pre-v-day

Is it bad of me to say.. I dislike v-day?

its such an elitist holiday for couples. What about all the singles? Why is there not a single's day? Why must the greater proportion of the population feel ill at ease for one holiday/occasion?

I'm guessing I'll feel differently if/when I'm attached.

On a brighter note,

I made... marbled red velvet cheesecake brownies.. in the shape of hearts.. just for the occasion.

Note: use red gel colouring next time for a more vibrant colour. and get a FLAT bottomed pan. Also, increase cheesecake layer and thin out the brownie layer a bit.

And from the scraps, made heart-shaped cake truffles. - made with nutella and dark chocolate.

How does it taste? hmm.. don't know yet.. will update with pictures and a verdict.. tomorrow?

xoxo

Update:

The truffles.. 2 hearts

The marbled red velvet cheesecake brownies.. deeeelish! Creamy, chocolatey, slight hint of cheese, sticky... so yea what's not to like? Pretty heart shapes? SOLD!

So.. will you be my valentine?

food blogging

I've been reading food blogs lately.. well haha.. more than my usual amount. And it got me thinking.. should I start a food blog? but I don't know whether I'll be dedicated enough to it ?? Lol I could start out simple with just pearl milk tea or something!

I'll think about that.

Why? you ask am I thinking about doing this? Hmm.. I ask myself the same reason and the answer just seems to be that I enjoy it. I already post up all my food up on facebook.

I also spent pretty much the whole day in the kitchen. I enjoy it thoroughly. I'm happy when I'm in the kitchen of my own accord.

I enjoy my dinners with WS and the enjoyment we BOTH get when we dig into a delicious meal.

As it is, I made some adorable yet slightly failed valentine treats. Why do I do this? I don't know. I think it just to see if I can. People think I'm a great cook, but I do honestly feel that they overcompliment, purely due to the fact that most of my recipes are not of my own. I just follow people's recipes, they work and I'm happy!

Well, just to leave y'all with a happy advanced valentine's day! =)

I'm starting the week's rotation with sedation =O.

Is it bad that I'm hoping that people just don't turn up?
