hye.
as you can see, im trying to be more active in the blogosphere :) (isnt that a cool technical term?)
for all the fans of the tuition ministry outreach chocolate chip cookies (all thanks the lin ping), HERES THE RECIPE :P
Old-Fashioned Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
An old family recipe, these cookies are now a raid-the-cookie-jar favourite at the Graham B&B Inn in Sedona, Arizona.Ingredients
1 cup butter-flavoured shortening (we just used normal butter)
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1.5 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt, optional
2 cups rolled oats (old-fashioned or quick cooking)
12-ounce bag of semisweet chocolate chips
Procedure
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees (190 degrees celcius). Grease insulated cookie sheets
2. In a large bowl of an electric mixer, blend shortening and sugars. Beat in eggs
and vanilla.
3. in a separate bowl, mix flour, bakig soda and optional salt. Add to egg mixture. Stir in oats and chips (by hand if you do not have a heavy duty mixer.)
4. drop golf ball-sized cookies well apart onto the cookie sheets. Bake for 12 minutes.
5. Remove pans from oven and cool cookies for 5 minutes before removing form trays. Eat 'em right away (as though you had to be told...)!
Makes about 40 cookies.see! its easy and yummy so make it someday!

im watching the olympics march in thing now. BORING. seriously i really dont know why anyone will want to watch this. (sorry to offend whoever watched it!! :P ) its the same thing over and over again! 200 countries marching in, so you can imagine how long it'll take! i havent even seen singapore march in yet!
haha april was doing silly things just a few days before! we were watching Lost on tape i think then suddenly the national day planes flew by with a LOUD sound. so we couldnt hear anything on tv. then april said: wait ah...
then she paused the tape, rewinded it a little, and went to the porch and looked into the sky (i bet she felt like she was in one of those Kodak moments, with the wind blowing in her hair, and the tranquility of the night.)
and then i said: april, stop pretending to be interested."
then she was like " oh ya ah why am i doin that man haha." and she gave me the embarassed smile which showed that i hit the nail on the head. HAHA. i bet she thought she was a loser, and i agreee :P
