sharing and caring.

Eelaaaaine!
She's in Penang at the moment. And unfortunately, so is her camera.
Aan-knee-weiz...

Yesterday. I couldn't wake up. After reading Aunty Bernadette's book until two in the morning. But I managed to get to Eelaine's on time. Carmen was already there. Li Hui was going to be late.
We didn't start without her. As if we even wanted to start. So what did we do?
Held StoryTime! I love our StoryTimes. :) Carmen had a shocking one to share. X) And Eelaine's was so cutee! (It's his birthday today! Must give those Kisses.) Then Li Hui called. She couldn't find her way to Eelaine's house, so we had to go pick her up at the taman.

Me, Eelaine, Carmen, Li Hui

Eh, do you guys know where 81 is?

No...didn't she say which taman?

Huh? How many tamans are there?

Maybe it's this one...this is 80...

Wait...what car does she have?

Some big black car, I think.

I don't see a big black car anywhere.

Are you sure it's this taman?

Maybe we should call her and ask her to come out of her car.

*Sammie calls Li Hui.

Hello? Li Hui? Are you at the taman?

Yes, I'm here.

Huh? Really? We're here, too.

Really? I can't see you all.

Err...can you come out of your car?

Oh okay. *Ends call.

She said she's coming out of the car.

I don't see her...

Oh no. I think we got the wrong taman.

Wait, she said she's near Yew Ee, right? Is the other taman there?

Oh yeah...it is...

We better hurry, her dad sounded mad...

Oh no, what if we got her in trouble?

We finally found her. (Li Hui, your dad is scary.)

Went back to Eelaine's house. Then Li Hui told her camp stories! Okay, then we finally started on our project.

Started cutting up whacking the gula melaka on the cutting board while it was stuck on the knife. Carmen managed to cut her finger as well. Took turns to fry the peanuts. Eelaine's mom came in while it was Li Hui's turn and turned up the fire. Which burned the peanuts. (No offence, but your mom really doesn't know how to make fah sang paeng, Eelaine.) Carmen and I at least had some cooking experience.

Then we made the onde-onde dough and started putting in the gula melaka pieces. Well, more pieces went into our mouths than the dough. X) Yum. Then we started shelling the peanuts before deciding to go for lunch.

Eelaine's mom: So, do you girls want to go for lunch already?

Yes, I'm starving!

No, I ate too much gula melaka.

Eelaine and Carmen had to drag Li Hui and I away from the peanuts to get us to go for lunch. XP While we waited for Eelaine's mom, Carmen, Li Hui and I got a good look at his house. :) We couldn't make enough noise for him to come out though.

Then we went to McD's for lunch. McValue Meals are so over-priced. Oi, the cashier was not flirting with me, okay. =.=" And we saw Pn. Ting, Kerwin, one of Li Hui's tuiton friends (who thought we were sisters? :P), Sheng Yong and Cherissa! :) We had lunch upstairs. Then we started camwhoring in the playground. XP And all the little kids started laughing and talking about us. XD

After that we walked to SaveMart. Imagine yourself as one of the SaveMart workers. What would you think if you saw four crazy girls posing with packs of peanuts, flour and milk? ROFL. XD Then we walked back to Eelaine's house. How we managed to get back when none of us had any sense of direction is up to you to figure out. We started shelling peanuts as we watched TV. :) We were so behind schedule.

After that, we actually made the onde-onde, peanut cookies and started on the apam balik flour. The onde-onde and peanut cookies were okay. Then Li Hui had to go. (See you tomorrow!), and we started on the apam balik.

That was a complete disaster. I'm never using the recipe again. Ever. We had to add so much more water and milk than stated and it was still so rubbery. But at least Eelaine made it look okay, and the excessive sugar, peanuts and corn made it taste better. X)

Then I had to go homee. With all my baking stuff, saving Eelaine the hassle of bringing it on Monday. :) Have fun in Penang, dear. We'll demand to know all about it when school reopens. =P

Omigosh, school's reopening.

I think we wasted most of our time talking about PeaNuts and Gene and Watermelons and Gene and Basketball and everything else. X) But, at least we know each other better.

Carmen. I checked. He posted. After your post. Now you can go omigosh.

I feel like baking a cheeezecake! You guys were right. Whoever marries me is going to be so lucky. XD

What's wrong with me?

Wish I was so over it.

Well, now she's hooked on you too. See the kind of things you do.

See the kind of hurt you're going to cause for us.

And you don't even know, do you?
