A cousin brought over a chocolate mousse cake she special ordered. Oooey gooey. Along with some lemon curd tarts her 7 year old daughter made. The crust was so flaky and buttery. She also got creative with adorning them with mini chocolate chips and shredded cheddar cheese, she's so cute

Eeeeeeiiiiih, Percy's taking food porn to another level!

Thanks, Susan. Oh ya ya ya, I read about your new toy... have lots of fun with it! Looking forward to even more exquisite photos from you! I'm thinking about getting an SLR, too. What'd you have for breakfast?

Special K porridge --- doesn't look too bad! How'd it taste?

My first time making ......blueberry streusel muffins

*Deborah*, you really think it looks tasty? Oh no, then I have failed miserably in this thread! It's sweet azuki porridge with some glass noodles... tastes fine but it definitely looks 'orrible in real life.

The good, the bad & ugly. Before: After: Sludge heaven, baby!

Yes, I just got this and it seems I'm a very messy person when it comes to making spritz-type cookies. Dough was all over the place and the first few cookies were truly horrible looking.

Oh yum, Lorna --- I'd eat that slice in a second! Some chocolate dipped sandwich cookies for us last night.

Baked up a batch of Jan Hagel Koekjes : Dutch Buttery Almond Shortbread Cookies, and had a couple for dessert with a gorgeous cup of Douwes Egberts coffee. Dutch cookies and coffee, good combination

Lieve Klary, Last night, in your honor, I baked these Jan Hagel Koekjes. Zoentjes, Yetty

Garnishes and go-withs? We like scallions, chopped shallots / regular yellow onion. Shredded Cheddar cheese, sour cream & chives to scatter and top our chili. Corn seems the way to go: cornbread, corn chips. Chili seems like it might be delicious as a baked potato topping. We like it on rice, too, but what other vehicles or accompaniments are good?

I think I'm in! Actually, the last time I made chili from scratch, which was about 5 years ago, my son said he'd like some hot dogs with the chili. Mind you, this was a teenaged Indonesian boy, who's never had or seen a chili dog in his life (yet).

Breakfast was truly break the fast at 5:45pm my time. I made up a batch of sweet, vanilla / almond flavored crepes, cooked them up with lots of French (Elle et Vire) butter so they'd have crispy edges. Just ate them folded up in quarters, unadorned; drank lovely Se Chi Chuan green tea. The last crepe I ate (and I'm not telling how many I did eat ) , I just slowly tore it into little bite-sized pieces before quickly popping them into my mouth. One tiny piece at a time.

Daniel, here are the two things : I didn't do the egg wash (had the little bowl right next to me, but completely forgot), and....... I didn't leave them in the oven long enough (they're suppossed to be deep golden brown, but due to personal preference, I do seem to like my puffs a bit on the pale side).. If you do decide to bake them, what will you fill them with?

Daniel, you're so funny! But I agree, Patrick is magnificent. I think you should try them, but don't make the two mistakes I made, can you tell what I didn't do?

Heheh, Tepee and I seem to be posting at around the same time with the same info. "I'm not sure about Malaysia, but here in Bandung, some food stalls open at around 4 pm. This is especially convenient for those of us who may be out of the home and/or too busy to prepare meals for the break or dinner. We just make our selections and have them packed up to take home in time for sunset, which is around 5:45 pm my time."

That's so funny,*Deborah*! I was snacking eating on these krupuk ikan: fish crackers/chips/crisps.

Peanut butter! It's supposed to be a secret ingredient in many chili recipes. And our ever gracious Marlene makes a fine peanut butter burger with it. Look here to see how she makes it.

Marvelous recipe, Chef Ong. Glorious height, absolutely glorious puffs. I can't wait to taste them.

^ ^ ^ What they said!

Any favorite ways to prepare, cook, and serve them? Sweet or savory?

I broke fast at Sushi Tei which just opened here in Bandung. After some yaki soba, I ordered Yukimi Daifuku for dessert. Teeny tiny bites of mochi ice cream in matcha, vanilla and chocolate flavors. I'm going back soon for more!

I snacked on those while eG boardwalking late last night. Simple pleasures, life is good.
