Grandpa's 88th Birthday
 I was not suppose to bake on the eve before leaving for my vacation, but at the eleventh hour I couldn't resist making something for my grandpa who was to celebrate his 88th birthday on the coming weekend. Like the old saying, it's the thought that counts. It was meant to be the white and dark chocolate mousse cake. As I was working thru the ingredients, no surprise to see that the white chocolate has just passed the expiry. Heartache. It ended up being dark chocolate mousse cake. You know, it's the thought that counts... (keke)  Black and White Chocolate Mousse Cake Adapted from Alex Goh?s Baking Code Bake a 18cm round cake using this recipe or your favourite recipe.

Keep cake in fridge until the mousse set (about 1 hour depending on fridge)Place the 2nd piece of cake over the dark mousse.Add white choc mousse.Refrigerate again until the mousse set.To assemble: I save time by putting the cake in the freezer. My family will be away for the vacation but I couldn't resist making My mum comes from a humougous family... and I never keen to bake anything for anyone in her clan. On the positive note, I decline to bake for them citing the huge family; I do not want to set a precedent or an expectation. Secretly, I believe my unwillingness has more to do with my unpleasant childhood memories of these relatives. I still recalled as a primary scholler, one of them blatantly said that I must be so happy over his son's poor results so that I can be the king in kingdom of blind. Another one told me no need for me to work hard cos my poor parents won't be able to afford my education. The 3rd concluded that discussion that I will be better off learning to do some houseworks so that I can at least get a job as chambermaid or dishwasher. School holidays are always stressful; I got asked about my results 1001 times by different aunties and uncles. Despite being the top quartile in my studies, I still kena "suan" mercilessly for any subject that is less than sterling. They could be just joking but it left a permanent negative impact on me... always wanting to do better, always eager to please. Only grandpa is different.
