Biscuits for Mid-autumn

Mid-autumn day is just around the corner, and today, i baked some mooncake biscuits. I love this buscuits very much, and i bake it every mid-autumn. It is so delicious (yummy yummy~~). This biscuits is easy to bake, but it takes long time.

200g golden syrup

1/4 tsp bicarbonate soda

3/4 tbsp alkaline water (i put less)

50g corn oil

(B)

300g plain flour

Thick soya sauce (for colour)

Combine all the ingredients (A) together, and allow it to rest for 4-5 hours. After that, add soya sauce and stir well. Fold in shifted flour gradually and mix evenly from a smooth, soft dough. Do not knead, let dough rest for another 6-7 hours (long time, is it?)

Devide dough into small portions, dust with flour and press into figure mould, knock out and place on greased baking tray and bake in preheated oven at 160 degrees C for 8 mintues. Remove tray from the oven and leave for 1-2 minutes. Brush biscuits with egg glaze and bake again 6-7 minutes or untill golden.

Fun but tired weekend

Had a fun and busy weekend. Went to the Genting Highland on Friday. Had a lot fun there, first time for the Pirate Ship (it was so nice, hehe). I bought an ice-cream from Baskin Robins, but who knows, my brother droppped the ice-cream on the floor (oh.. the whole ice cream, and i just only had a little bit), but left only the ice-cream cone. The ice-cream guy looked at us, and asked "the ice-cream dropped on the floor?". And i answered him said "Yes". He said nevermind, and asked my brother give him the ice-cream cone, he gave us another new scope of ice-cream (thank you so much). We drove to KL at about 7pm, had a dinner in Ampang (it was so nice, yum yum~~). Stayed one night at my uncle's house. It was good to met up with my grandpa, uncles, aunties and my cousins. Thought i can have a good rest there, but who knows, my grandpa's pet (a bird, a noisy bird) made so much noises early in the moring, 6am. It really woke my parents and me up. I asked my dad, can i tie up it's mouth so that it will stop making noises. My dad said don't have to do that, just open it's cage, then everything will be fine (haha, if open the cage, it will fly out of the cage, and this is the fastest way to stop the noise). Went to the Sungai Wand and Mid Valley Megamall. Did my shopping. Before home, we had a great dinner at Teppanyaki (oh yum yum~~~ it was so so so so so delicious). Drove back home at about 9.10pm, arrived home at 12.25pm. I was so tired because didn't sleep well for 2 days.

True love

Read a news today, it was quite touching, a couple from 2 different coutries got married. They knew each others from the net, the guy, 34 years old, from Swiss, and the girl, 31 years old, from Johore, Malaysia. Because of the power of love, they are now husband and wife even they was apart from each others before this. Swiss ----> Malaysia, that's really far. I can't believe it when i first read the news. Maybe i really can't imagine "the power of true love". Know what, the guy learn chinese because of the girl, to comunicate with his paretns in law. That is touching. They created a web site, (http://www.ashley-and-bruno.com/), posted their photos (so sweet). Now i know, there is true love everywhere, even on the net.

Meeting with friends (1st day of September)

Just came back from a drink with friends. I had a ice blended soursop (that was really sweet, :( really sweet). Met up with some old friends. I already didn't meet up with some of them for few months. Good to know that they are all doing good. Oh yeah Mr. Foo, you seems so sweet with your girlfriend, that's good to know that, and i am happy for you, hope you really can save up the money, and marry your girlfriend soon. But as we said just now, you have to let us know earlier before you want to marry, because we need to save up too, for the "ang pao" you both (haha). Talking about marriage, my friend asked me when i will get marriage, i told him, 20-09-2009, know why? Because it will be 20092009, isn't it easier to remember?? hahahaha..... Just kidding, it's hard to find a guy to date with sylvia, about the question from my friend, i guess better forget about it. We was talking about the holidays in October, hopefully we can have a BBQ during the holidays.
P/s:- Thanks Wei How for the treat....

Oh ya, another good thing about today is.. i already got rid from flu... yooohoooo!!!!!!!!!!! hehe.
