of polka dots and house party and oven baked goodies

it was mel's bday last thursday and seeing that eating out is a little too common-predictable-boring, we decided to have a house party.

good food, homey ambience, fluffy carpet, lazing around on the couch and bean bags, chatting casually and laughing loudly without worrying about the neighbouring table, flexible time, dun have to scream when u talk to people at the other end of the table - that's what we have in mind. but somehow, we (i mean I) forgot about the cooking =.=

Photobucket
and by the time i realized that food is required in house party, it was a little too late for me to convince mel to eat out
Photobucket
because she had already compiled a stack of new recipes she was too eager to try out. and i did not dare to not have a house party

Photobucket
pot roast
pasta
mousaka
mashed potato
sushi
roast chicken
plenty of drinks
Photobucket
we managed to pull it off. but let's simply put it this way - i made the roast chicken, mel did everything else, so let's eat out next year my dear. dun worry about the table next to us. and it's okay to shout when you talk. really

and as usual, the birthday girl din get a say on her birthday cake.
Photobucket
nobody had a say
Photobucket
because i become pretty frantic when it comes to baking and i guess nobody - i mean NOBODY dare to say 'leave my cake alone'
Photobucket
yes i am that scary when it comes to baking
Photobucket
but fear not, i am having this let-people-decide-about-their-cake-therapy at the moment
Photobucket
and i think i am i getting better =D
Photobucket
but meanwhile, i will keep on baking.
Photobucket
and this my dear friends, is a cheesecake infused with flavourful aromatic lemon and orange zest
Photobucket
and this is the cherry topping to go with the yummylicious cheesecake
Photobucket
and this is my cheesecake post-trimming.
Photobucket
and this is what happen when the cherry and cheesecake become one
Photobucket

it's seductively inviting.

NO?

but because i dun like cheese, the seductive factor only affected me until i sliced it up. which i believed is a good thing. because 5 tubs of creamcheese are not sth everybody can handle :P

No i am not asking you not to try this out. it would be you biggest mistake if you didn't.

so go ahead and visit your happy land. (recipe)

life is too short
