Princess Tiara Cake

Alyssa’s classmate, Dana, turned 6 last Saturday and instead of the usual store bought gift I decided to bake a moist chocolate cake. This is an opportunity for me to practice my cake-making/designing skills at the same time, a form of promotion for my soon-to-open cake business. I made a simple princess cake with a tiara as the topper. Boy! It took me 3 days to dry it, but still not perfect since it cracked so a pink and yellow rope came in to the rescue (which was not part of the design concept I had in mind at first), but I guess it’s look better. My little girl was of course excited and very proud. She choose the color theme which was pink, lavender and yellow. I must admit I went crazy over the dots and it was a little bit too much. Still it was good and made the celebrant’s mom and birthday girl very very happy with my first real creation. Ang yeah, a music from a good home audio speakers must be the perfect company as I do them, but since I only have the...

Zumba Fitness Every Tuesday

I mentioned I just had my first badminton experience last Friday, but that’s not all. Just this evening, I also had my first ever Zumba experience. I didn’t know what Zumba really is until I watched in youtube a few hours before we headed to the class.

The verdict???

Wow! It was fantastic! My two girl friends and I tried the class together and right there and then, as soon as we entered the door we have to move our buts off and dance along with all the others. I couldn’t believe how on earth I was able to follow the steps. I haven’t danced for ages.

I didn’t know most of the music, but you just learn to dance to it especially with the full volume of the speakers. Different music and steps every 5 minutes and in between I couldn’t afford not to drink. I am not a water drinker, but I think I drank a litre in that 1 hour.

Feeling healthy is good, but being healthy is so much better.

Badminton – The Start of a Healthy Lifestyle

Last Friday, we (hubby & I, with our dear friends) enjoyed the whole 2 hours playing badminton. It was actually my first time in a real court as I have only tried playing badminton in a very small space just outside our house with unpolished flooring. :)

It was an awesome experience. We all had a good sweat in this winter season. I could honestly say that I am no good at it, but at least this time when I try to serve, I am actually hitting the shuttlecock unlike before when it falls to the ground right before I swing my racket. ;)

We are planning on playing at least once a week and I really hope this is the start of a healthy lifestyle for us. I love it more that hubby and I are in this together.

Before, I was just thinking of trying yoga. I’ve been eyeing dfyoga for rubber yoga mats, but then I guess it’s better if we’ll try things one at a time. At least we already started somewhere.

Food Theme – Updating the look

I haven’t been blogging for quite a while now and everything seems so new to me. I would want to revamp this blog, but I will have to use pre-made ones first until I find the time to customise themes again.

I will be re-learning coding again and I guess it will take me some time before I finally get the hang of it.

I haven’t also been cooking as much as before so I have no food pics to share, but I believe I haven’t shared some of the latest cakes I’ve made from last year.

I’ll try to share them all to you one at a time. Hopefully this gives me the mojo to get back to blogging again.
