ILAH FAREWELL......
TODAY also is the mid-autumn festival... MOONCAKES YUMMY YUMMY......
This September celebration gives everyone the green light to go mooncake nutty as this is the only time of the year the cakes are available. However, these little cakes weren't always associated with brightly lit lanterns and happy family reunions. The most commonly seen mooncakes are soft pure lotus paste compactly wrapped in smooth golden brown pastry. Lotus paste is actually a combination of lotus seed and lye water boiled and blended into apaste. The addition of peanut oil and cooked glutinous rice flour result in a sticky paste which is then rolled into a ball, clothed with a well-mixed dough and stamped with an intricate pattern.
Mooncakes either come plain or with one, two, even up to four salted egg yolks tucked snugly in lotus paste filling. The ones with single egg yolk are thought to represent the loneliness of the Chinese goddess Chang Er who flew to the moon to escape the clutches of her husband.
Apart from egg yolks, some lotus paste fillings are also sprinkled with assorted nuts, fruits and even ham bits. This has always been a favourite with older Chinese folks. The immense popularity of mooncakes have inspired many new recipes, one of which is the non-baked version with soft chilled pastry. Best kept refrigeratedand eaten cold, these mooncakes come in incredibly imaginative flavours like strawberry, orange, pandan, banana, lemon, and even milk. While regular mooncakes are smooth, soft and slightly sticky, special Shanghai mooncakes are loved for its crunchy pastry. With a lovely aroma of butter, they come in an imperfectly shaped ball with shiny glazed brown 'skin' that doesn't crack easily despite its crispiness. The incorporation of local and Japanese elements into the mooncake is apparent with the births of the durian and green tea mooncakes. Even ice cream parlours are getting into the game by introducing kiddie-friendly ice cream mooncakes - ice cream coated with a sweet chocolate crust bearing similar Chinese-like patterns. With the latest mooncake additions of jelly and Garfield-shaped mooncakes, one wonders if, in the race to tap into untouched mooncake markets,

topic of today: wad blogs are for??
well, have u thought of y u wan to keep a blog??
reasons:
- its a 'IN' thingy...
- technology improving(writing email instead of sending letter)
- so have online journal instead of using hand write...
- sharing my feeling wif my friends
- let them know how i am getting on
but blogs can oso affect ppl's relationship... if u r not happy wif one person, u can write like i am very angry wif A... how can he do this kind of thing... then ppl reading this entry will be guessing hu u r refering to... fr here u can see ppl take blog very seriously... so its better to be more careful of wad u have to write... u maybe hurting someone's feeling which u nv know... and better be careful of the words and the topic u use... there's once this blogger hu blogged abt some political issue and is sued...as for me, i keep blog seriously juz to keep it as a online journal... i dun wish to create any unhappiness in any of my entry... u shld keep the good memories and throw the 'not so good' memories aside... so tt when u come back to read wad u have done for the past yr, u will oso be able to remember the good things and not remebering the bad things...
