Life must go on

TSW can be incapacitating. For weeks I left the children on their own. I couldn't monitor their work, read or play with them. TSW depletes my energy completely. I feel like I am recovering from a major operation. I feel so ill.... 

However I refuse to succumb to this TSW beast. With whatever little energy I have , I ensure that life is as usual (especially for the children). Mummy can still bake and cook.... Mummy is still there no matter what.  I am glad over the last one and a half months of horrendous withdrawal, I could still whip out the following for them:  

OREO CHEESECAKE:
I like this combination. Yummy and ice-creamy

CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE WITH PECAN TOPPINGS:
Mum likes the nuts

CHANTAL CHEESECAKE:
Asher's all time favourite 

 STRAWBERRY DENSE CAKE: 
Great if you have excess frozen strawberries 

ALMOND CAKE: 
Kinda sweet. 
Should be quite similar to the Galician almond tart (Tarta de Santiago) 

 

NUTS BREAD:
Nutty

ITALIAN POTATO FLAT BREAD: 
Love this! So yummy with balsamic vinegar and olive oil  

SOFT BUNS (HOT DOGS AND LUNCHEON MEAT):
All kids love these (so glad!) Took me a morning to prepare (with all the proofing). 
But worth it!

SEAFOOD FILLING

 HOMEMADE NOODLES:
No preservatives. How much better can it get?  

HOMEMADE BAN MIAN:

All my kids love this. 
Ashley likes the noodles (How glad! It is so hard to get her to eat anything)

I think it is DTF's standard
