last week, my new colleague was told to make five big trays of brownies. it was her first attempt in making such a huge quantity. the amount was so great that she had to do it twice to complete the trays. half hr after she sent the first two trays into the oven, she realisd that she took only half the number of eggs n half the amt of sugar that was called for in the recipe. panic panic panic. yes, three of us stopped wat we were doing n helped her with the scond batch of brownies. all the borwnies turned out fine. but the first batch were too crumbly. i can't even lift it up coz it'll break. so today i had to clear this whole lot of brownies (to serve it as french pastries in the buffet) today. the brownies were used for a wedding ceremony on saturday night. so the event's over n we have the remaining brownies so we'll clear it.

anyway, i had about 10kg of this stuff which was too crumbly. guess wat i did. i threw all of this into a mixing bowl n crumbled it further. then i fill two big trays with this crumble to half full n left it in the freezer to freeze. the idea here was to churn this lot of crumble into a brownie base of course, i had to use my hands to squeeze them together. no holes. then i made choc mousse n pour into these half full trays n tmrw i'll glaze the top n cut into bite sized pieces of brownie mousse. not bad an idea. no wastage at all.

in the last 1.5 weeks i've been pretty ill. took too long a time to recover from flu. i finished all my medicine but it didnt seem to work. anyway, i'm ok now. yesterday had my first jog in ten days n i nearly died along the way. felt like my lungs were abt to burst. however, this morning when i went for my jog, i felt good.

oops! gotta go now. someone's coming to fix the printer. take care folks!
