My Wish List

Saturday, January 23, 2010

In a cheesy mood...

Feeling somewhat accomplished today... Woke up late, nearly mid day, then contemplated long and hard what to make for breakfast. Then remembered, I have a electric mixer now!!! I can make super fluffy pancakes!!!... So whipped up a plate of pancakes... too many for me to finish, so still have a couple to finish off maybe for dinner...



Gluten-free, butter pancakes made with organic eggs... mmm...

Thoroughly delish. Along with a home-made cup of Starbucks House Blend latte. Then took medicine and rested a little while waiting for my dizzy weak spell to pass... wonder if it's from being sick or taking the medicine?! Or maybe from both =(

Later in the afternoon, finally started on my NY Baked Cheesecake. Super simple. If this turns out yummy, I'm going to be making it all the time. Then I'll turn into a hippo >;P  But food is good for the soul! I only made half the recipe, as my oven's not big enough to fit a full size cake pan. Also it allows me to use the ingredients to make another cheesecake next weekend ;) What flavour should I make?!


Pre-baking.
Lucky the cheesecake didn't take long to prepare as I went into another dizzy/weak spell just as I poured the mix into the pan. Sick, but pushing myself just a little. Sleeping in bed all day would be such a humongous waste of time!


Baked Cheesecake settling down...

I hope it turns out ok. Will have to wait till tomorrow morning to taste. Being sick turns you off even the nicest of foods!!! I did bake it slightly longer than stated, as my mini oven temperature is not very stable. Baked it with only the lower heaters on for most of the baking time, then turned it to have both lower and upper heaters on towards the end of baking. Hopefully that way the top layer won't be too dried up, as there's only about 10cm on top and 10cm below the pan and the heaters.

Thinks it's medicine time again. Waking up late seriously screws up medicine-taking timing!!! My "breakfast dose" was at 2pm, now 7pm going to have my "lunch-time dose" and "dinner dose"?! Midnight?! eeks! Tomorrow must try to wake up earlier for medicine sake.
