What's for dinner?

Missing the people at home...

2012-01-25T17:10:00.000-08:00

I miss my new nephew. Makcu takleh pegang awakla haritu... My cough n cold was too bad, nanti the kuman2 lompat kat awak. Huhuhu.. Hope by the time we go back again dah sihat.
And most of all, I miss my ayah... It feels sooooooooo menyakitkan seeing him not at his usual self. You see, ayah had a stroke. A mild one but a stroke still. So now he is recuperating at home. Keluar bilik, masuk bilik. But ayah is a very strong person, he wants to do everything by himself. Bangun ke, jalan ke, semua nak sendiri :) Ramai kawan2 ayah datang visit, borak2 dgn ayah, alhamdulillah... Get well soon ayah! Aryan still nak dukung2 lagi, panjat2 lagi... And most of all, I need you :)

My birthday

2012-01-05T21:19:00.000-08:00

Dec 31 2011

Thats the gift. Mine is silver. Suka! Thank you...
Mak n ayah n Hadirah datang naik komuter on Wednesday. Thursday Bangah dtg lunch pastu hntar ayah g komuter dia nak balik. Friday g dinner kat rumah Angah lak, n midnight tgk Ombak Rindu diorg subscribe kat Astro 1st. Sabtu dlm pkl 3 tu keluar terus g One Utama yg seperjalanan kaki je dari rumah dia tuh. Lunch kat Seoul Garden. Kids loved it. Me? Mmm... Agak panas so Aryan dah cranky so agak cranky juga ibu jadinya. Hehe... Foodwise, ok laaa... Korean BBQ, sgt karnivor! Haha... Tapi potato salad nya kureng sketla, keras sgt potato nya. The ice creams mmg heaven la budak2 ni.
All in all, Alhamdulillah, I am blessed with a good life, hoping to become a better person to me and everyone, and updating my 2012 to do list :D

Chicken Soup

2011-12-01T21:53:00.001-08:00

At the moment the 2 kids are having their lunch, and lil Aryan terkinja kinja nak makan jugak! Haha.. Bagila dia rasa kuahnya tu... Baru la senyap...
Masalah la lately, susah nak letak Aryan. Ke memang all three are like that? Hehe... Sempat masak je, siap masak dia nangis, damn good la the sensor! Hahaha... Dah slightly underweight dah nih! Positive ke tak kurus tu xtau nak kata laa, hehehe... Limitnya ialah bila saya kena pakai saiz S mcm dulu ye. That is waaaayyyyyyyy too much already!
Gambar nanti la, Encik Aryan sedang seronok menarik jari2 dan rambut saya :p

Whoa!

2011-11-24T05:47:00.001-08:00

Last post was August 25th. THAT long! Berhibernasi ke hape? :p
Syahmi has finished his pre-school year, with flying colors (except BM, ururururu) And he already did his Ujian Diagnostik Tahun 1, hopefully he'll get a good class.
Syafiyah as always is the princess. She's happy Syahmi is on holidays, she has someone to play (& bicker!) with.
Aryan? He is already taking his 1st few crawl. 1 forward, 5 reverse! Hahaha...

Aaaaaniway, you in the grey/green shirt, sila balik cepatla ye :)

Almost the end...

2011-08-25T10:35:00.000-07:00

Just a few more days to the end of Ramadhan. Alhamdulillah, semua berjalan lancar. Syahmi puasa, though it is his first time. So far he missed 5 days. The first 3, and a Saturday at Atok's because goyah dengar Atok nak bawak the girls pegi makan, and another Saturday at Opah's coz the other 3 kids mkn n minum dpn dia dari pagi siap suap suruh try lagi. Budak-budak...
And Alhamdulillah too, Aryan has been growing well, ada hari meragam nak ngempeng je, but most of the time, an easy baby he is. Orang kata dia gebus, gebukah anakku itu? Haha... Kakak kat Bazaar Ramadhan kata dia nampak macam girl (ni sama kes dgn Syahmi la nih). See the picture, judge it yourself :) That's the toothless grin I always talk about. Susah nak dapat gambar tu. Ni pun sebab Ayah dia borak2 dgn dia, Ibu curi2 ambik from tepi.

For this Raya, I only take a few orders. Ada la xsampai 10 biji pun. Takut nak konfiden sangat, Aryan kecik lagi, takut time nak bz tu dia nak ngempeng melekap je. Huhu... This year kami raya kat Seremban, then ke Taiping on the 3rd day, & Koyan on the 4th, Rawang on the 6th. Gila ak? Haha... Pinggang I kirim salam ye. Haha.. Kena pakai koyok siap2 la gamaknya. Travelling, pegang baby, not a very good scenario benarnya. Plus memang ada penyakit kat pinggang tu. Takpela, bukan selalu pun buat kerja travel jauh2 ni kan? Kena ingat, bukan kita je yang ada saudara mara, the other side pun ada jugak... Penat tu tolakla tepi kejap, keluar shopping berejam ko buleh, jumpa sedara je ko penat ye? Haha... Just fikir that insyaAllah, satu masa nanti anak2 kita pun akan balik jauh2 nak jumpa kita jugak. InsyaAllah, amin... Ibu tua nanti nak balik rumah Ibu ye, korang balikla Seremban jumpa Ibu, kekeke

Whew!

2011-07-28T18:27:00.000-07:00

Wow! My last published post is on June 18th, that is more than a month ago! Maaakkk aih! So... Whats up? Dwfinitely the main supermain event is the lated edition/addition to our not-so-little-anymore family. Hehe... And he is now toothlessly grinning sampai tak nmpak mata on my lap. Xtaula apa yg suka sangat tu :D It is raining, rather cold so I'd say bermanja2 is the most comfortable la kot...
Anyway... His name is Sayf Faqeef Aryan Bin Shahrizan. Which means; The sword, The pious & understanding (Ye, anak lelaki saya mmg memahami belaka, kekeke), With full force. And yes, Aryan tu banyak makna. The most popular one is The Nazi (Hitler's) idea of a perfect race (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan) But lets not dwell into that, ok? :) Syahmi chose that name, he likes it so much, and we call the baby Aryan, much to Syahmi's delight. Syafiyah? She adores Aryan sooo much! Pantang berbunyi sikit baby tu, she"ll come running to check. And the Kakak Princess is very helpful! Mcm assistant lak dia, cakap je nak apa :)

Opor Ayam

Salad & Ikan Goreng

The ikan goreng is actually for the kids. This is the 1st time I made Opor Ayam. It's a Pahang cuisine, but even the one with the Pahang IC doesn't know what it is. Haiyaaaa.... So anyway, it complements the rice dish. Not as hot as curry, Syafiyah loved it. And the next morning we had roti bom with this for breakfast. Kuahnya pekat, sedapla buat cicah ni, hehe...

Teacher's Day

2011-06-08T22:08:00.000-07:00

Syahmi brought this to school for his teachers :) Ok la tu... Wan suggested that I bake something for him to bring, instead of buying something with MY money. Hehe... And better, let him help bake the cake. And so we did. Orange Mocha Brownies for the teachers, yeay! Thank you Teacher Pah, Teacher Anis, Teacher Ina, Teacher Nurul & Teacher Ain. Thank you for taking care of Syahmi (yg selalu demam smpai kena tido kat skolah with SpongeBob teacher tuh) and thank you for making his 1st school year a great one for him! Harusla best kalau tak xde la keluar pagar sekolah je terus report 'Harini kan, teacher teach Ami blablabla'. hehe...

His Birthday

2011-05-03T22:47:00.000-07:00

It was Mr Hubby's birthday on the 25th. Planned to go celebrate the weekend before but he had to go for his office retreat so we settled for a small celebration anak beranak je kat rumah... Yg serabut sbb buat pesta tido nye, yg sebok tgk tv sbb baru blk skolah, yg tuan punya birthday pun sama buat pesta tido. Hadeh...

Bila xada idea nak masak :)

2011-04-23T03:30:00.000-07:00

It's easy, it's simple, everybody in the house loves it, so kalau dah xtau nak msk apa sgt tu resort tu ini sahaja laaa. Hehe... Somehow Syahmi prefers the one I make at home than those at the kedai :)

This is life :D

2011-04-20T19:30:00.000-07:00

I love seafood. Serious! But I can't really eat them much due to the allergies, yadda yadda... Nak makan crab lak, I'm the only one eating it at home (Note to self; teach the kids to eat crabs. Rugi!). Encik Hubby eats crabs only if someone crack them for him. Haih... So anyway... Ayah & Brother-in-law suggested that we go have dinner at this parking lot (while we were in Kuching, that is). And the first night we were there, terus pegi! Hehe...

