worship was terrorizing.But someone said,hey you can sing.Yeah,in the shower :)
Sat was supposedly a pig-out session as usual at some fancy restaurant to celebrate-mother's day,mom's,bro's,sis's birthday.Sigh,such a complicated affair.But no-ma decidedly thought that it wasn't worth it with so many coming for dinner,who else?but richard,han,and Hing zai.SO..i threw myself into baking,8 courses of desserts.
Kidding,3-cheesecake,choc mousse,apple crumble.I supposed i overdid it.Not me,ma did.Apple crumble was fantastic,hingzai kept singing praises *blush.I hardly blush okay?so,a milestone.I don't think the guys will be too keen on desserts after this,they positively groaned when i brought the apple strudel out.

cheers to tofu haters!
Those who witnessed the process of this mousse making couldn't bring themselves to touch it considering all the effort i put in.Hey,i even stole mint for garnish from the garden of the house at the corner.So while we were guffawing and laughing our insides about saving the best for the last,and while everyone was licking their apple crumble from their plates,my scheming ma decided to put the guys to the test.I swear my bro knew we were up to no good,dessert after dessert is way TOO suspicious,hence not touching it. Heck,it was quality bitter chocolate can?70% cocoa,veryyy expensive.
Hingzai couldn't figure the choc mousse out,what more the two dumbdumbs.Instead of artery clogging,cholesterol boosting double cream as central ingredient,it was silken TOFU!!!the consistency,the colour, thickness was similar,except it was so much healthier!!!Too bad i couldn't find any berries in season to throw in.HAhahha,their expressions were so interesting to watch.
For a tofu hater like me,i would say the soy smell lingers faintly,but bearable.Cause the chocolate is divine.Tell me,how can it not be when the ratios are 350g quality thick,bitter choc against 100g silken tofu?SO,very very chocolateey.
It was good to hear from aunty grace.she's always so motherly,so tender,so lovely.She can make anyone who's everyone happy about themselves.
okay digressing,i have 12 journals to go,and 2 weeks left to do.If i can move beyond procrastinating to working my butt off to preparing dg lesson by tonight,I'll live.
I think i feel fat.Pigging out on weekends is such a felony.Sue me.
