Elin Sweet Delights

Just because she has more gray hair than me, she thinks she is old enough to be my mum.

Just because she never dyes her hair like I do, she thinks I am young enough to be her daughter..

Just because I said I love to eat, she keeps on stuffing me with her baking, her cooking...
cos when I want it, she will want to do it! So.....

What do you call this kind of lady??

This lady "forces" me to take salad in the morning..
consisting of fruits, eggs and peanuts as toppings!
drowned by a hot mug of oats... healthy eh?

these days she is into making dough and
turning them into buns... cranberry buns..

the next day,
I have...er... 2, 4, 6......10 Tea Muffin Buns...
(did I get the name correct, lady?)

another day she will bring some ...
Bannock-Scottish Flatbread!

and now...the latest I was fed with...
is called... er... ah... ohh...
gosh, Elin, this one, u didn't post up yet
so I don't know the name of this yummy steamed cake..
OK, let me call it ...
Cranberry, Wolfberry, Pumpkin Seeds Steamed Cake!
phew... such a long name....

So what should I call this lady who made me eat all these goodies?
Elin Sweet Delights!
ELIN is Indeed Sweet And Delight!