April

2011-04-11T04:51:00.000-07:00

April is already in its teen days. And I have been sick for the most part of it. Lama pulak sekali ni, hmm... Ujian, redha je...
So anyway, end of March, we went for a holiday in Kuching! Alhamdulillah... Everything went well, almost actually :) Got delayed on the To flight, and Syafiyah caught a fever on our last day. Hmm... But we had a good time. Not much sightseeing but a good time nontheless. Abah was kind of pelik why we didn't go to any museums or go this or that. Senyum je la... :)

Anyway, I'm at week 27 now. And I do get annoyed very very VERY easily nowadays. Loud voices annoys me. Stupid questions annoys me. Macam-macamla kesimpulannya. Hmm...

Minta tolong boleh?

2011-03-23T01:28:00.000-07:00

Nak minta tolong sket... Please visit my aunt's blog @ http://mayangreka.blogspot.com/ Ada homemade chocolates, kuih talam, cakes... And kalau boleh, klik la yg 'Share it" or follow the blog ke. TQ! :D

Dah sampai

2011-03-10T23:25:00.000-08:00

Lately my appetite has been haywire. To the extent that I ate rice with Pringles for lunch. Seriously! So... I ordered Sambal Kentang/Sambal Tempe from http://wanitamelayu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34858 Adala perasaan sket kpd pemakanan tuh. Haha... Dulu dah biasa beli from her, sedap! Teruk betul selera sekarang. But at least I am not as banyak songeh as hubby la. Ikan xnak makan, udang xnak mkn, sape yg pregnant pun xtau la. Haha...
School holidays has started. Sunday ni balik Seremban, ada urusan sket. Then blk sini... Then Jumaat mlm kot kena g Serdang pulak. In laws ada kat sini, Monday nih sampai. Nak tgk rmh baru cousin nya d Putrajaya, plus cuti skolah. Am planning (and hoping) that En Hubby will remember his own plan to go to watch the ballon festival in Putrajaya. And perhaps go to i-City for the Dora thingy. But am not putting much hope, ramai kan, kena ikut plan orang la.. Kita numpang rmh org je ni, hehe

P.A.N.A.S

2011-02-07T23:02:00.000-08:00

Berita panas! Berita panas! > Baca mcm iklan 'Waktu rehat' on Disney Channel ya. Haha.. Nope, no hot news/gossips. Other than the weather, which is so hot. Alhamdulillah, cepat baju kering walaupun sidai dlm rumah je. But the not so good thing is my health, which presumably relates to the weather, is going haywire! Huhuhu...
Anyway, Luscious has a new (not so la, cuma lately ni ramai lak order) addition to its line. Blueberry CheeseCake. No picture coz I am sooooOOOooo lazy to charge the batteries. Am planning to add Blueberry Cheese Tart to it to! So doakanla the battery miraculously got charged and I can take pictures of it. Hehe...
Haritu g Rawang, nak beli cheese. Then there was a TM Pajero behind me, which was driving awfully close. Xkesahla, nak hog the road ke apa, but it was raining so agak bengang gakla. Then stopla kat traffic light. It was red, kenala stop kan? Then the lights turned green again, and the moment it did, the Pajero start honking. WTH! Sabar boleh? I have a 3 year old in the car, I don't plan on melulu langgar traffic light tu. Pastu kat corner tu he tried to overtake me, n kat sebelah dia pun ada kereta. Xtaula apa yg dia fikir. I just turned and look at him. Pastu xtaula mmg dia gila ke apa, he followed my car, rapat2, buat2 aksi nak langgar. Maka, marilah kita masuk ke balai polis ye. Tu je yg terfikir time tu. Xnak pulak dia ikut masuk, haha... Tapi masa dia lalu smpat lagi hon smbil jegil mata. Apa masalah xtau laaa. So skarang ni bila nampak TM nye lori/pajero/van je, mula la hati nak menyumpah. Free je semua kena :p

Of late

2011-01-16T18:18:00.000-08:00

Been under the weather lately. A week of cough, flu, super sleepy medications, sakit tekak. Hmm...
Nway, despite my batuk xhengat nye tu, we went for lunch with friends at Ice Room, Kota Damansara. Nama je dok dedekat, but sgt susah nak jumpa. Ngan rakan sepergosipan pun ssh nak jumpa! Kena buat appointment dulu, haha...
Syahmi has been in school for 2weeks now. So far so good, just that he feels a little pressured, since most of the kids have already been in school the year before. At least his maths and english xde problem (menurut kata Teacher Pah laaa).
My birthday was spent as the usuals; lunch, then jalan2 carik gift. Lunch was at Shogun, then cari gift. Then kena g rumah akak pulak, MIL ada situ. Dah berapa tahun ye tak spend birthday dgn mak sendiri? Hmm... Rasanya sejak kawen mmg xpernah dah kot. The birthdays are always spent with his family. Sebab selalunya time tu mak akan decide untuk turun KL, or buat kenduri time tu, so... Dah ada 2 family, mcm tu la... Tapi mmg ckp awal2, I don't want any cakes. Kalau nak suruh saya potong kek, sila bawak saya balik Seremban. Hehe...
Syafiyah's birthday pulak, on the 12th. Masa tu demam tgh sgt teruk, tapi nak happykan anak2 kan... Picked up Syahmi from school, get them ready, then tido kejap. Abang balik, siap2, went out to MidValley. The kids were sleeping when we arrived so decided to look for my other gift. The waiting was kinda long, processing kejap je. By the time we were done, kids dah bangun pun. So pegi la ToysRUs, cari gift Syafiyah. Tapi xjumpa yg berkenan. Last2 xbeli apa gak. Pergi dinner je... By the time balik dah rasa nak pengsan. Huhu...
Been doing a lot of thinking lately. Hmm... A LOT! Penatla, kan best kalau boleh sesuka hati je wish for things to vanish, or come back, or... But Allah has His own way to set our ves straight, kan? Belajarla untuk redha...

What's up with that?

2011-01-05T01:26:00.000-08:00

Now really, what's up with that? Huh!

December 31, 2010 & January 1, 2011

2010-12-30T17:23:00.000-08:00

Dec 31, Happy Birthday to myself. Terima kasih Ayah & Mak, for taking care of me since I was in the tummy up till now :) N thank you to Sayang, Syahmi, Syafiyah for being my world...

Jan 1, a brand new year. What a year it has been, 2010. Ups & downs, super huge things, starting something new, ending something old... What a year it has been :) So heres to a fresh new start! あけましておめでとうございます!

Ayam Goreng Cili Api

2010-12-20T18:35:00.000-08:00

When I cook this I'll have to make another dish for the kids, krg nangis mereka xde lauk nanti. So double the work. As long as they eat then it's ok la kot...

Ayam Goreng Cili Api

Bahan2

Ayam (potong kekecik n salut garam kunyit sket)

Bawang Besar

Bawang Putih (ketuk, hentak, sukati la :p)

Halia (hiris)

Lada api

Cara2

Goreng sebentar ayam td, smpai msk laaa seeloknya, unless kalau nak berkuah. Kalau nak berkuah separa msk je pun ok dah.

Alihkan ayam, kurangkan minyak, tumis segala bawang n halia td.

Masukkan lada api, make sure lada api tuh masak ye, krg lada tak masak haruslah sakit perut.

Rasakan garamnya.

Masukkan ayam grg td. Kalau nak berkuah, tambah air sket. Kalau tak tu kacau kacau kacau, bagi rata ayam dengan bebawang.

Tutup api, hidangkan...

