Chinese New Year : Holiday in The Kitchen

On last Chinese Ney Year long holiday, my day was fully occupied. It was supposed to be family day and mainly for relaxation.


Thursday, 3rd February 2011

After breakfast, took out ingredients for Chicken Pie from fridge. Lunch menu for that day was Chicken Pie. As usual, Mak Cik already wash the chicken and diced the bawang besar. I've got new assistant, Malia to help me since my mother-in-law insist my younger sister-in-law to help me in the kitchen, learn how to cook...not that I'm master in kitchen but just to learn the basic.

Chicken Pie filling

Partly complete

We managed to do 23 pies. 23 big pies with size of 12cm x 12cm each. The pies were gone/finished by Friday evening.

Hot from oven

In the evening, we brought Adran to Kelab Maritim, Putrajaya for a swim. The water there were super cool. Luckily, Adran had his warmer on. That day, we just let him float by himself. He loved swimming. Swimming session, once or twice a month is a must after this.

We went to Lee's in-law house for Majlis Aqiqah for his new niece in the morning and when back before Friday prayer. The door gift is very nice. A flowery Surah Yassin and chocolate. The food was good especially roasted lamb. Yummy.

In the evening, another baking session for Chocolate Walnut Cookies. I start baking from 4.00pm until 8.00pm. So tired.


I used Golden Chunk Butter, Hershey's Cooking Chocolate and Hershey's Chocolate Chips. Love the recipes.

Beating butter and sugar


Cookie dough


I prefer to use baking sheet rather than butter

By Sunday, Malia had managed to finished one tupperware by herself!

A kid grows up with listening the famous children tales. Although most of them are fictitious, and aim mainly for the fun purpose, but they have another role to play. They are responsible for inserting the morale value within your kid's mindset when they are still budding. A visit to www.rightbooks.in/Items.asp?cid=1&fc=5&pt=3 will let you do it more effectively.
