This one for my home girls

Just the other night .. I spent a great time chatting with my home girls :) Then today .. thoughts of them .. came flooding in my mind ... flashbacks of my secondary school days as 'The Saints' ... made me smile from ear to ear ...memories of sports’ days, hanging out in the school library, after school activities, etc .. etc … but what really made sat down and go on You Tube .. was the Talentime shows … So here is one for my girls ! They know who they are ;) Any of you girls got pixs from our participating years in the Talentime show ?? ... Do NOT put them in FB ! Missing all of you very much! xox

I am one year old today!

I’m one year old today … well not me actually … but my blog .. and through blogging I’ve made new friends .. and kept in touch with my old friends .. I was apprehensive at first to start a blog tht would be viewed by anybody on the www .. it’s like letting everyone have a window to peek into my life … but in the end it all boiled down to the fact tht whatever is being written in my blog … lies in my own hands (well unless Miss J decides to put her piece in it) .. therefore … to let ppl see or not see what is about to happen … is happening .. happened in my world … it is all up to me … hence Snapshots of Ms eNVy’s World was born on the 20th of July 2007.

How I achieved 10 mins of peace this morning ...

by serving my kids breakfast .. with something they have been longing to eat ... but there was just no way of me knowing where to get it fresh ... and how to cook it ( I just don't have the expertise to do so) .. So I found this on one of my visit to the Asian store last week ...


"chinese baguette" according to my kids ..

although it is not freshly made ... like the way they did back home ... but I know my kids would surely love me for it; bribery works sometimes people ... I don't know what to call it ... I know my mom mentioned it once to me ... but for the life of me .. I just can't remember what it is called back home in Kota Kinabalu .... but my kids called it ' Chinese Baguette' ... guess it works for me .. anyways when I saw it in the freezer section of the store ... I bought two packs of it ... and hoping tht the taste will be good enough for my kids ....


my kids love it with kaya & butter

So this morning was a test .. called them for breakfast .... and served it hot with kaya and butter spread on it ... and guess the taste was great ... because I couldn't hear anything for 10 mins ... it was so peaceful ... and I was a happy mom ... for 10 mins ... until I hear .. "Mom .. is there anymore of the chinese baguette?" ...

Blueberry Tart ...

Received about 1lb of blueberries from my sis .. wanted to make blueberry cheesecake .. unfortunately my little girl is not really into 'cheesy cake' .. so we decided to make fresh blueberry tart instead ... after perusing Gert's My Kitchen Snippets .. found a recipe tht was easy to follow and it was on for myself and my little girl to make a fresh blueberry tart ... It took us a while to make ... and I cheated a bit .. I used a prebaked tart shell :) But the fresh blueberry tart was a hit .. So .. thanks to My Kitchen Snippets I made a little girl very happy!


Putting in the custard ..

now ... blueberries go on top of the custard

Nearly finished blueberry tart .. mommy will do the glazing next ..