Out of the area

2010-12-16T19:53:00.000-08:00

Where: The Legend Hotel, KL
Why: En Hubby is finishing his Annual Leave, I just need to get out of the house, We need time for ourselves :)
When: Sometimes during the KLIMS 10

Met Aja, went for the Motorshow, had fun, worried sick for a while coz somehow the phone managed to worm its way out of my pocket and sat on the chair until morning at The Mall's Foodcourt (had to go there after Subuh n use the lif pekerja haruslah indon2 tu heran apa masalah akak ngan abg ni turun sgt awal kat foodcourt tuh :p). We had fun, yeay! Thanks for the time Encik Shahrizan :)
* More pictures at my FB

Why that song? Blog aku, sukati aku la! Haha... Xde la, heard it on tv, a little melancholic, moodswings, yadda yadda... It's a good song anyway, to me at least. And not everything is meant to be said. And not everything said, chosen, and done is the right thing. But Allah works in His own mysterious way, and of course, He knows best. So, be thankful for what we have, and don't fret over something you don't, and don't be sad if your wishes don't come true, and don't wish for something you can't. Tu namanya ayat menyedapkan hati :)

Puff Sardin Segera

2010-12-15T19:34:00.000-08:00

Huh, xcantiknya lipatan puff itu! Fedulik, janji rasa sedap :p Tu namanya ayat memujuk diri sendiri. Cuba lagi di masa hadapan. Hahaha...

Nway, the recipy was taken from http://www.jintanmanis.com/ yang bertuankan Puan Rosmarlina ye. Gi la masuk sana, harus sawan makan lepas tuh. Huhuhu...

Puff Sardin Segera

Bahan-bahannya;

3 keping roti paratha segera
1 tin kecil tuna flakes (in my case, sardin la)
2 sudu besar mayonis
sedikit hirisan bawang besar
sedikit lada sulah.
sedikit telur ( untuk gliss pada tuna puff nanti)

Cara-caranya
1. Buat inti tuna puff, buang minyak yang terdapat dalam tin tuna flakes, kemudian campurkan dengan hirisan bawang besar, mayonis dan lada sulah.
2. Selepas itu, ambil sekeping roti paratha segera dan bahagi 4 bahagian, letakkan satu sudu besar inti tuna di tengah-tengah roti paratha dan lipat kemas, se-akan bentuk segi tiga, susun tuna puff di atas dulang pembakar, pastikan bahagian yang di lipat diletakkan di bahagian bawah dan gunting sedikit permukaan tuna puff, gliss kan tuna puff dengan sedikit telur. Ulang langkah tadi sehingga roti paratha dan inti tuna flakes habis digunakan.
3. Akhir sekali bakar tuna puff di dalam oven pada suhu 180darjah, selama 25 hingga 30 minit ataupun sehinga puff perang. Sedap dimakan panas-panas.

Sila la g ke Tuna Puff Segera @ http://www.jintanmanis.com/ untuk cara2 melipat (especially utk org2 xreti melipat kuih seperti saya nih. Dah ada cara pun gagal jugak, camno tuh! Hahaha... Janjinya habis dengan jayanya ye, kids pun makan, so harusla kata sedap kan :p

Lari dari rumah

2010-12-15T18:58:00.000-08:00

Who? Girl & Pingu.

Why? Merajuk katanya.
When? Monday afternoon.

See the bags further behind? Bersungguh la Syafi pakai bagpack n seret trolley bag tuh. Kesian... Hehehe... But since Ibu refused to open the grill for her, she just sulked, asked for air koko, n go to sleep. Leaving her 2 BFFs 'sleeping' very near the sliding door. Berharap lagi tuh! Hahaha

Big breakfast!

2010-12-14T17:57:00.000-08:00

No la, we didn't go to McD for breakfast, other than when we stayed in KL the other day. Did I tell about the holiday? No, didn't I? Will write abt it later, kot :p
So anyway, this is what I had for breakfast yesterday. Lepas makan terus rasa bersalah sbb sgt ___ & ___. Fill in the blanks with whatever comes to your mind ya, hehehe... Just a not so basic chicken slice sandwich, no biggie there. But really filling I kid you not!

2 slices of bread

Cheese

An egg, sunny side up (telur mata kerbau)

1 chicken slice (or 2 if u r super hungry)

Salad/cucumber/tomato (to your liking)

Mayo/Chilli sauce

Fry the egg, the chicken slice, toast the bread, arrange them on top of each other.

If u want the cheese to melt, put the arranged sandwich (minus the sayur obviously) in the oven or microwave it for a while. JUST for a while, kalau tak roti tu lemau xsedap.

Then put some mayo n sauce, to your preferences.

Baca doa, sila makan :D

Busy!

2010-12-12T19:22:00.000-08:00

Busy sesaje, kan? Hehe... Not really, my busy time are mostly towards the weekend, org nak bwk balik kek ke kampung, org nak jamu mak mentua dtg rumah... Translation has taken quite a backseat lately, whats with me ala2 merajuk xnak buat translation due to that particular incident before. Hmm... Xpe la...
So anyway... We have a new addition to our list of products in Luscious. Carrot Cheese Cake :) So far the review has been good, alhamdulillah... The price is RM35 sebijik. Do try if you haven't already! :D

Nasi Goreng

2010-11-25T19:38:00.000-08:00

Yg atas tu masa sahur bulan puasa haritu rasanya. Yg bawah tu tgh mlm semalam. Haha... Konon nak g pasar malam tapi hujan... So dok je la kat rmh. Tunggu org offer nak gi belikan dinner xada la pulak, so at 11, basuh beras, masak nasik, potong daging, bawang dah siap, tinggal ikan bilis je nak tumbuk, then by 11.40 dah boleh makan. Extra cili api. Suka! Hehehe... Panas2, tgh lapar, memangla sedap :p

...

2010-11-24T19:20:00.000-08:00

I really miss those 2 years. Not so much trouble, karenah birokrasi (wah!), far from everyone (yes, absence makes the heart grow fonder, bila jauh org sayang lebih sket, hehe), everyday g cari aktiviti dgn kawan2, elaun masuk sesaje... Best la... Balik Malaysia, its reality lah kan, heavier loads the moment we stepped off board. But then again, that is life. You can't expect life to be rosy all the way, that would be fairy tales. You can't expect life to be going your way all the time, Allah gives you trials and tribulations to make you stronger, to test you, to pull you back to Him. Haritu sambil2 basuh rumah (saya kan mangsa banjir :p), dengar la ustaz jawa tuh bagi tazkirah. Jangan mengeluh, katanya. Yupp, cuba lah untuk tidak mengeluh :) Sometimes I (don't know abt others) do wish for a rewind button. Sometimes I do wish for a delete button. But then again, I am a mere human. No matter how much I want things to be different, things happens for a reason. Just accept that :)

Ubi kayu rebus :D

2010-11-23T20:13:00.000-08:00

Mak ada bagi ubi haritu. Pastu tgk FB, Mamafami g rebus ubi la pulak petang tu. Ishk... So, keluarkan ubi tu, rebus la... Tau kan rebus ubi kan? :D

Ubi Rebus
Ubi
Air
Garam

Potong ubi tuh ikut saiz yg suka.
Masukkan air sehingga melitupi (ni ayat mak ye) ubi tu.
Letak garam secukup rasa, jangan masin sgt, hilang rasa ubi tuh!
Rebus smpai empuk, then kalau air berlebih, buang air tuh. Letak semula di atas api kecil keringkan sehingga airnya hapus (again, ayat Hjh Tiarom).
Boleh dihidang bersama smbal ikan bilis (mcm biasa mak saya buat), or kelapa parut ngan garam, or gula, or sukati la, ikutla kebiasaan sendiri.

Luscious...

2010-11-14T01:05:00.000-08:00

This is what's keeping me busy these days :) Busy is good, ey?

Yg ni Chocolate Brownies. We also have Non-Bake Cheesecake, and also Chocolate Marble Cheese Brownies. So weekdays selalunya xde la busy sgt so bole buat kerja2 office, nak dekat weekend busy. Alhamdulillah... :)

Hooked on

2010-11-11T08:41:00.000-08:00

Haven't been updating the blog. Coz I have been super busy. Seriously! Even now I'm waiting for the brownies to bake. Am so freakin tired! Isk...
Anyway, this was on my status just now. ( ‎.. ... .... .... . .... ... .. .... ... .. ..... .. .... ... .... ....... .. ..!!!!!!) Go figure, hehe... I know in days to come I myself won't be able to decipher it but... That is exactly how I'm feeling at the moment. No right or wrong, it's already out of my hands. And the song above has nothing to do with it. Tetiba mcm best lak dgr Miss Ana Raffali ni nyanyi :) Kot. Hehe... Sedapla lagunya... Kan? Kan?
Anyway... I didn't get the translating job I was sooooooo aiming for. For no specific reason. She tried to call, but my phone was uncontactable, so maybe she thinks I wasn't serious. Not my rizq kot, kena fikir mcm tu la... Frust la jugak... Bila contact dia balik, she said nanti. In my line of work, xboleh nak tunggu2 la. Kena faham sendiri la kot. Sigh... So mari kita ulang dan ulang dan ulang lagi lagu ni smpai mabuk! Haha... Kena sedapkan hati sendiri, no matter how heavy it is :)

I wish...

