Cool Cake Day

So like a while ago now, I went to friend's house to bake a cake with her mum. Her mum is an amazing baker and we did some cool icing things. I learnt a lot like how easy it is to actually bake a cake.

1Kg Butter Cake is basically :

• 250g butter
• 250g sugar
• 250g flour
• 1tsp baking powder per 125 gram of flour
• 5 eggs

Its just cream the butter and sugar add eggs one at a time till smooth then add the flour and baking powder a little at a time.

The making of the butter cream frosting was a super guess and check thing. We just chucked in butter and mixed it and kept adding icing sugar till the right consistency was met. runnier for the crumb coat and a bit stiffer for the pretty decorations, more icing sugar. 

Its was quite fun so I might start getting even fancier with my icing job.

Lite & Easy: My Experience

So I have been on Lite & Easy for 3 weeks now and I have been enjoying them. The only thing is that I don't really like the dinner that much, I am really only obsessed with the sausages and mash.

However the breakfasts and lunches are pretty golden! I don't age pics of lunch as I usually eat them quite deconstructed coz I am lazy... so not very pretty.  I like how I am not starving everyday and I have snacks like all the time.

When I first started, I tried the 1200 calorie meal plan it was not enough. I was quite hungry all the time and actually had extra meals. Then the next week I went for the 1500 calorie meal plan it was so much better. I feel like sometimes I even have too much food.

So my current meals cost me $121 for 5 days of 3 meals a day. I do the 5 day as I like to have the choice to go out and eat something else if I wanted. I think that the cost is okay for a lonely single person as my boo is away and cooking for oneself is annoying. How many days can i eat friend rice in row.

Fremantle Sweets

A couple of weeks ago I went to the Fremantle markets and had a fun time eating all the SWEETS!

Those giant doughnuts are to die for . The cookies however are pretty good but made me pig out too much. Do not buy the 4 pack and expect them to be able to be all eaten up by yourself.

And I finally made the little slice of strawberry shortcake felt thingy from the diaso kit that i got whilst I was in Singapore for $2. Its so cute!!!

OOTW - Winter is coming.

I am so happy for leggings weather so I shall be taking more selfies on awesome BM combos. Last week I got really into my 8065 Mary Janes from Doc Martins with my white frilly socks. I has been a while but I got obsessed!!! And you can wear your body cons as skirts. so that was a thing too. 

I think this might make a regular appearance as I wear ore noteworthy outfits. 

Yummy Food

I have been bad but I am back! I shall have more posts this week as I have a lot to say.

My boo was back for his R&R last week so it means that I get to eat out all the time.

I went to Gusto and had the chorizo and haloumi. It was not as good as I had hoped. The part i enjoyed most was not the chorizo and haloumi but it was the mashy stuff the salad and the toasted tortilla. It just got super heavy and meh really quick.

We discovered this place called MON in Leederville and it turned out to be a really amazing little Japanese place we had the seafood board. Grilled salmon, deep-fried soft shelled crab, agedashi fish and tofu as well as salmon and scallop sashimi. The serving of this to share was a bit small considering how hungry we were but that was okay as we went to Greens & Co for cake after, I had the Concorde and my boo had the apple berry pie.

I really love Greens & Co, I always enjoy my cake and tea with my game of Connect 4, talk about childhood memories.

Food and Swims and macarons

My week. Gusto for brekkie, soup from Slurp, almond croissants from La Galette and a kani roll from Shio. There are just a few of my favourite places. Turns out that I like a veloute soup, all thick and rich. Yum.

I made chilli mussels and chocolate macarons. I have tried and true recipe that I have used for years is available here. Something that I do to make it easier to make a meringue is separate the eggs a day or 2 before using them, it seems to make it easier and use the mister from a low intensity to high gradually as it thickens from the incorporated air.

I got my dream piece, The Pulp Sesame Swim, this week. Popsicles in popsicles.

Jesus christ paid for our shins

So I was making lunch and had 2 eggs of double yolks! Like OMG! Then I realised how many bruises I had on my legs. One of my dinners I had Campbell's cream of mushroom soup, I haven't had it in ages and it is so good. And for another night I had duck for dinner just coz I wanted some. I just had the duck, it seems like the people at the duck place love me as they gave me 2 drums!!!! 

Look at what this one guy commented on my instagram. A first I was like what a god preacher then I realised how funny it was.
