cookie story
Sunday, December 21, 2008
` here goes my cookies story.

first, i thought of baking something for BD's bdae.
cupcakes/cookies...
but i thought alot of ppl had alr baked cupcakes for their loved ones on special occasions so it's nt tt special anymore.
thus i decided tt i wanna bake cookies for him, and with "Happy Birthday to U!" on it.
even though i din do any baking at all ever since e day i graduated frm sec...im still bent on baking cookies tis time round.
and my mom has been like pouring cold water on tis idea on mine n she deems tt it'll be a flop for sure n my cookies gonna turn out to be unfit for human consumption.
she still suggested tt i juz grab a pack of cookies off e shelves/queue for a pack @ Famous Amos, tt'll makes my life easier.
hw true it is! (u guys will noe y tis is so true later on.)
and to my horror, my dad jumped on e bandwagon too...
despite all tt, i wasn't deterred at all n i absolutely hav no qualms bot baking since i was in FNN during my upper sec days n my results weren't tt bad too. lols.
but but, it reali...turned out otherwise.
my first batch of cookies failed, thoroughly.
it's obviously over-baked....
sighs.
den i tried baking cheese cookies...i thought it's nice but tt's nt e case to others.
many says tt my plain cookies are better but still, "nt so nice lehs."
alright... im reali sad n kinda down alr cos i noe he wouldn't like it so much too.
den e time came, i laid out e cookies nicely on e table...meant as a surprise for him.
his reaction to tt was, "Cheyy, like tt only."
okie fine.
after eating it, he says straight into my face "这个不可以吃的。"
referring to e cheese cookies.
and off it went straight into e bin.
i fuckin swear tt i could feel my heart sank deep down to e bottom at tt instance.
my tears r juz in time to gush out of my teary eyes...
damn disappointed! and it hurts can!
but i noe he meant no harm n i shld hav expected tis kind of reaction alr...
cos my cookies reali suck to e core.
yes, serves mi right.
im juz having an itchy backside to hav decided to bake cookies for him.
nw i truly, deeply understand e meaing of 自讨苦吃。
i'll never, ever bake cookies for anyone, anymore.
RARRR!!
i seriously dun like baking (esp. so after tis incident)... and i believe tt im nt a baker-material.
n i took a bloody 8hrs (9hrs, including buyin of ingredients) to do all tt n it turns out tis way.
i still wanna bake some for my frens for Christmas...but u c, it's reali so-nt-possible huh. gawd.
so ppl, do consider carefully when u wanna bake something for ur loved ones...
let tis be a lesson learnt.
dun end up like mi, givin an unpleasant surprise to both my bf n I. =(
but still, thanz to those who hav helped mi in one way or another...
