baking time

bought a bread maker recently so going to have my first trial of bread...wholemeal bread...simple and easy to prepare.... and it is SUCCESSFUL!! 

step 1: put all ingredient in baking pan and set wholewheat setting to start.....

 step 2: baking time after dough is ready....

step 3: use stick to check if it is complete cook...remove frm baking pan after cool down abit...as too hot to remove it...

 step 4: cut it into slices when it is totally cool, as it will stick to the knife if it is hot.....

 step 5: ready to serve....

these are the ingredients i used:

2 1/2 cups wholemeal flour

1/2 cup bread flour

1 1/2 tsp dried yeast

1 1/2 cup fresh mik (warm)

1 tsp salt

pinch of bread softerner

Doraemon Expo

went to the Doraemon Expo at Vivahome today which has been plan to go previously....found that it is not spacious enough...too many visitors with a small exhibition hall....all the Doraemon statue are arrange very closely to each other.... you can't manage to take picture with all the characters...and especially during crowded moments...entrance fees of RM25/adult and RM15/kid is not worth for the expo.....
