this is not a food blog this is....NDP !!!!

hahaha...i decided not to make brownies at last minute due to some reasons...firstly, ppl would be like dirty and thirsty...and for brownies...u would most probably need clean hands to eat or a fork....secondly, i have never eaten cold brownies b4 ...and the brownies have been in the fridge , thirdly.....ayah its very dry la ....so i decided to make cookies.......

..decided to go hunting for cornflake cookies on the internet but in the end it has so many ingredients...i'll call it the chapalang cookie hahaha!!!!...

i also wont go into depth on how i made it coz ppl r asking me whether my blog is a food blog.....which is not!!!!

my 5th day working at polar puff !!!!!!!

yo guys firstly i'd like to thank u ppl for visiting....kk enuf.....onwards to polar puffs!!!!!!!!

...all set to rock the ppl at city link mall!!!!....

i would like to say as a foreword that working at polar puffs is kinda scary....especially 2day when i just restarted work since 3 weeks due to the clt course....damn!! i almost forgot wad was inside the pastries and how they looked like...u also look kinda stupid coz u have to wear that green shirt with the POLAR logo on it...and its almost like NCC man....have to tuck in shirt some more!!

I 'secretly' shot some photos during work time so i could share wif u my experience....haha...

...this is the sugar roll...sugar coated and non-sugar coated...i really like doing this part when the sugar coated ones are down to like half simply coz its fun!!!.....

...this is how u do it.....just roll the un-coated roll onto the sugar and ta-da!!!...

...a sugar-coated sugar roll!!... :) ...

...now on to the coffee...some of you may or may not know that some polar outlets also can sit down and eat...these outlets are called HIGH STREET CAFEs..watever tat means...the sales ppl like myself dont really get such 'high' treatment y'knw?...

...well...this is wad i ate for my lunch in the measily 15 mins i had but it only costed me $1.50 frm 7-11...i wanted nasi lemak but it was sold out...and guess where i ate that?...on the floor behind the pastry display cabinet....

...i also learnt the bloody 'high' class terms for coffee with little milk..called Long black.. so ppl will go like .."one long black on the go pls ?"..and i would be like huh?? wat the hell is tat?.. i mean tats on the 1st day......same goes for coffee with more milk- flat white...

...and here's the coffee machine...i still dunno how to make mocha and latte....hopefully i'll learn tat 2mrw!!!...

ohh...and since 2day was a public holiday,...i would be getting 5 dlrs per hour!!!!..wah but then with more money comes more trouble...its like the customers gang up at the mrt then march to polar and order at the same time haix hectic man...... there were hordes of ppl waiting to buy when i was about to finish my shift.....so i had to do about 20 mins overtime...and i made benjamin and my princess desmond wait..sorry guys!!!

after my work.....it was time to CHILL!!!

...desmond brought us around marina square to look-see-look-see..teaching me how to look at clothes and that ZARA-MAN was THE place to shop...i couldnt really be bothered coz i dun really understand shopping...hahaha..

...now for the best part...the FOOD!!!!...my dear princess was buying his watch when he lost his way....so i and ben were at food junction in raffles city...and we took some photos..

...the whole spread except the pepper lunch was orderd by me...coz i wanted to be full and happy :)....

...time for some food critics....the fried chicken wif thai chilli sauce that i orderd was nothing special...wasnt horrible either....the prata was too tasteless and they used too little dough to make it and my ko-song turned out crispy but tasteless...i prefer chewy prata..wad makes prata crispy is most of the time the usage of lots of oil...and their only choice of fish curry was just as bad...no taste wan!!!...

the 1st trial of the brownie i'm gonna make for the S1 outing on sunday

Yo ppl !!!.....come more often lei...disheartening leh to see so little ppl come visit this blog....no support will die wan y'knw?

hahaha...enuf of that...lets move on to the interesting part 2day. i decided to try and make a 1st round of brownies to see how it would turn out ...coz i've never done brownies b4....and would be catastrophic if i made it on saturday nite and all goes awry.....i'll be bringing this batch of brownies for the MAJ gary's briefing on sat.....to let you all try....hope u enjoy :)

i attempted to be a cam-whore so i could put up more photos..and i used a digital camera this time...

here's the recipe...

well here's the recipe....if you're smart enough...you find that you cant find the part where you are supposed to add the toppings....

...butter....

...the one cup of flour...
...350 grams of 'unsweetened choc...

...haha...2nd complication!!!..i was supposed to use unsweetened chocolate but my sister used it to make her fondue.... so i had to make do with dairy milk chocolate.... and to compensate for the sweetness of the milk choc. i used 2 cups of sugar instaed of 2.5 cups...i tell u its not for diabetic ppl man(such as my father).......

...see cheryl? i'm not that cheap!!!..even if i am i've got reason...hershey's chocolate k?.....hahaha...

...preparing to melt the butter and choc...remember to do it over extremely low heat!!!....

...2 mins into heating...

...5 mins into heating..

...done!!

just look at that amount of sugar!!!!..
....dont have diabetes also will get man!!!

....playing with flour... ...chopping half macadamias into quarters....

...drizzling on the nuts...oh and by the way.. i already added the daim chocolates...

..hehe..my retarded face...
...the 1st time i took it out after 30 mins......the insides were too mushy so i cut canals in the other tray for heat to penetrate....


...finally finished!!!! now for tasting!!!....
...no!!wait....photo taking session!!

...now, the tasting session..!!!

....ahh....

...hmph!...oi!! give already cannot take back hor!!

well that about it!!!!.... my sis said it was nice and chewy!! yay!! i tink i was successful :)...oh and shoban?....i havent gotten food poisoning yet,,,so we'll see..hahaha
