Udah lama ngak update blogger nih tangan jadi gatel gini pengen ngapdet, my baby has been sick for a week,kebetulan kemarin tanggal 2 sept di sini Fathers day and Ellyn udah feeling a bit better, bisa ditinggal ke dapur ya udah deh jadinya bikin Chocolate Cup Cakes, while she watched her dvd Einstein(her favorite), pertama aku bikin Cup Cakesnya dulu, trus sambil nunggu dingin,aku buat beberapa simpe flowers from sugarpaste, dilanjut bikin ganache, wah rasanya seneng banget karena hasil dan rasanya mantap, dari kemarin-kemarin ga ada waktu bikin apa-apa sih.

So abis aku kasih kado untuk suami, kita makan Cup Cakes sama Cappucino di dapur ( dia agak kaget gitu pas aku kasih kado), mungkin lupa kalo hari itu adalah Fathers day, kayaknya waktu mothers day aku yang ngingetin dia deh, hehehe.