2010-11-09T00:27:00.000-08:00

A lil understanding would be nice

:)

2010-10-26T00:05:00.000-07:00

Sometimes we need a wake up call. I guess...

An off day... For me!

2010-10-13T20:00:00.000-07:00

Mr Hubby took a day off, to pamper me. Yeay! So after the trip for the next investment, off to MidValley. Ye, g Midvalley je, laki I xreti g tempat xbiasa pegi nih. Hasilnya, seperti di bawah :D

Thank you sayang!

Sebelum Cahaya

2010-10-01T19:12:00.000-07:00

Lately sgt suka dgr lagu ni. N nope, I don't watch sinetrons ye, xkuasa nak follow. Dah lama suka but lately sgt selalu keluar tv so selalu dgr so hooked up to it again.

Last week was fun! Ayah, Mak n of course Hadirah came over. But Ayah had to go back on Saturday sebab banyak jemputan. Mak stayed until Thursday. Yeay! Brought Mak n Hadirah to Kizsport Saturday evening, it was Nabilah's birthday party. Gosh, semua org dah besar! Kakak nak PMR dah 5th October ni! Wow! Syahmi pun nak masuk pre-school dah next year, tetiba mcm melancholic sket. Mmm...
So anyway, tido kat rumah Angah n Kakak kat belakang 1Utama tuh, lepak smpai Sunday. Pastu menyesal, sbb dah dekat sgt with 1U n IKEA tp xgi. Hahaha... K Long datang gak Sunday tu, lunch. G beli lunch kat Sg Penchala, kedai blakang Masjid kat traffic light yg org leh parking suka hati tuh. Gila kejap tgk lauk banyak gilos! Nama kedai was Sambal Hijau. The green sambal is gila pedas! Terus selsema balik! Nah, don't blame the sambal, mmg nak selsema pun, haha... Malam lps dinner baru balik. Otsukaresama Angah Kakak N Nabilah...
Mula2 nak ikut mak balik, tp ada kena jmpa org, open houses n sekian sekian, so kensel la. Ikut smpai KL Sentral je, pastu naik atas hntar perencah, then bwk kids mkn KFC sbb diorg dah nmpak dan dan tuh lapar! Huh! Td kat rumah xde plak laparnya kan? Pusing2 kedai magazine, then balik... Pastu xtau kena trn n change train kat Sg Buloh, so lari naik tangga with Syafiyah on the stroller. Ya, gigih I angkat stroller itu! Haha... Sebbaik diorg tunggu n mujur ada harapan lg utk org Msia, bagi gak duduk. Mesti muka dah macam nak pengsan nye :p Teringat peristiwa mengejar shinkansen dgn geng g Hiroshima dulu. Macam tu la rupanya. Cuma ni xde geng nak jerit2 la, hahaha...

2010-09-20T20:09:00.000-07:00

Selamat Hari Raya... We had fun! And an extremely tiring Raya celebrataion. So much so that me & the kids caught the fever last weekend. Terpaksala En Shah EL on Monday, cause the wife pun dah demam tu kan :p Nway, pictures are on FB.

Lalallaa

2010-08-03T22:57:00.000-07:00

I did small braids on Syafiyah's hair last night. And she was cooperating! Haha.. Must be nice having someone doing your hair, lalok je muka dia. Haha... Not so neat, saja2 buat je pun. Td bukak kembang la rmbut bdk tu :p

And this was last night's dinner. Daging Lada Hitam. Their favorite. And simple to cook too!

Hehe... I was craving for lasagna. But malas nak buat sbb mereka ni tekak melayu, nnti mak kena masak banyak jenis la, malas, hahaha... So after the merjauk episode, telan2 air liur episode, finally on Friday En Hubby asked, 'kita nak keluar tak mlm ni? Mkn lasagna jom? Kesian awak.' Hehehe... So dgn gembira rasa gembira yg amat sgt nak melompat2 (tipu je tu, happy je la, xde la nak melompat pun), we went out to Secret Recipes. Alhamdulillah... En Hubby senyum je tgk muka excited wifey dia. Lama tau mintak! Huhuhu... N no, bukan craving sbb pregnant ye, saya mmg dah lama nak mkn, xberkesempatan nak pegi je. Krg g sorg krg, mcm xbest lak, mkn sesedap dia nya xde.
On Saturday we went to Shah Alam for Aiman's birthday. We were supposed to go to Lenn's kenduri aqiqah, but the troop slept gila2 nye. Huh! Sampai kat party Aiman dah 4.30pm, n party nya hbs kol 5, boleh? Lambat gila! Then we went to Puchong to pick up the kids (n their Ayah's) present. Then dinner with Abang n Kak Za at Seri Kembangan. Then balik. Ingat nak test present tuh, tapi bdk2 dah tido, so xberjaya laa...
Sunday morning carik breakfast semua kedai dah xde. Lapar rupanya org Bandar Sg Buaya di pg Ahad ye? Hahaha... So kena la buat breakfast. Buat Bihun Sup je. Lunch lak En Hubby g beli Nasi Ayam. Pastu lepas maghrib dia ajak keluar g carik bnda utk present mereka tu, so mkn lagi kat luar. Record ni, 3 hari xmasak. Pastu semua request bagi je. Like he was on a mission lak, to please me, haha... Xpe la, bagusla tu. Then I should do the same for him la kan?
Harini ada appt ngan prospect. Harap2 jadi la... Ni kejap lg nak g bawak the kids g school. Diorg tgh mandi, super excited nmpaknya tuh. Alhamdulillah...

Movie Night

2010-07-29T19:05:00.000-07:00

Promised the kids to watch The Sorcerer's Apprentice. It was fun! And the kids loved it! Especially Syahmi coz he likes the song. What to do, my kids listen to hitz.fm @ mix.fm. Non intentionally, belagak jauh sekali (I penah kena, ok!), but it's kinda natural that the kids will follow what the parents do, right? They do listen to malay songs of course, the likes of FT, Bunkface. Hehe...

So anyway, Encik Hubby SMSed; 'Sayang, kita g tgk movie nak mlm ni? Esok baru mkn lasagna , mlm esok sure ramai org nye'. Cerita batubelah batu betangkup versi syariza ye, dah sebulan request xdapat lg lasagna nye! So siap2, keluar. Xde la hebat pun, just watched at selayang Capitol. All the better! There were only 10 people (including Syahmi & Syafiyah) in the hall! Sesuka hati la anak2 aku duduk mana2. Our favorite scene? The musical tesla. Cool! But being a Disney movie, you can't expect an over the top fighting scene obviously. But then, kami mmg suka cerita2 karut mcm ni, haha... Pastu... Its Con Air all over again. I just L.O.V.E Nicolas Cage! Sangat! Boleh tak tolong sikat sket rambut dia?

Ni Syahmi nye fav song la, for this week. Terpaksa la ibunya download,, but I like it too, so no problem over there :p

Next up? The Last Airbender! Yeay!

Rendang Ayam

2010-07-15T08:12:00.000-07:00

I suddenly have the craving for Chicken Rendang. Not the 'craving' craving, hehe... Dah lama xmakan. Mr Hubby prefers Rendang Daging, me don't eat rendang daging unless if there's nothing else there. N this one mengelat sket, guna Perencah Seri Tunjung, hehe... Ye la, dah awak menjual, kalau sendiri xmengguna mcm mana la kan? But if you want a spicier hotter rendang, better take the MAHARANI rendang paste. Seri Tunjung is from Kelantan, Kelantanese doesn't eat too spicy food (generally speaking la ni). But cukupla to satisfy my tekak... Tekak adalah jahat lately, but then again, thats what u get from bloghopping di food blogs yg banyak itew! Huhuhu...
Ok, enough for now. Xde resepi sebab instant, haha... Nak masuk office balik la ye. Another sleepless night for me... Huuu...

