my mom's easy cake..

My sister n i love to cook. We enjoy baking. Yet we always tried complicated recipes that end up not satisfying. Here's a cake recipe that never failed us so far. It's so easy that i'm too well verse with it that we never jot them anywhere. I think i need to jot them down as others may try n do it n enjoy doing it.

What you need :
250grams butter, sugar n flour (plain with some baking powder or self raising, up to you).
5 eggs
1tsp vanilla essence.

These are the basic.

If you want chocolate cake, just add around 1/4 cup of cocoa powder mixed with some water.

If u love orange cake you can have 1/2 cup of orange juice.

If you want to modify the cake, it would be up to you since so far the recipe is quite flexible.

As to how to put things together, like other cake u need to beat butter n sugar first, then eggs n flour bit by bit, lastly the vanilla essence n the flavoring.

Bake for around 45 minutes in 180 degrees celcius oven (less if you are making cup cakes) n you'll get a nice sweet treat for tea.

Write all the recipe for me...

As always, we had a chat on the way back from school. The girls were hungry and asked what's for lunch. Well, since mummy was at home in the morning I've prepared a simple lunch for us. Masak tempoyak Ikan (fish in fermented durian gravy) and  kacang botor goreng (fried winged beans) for mummy and daddy, fried chicken, fried fish and chicken soup for the kids. "Wow! So delicious mummy..." Mentioned Athiya. Then my little darling Alana said, "all mummy's cooking are delicious. When I grow up can you write all the recipe for me so I can cook delicious food like you?" Well my dear, you just know how to please me...as always. Insya Allah, when the time comes I'll teach you all that I know. I might not have the orange and torn recipe book like your late grandmother, but I'll make sure I jot down all the recipe that I know and especially those that you enjoy eating here in my blog. For you guys to see and maybe to refer to when I'm gone. InsyaAllah...

My Sydney (Kingsford)

 My first time boarding a flight is to Sydney Australia. Never in my wildest dream to cross the oceans to live outside Malaysia for one and a half years. But it happened.. It really did happen. I was young then. Just graduated the year before and worked to fund my IELTS examinations and other preparations before flying off to the Wallabies Island. It was quite a terrifying thought as the furthest that I've been on my own was when I took the express bus to Perak to attend an interview. I remembered the day before. We had a small feast at home. Organised and prepared by the villagers. I was considered the first who went abroad at that time and in a way became the pride of the village. It was overwhelming to see how high was people expectation towards myself.  The day we left for Sydney I didn't know what to expect. Being a control freak I've checked out the university's website for more than 10 times. I even printed all the information that I thought may be useful (bus / ...

Me, a long holiday... or is it?

I've given birth to my second child Alana Imtiaz Az Zahra on 6th of February 2010. That is actually almost a month earlier than when she's suppose to born. Anyway, since I've given birth I'm entitled to a 60 days maternity leave. Well it's a long holiday if you look at the number of days. Yet it seems so short since there's a lot for me to do. I have one program to organize, one paper to write and not to forget one research to finish. Oh... and a special project to be finished. I just hope I can do them all and by the time I finish my holiday I'll be free of these commitments and I can continue resting a bit.
