M&S.

I wore my new boots for the first time today...felt comfy..only thing was my feet sweat a lot inside..haha..I'm happy with my buy! Prob wear them tmr too. I guess I'll wear them if no forecast of rain and the other pair if rainy!

Have been wanting to take a pic of this structure...guess what this is!

Anyway, I ended up getting cards from another shop cos M&S didn't have much choices. Not many clothes further reduced also. Realised that branch of M&S didn't have kids section. Then went Primark and got myself a maroon turtle neck top cos it was only £3! Too bad no more brighter colours..maybe can see the other branch in town tmr. Leggings also..don't have the colour I wanted. Anyway I have been wearing leggings with skirt and my boots and it's warm enough! Tried on jeggings but they felt like leggings too cos also made of cotton! So I thought I might as well get leggings la..bought 2 pairs of angora wool socks too..in case I decide to wear my reebok shoes or I can even wear them with my boots.

 Then went to Tesco cos I was thinking of having steak for dinner tonight. Wah..the steak was about £4 -£5/piece. Then I saw this and got it since it was £2.

Bought a bag of granny smiths since I was thinking of making apple pie (the bag had 8 and was £1). Headed home and started making my apple pie...pastry made with lard. The crust is really flaky and crisp! But then forgetful me forgot to add salt..hehe..anyway, the smell when baking also different! I think the pastry will go well with savoury pies. Mum and yiyi, u should try making pastry with lard instead of butter!! Btw, I didn't spread egg on the top..haha..guess what I spreaded it with! Hehe..learnt a "trick" from tv show.

And then cooked my dinner! When cooking then I realised that "grilled steak" I bought is actually made of minced beef la! They shaped until like steak lor..alamak..I think I was also blur. But then it's good also cos I only needed to use fork to eat!

Anyway L is back!! Oh..then C bought dinner from the chinese takeaway down the road...and L offered her chicken curry for me to try. OMG!!! I told her I think even u can cook better than tt. It tastes weird! Not any chinese style curry I know of. C had egg fried rice (with no visible egg) and chow mien. Maybe I'll cook chow mien one day..but to us, chow mien is just stir fry noodles lor!

Oh ya, I was packing my drawer and found the sewing kit I brought! I thought I remembered bringing one..haha..oh well..good to have spare. When you look for it, you can't find it but when you don't look for it, it appears!

Will be doing some sightseeing with SK whole of tmr...I'm quite excited! Hehe..
