TaNkGiRly 的網路日誌

 I only went away to fetch my camera, the hole on the botton grew bigger when I got back!

 My dear friend Katzie requested this. This is a lot simpler version compare to most of the online recipe, but yumminess all the same.

 I was on banana diet for about three weeks, lost a bit of weight, and thanks to that, we had awful lots of bananas in our house. While they are okay inside, their skin started having black spots. Steven, for some reason, refused to have any banana with black spots on the skin. I had to do something about those bananas.

 The lovely Google gave me the perfect answer: Banana Ice cream.

 Went to Pakuranga Shopping Mall to pick up Horatio’s glasses. Somehow the fixed glasses became slightly larger. While waiting for them to adjust the frame, I decided to drop by Stevens to buy the gingerbread man cookie cutter I spotted weeks ago.

 Only NZD$7, a marvelous cheap new toy to play with.

Decided to make Steven a Tiramisu cake for his birthday a few weeks back. Not sure if this is a good thing, Steven actually had no idea what that was. He thought it was some Jappie cake!

The recipes I got from Cabnolen and several others suggested a Kahula or Bailey is the best. But since we got kiddies in the house, I had to alter the recipe and put in Milo instead.

 Found this somewhere on the web when I had half of a bag of self raising flour and wanted to bake something without buying more ingredients. The website said this recipe is design for the children to bake. You can pretty much sit back, relax and watch them do something that is not destructive for a change. I am lazy to the core person, absolutely hate anything that trigger another singular cell in my brain or involve another string of muscle. This looked ideal to me (using only cup as a measurement and no scale whatsoever is involved). First try during the Christmas holiday proven to be very popular. So now this recipe, along with the chocolate croissant, become the permanent figure in our household.

 The reason I used the M&M is because the ordinary mini chocolate melt as soon as I stir them into the mixture. While the whirling effect look indeed very pretty, Horatio prefer to actually see some chocolate ‘bits’. Plus the effect of melting sugar coating on M&M is also very interesting. Once you get the hang of it, you can replace the chocolate with other things such as sliced almond, chopped peanut, etc.

   



The bakery in our supermarket had Croissant on 'Special', NZD$3.51 for four big ones, very special.

         藍名頓蛋糕是紐澳地區有名的甜點。全國上下只要稍具規模的糕餅店都有賣〈只不過他們大都在已經很甜的蛋糕上又擠了一堆鮮奶油加一粒櫻桃，往往甜的你得灌下一大壺鐵觀音才沖的下去〉。澳洲版的巧克力口味及紐西蘭版的果凍口味都各有其趣。此甜點尤其受小孩子歡迎，通常一盤端出去不到幾分鐘就全被瓜分完畢。這回我來教大家做做這道點心，不難做，包你小孩〈或是愛甜的親朋好又〉從此愛你愛到心坎裡。

湯湯一族寒冬的佳餚----洋蔥濃湯Soupe A L’oignon



　　紐西蘭最近寒流來襲，一個禮拜七天有六天半冷的要命，連偶爾露露臉的陽光也不管用，我到母親那要了一個洋蔥，翻了翻廚房的櫃子及冰箱，生完ㄚ脩後很久沒做東西了，決定來做一道暖身子的洋蔥湯。

斯文的最愛----漢堡肉餅

　　母親知道我下班會去看她，特別煎了一些碎肉球讓我帶回去給斯文吃。哪知母親的調理配方並不太對斯文的胃，他反而懷念我們以前和公公住時我常煎的漢堡肉餅，磨著我一定要作。

　　

馬蓋仙式天然去角質秘方



最近在紐澳版Cosmo上一本舊雜誌上看到了一個純天然、不含任何人工化學成份的去角質面膜秘方，妙的是材料都可以在一般廚房內找到(就向馬蓋仙一樣！！)。我個人試過之後覺得還蠻不錯的。好東西和好朋友分享，特在此公佈:
