New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookies

Finally, finally....after many years of watching other people bake the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies aka. New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookies, I finally got a chance to try it myself! First of all, yes it is good like everyone say so. The texture is perfect...soft and chewy. I made mine with semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of chocolate chunks. It's still good. However, there is one thing that I would like to try. I want to make them a little bit less sweet. Not sure whether if I decreased the amount of sugar, it would effect the texture of the cookies or not. If anyone had tried this, please let me know! But for sure, the original recipe is already great, so maybe I shouldn't change a thing! just eat less so I dont have to feel quilty!

Sticky Date Pudding

It is nice to be back on here again...doing all the baking and a quick photo shooting. It has been a long time to be on here and I'm very much missing it all! Last week, one of my best friend was back in BKK. She brought back a box of dried dates from Qutar as a gift for my parents. So, I stole them to make these little yummy Sticky Date Pudding! It was delicious, nice & soft...not too sweet. Great with a cup of tea for the afternoon. Enjoy!

(I'm currently so into the lomo app on the iphone these days. It's fun to take photos with it. The photo always look good and you don't need much of the skills! Fun Fun! Here is the lomo of my sticky date pudding)

Beijing & Hong Kong Trip 2011 (Part II)

Great Walls

These are some of the photos  from my trip in Beijing. We went to many places including The Great Walls, Olympic Stadium The Bird Nest, Summer Palace, Forbidden City, and many more. I feel bad that I couldn't remember all of the places. I felt like we went to so many temples and palaces and at the end I got confused because they all look similar to one another. lol. Anyways, I took many photos but these are some of the highlight that I like to share with you. Enjoy!
