May this box brightens a child's day somewhere in SEA/Pacific. XDIt was quite fun filling the shoebox up with Min!! The space was somewhat limited though, since there were simply so many things we wanted to throw in!! LOL.
Anyhow, Min's finally flying home for the summer hols. Man, I wish I could go with her too!!! *sniffs* (I'm sure gonna miss having that little bugger around. =P)
And so, to "celebrate" her last day in Melbourne (well not exactly last, as she's comng back next March....but you know what I mean =P), Min and I decided to do a little baking. Since it was her first time helping me out in the kitchen, the results were nothing short of hilarious. We were like kids in a candy shop - preparing, mixing the ingredients, forming dough, and shaping them into logs, all the while bantering and making one heck of a mess on the table (much to my uncle's angst!) LOL. So far, we've made a batch of hazelnut shortbread - it's my first go at the recipe too, so hopefully they'll turn out fine!!! XD The dough's in the fridge at the mo....will bake them once it's firm.
Love how my fingers currently smell of vanilla, butter and hazelnuts.... ^_^
Will be right back!!

66% success rate (coz I burnt the first 1/3 of the cookie batch!!) LOL.
