I FAILED! nono, lets be a little more positive... my experiment needs tweaking? lol. I suppose it would've been alot nicer if I was more enthusiastic about the experiment in the first place. I spent the morning convincing myself that the taste of a Lychee Lemon muffin would be nice... but somehow, the convincing obviously didn't work. HAH. and i realized, i bake heaps better if i were actually hungry. so lesson learnt: NEVER BAKE ON A FULL STOMACH. in any case, here's what i did...
Made a cocacola cake, but instead, used lemonade in place of the cola, added lychee pieces and omitted the cocoa from the recipe. Of course, the fact that i didn't have buttermilk MIGHT have played a BIG part. the milk seemed...curdled after i tempered with it. OHWELL, the italian meringue frosting was not what i had in mind. in fact, it was NOTHING like i had planned. then again, i never really envisioned the taste of it properly since like i had, i was unconvinced of it's potential to be a GROUNDBREAKING muffin. there goes. maybe i should make something with Kaya instead. i do love a good dollop of kaya. kaya and peanut butter? suggestions anyone?
oh and Vee wanted me to do a 'what's in my bag' thingy. so here it is!
The bag with my stuff in it...whats inside... CK jacket, little waterbottle (singapore is HOT AS!), my wallet, my Gucci sunglasses, my handphone, liquid eyeliner (just bought it), supermarket shopping list, tissue paper!, plasters, piece of ppr with stella mccartney's fragrance sprayed on it (to keep my bag smelling good), lingerie (just got it!).there you go! whats in my bigbig bag. =)

yummy
I am going to psycho myself into thinking i am not hungry because having everything possibly edible sitting in your house is not very helpful to those who want to look a big nicer for chinese new year... and be able to breathe in their clothes. HAHA. yes, the typical weight struggles, i feel like bridget jones
sans grandma undies. well, also without boy trouble.. one thing to be thankful for, least he's supportive.
Made stickydate cupcakes (
diet? what diet?) for dajie (birthday cake request), therefore, it justifies every single bit of it. plus! wanting to be some superchef justifies half of it anyway. okay, i see myself falling asleep while re-reading this. i shall go... look at pretty people and feel motivated. =)
