A big loaf

 

I experimented with letting the bread rise over night in the fridge. :)
And It's a 1:1 ratio with durum wheat flour and all purpose flour.

Creepy Crawly Sushi


Sushi for lunch. And yes, those are real crab pincers you see there. Real tiny pincers. I got them when I was in Bangkok over the summer. The locals eat tiny crabs as a snack. Very crunchy, sweet, salty and spicy. They add a creepy crawly look to the rather normal looking sushi that I made! hahaha
Sushi filling includes bean sprouts, fried eggs and pork meat floss (which I also got from Bangkok!). They tasted good! But I do need to work on making them look tastier!! :P

Pomer-Limeade Ice Tea


Anything in a mason jar looks delicious and homemade, well, at least to me. I got myself 12 of these jars and I can't wait for Christmas to come round so I can fill them up with goodies and send them off as gifts!
In this mason jar, we have a refreshing ice tea that matches my pink nails! woohoo! It's a pomegranate limeade ice tea.
Pomegranates are such a beautiful fruit, inside and out. It not only looks good, but it's yummy and healthy too! This is my kind of fruit!! :)

Granola and Cashew Ice Cream


Made some healthy granola! It's packed with rolled oats, cashews, almonds, black and white sesame seeds, raisins, sunflower seeds, honey, cinnamon, and coconut oil! Mum's been telling me about all the health benefits of coconut oil, so I have to try it out and so I made this! :D

Me giving the granola a taste test! I like how the sesame seeds float to the top.
I think it's pretty! 

Bottle it up for a good-looking gift! 

Oh and here's the cashew ice cream that you must be wondering about. It's a vegan ice cream recipe that I got online and modified it to the ingredients I had on hand. So there's actually no milk, no cream in here. Just pure cashews (soaked over night), honey, juice of 2 limes, a peach (not sure why I added the peach..), soy milk and not forgetting COCONUT OIL to please mama!! :D The freshly baked granola added a nice crunch to the ice cream.