Proofreading

2010-07-12T20:23:00.000-07:00

Alhamdulillah... Just finished the 1st part of the thesis last night. Nope, not mine. I am doing proofreading (editing to some) for a friend's PHD student. He's from Iran, in a big rush coz he'll be going home on the 22nd. A little pressured. But like Yana said, we last minute workers work best under stress! Haha... Alhamdulillah, for me, my income comes from these jobs, so busy is good, ey? But kesian the kids la, kena layan diri sendiri. & alhamdulliah again, Syahmi boleh diharap jaga adik dia. Layan je, then bila adik leka, dtg kat ibu mengadu. Adik ni, tired Ami. Haha.. Banyak permintaan cik puan tu kat abang dia, paksa tau Syahmi layan! Hahaha...
Ok, back to the office. Am trying to finish this ASAP. Panda pun panda laaaa (am referring to the eyes, hehe)

Germany 3-2 Uruguay

2010-07-10T20:58:00.000-07:00

Huda, aku pinjam gmbar ko ek, hehehe... Hmm... I would very much prefer if they got the cup instead. But 3rd place is consolation la... Dah penat terover perform masa awal2 kot (alasan!). Watched it on TV1 first, then changed to Arena. Ye, rumah kami xde SuperSports. So? Komplen kalu, tolong bayarkan. Haha... Mula2 pengulas sukan tu buat ulasan the game in Malay. Not that I have anything against the language, I hate the way they comment! Tepekik pekik! Dulu masa kat Nihon pun dgr comment in their mother touge jugak tp xla irritating sangat. Ke sebab mmg aku xpaham? :p Malaysia should get some new sports commentator. Yg ok sket mcm Rahim Razali, dia tenang sket. Hasbullah Awang is a no to me, sila bersara ye. Dahla haritu komen game World Cup tersyasyul. 1 nya sukati ckp nama org, pastu ayat best, ... pada PIALA THOMAS tahun ini. Deyyy!! I knowla WC is like 4 years sekali tp kalo sasul smpai beberapa kali n bukanla 1st match pun, adalah agak unacceptable. Kalo sekali bolehla buat lawak, tp... Yelah, mere human kan?

Malam ni tgk finals pulak. Oranje ka Spain ka?

Tangan dia

2010-07-07T01:09:00.000-07:00

Sian dia kan? Bila la nak elok nih :( Nampak lg teruk sebab dia garu. Bila garu, luka. Comot dah tgn anak aku. Ishk...

Tiring indeed!

2010-07-04T22:45:00.000-07:00

At the moment there's a boy leaning on my left hand and a girl on my lap. Heaven. Bliss. Alhmadulillah...
Last weekend we went to Seri Kembangan, En Hubby's sister's house. His parents and Paksu's family were there. Paksu stopped by on the way to Johor, his daughter accepted the offer to do undergrad in UTM.
Saturday afternoon, lepak2 je, xde buat apa. Thought of going out but the kids were too busy playing n hubby went out with his brother. So dok je la rumah. Plus I was sleepy, thanks to the meds. Haiyaa... Rasa mcm nak letak mancis!
Then borak bagai, Mieja sampai, ntah mcm mana leh keluar topik 'Jom tgk Toy Story 3?!' Agreed to go but I didn't want to watch. Discuss lebih kurang, book tiket, so on for Sunday afternoon. Since I won't be watching the movie sebab dah tgk (nak tgk The A-Team tp show kol 9.30mlm), Mak said she wanted to tag along, mintak I bawak dia shopping. Nervous weyy!! Mana penah dating ngan mak men! Hahaha...
But the shopping date went well la actually. Kagum la ngan diri sendiri. Terpaksa beli kasut sebab dah cramp betis. I plan nak g kedai buku je, lepak baca buku free, haha.. Dah mak ajak teman shopping, on je la. Imagine berjalan n carik baju for 2 hours! Kagum kan MIL I? Menantu ni sakit kaki, dia relax je. Dah duduk makan baru ckp, lenguh dah kaki mak. Tejerit aku! Mak! Baru sekarang mak sakit kaki! Hahahaha... Mak beli baju utk Dina, akak xsempat nak g sendiri n senang xde bdk tag along kan. Pastu utk abah, ngan Paksu. Aku beli seluar Syahmi, blouse Syafiyah, shirt utk Mr Shah. Suka! Walaupun tu bkn kaler yg dia biasa pakai :p Kita kena mengambil kesempatan ke atas sale2 yg ada :p
Kesimpulannya, kaki aku lenguh lagik. Huhuhu... Lenkali kalo nak bawak mak shopping kena pakai sneakers or ballet shoes tu la, gagah sket nak jln 2-3 jam :p
Nway, happy sebab Germany menang gilos gilos! n Xberapa happy sebab tgn syafiyah xelok lagi dari serangan gigitan serangga tuh. Tp td letak bedak sejuk mcm surut sket. Mmm...

Mee Bandung, Mee Sup, n Azzurri

2010-06-24T09:48:00.000-07:00

Mlm ni msk simple je. Xberapa larat, subuh td bangun teruk betul selsema. Pesal ntah. Ingat nak puasa, tp kot dah nak bernafas pun susah, xdapeklaa... Bangun trn bwh mkn ubat, terbukak tv plak. Tertengok bola plak. But pg td nye match ok la lagik, xmenyedihkan mcm mlm ni punya. Huwaaaaaa..... Frust gua! Huh! Azzurri! Apekah!?!
Nway, dinner td masak Mee Sup for the kids (dedua bertambah, alhamdulillah...), n Mee Bandung for me n Mr Hubby. Recycle gmbar lama je, td meong kepala, xleh fokus. Sebbaik menjadi kuahnya (harusla jadi sebab guna perencah MAHARANI tu kan). Promote nih! Haha... Budak2 tu kalau diikutkan sgt suka sup ayam. Kot pagi bihun sup, tgh hari nasik ngan sup ayam, dinner bihun sup jugak pun boleh. Paling best bila diorg ckp, Tq Ibu, masakkan chicken sup for Ami n Adik (obviously Syahmi is the one talking, adik nye yg paham part Tq ibu tu je, tu pun selalu terbalik ckp welocome ibu!). N best tp xbest bila dedua sebok nak dtg kiss n give ibu a hug dengan tgn n mulut xbasuh lagik! Huaaaa, bau sup ayam daaa...
Ni dedua xtido lagi, tgk shaun the sheep. N melayan frustration ibu terhadap world cup tahun ini. Semua yg aku sokong semua kalah! Aku nak sokong Brazil la, biar diorg kalah jugak! Hahaha

Ketam Masak Cili

2010-06-16T20:23:00.000-07:00

Aritu g Tesco jumpa ketam, nmpak ok, so belila 4 ekor comel2. Can't buy too much, I am the only one who knows how to eat it. Ye, hubby saya xbiasa mkn bnda2 ssh nak mkn ni. Kalau iktkan dia, udang pun nak kena buang kulit semua, ikan cencaru pun sama, hbs hilang segala kemanisannya. Ikan terubuk, ikan parang, nak mkn blk Seremban je la Sya. Huhuhu... Sian I...
So anyway, if ayah buys crabs, mak would make Kari Ketam. If K Long, she would make it into Gulai Ketam (gulai org N9 ialah masak lemak kuning ye puan2, hehe). So I thought maybe I'll make something different, plus tertengok gmbar kat FB org. Haih!

Heaven

2010-06-13T20:01:00.000-07:00

Was on the way back from Seremban last night, and this song came out on radio. And a sudden burst of memories flooded into mind. Hmm... Good ones, not so good ones.. Bad? None that I can recall. Regrets? None whatsoever, things happen for a reason. And memories serve as a reminder, of the what ifs, of days happy and sad, of things we could smile at, of things we shared, of things we knew, of... Lots of them doesn't it? As of now, I'm content with listening n singing along to this, and bersyukur of what I had, what I have now, and what I will have later in my life. It's the song that I loved, not the stories behind, hehehe

Sanggul Arab

2010-05-17T22:15:00.000-07:00

Copied from email;

Sanggul Arab - Is it haram

It's a trend nowadays that many muslim Malaysian women are into the new hijab wearing i.e. wearing a shawl-like syrian style hijab. I posted on my Fb status recently stating that I too, would want to wear the syrian women hijab style with high bun but unfortunately my hair is short thus cannot tie or do a bun at all.I also received few suggestions to buy fake buns online or at Arzu, KLCC.

