Whenever there is a special occasion to celebrate, I would almost always buy the food or ask someone to cook. That had changed now that I finally have the time to learn and practice in the kitchen. That is good news for a mom like me because I can already tell that I can save cooking on my own than buying.
Yesterday my husband turned 42 and because I now know how to bake, I made these beautiful cupcakes. I love that red frosting which I am slowly learning how to make. Hit or miss but will one day be perfecting it.
Here you can see four different kind of food I cooked on my own. I used to buy all of these before. I couldn't believe it that I am now writing about how I managed not to buy from stores and make them from scratch. I made a chocolate cake and let the kids decorate it with a guitar. We had fun making the pizza with an unusual number shape. I also cooked the chicken wings and the pancit noodle dish. The experience was fun because my kids are my little helpers. I am happy to see them get busy and commend my cooking hahaha. Everything I cook gets a big thumbs up from them.
It was tiring but fulfilling. I couldn't believe the progress I made on my cooking and organization skills really unbelievable improvement.
