Trying New Recipes

Chocolate Chip Shortbread Wedges & Italian Cream of Mushroom


9 Ramadan - Hari Rajin Sedunia hehe. Tiba-tiba teringat nak buat mushroom soup yang macam kat Pizza Hut untuk anak-anak (my kids LOVE it plus the garlic bread). Terjumpa satu resipi setelah meng'google' di satu forum maya ni. Semangat pun memuncak...mood suda mari! Went to buy some of the ingredients right after work. Kebetulan the night before, came across this Chocolate Chip Shortbread Wedges from Kongsi Resipi...hmm...VERY simple to do so semangat pun double memuncak to make both of these tonight.

Maka itulah hasilnya (rujuk gambar di atas). Banyak boleh improve lagi. The mushroom soup agak cair, should've tambah lagi kentang & tepung jagung utk lebih pekat. The taste quite ok...mcm Campbell or Vono punya tu. Cuma slack sikit sbb tadi masa beli bahan2, tak jumpa Cream...yg ada hanya Whipping Cream. Jadi terpaksa replaced with susu cair. Ok nevermind, I will surely try the recipe again next time. As for the garlic bread, I simply used the normal Gardenia bread, spread with garlic butter & toasted them in the bread toaster.

Next is the shortbread wedges...also ok...didn't know it was THAT simple. Rangup & sedap. Mengikut kata orang yang berkongsi resipi tersebut, kalo tak nak buat bentuk wedges, boleh juga buat bentuk bulat kecik2 maka akan jadi choc chip cookies lah plak kan. But I'd prefer the wedges style. Nanti boleh buat lagi & bubuh more choc chips :)

Getting A Facelift...for my blog

Love it!

Out of a sudden, I got bored with my blog's background image. The urge to switch to a new one came right there & then so I had to do it. Browsed thru the tons of images provided by Blogger and I came down to few options that fit to my liking. Finally satisfied with one design by Juxtagirl (refer above).

Feeling flowery gitu :)

One thing that I forgot to do was to save a screenshot of the old background image. Should have done that for "Before & After" look of my blog. Also I decided to change the title header from "Blogging When Time Permits" (as in the URL) to "More Than Words" which crossed my mind at the moment I was looking for a new title (well the song with the same title by Extreme is one of my all time favorites so it seemed right!).

Depending on my mood, I'll most probably keep changing the background image from time to time. So will the blog title...ha ha...