I used to study in an arabic-medium school and had learned that when you wear tudung, you're not supposed to show any indication that your hair is long by tying your hair really high/do a bun until men can notice the presence of your long hair eventhough you wear your cover/hijab. That defeats the purpose of wearing a hijab.However, I can't remember the hukum whether it's haram or harus or makruh.

Being curious, I googled about this sanggul arab issue and found the hadith related:

Quote::
“ akan muncul dalam kalangan umatku di akhir zaman, kaum lelaki yang menunggang sambil duduk di atas pelana, lalu mereka turun di depan pintu-pintu masjid. Wanita-wanita mereka( isteri mereka atau anak perempuan), berpakaian tetapi seperti bertelanjang ( nipis&ketat). Di atas kepala mereka pula(wanita) terdapat bonggolan (sanggul atau tocang) seperti bonggol unta yang lemah gemalai. Oleh itu laknatlah mereka semua. Sesungguhnya mereka adalah wanita-wanita yang terlaknat”- hadith riwayat Ahmad , jil.2, ms. 223.

Rasulullah s.a.w bersabda:
Quote::
“dua golongan penghuni neraka yang mana aku sendiri belum pernah melihat keadaan mereka didunia: golongan yang membawa cemeti seperti seekor lembu lalu menggunakannya untuk memukul manusia dan juga kaum wanita yang berpakaian seperti bertelanjang, menggoyangkan badan dan berlenggang-lenggok, kepala mereka ada suatu seperti bonggol di kepala unta yang bergoyang-goyang. Mereka tentu tidak akan memasuki syurga atau mencium baunya sedangkan bau syurga itu dapat dihidu dari jarak perjalanan begitu dan begini”

–hadith riwayat Muslim. Hadith no 212-

I would say that I was tempted at first as I saw some women/celebraties/tv presenters looked really pretty wearing the syrian style hijab with high sanggul/bun. Sometimes, bila nak cantik, manusia selalu lupa pada hukum walaupon dah belajar.I am one of them. Bila nak buat benda jahat, laju je.

Anyway, in wearing hijab,niat perlukah menghalalkan cara? I dare not jatuhkan hukum or say that it is haram wearing the fake sanggul arab.However,at the moment, I'll just forget about buying the sanggul arab thingy.

Using this now

2010-05-11T23:07:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I finally took out the package from microsoft which I received months back. For what? For the upgrades. So now the Acer is officially running on Windows 7. So far so good. It's pretty, haha.. Boleh gitu? Easy (isn't all windows version easy to use?). Lain, belum betul2 mendiscover lagik.

That was a song my (our) music teacher in TKC taught us in form 1. Very catchy indeed, so everytime we r going for a holiday, this song would be playing in the back of my mind (wah! dramatic effects!) It's Mr Hubby's birthday last Sunday, so I treat him to a much needed rest at The Legend Water Chalet PD. Lama dah berangan, hehhehe... Nanti balikla baru update gambar. Last night we spent the night cuba mengambik gambar kilats d tgh lauts. Huhu... Kowaiii....

Lamanya...

2010-04-22T23:15:00.000-07:00

Lamanya xupdate kan? Kdg tu dah bkk, tp xtertulis pulak. Hehehe... Why? No idea why. Mmm... I guess I just have too much in my mind n hands! Busy nyohhhh!!! But busy is good... For someone doing freelancing, busy means $$$ hiks...
So anyway, Syahmi said I am a little too tough on him when I'm teaching him something. Or is it that he is just like me masa pregnant haritu? Suka nangis? Tegur slow2 lagi la dia nangis, kalo kena jerit xnangis la plak! Haiyaaa...
Had Syahmi's birthday party last Saturday. Just a small one, with friends. And most importantly, he enjoyed it very much!

We are going to PD this weekend! It's Mr Hubby's birthday, so I booked a chalet at Th Legend Water Chalet. Sunday till Tuesday. Bagi boss rehat minda sket. Plus I nak gak ~~cuti masak~~ merasa dok atas air, haha... Mak n ayah will be joining us on Sunday, with Hadirah, of course. Mana leh tinggal yang tu! Hehe... Bagi main ngan bdk2 nih. K Long, Angah, xmo join ka? Malam tuh korg balikla, Isnin keje :D

This is my sister in law's (and her friend, Kak Jasmine) project. And a great one indeed! The kids learn & play at the same time. Lots of activities, brilliant teachers (both the principals graduated from australia ye, bukan koman punya, and they worked for Petronas before they decided to venture into this), lots of different classes for different ages, and well, investing in your kids is always something worth doing, kan? As long as it IS a good one, for their future.

Kuah Durian

2010-03-26T03:39:00.000-07:00

MIL gave us some durian, well, actually BIL/SIL gave them. They brought 'some' from Sg Koyan. So... I made some into this kuah durian, to be eaten with the Roti Hailam we bought at Tesco the night before. Most people would prefer kuah durian with pulut (glutinous rice), but I prefer pulut with sambal bilis! And kuah durian with bread. Hehe..
So anyway, it is sooo easy to make. The hard part is to get the durian actually. The rest is a breeze :D

Kuah Durian
Durian
Santan (Coconut milk)
A pinch of salt
Sugar (I prefer brown sugar/gula enau is better!)
Pandan a.k.a screwpine leaves

Heat up the coconut milk over low heat. Put in a pinch of salt.
Put in the screwpine leaves, sugar, let it simmer for a while.
Next comes the durian. Done.

Ayam Masak Merah/Madu

2010-03-11T18:47:00.000-08:00

Xnampak pun ayam nya, menyorok. Haha... Asalnya nak goreng bodoh je ayam nih. Pastu kalut ngejar itu ini, mcm kering sgt lak tergoreng ayam tuh. Tepaksa la buat kuah (read: sebenarnya tkg msk mmg kureng sket mkn ayam grg begitu sahaja :p)

Ayam Masak Merah Bermadu

Bahan2;

Ayam

Bawang Merah

Garlic (Tumbuk)

Bawang Besar (Mayang separa halus)

Halia (Tumbuk)

Serai (Ketuk je sket)

Garam/Kunyit

Lada Kering

Sos Tomato

Sos Cili

Sos Cili Thai

Madu

Cara2;

Perap ayam dgn halia, bwg putih, garam, kunyit, @least half an hour. Jangan buang halia n bawang td.

Gorengkan ayam td, separa masak (In my case telebih grg so ikut la sukati sebenarnya, hehe). Ketepikan ayam td.

Tumiskan bawang merah, n halia+bawang putih lebih grg ayam td. Dah layu sikit, tumiskan lada kering sampai pecah minyak. Jangan lupa masukkan garam sket.

Dah pecah minyak (means lada dah garing), masukkan ayam td. Gaulkan, pastu masukkan sos2 mengikut kesedapan lidah sendiri. Tambah air sikit. Api normal ye, krg besar cpt sgt kering kuahnya. Kacau la selalu, bg rata.

Masukkan madu sikit, again, sesedap rasa. Ada org suka manis, ada org takat nak bg rasa je (aku la tuh :p).

Masukkan serai n bawang besar td, kacau rata. Kalau kuah tu terlalu kering, tmbah air sket lagi, kacau2.

Ikutla suka nak consistency kuah tu mcm mana suka. Done :D

Dah kena pantang

2010-03-03T20:16:00.000-08:00

This is my family's favorite, Udang Sweet Sour. Masalahny sekarang ni, chef kena pantang! Warghhhh!!! Tensi tau, tensi! Sebabnya, my right middle finger (mak segan nyah masa nak tunjuk kat dr, kang dia kata mak carut kat dia nnti, hehe), got sume infections, jad berair, gatal, blabla... Dr kata kena pantang jap, sebab masa blk SP harituh, diorg dok jamu udang n sotong, mlm nya aku nangis2 dah dek gatal. Bila mkn ubat alahan, knock out lak. Ish ish...

Lunch with K Na & Family

Encik Hubby has his department retreat since yesterday, @Pullman Lakeside Hotel in Putrajaya. Since yesterday me & the kids had a full day, watching movies (Alvin & The Chipmunks. Cerita yg comel tp kenapa la namanya group pompuan tuh The Chippettes! Bunyinya sgt xelok! Hahaha) & all, so today we decided to stay home. K Na SMSed saying she wants to send some kuah Yong Tau Fu (the husband makes a yummy delicious Yong Tau Fu sauce, yela, dia menjual kan, hehehe), so I asked them to come for lunch. So this is what I cooked. Simple sahaja... Ayam masak kicap, sayur campur, n sambal ikan...

