For you, my son.

This songs says everything that I want to say to you.

You will always be my baby, no matter how old you will be.

Sometimes I wonder

How I'd ever make it through,

Through this world without having you

I just wouldn't have a clue

'Cause sometimes it seems

Like this world's closing in on me,

And there's no way of breaking free

And then I see you reach for me

Sometimes I wanna give up

I wanna give in,

I wanna quit the fight

And then I see you, baby

And everything's alright,

everything's alright

When I see you smile

I can face the world, oh oh,

you know I can do anything

When I see you smile

I see a ray of light, oh oh,

I see it shining right through the rain

When I see you smile

Oh yeah, baby when I see you smile at me

Baby there's nothing in this world

that could ever do

What a touch of your hand can do

It's like nothing that I ever knew

And when the rain is falling

I don't feel it,

'cause you're here with me now

And one look at you baby

Is all I'll ever need,

you're all I'll ever need

Sometimes I wanna give up

I wanna give in,

I wanna quit the fight

And then I see you baby

And everything's alright,

everything's alright

My Carrot Cake

I am obses with this super flexible fruit/veggie. It is flexible because it can be made into different types of food: juice, main dish (buat sayur tumis, makan ngan nasi) and dessert.

I think no other fruits can beat carrots.

I love carrot cake. To buy them from bakery...it is quite expensive, plus I don't trust the taste - too much additional stuffs (raisins etc). So better bake my own.

So here is the recipe should you want to try.

1 cup corn oil (I just use Naturel oil)

1 cup caster sugar or 1/2 caster and 1/2 dark brown sugar

2 cups of self-raising flour - sifted

3 eggs

3-4 carrots - finely shredded and squeezed (don't want the juice)

zest and juice of an orange

1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla essence

optional: add in dried fruits or chopped walnuts

Method:

1. Beat oil, sugar, eggs, essence, cinnamon, zest and juice until light and fluffy.
2. Add in other ingredients and mix well.
3. Bake in oven preheated oven for 45 mins - 1 hour. Check your cake with a cake tester. The cake is cooked if the tester comes out clean.

The cake tastes better after a few days, not freshly baked for the ingredients will need more time to blend in together after baked. Store the cake in an air-tight container, in the fridge. Once you are ready to eat the cake, make this yummy cream cheese frosting.

1/2 cup unsalted butter

250gm cream cheese

1 1/2 to 2 cups icing sugar - sifted

Beat the butter and cheese until smooth and creamy. Add in sugar gradually and beat until you get a smooth and glossy frosting.

I, myself have baked this cake 3 times in a month; that is how good it is! And it is nutritious, better than butter cake! Good for Raihan too!
