Raya is around the corner!
This will be our 2nd year celebrating in our home. Me and hubby went ingredients shopping last week. It's for our experiment on raya cakes and cookies. Our 1st cake was Rich Chocolate Brownie. We took it from the book my hubby gave to me for our 1st Wedding Anniversary. I took it to work for colleagues to taste it. 1 of my teammates is a Chinese guy who couldn't wait for the rest till iftar. He ate it... The comment he gave me was, 'Next time you bake the whole cake and let me bring home.' So...sedaplah tu...kekekeke! (hai aku ni..duduk dalam bakul pikul sendiri...wakaka...) I'm so proud of my hubby. This would not be possible without him. So this coming Sunday, it's gonna be cookies. With tones of things to do. Hope we'll make it.
