It was Saturday afternoon. We finished our weekend chores and PK went to the bedroom for his nap. I cannot take naps I don’t know why so I was watching videos on Youtube & stumbled upon a 5 ingredients cake recipe. I decided to bake heart shaped cupcakes instead of big cake for PK, just to surprise him when he will wake up from his nap. So, I gathered the ingredients and started mixing & baking vanilla cupcakes with chocolate chips on the top. I even arranged chocolate chips in letter “P” on one of the cupcakes. Keeping the cupcakes in oven, I went to get ready to go for Sydney Vivid Show.
PK woke up from his nap before the cupcakes were ready, so the surprise was already gone. After few minutes he came in the bathroom where I was getting ready asking me how long for the cupcakes to bake?? We opened the oven, took out the cupcakes and they were burnt. Like literally burnt & dry. I was using the timer of 45 minutes to bake cupcakes but actually it takes 45 minutes to bake a whole cake & 15-20 minutes for cupcakes. Leaving the cupcakes on the bench top, we left home for Vivid show. Next morning the cupcakes turned into a hard stone 😀
The show was beautiful. No words absolutely. Here are some pictures that we clicked while eating our gourmet wraps that we bought from nearby food stall. Enjoy!!
We were there Saturday too 🙂

Reminded me of the great times I had in OZ.. you know there is that yellow boat ride the speed boat, we took right there and it stopped suddenly and my cousin actually flew OUT 🙂 and fell , although he had all the life jacket etc and everything he was safe but all we could hear was SHARK SHARK .. we did not know whether to laugh or help him he he he he
My sis keeps asking me to visit again and these pic are making my decisions to go again to Oz easier 🙂
You had a good time .. so when you baking the cup cakes again ..
ya ya Jet boating, my God Bikram!! so scary.. Poor your cousin, I would have died in the water that very second just because of shock 😦
This reminds me of one incident when my dad took everyone for banana boat ride and the banana literally turned upside down and everyone fell in the water including our neighbor’s daughter!! I should write a post about it!!!

and oh yes God willing surly visit and what more can a punjabi ask for a mate to drink with and Chicken 🙂

The show looks amazing! And the remedy for burnt cakes- scrape off the blackish parts and crumble the rest into some not-so-firm ice cream. Yumm…
Oh thank you Ada 🙂
I found this remedy on google as well but my cupcakes were way to dry, hard like a stone 😦
Gosh it happens ya..guess the show made u forget the cup cakes..still it looks yum! Hope next tym there won’t be untoward surprise.
