Fast & Easy Fried Noodles


Its the weekend! End of the week already and a new week is starting. Time really flies and its so scary, hahahha. 

Today decided to change my menu as it was raining the whole day since late morning. The weather is so cold and comfy that I even took a short nap before cooking dinner.

I have bookmarked this recipe for a while and since the cold weather has made me kinda lazy, what better day to cook this then. So here we go, and I was also craving some noodles (from watching too much Jinny Kitchen) 


I am using this noodles, as such I tweak the recipe a bit. If you are using those thicker kind of dry noodles then can consider to follow the cookidoo exactly. 

I love the seasoning of this noodles, it is jus nicely flavoured and not overly salty. With the non-fried noodles, I am quite comfortable to cook them once a while for the family as an indulgence ❤️

My 1st Father's Day Cake

Yesterday was Father's Day, and I have been pondering for the past few weeks on what should I bake?? *scratch head* I was thinking of a devilish Chocolate Cake so I could submit to my friend's blog for the Aspiring Baker thingy but ended up didnt as could be too chocolately for Hubby. Or perhaps a Fondant Cake with shirt and tie but also ended up didnt. So I decided on a Chocolate Sponge top with Chocolate Ganache and decorated with Fondant Hearts, small tie for the deco.
Hubby and all says it was yummy and it really makes me feel the effort was all worth it. And I have made a mental note to beautifully decorate the rest of all my cakes. In a way to also practise practise for my piping, and decorating abilities..



As i combined a lot of recipes for this time round, I wont be posting any recipes link cos very messy. I use the Spongemix for the Choc Sponge, uses the ganache from another link etc. And since I had some time, I made the Oreo Butter cake again for my mum & sis again. =)
