My first time trying DIY Chocolate Milkshake. Love the Jar i bought from taobao *winkz*

It was topped with whipped cream, marshmallows, banana chocolate pocky, ferrero rocher, oreo and hersheys chocolate sauce. (damn fattening!)

Dessert

Plate: credits to my dearest bud ris.

Was able to enjoy the mini dessert at 9.30pm as the kids were in bed by 9pm. *beaming* hahah.. I have no idea how i did it, but i managed to cook dinner too! (with them doing their writings etc)

Was on leave today and had a few errands to run. Started my day with Primary 1 registration at 8am.

Followed by Coffee Bean Breakfast with hubby while waiting to collect 2 birthday cakes for Jays.

(busy until forgot to take picture of both cakes).

After collecting cake, had to rush home in time to comb a "Belle's" hairstyle as requested by Jaymie. 

Then rush over to GHK to pick didi who had morning class followed by GHK. Total SWEAT!

I'm glad everything turned out well. =)

Thank you Kids for making July such a joyful month with many celebrations.

A mini play date at Kids STOP =)

Dessert

Because hubby was craving for Glutinous Rice Ball.. Tada! A simple method taught by my mum =p

Belgian Chocolate Ice Cream with Berries

There is always room for dessert! I pre-scooped the ice creams and loaded with berries.

Put it back into the freezer and the berries taste awesome!
