Dessert Comes First - Baking Demo

Since I was young - I've been fascinated with baking. I learned to love baking from my aunt - who makes THE best apple pie ever! She's one of my biggest influence when it comes to baking. At a young age - I remember enrolling at Sylvia Reynoso-Gala's Kids Baking class one summer. Than again the summer after. When I got to the later part of my elementary years in ICA - I became hooked on baking. Come high school - I was baking for special someones (Yes, that's correct - the way to the man's heart? - LITERALLY the stomach!)

I've been baking since I don't remember when. The only time I stopped? Well, you can ask my Panget about it. Ask him the reason why I don't bake anymore! And he will smile and just smile. Hahaha... Now, where was I? Anyways, I just started to bake again when I met Jenn Tan. Well you see, Jenn and I just met about a month or two ago. She's a friend of my Panget and surprisingly - a friend of my friend Oliver. The first time we met, we hit it off instantly - maybe because we were both madaldal.. :) A few weeks later, I learned that she is also fondof baking, thus - my used-to-be hobby 'baking' was kind of fascinating to me again.

Then while surfing and reading blogs (which I just found time now..) I came across the most recent entry of the foodie's blog that I frequent. Ever heard of Dessert Comes First ? Click on and see what I'm talking about. Although I'm not a foodie - I appreciate people who write about food! How I wish I could do the same! (I am very much biased of course!) Lo and Behold - she just announced that she will be having a Baking Demo!! With SHEER DELIGHT and ENTHUSIASM - I texted Jenn about it. To which she replied that she has read the entry - to which I replied back that I wanted to attend the demo, I asked her if she was game. Her answer?? SHE WAS GAME TOO!! Great!! That's like 2 weeks from now and, we're both excited as hell! :) We were like two kids who got their first taste of lollipop (or ice cream)!

I promised to bring my BlueBerry Cheesecake (the controversial cheesecake)

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
