Baked fruit pastry last night after putting Sonia to bed - with success - in her room.. on her own bed... phewww... touch wood yah but i do hope that tonight and many more nights to come shes able to sleep in her own bed without any probs..
You see.. all of a sudden a few weeks ago, she hasn't been going to sleep at night...She has no problem when its nap time, but when bedtime rolls around, she starts to scream, cry and even throw a fit.. I've tried bringing her into my bed, and wait until she falls asleep and then puts her back in her bed, but that woke her up, and she will starts to scream all over again!! We ended up giving in and let her sleep in between us which was not a good idea since she kicks and moves far too much in her sleep.. :o(
Anyway.. enough abt that... back to my fruit pastry... I've posted this recipe bef and as what i said in my previous post... we love love love love this simple yet full of flavor cake/pastry... not only its easy to prepare.. its a pretty cake and taste delicious too! I will post the recipe again..
