Smiles of Satisfaction

"Hmmm. Something smells good," my eldest son was saying as he was descending the stairs of our house, from his room towards the kitchen. The kids are home since classes were suspended for a week to give time to help people from the brutal chaos brought by the super typhoon. Today, setting aside my problems for a while, I decided to bake brownies for my teens (even if I am feeling a little tired). I love it when they appreciate my cooking, or say anything positive about me.It makes me feel good. That's how it is to be a mom.

This is why I have this cake-mood as I work on my blog right now. I just can't resist posting these rows and rows of cakes I took pictures of in a big grocery store in Malaysia. I went to the grocery to look for Malaysian spices, especially those used for Nasi Lemak, my favorite Malaysian dish of coconut rice.

Anyway, got want I wanted, those smiles of satisfaction, before and after they ate the brownies, with yummy vanilla and chocolate ice cream for my eldest son and plain slices of super chocolatey, "no-nuts" brownies for the younger one.
