Never Ending Baking in the Land Below the Wind

Baking is my never ending passion (or addiction?) regardless of where i am in this world, or how busy i am. And, secretly, for this reason, Hubby gets very upset with me sometimes, coz he thinks they're unnecessary at most times (which i do agree :-P) and he becomes paranoid when i stress myself over the border to bake something which people may not appreciate. One addiction which i would have trouble kicking off?

Just arrived early this morning from our busy exhausting trip home from KK. Took the midnight MAS flight from KL after spending a half day detour around Sunway Pyramid and The Curve. Amazing how we could actually fit everything into less than a day.

Wedding banquet and ceremony at church was excellent, thanks to mom, dad and sisters for organising and helping. Maybe it's due to busi-ness, but i seemed to feel like time is always running short in KK. First week busy preparing and baking cakes for the wedding. Second week busy showing non-KKers around, and then it's time to fly off. Can't even find a proper time to trim and redo my hair, or shop for stuff like curry powders, rempahs and local foods.

Oh well, thank God everything went well. Honestly i couldn't ask for more.

Just a recap of the goodies i baked in KK during the first week specially for my own wedding. I know it sounds a bit perculiar or odd that the bride has to do her own bakings for her own wedding; but somehow in my case, it's not the money issue (infact it costs more to bake myself than ordering!!), rather i think in a way it's more special and trustworthy to do them myself. Very unnecessary, this i understand, but it's important to me. Really is.

So here they are, my poor guests had to be fed with kek lapis. Took me 4 days to finish them all. First day, Blueberry Cheese; Second day, Prune Lapis; Third Day, Peanut Butter Steamed Lapis and Fourth day; Haw Cheese Lapis. I baked some light cheesecakes as well, but didn't manage to snap a photo before they were sent off.

And, last but not least, here are the goodies i baked before i left home for our farewell lunch party on the 26th. Some tarts and Fruity Cheesecake.
