On Thursday, I bring my 3 kids to pray at a temple near Naka. It's about 1 hour drive from Alor Star. The temple there held the candle lighting prayer. It's believe will bring us brighter future and success in whatever we do. I bake this butter raisin cupcakes and bring it along, just in case my kids hungry they can have a bite on it. A quick bake, nothing fussy or complicated ~ 12 Butter Raisin Cupcakes are ready in less than an hour time.
