'Tis is the season of baking for me. I have been busy baking and cooking that I was running behind on wrapping presents and planning family activities with the kids during their Winter Break. Christmas came and went just like the wind, leaving behind emptied cardboard boxes from Amazon and torn wrapping papers all over the house. But luckily on this New Year Eve, I can take a break from cleaning or preparing for parties. I’m finally sitting here on my sister-in-law's couch, watching a Vietnamese musical show and enjoying the night before I have to get back to planning for the rest of the week activities with the family. Thus, I seize this opportunity to write this post as we close out the year of 2017. I want to share with you what we had for dessert over Christmas at my family annual holiday dinner. I have been trying to perfect this recipe for months, and I believe I finally did it this time around. If you are craving for the most creamy caramel flan that is not overly sweet, this is IT!

The last two weeks were super chaotic for me. I don't know how I managed to do all the tasks, but I barely survived them. I promise that I will not spread myself too thin again this time next year. I was constantly baking and decorating cakes, on top of keeping the kids on track with their activities before winter break, and participating in all of the functions at work. Whewww! Seven cakes and 8 mini cakes... Boy, I was baking nonstop for straight 3-4 hours on one of the days last week...And guess what? The hubby was not very fond of this. He reminded me that this (baking) should remain a hobby and should not a job. He's right, so I have to give myself (and the oven) a break for this week. No more baking until Christmas Eve!
