When my friend asked me to bring some snacks for exercising gerak jalan at the office, I tried to make Arem-arem Mie and Pennylane Brownies *the famous brownies from Mbak Riana - NCC*. First of all, I would post the Arem-arem Mie recipe taught by my mom. Here is the recipe. Hope you like it!

I always feel happy whenever I can translate the recipes into English. It is so difficult, but I try my best to do it. I think, it’s a kind of challenging task hehehe.
