Practice Makes Perfect!

A phrase I used to repeat to myself as I spent hours solving Mathematical problems in school. There is no magic formula when it comes to Math - the more you practice, the better you get. Of course, a firm grasp of the concepts is also essential. I used to practise over and over again to the point I could remember the next question in the "10-Years Series". In my mind, there would be a photographic image of the next page even.

Bearing this in mind, I decided to attempt "Pick Me Up!" for the second time. This time round, I halved my ingredients and stopped by Cold Storage to get the Marsala wine for an authentic Italian recipe. I also brought out the electric mixer my mum stowed away in the kitchen cabinets - hoping it would aid me in creating the effect I much needed. I think it did =) (although it looked weird in a bowl like this - mum has such a lack of baking utensils.)

Mummy was the first to try my tiramisu. She liked it and said it tasted better the second time round. But when I had a taste, I was rather disappointed - it was too dry. I wonder what the remaining critics would say when they try a slice later tonight.

I suppose third time's a charm then. So I've got another chance! =)
