We have a really nice convection (i think) oven at home to which i've never done justice. past baking escapades have always been.. well, lets just say everything used to come out of the oven one colour - black.

Until last week! I was pretty skeptical about the brownies but since some ex colleagues were coming over to bake (and i could share the 'glory' if they didn't turn out well :S), we did! and it was pretty yum, although feedback came later that it was too dry :S.

Anyhow, with that confidence boost, i decided to try apple crumble today:


Not bad right?! hahaha my mom thought it was good so i guess it was really nubbad =) think she was probably relieved that i could make something not half bad haha. although, it is kinda hard to screw up crumble :S

now there are even more recipes i wanna try yay =D carrot cake nexttt =)

side note: had dinner with parents & sis at this Peranakan restaurant today.. super yum! my mom really loved the ngo hiang.. i pretty much loved everything! ayam buah keluak.. otak.. fish maw soup... *slurps* plus i developed this new love for good chilli! heh. tho i think i'm sticking to elementary level chilli for now :S

just this short food-ish update for today =) g'nite!
