Soft & Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

My mommy is here to visit for a few months and she has been busy in the kitchen! It just so happens that she can bake (while I am absolutely hopeless) which works out perfectly because I am forever having strong pregnant cravings for buttery and sugary baked goods. I was so stoked when she baked these cookies... I swear they are the best Oatmeal Raisin cookies I've tasted and they are soft and chewy which is such a bonus. Needless to say, the whole batch was completely gone in a couple of days.

Sundried tomato and spinach bowtie salad

This one is probably one of my fave pasta salads and it's super easy to make. I hate heavy sauces on my salads and pastas (much to my disappointment, my hubby has the complete opposite view). So I love salads that are light but has a mixture of great flavours. Strangely enough, I actually tasted this salad in a western cafe in Singapore. I really enjoyed it and luckily had a pen and paper to jot down all the ingredients.

Once again, will definitely get the recipe up shortly!

I feel so horrible for not having any new postings for such a long time!! It's not like I haven't cooked, I've just been really busy with my business and have had no time for post anything! So I decided I'll post some pics first even if I don't have time to write down the recipe. At least having the pics up will give me the motivation to follow with the recipe later... i hope!!

This is a very famous Viet dish and one of my faves! I can never make it as tasty as my mother-in-law does but at least it still looks pretty! Recipe to follow...
