THE DIARY GAME: 7TH AUGUST, 2020: An Eventful Friday

in hive-170181 •  4 years ago 

Dear diary, it was 6:00am when my mum woke me up for morning devotion but I just wished that the time would reverse backwards a bit so I can get more sleep.

I had to get up for devotion, I know I woke up tired and sleepy but it was my fault for going to bed late. Even though I felt tired, I was happy I had a little time to rest more after devotion before the day's activity.

I had scheduled to bake cake today with my cousin assisting me, the cake in question is not for sell but for home consumption, this is my home made cakeIMG_20200807_141115_120.jpg

When we where planning on how to start up the baking process, I got a call from my mum, requesting I and my cousin to go clean up the bird cage. Without further delay, we setout to work.

We were to make sure that there wasn't any spider webs nor insects, wood or stones inside the cage.

The clean up didn't take much of our time, within 10minutes we were done. Came upstairs to start the baking officially.

The Ingredients Needed For The Cake

That's my cake ingredients,

  • Three cups of flour
  • We have one cup of milk
  • Five eggs
  • Vanilla flavor
  • One and half cup of sugar
  • Butter
  • Salt
  • Baking powder

My baking powder have been sieved into the flour that's why its not visible. I mixed the remaining dry ingredients which is the flour and salt.

I don't have a Cake mixer yet because it's really costly but I make use of whisk before I can get one.

I used one and half cup of sugar because my mum doesn't take too much sugar.

I mixed the sugar and butter together a little before adding my egg one after the other but not over mixing it. I poured in two teaspoons of vanilla into the mix and started adding the flour.

The flour was added in three batches, the first batch was added and mixed while the second and third batch was added along side with the liquid milk.

Love Pan Ready For Heat

The cake was turned into two pans. We wanted it to go for two pans that's why we used a smaller pan for the second cake as its seen below.

After Baking it came out looking so gorgeous and yummy, I know am still learning how to bake but this cake is really tasty.

After baking, I went to visit my cousin with some cake for her, her twin brother and her mum. They enjoyed the cake and appreciated me for it.

We talked for a while before I came back home, getting into our compound I saw my mum by the bird house feeding the birds, I went down to assist her.

After feeding the birds, we came upstairs, my cousin had already prepared dinner, we ate, watched cartoon on Disney Junior till it was some minutes past 10pm.

We said our night prayers and went to bed but I stayed awake a little before sleeping to surf through the net.

I truly had a nice and eventful day.
