THE FIRST DAY OF CNY 08

Gah!!! I woke up late.. i had an invitation from a friend to go to his house.. never drink too much, u end up having a hangover.. anyway, i went to his house and had some lunch.. late lunch cause i almost got lost on the way, NO THANKS TO HIS FRIENDS YAPPING AND SQUEALING IN THE BACKGROUND!!! haha, but it all turned out well. i felt bad because i had to leave early and sign in to my crappy job..
actually chinese new year is thata time of the year where you get to meet friends, eat out, enjoy a good ( unless you are at my place) fireworks display and just hang out, or as Malaysians say it, LEPAK!!!! it was a nice day in all, except for the part where some gay indonesian dude kept trying to whack my ass at work... it aint even a nice arse.. dang.. that still gives me the goosepimples. luckily i managed to make it clear that i was not gay, my gf paid me a visit.. (talk about a close save...)

Recipe of the Day....

Moist Butter Cake
250 g sugar
250 g BLUE KEY SELF RAISING FLOUR( it dont turn out as well if you use other flour)
250 g Butter( plain)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
5 medium size eggs


just mix the eggs, sugar and butter together until its a nice texture, not too chunky and as fine as possible. (i suggest softening the butter as its easier to mix and break the eggs separately over a different container before putting in the mix as it avoids a rotten egg spoiling your cake). after that add the vanilla and slowly add the flour a little at a time( it dont spray that much..) to know if the batter is ready, just use a spatula to scoop some and pour it back. it shouldnt plop in all at once or be too runny. it will slide off the spatula little by little and it will be a bit sticky. pour it into a 20 cm baking pan and put into a preheated oven at medium heat. after you start smelling the cake, reduce the heat BUT DO NOT TURN IT ALL THE WAY DOWN. a little is enough. poke it with a fork and the top should be nice and crusty while the for should come out clean. decor is up to you.. have fun