Sambal Cili Api Kentang

2009-12-03T18:42:00.000-08:00

Sesuka hati je bagi nama! Hahaha... Actually, that dat Ina called me, or was it the other way round, can't remember. She said her hubby wanted this. So suddenly my tekak also craved for this. That plus Ayah bagi kentang banyak gila harituh! Nak buat begedil ada sket malas!

Sambal Cili Api Kentang

Kentang

Ikan Bilis

Kacang Buncis

Bawang Besar/Bawang Kecik

Bawang Putih

Lada Api (blend dulu)

Garam

Kicap (Optional)

Hiris kentang nenipis, ke nak buat rupa fries ke, nak buat rupa wedges (tetiba teringat cheesy wedges! Adehhhh). Rendam dlm air garam sat, then goreng.

Goreng ikan bilis lak.

Tumiskan bawang besar n bawang putih smpai wangi, masukkan lada api n garam sket.

Tambah air sket untuk gorengkan kcg buncis. Kejap je ye, nanti xsedap kalo soggy.

Masukkan kicap. What I always do is masuk segala jenis kicap yg logic nak masukkan. Hehe...

Make sure kering sket, kalau tak ikan bilis lak soggy. Masukkan ikan bilis n kentang, gaulkan. Siap!

Simple je tp kalo mkn ngan nasik panas berasap, huuuu... Sedap buat ratah, ke buat sahur ke. Ulalaaaa

KAJANG: Kejam dan tidak berperikemanusiaan apabila seorang lelaki Afrika didakwa sanggup mendera, merogol dan meliwat anak kekasihnya yang baru berusia tiga tahun sehingga kanak-kanak itu menemui ajal.
Malah, kekasih wanita terbabit yang juga seorang janda berusia 24 tahun tergamak bersekongkol dengan warga asing itu apabila sanggup berbohong dengan mereka cerita kononnya anaknya mati akibat didera pembantu rumah.
Bagaimanapun, siasatan polis mendapati fakta dalam keterangan diberikan wanita yang bekerja sebagai setiausaha itu meragukan sebelum merumuskannya sebagai pembohongan apabila mendapati wanita terbabit tidak pernah menggaji pembantu rumah yang didakwa melarikan diri sejurus selepas tragedi menyayat hati itu.
Sumber polis berkata, wanita rakyat tempatan itu dikesan menjalinkan hubungan dengan lelaki Sudan terbabit sejak beberapa bulan lalu.

Hehe...

2009-10-21T02:37:00.001-07:00

Saje2, mengisik masa lapang, tembak isik2 rumah. Hehe...

Anyway, kalau suka langsir ituh, sila call Mak Teh saya ye.

2009-08-23T20:33:00.000-07:00

Budak nih buka puasa awal. Dia mkn lagi beria2 compare ngan ibu n ayah yg puasa nih. Haha... Dah siap hidang abt 10minutes b4 buka tuh, dia terus mintak nak naik chair dia. Terus je la bg mkn dgn harapan xkacau dah org time makan. Tp dia kacau jgk! Huhuhu...

See ya!

Still...

2009-06-25T05:33:00.000-07:00

My trusted red laptop is still not okay. Urghhhhh!!!Am using the 10yrs old Acer (syukurla ada yg tuh kalau tak sure tensi lg teruk dari nih!). Sent them to 2 person already, both in Bangi, thanks to somebody's kedegilan xnak hantar dekat2 sini je. Hasilnya... Nothing. Hehe... And trips to Bangi nak hantar, nak ambik n hantar to the next kedai, nak ambik... Hmm... Kita tgk apa jd lps ni. And by the way, Dell's aftersales service sucks big time. Really!

It has been a while...

2009-05-22T04:21:00.000-07:00

It has been a while, isn't it? Busy laaa... Kemas rumah, alhamdulillah dah almost done. Ada a few more things lagi la nak touch up. Raya lambat lagik, xpe. Hihi...

Then ada a few things like my translation work, this, and that, and this, and that... Who says being a homemaker is easy, huh?!

On a lighter note, kawan korib (ni kwn2 yg bg title ye, bukan kami, hahaha) ku yg nama Kartini Abdul Aziz tuh dah bersalin, baby girl. Last Wednesday, terpanik2 aunty2 yg lagi 2 org nih carik mommy nya xangkat tepon. Tau2 kat spital. Buat surprise korang ye! Smalam nya aunty tanya mommy kata sihatttttt, ok je, xde pape. Haha... Tomorrow lepas birthday party Imran kat McD (sure Syahmi happy gila, dah dekat sebulan dia menyebut nak mkn McD dah ibu kata next time je) kita gi visit kat spital ye. Kalau nak balik rmh bagitau dulu ye Pn Tini, krg rombongan sampai, peserta xde lak kang. Hehehe...

Moving

2009-04-15T02:18:00.000-07:00

Will be moving to a new home, as in rumah baru secara reality nya (kang kat internet kang kata nak tkr blog lak, hehe) this Saturday, InsyaAllah... So currently no internet, till later date. Mengikut kata akak kat Tmpoint smalam, dlm seminggu lebih settle kot. Kot laaa...
Till then, doakan kami mudah bepindah, xsakit pinggang, xdemam, n xhujan di hari pindah nanti! Amin... :D

Daging Masak Kicap

2009-03-23T22:40:00.000-07:00

Rasa macam pernah letak b4 this. Hehe...

Sape suka angkat tangan!

2009-03-17T23:34:00.000-07:00

Haha.. Honestly, I only have Maggis, Mamees, mee segera dengan kata lain, like 2-3 times a year. Serious! Itupun bila rasa boleh tahan sakit kepala, hehehe... Hari yang gambar ni diambil, terus demam. Haha.. Pathetic!

Fish n Chips

2009-03-13T05:29:00.001-07:00

How do we get a picky eater to eat? Make him a plate of Fish n Chips. Kalau dulu kat nihon leh la carik fries Anpanman la bagai, sini redah je la whatever they have. Hehe..

Anyway, I would suggest Pacific West range of seafood, setap kata Syahmi.

Fishball Soup

2009-03-02T20:13:00.000-08:00

Lauk favorite anak2. Harituh diorg selsema n batuk, longer than the normal recuperating time diorang so buatkan fishball n quails egg soup. Mak kata telur puyuh elok utk elak lelah. Ye kot, cpt elok lps tuh.

Fishball Soup

Fishball

Telur puyoh (rebus)

Carrot @ Kentang

Su'un

Sayur Fucuk

Garlic

Tumis sket garlic tuh. Then tambah air banyak mana nak kuahnya. Masukkan fishball n carrot or kentang tadi. Dah lembut/masak, masukkan su'un, sayur fucuk, telur puyuh rebus. Garam secukup rasa. Siap....

Senang n a sure hit la, especially if banyak su'un. Well, at least budak2 nih suka. Siap dpt pujian ikhlas, Ami suka, sedapla bu! Hehehe... Anak2 adalah sgt jujur, kot dia mkn xkena rasa pun dikomennya jugak. Ulalalaaa

Project

2009-02-28T08:51:00.000-08:00

Haritu (READ: Bulan lepas ke sebelumnya) balik Seremban, then bawak balik buku resepi mak yg tulis jawi tuh balik. KATANYA nak taipkan balik. Tetapi... The progress is so slow... Reasons sama seperti di entry sebelum ini. Haha... Tapi dah 1/4 done laaaa... Kena tambah R lebih sket, err, banyak lagik :p

Cara favorite saya

2009-02-20T02:09:00.000-08:00

These are my favorite. Ayah grg belada, ikan grg belada, telur grg belada tp ni xde gmbar laaa. Org lain kata msk sambal, MIL kata msk cabai. Sukatila nak panggil apa pun, hehehe... This type of dish sedap dimakan dengan gulai lemak putih kobis, gulai labu, suai bonar lah tuh! Kok ikan tuh ikan talapia ke, ikan sembilang ke, lagiiila sodap. Hmm... Tapi FIL I dah bela ikan lain, ikan fevret I dah xde dah. Huhuhu

Alasan-alasan itu...

