Still ecstatic about last Saturday's cooking playdate, this week is all about lemon. Yesterday i bought so many lemons and made Kyra's lemon mint drink for my parents, to accompany them enjoy the afternoon rain. And so i made another attempt in making cupcakes, this time i'm making lemon cupcakes. And you have to be proud of me, take a bow, or clap your hands for me, because i've finally succeeded in making cheese cream frosting :D Turns out it's all about the brand. I'm using President butter for the frosting, so it taste more delish.
