Hello everyone.
I hope you have all had a good week. It has been an unexpected week here and not a very welcome one, either. Before I start, let me reassure you that I am okay!
For some time, I have had a few gastric issues, which have been under control, but on Tuesday, life took a different turn. I started getting chest pains around teatime, and hubby whisked me off to the hospital to get checked out. After blood tests, X-rays, blood checks and a 9-hour wait, I was given the all-clear. It was a scary evening but ended positively, knowing my heart was still ticking as usual.
The following morning, another of my teeth fell apart, requiring yet another dental visit. I jokingly said, " Shall I bring my bed next time? "
While I am very grateful for all the care I received, I now want to avoid dentists, doctors, and other medical professionals for as long as possible.
With such an eventful week, I'm afraid there's not much more for me to say, but D has been baking again.

Hi everyone - D, here.
While Mum has had an eventful week, I decided to cheer her up with a cheesecake. When I mentioned the idea to Dad, his eyes lit up as well—I was definitely making the cheesecake then.
I used a recipe from Jane's Patisserie. However, I modified it slightly because I couldn't find shortbread biscuits at the supermarket for the base. I used Malted Milk biscuits and added melted white chocolate, so in the end, I made a White Chocolate and Lemon Cheesecake.
I was pleased with the result, and so were Mum and Dad. I only finished the cheesecake yesterday morning, and it's already half gone.
Mum and I hope you all have a far less eventful week than the one in this small corner.