2009-02-16T08:18:00.000-08:00

1. Busy (I am, with the kids, new books, the house, and work)
2. Not feeling well (I am, for the past 2weeks)
3. No mood (I am, the lazy wind blew too hard this time)
4. Idea-less (And picture-less as well)
5. Berebut PC (Taught Syahmi to use the PC, so have to take turns with him)

Lagi, dan lagi, dan lagi. Tuh semua reasons why xupdate, xbuat tag, xitu dan xini. Malas tuh kata je lah malas, kan? Hehehe

Syafiyah's Birthday Dinner Party

2009-01-20T03:19:00.000-08:00

Panjang ak tajuk? Hahaha...

Semua last minute birthday dia nih. Last minute decide, last minute plans, last minute orders, & kalau dah nama last minute tuh sure la ada kejadian2 pelik berlaku kan? Kami order nasi ayam for 20 org makan, encik di kedai buatkan 20 BUNGKUS nasi ayam! Xkanla akak nak serve kat org dlm polysterine pack kot! Tapir sungguhs! So kalutla ibu n ayah membuka satu2 bungkusan nasi, kuah sup, kicap n sambal ladanya. Ye, even the kicap2 pun dia pack kan mcm nak tapau kat kedai tuh. Sangatla sabarnya, karang marah jadi xsyok birthday party dia. Hehehe...

Yang lain sume buat sendiri je. Simple sahaja...

Gulai Ketam

2009-01-14T00:11:00.000-08:00

Saya sgt suka mkn ketam. Nak nak kalau mak masak kari yg kering tuh. Sedapnya...

Since saya org N9, gulai sangat senang. Santan, kunyit idup, lada api, garam, serai, ketam.

Make sure tak naik tahi minyak, n jangan pedas sangat or kemanisan ketam tuh hilang.

Mee Kari

2008-12-25T21:07:00.000-08:00

Zurin bagi mee kari haritu masa dia pulangkan mini bar tuh. Backup guna masa birthday Iman.

Tengok macam sikit sangat so tambah, alter, n tadaaaaa. Gitu la hasilnya. Hehe...

Sepetang di Pantai Kemasik

2008-11-25T02:52:00.000-08:00

We went for our vacation in Cherating last week. Sabtu tuh lepas pemastautin tetap pool tuh puas hati, kami siap2 n gerak... Stop la kat Pantai Kemasik... Atas sket from Kemaman n Kijal as in Awana Kijal. Jauh kami jalan harituh rupanya. Hehe...

Nway, Pantai Kemasik was beautiful. Tapi xleh mandi la, cuma admire the beauty je. Seronokla buat shooting practise. Sementara aku exercise jari n mata, Encik Hubby lepak mkn ABC ngan rojak buah. Hehe...

Dinner simple sahaja...

2008-11-13T02:04:00.001-08:00

Fikir2 nak masak apa... So masakla daging masak merah (perasan ak aku suka msk merah? hehe...), kawannya sayur kobis lemak putih n telur dadar.

DAGING MASAK MERAH
Daging
Halia
Garlic
Bawang besar
Serai
Kunyit
Garam
Lada kering

Halia n garlic tuh ditumbuk.
Potong daging, lagi nipis lagi sedap benarnya, senang nak makan n lagi serap rasa{ini sekadar teori ye. Hehe...
Basuh daging, then gaul dengan halia n garlic tumbuk tadi, n kunyit n garam. Biar dlm at least stengah jam.
Panaskan minyak, leburkan daging tadi. Gaul2 sket, masukkan air dlm 2 gelas. Tutup dengan tudung periuk ke pape la perkara yg boleh guna utk tutup kuali tuh.
Bila air dah agak2 kering, test daging dah lembut ke belum. If belum, repeat the process.
If dah lembut, masukkan bawang besar yang dipotong bulat2 n serai yg diketuk.
Bila bawang dah layu sikit, masukkan lada kering. Kacau2, biar sampai naik minyak.
Rasa, kalau dah ok, matikan api. Sedia dah untuk dimakan...

Ikan Sembilang Sambal

2008-11-11T00:13:00.000-08:00

Mak panggil ni Ikan Sembilang Goreng Berlada, tapi dek org lain sume kata msk smbal, kita terima je la. sama je pun. Hehe... Oh, and most people calls it ikan keli. Lantakla, sama je bendanya. Mak mentua I panggil masak cabai. Ikutla negeri mana nak ikut. Haha... Cara nak masak senang je, ikan tuh sukatila nak kerat2 ke, nak biar sekor ke, kok xpanjang benar ok je benarnya. Tapi sebab dah biasa, maka camtu la rupa nya. Org N9 panggil camtula ghoman eh. Hehe... Ikan tuh, kok xnak bau hanyir ke apa, basuhla ngan air asam ke. Pastu salut ngan garam n kunyit cam biasa, gorengla garing. Garing tuh bagus, senang nak mkn ngan tulang2 sekali.

Ikan sembilang nih, kok nak msk smbal belado nih, sedapnya di blend bwg merah, bwg putih. Saya rajin letak halia sket. Sket je, banyak xsodap. Pastu goreng bwg, agak2 dah wangi, masukkan lada kering. Kot nak ada rupa or texture, mayangla bwg besar sket. Saya suka bawang so saje2 je letak bawang besar tuh. Hehe... Pastu gorengla ca biasa, pastu salutkanla kat ikan tuh. Anak saya suka ikan sembilang, n other ikan sungai la. Macam ibu dia, orang kampungla katakan...

Nway, mak saya ajar, dan telah membiasakan, ikan sambal ke grg berlada ni ke, layaknya makan ngan gulai lomak sayur. Sawi lemak putih ke... Atau yg saya buat nih, Gulai lemak labu. Nih lagi senang. Rebus labu tuh kok keras sangat, then leburkanla santan, garam, kunyit sket, ikan bilis buat perisa. Dah lembut, masakla kiranya tuh. Kot nak bau sedap. letakla daun kunyit. Wangi je bau gulai tuh nanti.

What's for dinner?

2008-11-06T04:01:00.000-08:00

Hehe.. We only have ikan sungai (org lain kata ikan darat) n ayam kampung boleh masak banyak kali lagi. Nak beli lauk lain pun entah bila habisnya nanti isi fridge tuh. Not that I'm complaining, saya sangat suka mkn ikan sungai (especially ikan sembilang and ikan talapia) n ayam kampung (buek ghondang ko, gulai ngan nangko mudo ko). Tetapi orang lain di rumah ni orang bandar, mereka tidak pandai makan lauk-lauk kampung nih. Hehe... Tapi kalau dah masak terpaksa gakla telan, kan? Berani nak keluar makan luar? Sungguh unappreciative! Eating it once in a while won't kill you laaa.

So anyway (panjang la plak bebelan ye? Hehe..), nak buat gulai je ayam tuh, ada orang kata dah selalu sangat makan, so have to find a new recipy to cook. Nak buat rendang adalah sangat malas plus xcukup bahan (itu semua alasan je, hehe..), so I resort to this...

Ayam Ungkep

1 ekor ayam kampung (bersihkan dan potong 12)

Tumbuk halus:

5 sudu besar ketumbar

3 sudu besar jintan putih

4cm halia

1 sudu besar lada hitam (saya ganti ngan lada api, tu pun mcm xcukup pedas je)

4 batang serai

6 ulas bawang putih

8 ulas bawang merah

4cm kunyit hidup

Sedikit air asam jawa

garam

4 cawan air.

Cara:Lumur ayam dgn bahan tumbuk, garam, air asam dan isikan dalam kuali , tuangkan air dan kacau sebentar. Tutup kuali dengan penutup periuk yg tinggi dan didihkan hingga ayam masak serta kering kuahnya.

Mee Goreng Yang Berbeza

2008-11-04T02:47:00.001-08:00

Apa beza yang atas ngan yg bawah? Hehe...
Atas mee goreng basah, plus xde sayur, dah abis masa tuh. Yang nih Syahmi's favorite, and mine sebab xmelejeh-lejeh dia nak mkn. Xla comot sangat.
Bawah mee hailam, ada sket tapi banyak tenggelam dek isi2 yg melimpah tuh. Ni Mr Hubby request, nak mee goreng yg berkuah. Cakap je la mee hailam kan senang! Haha...

As per requested

2008-10-30T20:15:00.000-07:00

Syahmi requested these for his brunch yesterday. Ami nak roti letak sosej n cheese n salad n mayo, nak fries, nak murtabak. Waduhhhh, tau je apa ada dlm fridge tuh. That's what happens when your kids go with you for grocery shopping, mereka tahu apa yang ada atau tidak kat dapur tuh, hence the requests. Hehehe...
