I have been busy like a bee.....

Yup!

Drawing a tree in my house is a dream for me. I mean I've never have such an freedom to do so, imagine if I draw it on my parent's house? or my hubby's house ( if we live with them) ? I think they would have angry and mad at me like ..forever? I don't know. May be or may be not, but I wouldn't give it a risk.

我常常幻想拥有一颗树， 在我的房间里或屋子里。一直都没有机会，父母家和夫家都不是能发挥创意的地方，我从来不敢多想。现在，在自己的家里，对我来说是个好地方，我可以不受约束的发挥我的想象力，去创造我的天空。

first night

second night

the 3rd night

finished work. ^-^

I was extremely tired, just because I've given myself a hard time for the preparation. We fight for no reason the other night, and I found out I was under pressure, hubby as me to slow down the preparation and he willing to give a little help with the cookies too! Aw... I was then "soak in the honey" for a few day.

夜晚，小孩睡着了之后， 我便开始工作了。白天，我让自己做一种饼干(新年用的）便收工。几天下来，脾气不好的我还与老公为了小事， 小吵架。过后老公说我的样子好像很老，我听了也难得的赞同了一下。他才要我放下工作好好的休息一下，并承诺会早一点放工回来帮忙我。^-^ 接着几天，我都是浸在蜜糖里的工作着。。。。

and then the next one is,

Marble Cheese Cake

After baking for a few time of this cake, I work out a rather easy way for it, sharing it here.

Ingredient A: ( in a large size bowl/such)
butter (Unsalt) 250gm
castor sugar 160gm
salt 1/2 tsp
egg 3


Ingredient B:
flour 120gm
cocoa powder 20gm
baking powder 1/2 tsp


Cheese Ingredient:
cream cheese 250gm
castor sugar 80gm
egg 1

Method:
- spread the butter to the tray you going to use for the cake and set aside.
- Cheese ingredient mixed well and set aside.
- Ingredient A mixed well (egg has to be put in one by one).
- Ingredient B mixed well and slowly add in to Ingredient A while mixing until thickened.
- Spoon the mixtures into the ready pan, a little (enough to cover the whole base of the tray) then spoon in the cheese ingredient a little (enough to cover the mixtures), follow by the mixtures again (same method) and the cheese again and mixtures again.....
- Then flatten the top of the pan and set in to bake for 180c for 45 minute.
- try using a toothpick to see if it's ready to served ( by insert it to the middle of the cake, when you pull out and nothing is on it then it's ready)


P.S: Usually ready when you follow this method. ^-^




Remark:
one of this given to my mum, mother-in-law, myself and one sold to William's worker. He said it's tasty..
（一个给老妈的，一个给家婆的，自己留一个还卖了一个给William 的工人，他说好好吃哦！）

That's enough to today, hope you all have a nice day. Hugs,
