Gosh, look at the date. It's 11 MAY right now! This was supposed to be posted like what, 2 weeks ago?
Okays, works been extreeeeeeeeemely busy, I got sick and was too tired to blog. Numbers had been increasing in a SCARY manner at work. With our highest record of 730 when our norm was say 300-400 per day. Oh, number of patients.. forgot to mention. I had one granny who commented, "You guys work like you're fighting a war!". Haa. Yes, like you don't even have space to walk. And with the new batch of doctors (doctors rotate at every 3 or 6 months), it just makes everything worse. This batch I would say is irritatingly stubborn. I have NEVER in my entire 4 years as a staff nurse quarrelled with a doctor. (Literally shouting at each other kind of quarrel.) But I just did to one few days back. All I have to say is, as a nurse, it is my duty to serve and MY RESPONSIBILITY to make sure my patients get the correct stuff, even if its just PEDIALYTE(oral rehydration solution). I don't care what you practice in other hospitals or what you do in the army. This is a pediatric setting, NOT THE ARMY, and you f-ing stop comparing the patients here with those NS BOYS! I didn't know you can produce 30mls of saliva in 15mins. *Rolls eyes*
Okays, back to the cuppycakes. This was baked when the previous batch of doctors were still here. Aww, I miss them. Er.. actually I just miss working with him. Haa! Shit me.
Vanilla triple threat. Baked with real vanilla beans, vanilla sugar (I made) and pure vanilla extract. All the vanilla goodness in one small little cake. Oh, vanilla bean cream cheese frosting as well. This one is REEEAAAAL GOOD. Not trying to be thick skinned, but seriously, I'm very happy with the result. With its just nice sweetness, the vanilla flavour lingers in your mouth after every bite. I was craving for it even when at work. Brought some to work and it was gone even before the shift ended! Of course, I had comments which I really liked hearing. Haa! Joy said she still preferred the chocolate ones though. :)
Oh, I baked some white chocolate and cranberries cupcakes as well, out of boredom. No frostings so not counted. Hee.
The Cranberries were rather heavy so they eventually sank to the bottom. Will try dropping it after filling the cases if I ever bake this again. *Grins*
Next up, straaaaaawwbeeeeerries!!!!!!!
