Sweet Success👩‍🍳: My First Homemade Cake

Today was a very hot day. The sun was overhead in the morning and the heat was so intense that the sweat from my face was not drying and the temperature was increasing further. I could not even think of leaving the house. As soon as the hot air hit my face, no one wanted to go out. The heat has reached such an extent that no one is visible on the streets. People are preferring to stay indoors so that they can sit under the fans and air, due to which their body temperature remains normal. I also did something like that. I tried to reduce the intensity of the heat by installing a fan and a cooler in the house, but at the moment the temperature in Pakistan is 47 degrees Celsius, which is very high and I want to drink cold water again and again to refresh my body. The sky is completely clear and there is no sign of a cloud anywhere. It does not look like it will rain at all, but the strong rays of the sun are touching the ground and I am showing you the view outside my street. There is no one outside and only sunshine. In such weather, even daily tasks seem somewhat difficult and a person starts feeling tired quickly.

Today I was lying in front of the cooler all day but I don't like lying and being idle at all so I thought why not make something again today as I told you guys in the last blog that I made something I made a cupcake and my courage has increased a lot that maybe I can do baking well so I thought why not take a new step today i.e. to make a cake. The intention was quite big but it seemed that I would do it. Today was my special day because I spent my whole day thinking about the same thing whether I should make it or not but finally I made it because all the ingredients were available at home because when I made the cake all the ingredients were available, after that I reached the kitchen and went there and tried to make the cake. I will not share all the details with you guys because it will be too much and it will be a very long process. Initially I was a little nervous that it might get spoiled or not turn out right but still I continued the preparation with confidence. First of all, I gathered all the ingredients and prepared the batter by mixing all the ingredients as per the instructions i.e. watching the video on YouTube and the mixture was quite good. It looked good but at the same time I was also worried about how the result would turn out.???

Then I put all the ingredients in the mold completely. When the cake went into the oven, the waiting time seemed to be the hardest part. I kept thinking that I should open the oven to see if it would burn or spoil. Finally, as soon as the baking was finished and I took out the cake, I felt happy because my hard work had paid off and it was quite good. If anything, this was my first experience in making a cake and I still had a lot to learn, but I felt proud of my work, thank God that it didn't burn. This experience taught me that it is necessary to take the first step to learn many things. Then after that, I cut my cake and it looked a little hard but it was perfectly fine to eat. The test was also perfect and that's how I prepared my cake today. I couldn't decorate it much because I didn't know how, so I left it as a simple cake.

Today was just a day spent making delicious cakes, but I also learned patience, confidence and something new that if we set our minds to do something, we can do it and next time maybe I can do it better. So I am ending my day with the thing that always have faith in ourselves that we can do it and then that work gets done. I am ending my blog here and I will be back with more good activities with you guys in the next blog. Until then, take care. Bye
