Have a Cobbler of the Cherries
Here’s a picture of the cherry cobbler that my Mom and I made for dessert the other day:
Mmmmmm… that cherry cobbler was good stuff. π
Operation Cookie Fun Time
My Mom and I were baking a batch of peanut butter cookies the other day. I’d say we did a good job doing that. π
My Super Happy Birthday Celebration
My birthday started off with some healthy morning breakfast that my sister Tomala made earlier this morning:
She cooked up some delicious chocolate oatmeal along with some warm buttered toast and mint chocolate tea. Then later this evening we went to a local restaurant in town and chowed down some burgers and fries along with some good boozy drinks for dinner on my birthday.
After we came home from dinner we had some scrumptious slices of cake with peanut butter frosting for dessert. Here’s a picture of my birthday cake:
It was a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting with miniature chocolate chips on the top, and there were five candles on the right side forming the number five because we don’t have a candle that’s shaped like the number five.
On that note, I’ve had a very wonderful birthday celebration today. π
Enjoy this 2-in-1 chocolate chip cookie
Last month my mother made some chocolate chip cookies, and I snapped a picture of two chocolate chip cookies that got stuck together as one:
Yeah, I’d thought that looked quite strange. π
Wednesday Evening Open Thread with my Latest Drawing
I’ve been helping my mother San_San in the kitchen making some cookie dough in the kitchen earlier this afternoon after I got done watching TV, and I thought I’d get that out of the way so that she can make peanut butter cookies for dessert since she already made chocolate chip cookies the other day.
Then we enjoyed some seafood-related dinner later this evening which is clam chowder and salmon sandwiches, and after I’m all done with dinner I created my own drawing of Goro, the notoriously evil Shokan prince from the Mortal Kombat series:
I also uploaded this picture on Steam if anybody would like to check it out from there.
I drew a thing that includes Desserts and Love
Nothing major to report on tonight. Here’s tonight’s pic of what I drew in honor of one of our family members whose favorite desserts are cookies and ice cream:
Yep, those two things make a sweet happy couple. π
More Fun in the Kitchen
San_San taught me how to make apple pie and lemonade in the kitchen this rainy evening. I was using the peeler to peel the skins off the apples and pears so that I can use the food processor to easily slice them up, and I placed all the sliced apples and pears in a clear large bowl and then add a few ingredients such as nutmeg, cinnamon and a dash of salt.
Next thing I have to do is use a wooden spatula to mix up the ingredients until they’re fully covered in nutmeg and cinnamon, and then we put all the apples and pears in the pie covered the top of it with crispy crust especially around the edges. After the pie was baking in the oven for about 40 minutes we moved on to making lemonade, and while San is squeezing lemons to add lemon juice in a medium-sized glass measuring cup I added some sugar in the water from a small glass measuring cup was warmed up in the microwave for 2 minutes and slowly stirred it with a metal whisk until the sugar water is completely clear.
Then once that’s done we used another medium-sized glass measuring cup to fill up about a half a cup of water because there’s no measurements at the very bottom so we’re gonna have to eyeball it to make sure it was the right amount so that I can pour it all into the lemon juice and then place it in the refrigerator for a sweet, cold lemonade taste.
It’s always fun to be a chef around the house. π
Saturday Open Thread
It was a fairly decent day this evening. San_San and I went out apple picking yesterday at our friendly person’s yard from across the street, and San made us some delicious chicken, mashed potatoes and green beans for dinner. π She also made apple crisp for dessert. Here’s a picture of the apple crisp:
After eating dinner and dessert with my family I decided to play a bit of Poker Night at the Inventory, and I managed to get two TF2 items which are a badge and a gun after winning the Poker Night tournament:
Now I can go play Good Cop/Bad Cop in the TF2 world. π

A perfect birthday cake for me
Since my upcoming birthday will begin in less than a week, I thought I’d share this recipe video of a peanut butter cup cake from The Rachael Ray Show. It’s a cake with peanut butter cream cheese frosting, chocolate ganache and some chopped chocolate peanut butter cups on top.
Now this will be my birthday cake. π
