Almond Flakes

After a tiring gathering yesterday night i decided not to do anything today.
Kids busy changing their bedspreads while hubby doing his weeding.
While blogging i knew that Ann is participating in the Project Food Blog Challenge.
I will definitely vote for her as i really learn many things from her lovely blog.
As kids are being so good, i finally wake myself up to make something for them.
I purposely choose this almond flakes recipe from Anncoo Journal.
This is the 2nd time i used her recipe to make this.
Since the 1st time i din't post it in my blog, i will take this opportunity to post it today just to support her with action before voting.
Kids love it so much.
This proof again that Ann's recipes are so reliable and wonderful!
Thanks Ann for her kind sharing.

while i am baking, Michelle draw this pic for me to place my flakies.
