Coco's Birthday Preparation

My beloved daughter, Coco's birthday is coming soon, on 10th July!! She is turning 2 yrs old!
I have been thinking what cake to make her. I have now decided to make her apple cake since she loves apple. I found quite a good recipe online, from seefido. Why I say it good? It contained better ingredients that do not hurt doggie, and less oily.
I can't wait to make the cake...
Dog Apple Cake Recipe
Ingredients2 cups of all purpose flour
½ cup of oats
2 teaspoon of baking powder
2 and ½ teaspoons of cinnamon powder
6 tablespoons of canola oil
½ cup of molasses
1 and ½ cups of applesauce, unsweetened
1 egg
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 apple, core and chopped
Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Oil and flour a 13 X 9 inch baking pan.
  3. In a bowl mix the flour, baking powder, oats, and cinnamon together, then set it on the side. In a separate big bowl mix the oil, molasses, applesauce, egg and vanilla together. Then put both mixtures together until you obtain a smooth batter. Finally fold in the chopped apple.
  4. Evenly spread the batter out over the pan. Put it in the oven and bake it for 25 to 30 minutes or until when poking a wooden pick in it, it comes out clean. Then cut the cake into the amount of pieces you want.
  5. Allow it to cool completely before serving it out.
Store the leftovers in an airtight container for no more than 4 days, or wrap in freezer wrap and keep them in the freezer for up to 2 months.
Serves 20 to 24 cake servings.

New Path of My Life

A new path I have chosen for my life.
I have quit my job, and fully concentrate on inner growth activities. Yeah, I will lose all of my income for the time being, and spend my previous saving.

I have just signed up Yoga Teacher Training Course yesterday. It's a page where I re-write my life path. I foresee that I will have flexible working hour, yet almost the same income that I had if I teach Yoga. Most importantly, is that what I am doing now can remain good health, and perhaps body shape (as bonus) haha

What are the other benefits? I will have more time for family and for my kids in future ...(U must be asking, hey Va:L are u getting married soon?? hm...I can't answer.....but of course at this age, I will plan to have kids in few yrs time later...where I think I have to get ready for the change before it comes)

Of course my parents won't be happy with the daughter who is reluctant to work. But I do hope they support what I am doing now.

Lastly... I have to make sure I make it!!! GANBATE!!!
