Carrot Juice and Cake
Carrot Cake with sweet cream cheese, a bite! You will know why it never goes out of your mouth. Juicing my carrot using my newly bought Slow Juicer, the carrot juice is delicious and nutritious.
One of the benefits of drinking carrot juice is the reduced risk of heart disease. Using the convention juicer, a lot of fibre will be stripped away in the juicing process, whereas, this slow juicer won't.
After drinking the delicious carrot juice, the grated carrot could be used to make carrot cake. Here it is the recipe by Ray;

1. Plain Flour 140g

Frothy Coffee
Sunday morning, make yourself a cup of frothy coffee served with a sweet "Melting Moment". It's really refreshing!
The process is really simple. A battery-operated Frother stick will be enough to make a coffee foam. Learned from my husband's colleague, this simple recipe is as follows:-
1. 3 teaspoon of instant coffee powder
2. 3 teaspoon of caster sugar
3. 30 cc of hot water (approximate)
Froth the mixture until it's frothy and smooth, making an ideal foam. Add it onto three cups of hot milk and stir.
