CUSTARD CAKE 🎂













 The year 2020

A black year of pain, deaths and calamities,

The little virus has caused havoc and uncertainties.

Life came to a screeching halt

when deaths, crisis and health hazards the villain caused

Scientists are working to tame the goon

But it is in no mood to leave too soon

With the virus forcing us to stay indoors

But let's not paint the year all black 

Let us be grateful for the good things it offered to bring us to the track

Necessity has brought  about  changes and new hopes

Productivity and creativity in the time of despair  and catastrophe


 Compassion and charity show silver lining do exist

Distance yet closer than ever

Love and care for each other

Technology has brought everything to our homes

Online education and work from home are the new norms 

Films, dance and music album launches

Weddings, convocations and community lunches 

Reinventing self with hobbies and books

Inventions to challenge the corona threats 

When all is so  bleak and dark

With resilience we are facing the shark 


The best teacher award of the year goes to year 2020

For teaching us the attitude of Positivity in negetivity

Microwave mayonnaise mug cake

MICROWAVE MAYONNAISE MUG CAKE When I saw the recipes of mayonnaise cake/ cupcakes/ mug cakes on mobile , I was shell shocked . Never had heard of mayo in Cakes . Then I browsed through more recipes n also read the comments section . I was surprised that it's been done since the world war when commodities like eggs and milk were rationed . The mayo substituted for these . I wanted to bake this cake . But the hitch was mayo . First issue was would eggless mayo work for the recipe . The second problem was the taste . I wonderered if it would taste of mayo ..To make it or not to make it . Finally I decided to make a mug cake as a trial cake . if things didn't work out , there would be a small amount of wastage that would be pardonable . The cake  didn't have the  taste of mayo In it . Actually it tasted more like a chocolate cake Flour _1/4 cup Sugar _ 2 tbsp Mayonnaise 1 tbsp ( I used 1 heaped tsp  eggless mayo ) Cocoa powder    1 _ 2 tbsp Coffee powder....
