Chocolate Chip Cookies

April 30, 2011

Late last year, Miss E brought back from school... the list of 'electives' subjects, for students to choose for the following year. Since she is in the Music Programme... she was limited to two electives. She decided to do Home Economics and Photography, as her elective subjects. Was I surprise? No... I 'kind of' expected that she would picked up these two subjects...the little girl who wants to grow up and be "like you MOM"...so she said

They would cook or bake something... and everytime, she'd bring home some for us to taste ... but sometimes when she made something nice like these Chocolate Chip Cookies ....

"Mom... the cookies were so good that I finished them all...sorry..." with her Cheshire cat smile . "but I'll bake some during the school holidays...OK?"

and here she is... baking her cookies for us...

She did everything ... I only helped her with the oven and of course cleaning up afterwards... oh! taking photographs as well...

Carefully ... she placed them onto the baking trays...

She was looking forward to sink her teeth into this Ginormous Cookies...

but.... it broke...in transition, from baking tray to cooling rack

who is the culprit????
