Chocolate Chip Cookies :)

Last friday, July 1, I got no class so I decided to use, for the first time, my oven. :) I have been buying my ingredients beforehand and I decided to make Chocolate Chip Cookies because it's so easy to do. I need to make an easy bake product because I'm still testing the oven. :)  

INGREDIENTS:
Butter, Granulated sugar, Brown sugar, Egg, Vanilla extract, All purpose flour, Oatmeal, Salt, Baking powder, Baking soda, Walnuts & Chocolate chips

I got all the ingredients but the walnuts and I can't find any other nuts except for peanut, I don't wanna use peanuts so I didn't use anything. Haha! :D

NOTE: Always always always pre-heat the oven. It's a golden rule every baker should know.  :) Btw, say hello to my two week old rangetop with oven. :)

While doing everything, I forgot to take a photo of every procedure and the ingredients too. Sorry. I hope to learn my lesson. Next time I'm gonna bake, I'll keep in mind that I'm a blogger. Haha! :p

While grounding the oatmeal, that's the only picture I have taken while making Chocolate Chip Cookies. :)

Baking the cookies! :) The pan was jam packed because I only have 1 pan and I just want to bake once. Hehe. Pardon my laziness, I promise not to do it again to produce a better product next time. 

Getting the cookie off the parchment paper. I lined my pan with a parchment paper so that it will not stick to the pan. :) Aaaand that's what I'm talking about, my cookies were deformed due to the lack of space. They stick to each other when they expanded. The cookies should have at least 2 inches space all around it. :)

Anyhow, it was a success! All the chocolate chip cookies were eaten, nothing was put into waste. Yehey! :)


I hope to do this more often. I really love baking though there are ups and downs, that's just how life tests your skill or strength. 'Til next time! :)

Love,

SHIRT: Roxy, SKIRT: People are People, SHOES: Spring, NECKLACE: Thrift shop from HK

I need a make over. I actually want to lose some weight because it is nicer to wear some clothes when you're a little slimmer and because I have an ovarian problem. Nothing serious though but a problem is still a problem right? I also want to have my hair re-permed and re-colored but I'm still looking for the salon that offers a good perm, I only want the lose curls or wavy look then I'm planning a red hair. Seems like I have to save some bucks for my plans. :)

Anyhow, I'm back from a month long break. Hello hello! I've been busy with school as usual and with watching movies and tv series, I tend to only regularly update my twitter account. Sorry. :) 

I don't usually make outfit posts because believe it or not I'm not as confident as I tend to portray in the real world. But this post is different, I will now start blogging about my outfits though don't expect too much because it will only be just once in a blue moon because I don't usually go out that often and my everyday look consists of a chef's jacket, pants, white shirt, a black crocs, without make up and my hair in a bun. Boring, I know but that's how I should show up in school! I have so much in store for this blog. I also plan to have more posts about food, the thing I love the most! Haha. I hope to post more often. Wish me luck about that! :) 

Regarding with this post, I actually got inspired with what I read on tumblr about blogging, that's why I made sure to post something tonight. It actually says...
"Blog like no one is reading. Type coming from the heart."

I so wish, I would always be inspired and eager to blog about certain things in my life. :)




Love,
