Happy Holidays!

Been quite a busy bee lately. Once Halloween passed, Thanksgiving came and flew by. Unfortunately I was unable to prepare a dessert because I went on a road trip with Allen. (Also because I wanted to cook rather than bake this time around) It has been getting more and more busy at work due to the holidays. I feel extremely exhausted after my shift is over but at the same time, quite accomplished to have fed so many diners in one night! Only 2 more nights of work and Christmas will be here!

In celebration of the holidays, I made some peppermint bark. It was my first time so I was not exactly sure of the procedure. I tempered the chocolate as opposed to adding vegetable oil. Lesson learned: don't let the dark chocolate set completely before pouring the white chocolate on top. When I broke them into pieces afterwards, many of the white chocolate pieces separated from the dark chocolate. Luckily, most of them still stayed intact. Phew. Thank goodness I'm not giving these out as gifts. What embarrassment that would be! They're very tasty nevertheless. Just need a cup of Mexican hot chocolate next to it now. Mmmm. Happy Holidays everyone!
