we woke up at 5am to move all the goody bags and what nots to the club house. that weili sure can perspire alot. she looked like she just came out of a pool when she was arranging the goody bags. i didn't stay at nsrcc long after the last tee-off at 9am. i had wanted to go to conrad earlier to practise on the piano before the reception at 6pm. i returned to the office to make some changes to the gala masterlist before ben brought me and christine to the hotel to join the 'older generation'. heh. whatever could go wrong went wrong. the delivery truck was late because of an earlier function, the truck could not find the unloading bay, and rai got stuck in the cargo lift! hahahaha! so we had to drag/carry the over 70 cartons to the passenger lifts because the smaller trolley was in the cargo lift as well. we were already delayed by an hour. we packed over 300 goody bags for the gala dinner. i was bathing at the fitness centre when ben called and ordered me to be at the lobby in 10. eh..but i still had soap suds on me. and i had not practised on the piano. we returned to the office and made more changes to the masterlist. by the time we got back to the hotel it was already 5pm.
the hotel's pianist was playing at the lobby and his playing was, of course, impressive. so, i didn't play at the cocktail reception, a month of intensive practice gone to naught. i couldn't muster up enough courage to play before such a large crowd either. so i stood faithfully by my booth to sell the aircraft models.

the secret to my very round pancakes is that i use a smaller pan. you know those small cast iron pans you get at stores where they sell pots and kettles....its diameter is bigger than small pans made for frying perfectly round eggs.....can get for you if you want...or if you can't find any in singapore...
we got a small pan from daiso. i think your mom got the same one too. the black and heavy one. BUT my momma says it's a NON-non-stick pan..so my pancake will stick to the pan. how?
yeah....was going to tell you..mom got it from daiso too..
i spread butter on the hot pan first...very very very little butter...you don't want oily pancakes...erm..like the size of your fingernail..quickly spread it all over as it melts.
you can put more if you want.
that's only for one side....when you flip it over..no need butter anymore, ok. it won't stick for the other side.
hahahaha! thanks for sharing your pancake making secrets. i can't make small round ones so i resorted to filling up the WHOLE frying pan with the mixture and ended up one with damn BIG round one. heh lemme try with the small pan tomorrow.
yay! good luck!
but my pancake has that 'floury' taste. I don't know if it's the pancake batter i use or i did something wrong. Take photo of the pancakes!
