I’ve been busy…

I did mention in my blogpost the other day that my girl has been keeping herself busy during this end-of-year school break.

The other day, she cooked the very nice gnocchi and one afternoon, she made these lovely butter cookies…

I don’t think she ever made cookies before – that has always been her mum’s territory. Well, if she did, I jolly well can’t remember.

They turned out really great as far as the taste was concerned, nicer than those imported ones. The only thing that she needs to work on would be the shape – they were not perfectly round! I heard the mum nagging in the kitchen – what she would do, what she would not do, bla…bla…bla… I guess she’s the expert – like I said, it’s her territory. I just ate! LOL!!!

She made quite a lot, enough extra to fill this tub…

…and give to my sister to try.

Incidentally, my friends’ kids made these German cookies…

…and if you’re here in Sibu and would like to grab some for Christmas or Chinese New Year and to give them a bit of motivation and support, perhaps you can contact the mum via her Facebook page to place your orders. I’m not sure but if you drop by the shop (next to UOB Bank), you may be able to buy them off the shelves there.

In the meantime, my girl also made these rolls…

I don’t think she followed any recipe – it was her own creation.

I saw some chopped onions and imitation crab sticks. Those had been in the freezer for a long time now so my guess was she wanted to get rid of them. There were some mashed potatoes and she used the leftover spring roll skin from the last time we had a popiah lunch and dinner.

I did not see it myself but she said that she also added some curry powder, one red chili and five green cili padi. Gosh!!! No wonder it…

…was very spicy! We were fine with that as we are perfectly ok with things that are spicy so of course, we enjoyed eating those, piping hot from the oven.
