New SwimSuit

Bought this swimsuit for YiWen for more than 2 months already. But never had chance to bring her to swimming pool to show off.. Everytime, she open the drawer and see this suit, she will simply try to wear it while her clothes are on. This time, i helped her to undress and wear this suit just to please her. Funny to see her on it coz her look is just too boyish for this sexy suit. Hehehe.. :P

Cute Banana Muffin for Toddler

I always wanted to make some sweet dessert for my little YiWen, but never have such "Ohmm" until i saw this recipe from Cooking Grave by Amy Ong. Her banana muffins look so tempting! I think my muffins are lacking baking powder. Should put more to make it puff up. :P

I found the muffins a bit starchy. According to my mum, she said i put too much flour. I guess so.. next round, I'll try to reduce it. This is also the first time my hubby gave me a hand in the wet kitchen. He helped me to mix the barter well. Of coz, need to sacrify my ears.. he told me all his hero story on how he taught ppl to make cake/muffin and blah blah blah.. merepek aje.. :P Btw, my hubby loves muffin. He told me he save money during his study time in Europe just to buy a muffin.

Though, i think my muffins has failed (due to starchiness) but my YiWen loves it! Look at how enjoyable she was.. :D She is really a big love of my life.. :)
