Weekend Splurge

I'm on a strict diet..but for weekend I've declared to my body as a free day, which is no diet necessary but just controlling the food :)..so, as usual I like to eat something nice for this week..since we have not been eating seafood for quite a while (due to my cholesterol issue),  so I've decided to hangout at our favorite restaurant, Bubba Gump Shrimp & Co.


Splendid & Chilled for both us :)


Blueberry Lemonade for hubby & Mango Sparkler for me


While waiting for the food to be served, our lil angel as usual with her cutest action :)


So many actions at a time


Okay, our salad is ready to be digested by our super cranky stomach!

My first creation of Whoppies Pie ;)

Don't you think it looks so yummy :D?? I do....I have to break my tight diet coz of this sinful yummylicious!!!

Recipe??? Try this yourself...you won't regret with the result.

Chocolate Whoopie Pies

1 3/4 cups (230 grams) all purpose flour
3/4 cup (75 grams) cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup (170 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated white sugar
1 large egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup (60 ml) buttermilk
1/2 cup (120 ml) lukewarm water

Vanilla Filling

1/4 cup (55 grams) vegetable shortening
1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) (55 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup (115 grams) icing sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup (120 ml) light corn syrup

I don't like shortening or butter base filling, so I have made my own filling using fresh whipping cream. How to do?? Just mix all and beat.

Whipping Cream

2 cups of Whipping Cream (heavy cream is better)
1/4 cup of Icing Sugar
1tsp Vanila essence

How to Bake: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and place oven rack in the center of the oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large bowl sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In the bowl of your electric mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment (can also use a hand mixer), beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg beating well. Beat in the vanilla extract. In a small measuring cup, mix the buttermilk and water. With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk/water mixture, in three additions, beginning and ending with the flour. Drop heaping tablespoons (or any scoop spoon) of the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.

Bake for about 9-10 minutes or until the tops of the cookies, when lightly pressed, spring back. Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Vanilla Filling: Beat the shortening and butter until soft and creamy. With the mixer on its lowest speed, gradually beat in the icing sugar. Increase the speed to high, and beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Then, with the mixer on low speed, beat in the vanilla extract and slowly drizzle in the corn syrup. Continue to beat until the filling looks like soft mayonnaise.
 
To Assemble: Take one cookie and spread a heaping tablespoon of the filling on the flat side of the cookie. Top with another cookie.

The assembled cookies can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for several days. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Easy right?? Try yours now....Good Luck!!!

YSL Muse Two Croc Embossed

An iconic bag of YSL Muse Two that is currently in my possession. The bag is in the most immaculate condition and still looks and smell like new. In my acquisition since last year, however, since I have so many handbags so I didn't have much chance to carry this gorgeous bag.  It was such a waste to see this beauty is kept in the wardrobe and not to be showed off.

YSL Muse Two Croc Embossed

Details of the bag as follows.

i.   Season : Fall 2008
ii.  MSRP Retail Price : $1,995 (croc embossed)
iii. Brand : Yves Saint Laurent (YSL)
iv. Material : Crocodile Leather
v.  Size Measurements : 11" x 15" x 7" (Handle Drop : 7")
vi. Origin : Made in Italy

As seen on the well-known personality
I'm thinking to sell this bag off at an attractive price.  If you're really interested to have this bag in your hand, do email me at khaezryn@yahoo.com for your best offer.  The deal is first come first serve i.e. the first person pays will get the bag and off-course in full not partial payment!...ooopss, before I forget...the bag has no dust bag but comes with its papers..

"PARCHEL PISES"

Yesterday evening, we were out to a nearby shopping mall..intentioned was to purchase a pair of jeans, but then decided just to buy a belt...supposed to be only a belt, end up bought another pair of Nike Dry-Fit and two of Adidas Tops...what an attitude????

While walking around the mall, we stepped into toys dept...initially Emil wanted a bow..like  a Minnie's pink bow, but we couldn't find there..I was telling her...'girl, mummy couldn't find any bows here..so why don't you look for something else?'...with immediate she answered, "hhmmm... I want a parchel pises!!!" ...erkk!!!!! my husband and me both looking each other, figuring out what was she meant or wanted..???

She was at that time looking at a puzzle..."is this what she wanted??" I asked my husband and at the same time I've asked her again...and the answer still "I want a parchel pises!!!" and this time  she is holding a puzzle of Disney Princess...owh, okay...she probably meant a "puzzle pieces or puzzle princess"...hahahaha what a cute girl!!!


Satisfaction face..she managed to complete it with her babah :)
