since today is friday and the first day of a long weekend. Zyun has decided to bake some cookies
Note:
(in case u did not know... zyun does not cook/bake/iron/wash ever since she made tasteless meals/ a cake which resembles the lowest of living organisms/ wrecked her clothes either through washing or/and ironing so if you do not have anything encouraging to say... don't say a word!)
so anyway. i came home, showered found a nice cookie recipe and went to buy ingredients. and after buying them back. i reailsed i bought like practically half of the amount of chocs that was needed. (damn u american measurent crap) so i had to reduce everything by half. and that kinda messed me up cos i put into like the original amount of baking soda. thankfully that did not affect the cookies much. as far as i can tell.
so part of the procedure was to melt the chocolate. now u might think that that is easy. and guess what? i screwed it up. i burnt the choc. then in hope to melt it... i chucked it into the microwave without the lid thinking what's a few minutes without the lid gonna do to the chocolate? it turns out that it makes ur chocolate dry. so instead of melting it further. i solidified it. so being deperate. i added some milk and mixed it so that it looks...almost but not quite, like melted choc.
about 1 hour later. i found out that that was a mistake as well. cos now the bloody batter thing is so vicous that instead of making many cookies. i made one big weird shaped cookie with holes in the middle.
oh and that was not the worst part. i accidentally left the first batch on a little longer than i should have... and they were burnt. oh btw, if you thought that the tv was dramatic when the people open the oven and smoke comes out and swallow them up? it's not exaggeration.
