[Mood: Great] [Mentally:Fine] [Physically: Tired] [State of Mind: Alert]
What a day, ha ha... Woke up around 10AM, and realized I have to make cookies! Took a shower, and when I entered the kitchen, I saw that everything was ready for me to use. Thanks to my mum who took time to get them ready before going for morning classes. I was pretyt excited at the idea of making cookies. So you could say I was in the right mood. But I also don't have much time. My friend will be calling me in the afternoon to pick me up to go to her house to fix her PC. So I had to do my work a bit faster.
It took me quite a while to get the ingredients together, and when I did, I realized the mixer was not working. Dang it. I had to settle for manual mixing, and that took a LONG time. Even the folding method was manual. Luckily I had my sister who, upon seeing me bake cookies, was so excited to help. Soon enough, the paste was ready, and we tested the very first tray. After 5 mins, my sis opened the oven to take a peek, and she shrieked in terror. "Abang! Apsal cookies nyer lain macam?" meaning "Big Brother! Why the cookies are not turning out right?" So I took a look, and boy, they were deformed! I was shocked, but we went ahead anyhow. before I left the house to meet my friend, I saw Diyana online, so I told her of the situation. She re-checked the recipe, and realized she forgot to include plain flour! Upsetting! Dun worry, Master... people make mistakes... Just to give you guys what that mistake costs me... =x
I know, I know, pretty bad for a first time. but then, I wanted to do better. Took a quick look in my fridge, and I saw only one egg left. *phew*
So I made my way to Woodlands CC, where I'll meet up with my friend and her mum to drive back to their house. While I was fixing the PC, I took out the tupperware filled with the "deformed" cookies. Her siblings tried one, and couldn't resist taking another, and another, and another! I have to say it does taste quite nice. Even her mum commented it was tasty. Ha ha... I got the hopes of making the cookies right tonight!
On my way home, I dropped by Lot 1 NTUC Fairprice to get chocolate chips. upon reaching home, I rested for a while, before I started on the 2nd batch of cookies! (With plain flour, this time.) Took 30 mins to prepare the paste, and started baking at 11:20PM. And the last tray finished baking at 2:20PM. 3 whole hours of baking! Managed to bake quite a number of them.
Pre-baked cookies
"Mission control, cookies are in. We are ready for baking!"
*drools*
The tupperware's halfway filled, but I have 6 more trays to bake!
So the cookies turned out fine. Must be my wonderful mood. Been SMS-ing my friend the whole time while baking. I think she knows, and I know. We'll just see what time has in store.
For now...
*Zzzzz*
