Pear and Chocolate cake with Ice-cream

Chocolate Meringues

Lemon drizzle cake with ice-cream

Braised Wagyu Beef cheeks

Mushroom soup

Above are some pictures of the recent baking and dinning sessions.

Instead of throwing a huge house-warming party, Hub and I have been hosting a series of small group dinners for our friends for the past weeks. And I've been cooking and baking for every weekend for the past 6 weeks or so.

Although it has been fun getting accustomed with my new oven, hob and hood. I'm getting a little tired of cooking and cleaning continuously for the past weeks. Some dinners were held on Fridays, which mean that I've got to start preparation from Wednesdays and there were times when I had to cook soup/bake desserts on the day before until 1.30 am, so that my guests would have something decent to eat.

I need to "close shop" for 2 weeks to recuperate!

May I please get to know you better? May I please have your phone number? May I please know how one goes about getting invited to your house? May I please... if the above are not acceptable, have your braised wagyu beef recipe? Ummmm... please.

Haha! Many of the dinners looked better than they tasted! There was a reason why I spent some effort in presentation 'cos since the food didn't taste that great, so the least I could do was to make them look good! I'll share the recipe of the Beef cheeks soon! ;p
