Carrot and Corn Rice

It was my day to empty my refrigerator, the way hidden stuff comes out ,gets used or makes its way to the bin. However, this dish is just an innovation of my leftovers with very basic ingredients, which now has become an instant filler when nothing crosses your mind.

Chocolate - Banana Cake

Do bananas sitting over the counter stir the baker's rush?? Perhaps it does for me. There should always be 2 leftover bananas that should smile back at me from a bunch - and all I can think of at that moment is a banana cake - I guess I should start thinking out of the box.. and here I begin with a Chocolate banana cake.

Happy Birthday Aditeya !!

UAE celebrates its 41st National Day, Schools closed since friday.........we have a long weekend and it is festive all around. And here I celebrate my son's 12th birthday....time sure flies.....he has grown..........no demands - happy with the new PS3 game he got as gift.
No birthday goes by without a cake and here is what I baked for him - Topping with Ferrero Rocher Chocolates was his idea , so to mark the 12th birthday - I managed to place 12 of them ......
The cake inside is 2 9" chocolate sponge , soaked in coffee and kahlua. I made a batch of Swiss Meringue Buttercream and  this time I owe it to the cool weather here in Fujairah. Never before have I got such a smooth,glossy and silky  butter cream.
I repeat what I wrote on facebook this morning......
12 years today, all grown,clear about choices..know too well how to get ur things done by me,even naming me your "helpful device"....one thing that has not changed is that ur still n always will be my bumble bee....Happy birthday Aditeya....much love n hugs !!god bless u n keep u safe always !!
Some day we will read this together and share a smile ..:)
