Back in Canada for approximately a week and a half, and of course I get hit but a cold 4th day in. And having more trouble with the jetlag then usual....though this is probably just me getting old.
One of the things I always do is try to bake something (I have access to an oven in Taiwan, but I don't quite trust it to work properly).
Baking project#1 this year:

It turned out rather well, especially this is the first time I tried a proper cake. A bit crumbly at the edges but not too dry overall and very chococlatey~
