making mooncakes

We went back to Seremban over the Hari Raya weekend. Drove back right after spending the entire day in church on Saturday. It was smooth all the way there.

Ah Mah was busy making mooncakes. Joe was quite interested to learn the how-tos.


He observed step by step.... here Ah Mah pats the mooncake balls with flour.

She brushes the mooncake mould with flour...

Then she puts the mooncake ball into the mould...

...and pats it in gently.

Knock knock the mould against the table to gently dislodge it...

Ta-daa....

The kids happily clapped and cheered Ah Mah...

In the evening we went out for dinner. Joy-Anne insisted on feeding herself.

Joe also fed himself and we could enjoy the food.

When we got home, Ah Mah continued making mooncakes.... brushing them with egg yolk.

The finish product....fresh from the oven! Smelled really good!

I found some pumpkin growing in Ah Mah's garden...

Made sure I got a picture of the kids with the pumpkin before we left.

Coz it'll probably be another couple of months at least before we make another trip back.
