DMC-FS7
Hampir 4.5 jam kami di Alamanda, kaki dan pinggang lenguh yg amat. Objektif utama mencari digicam baru utk menggantikan Nikon kami yg ala2 segan nak hidup mati tak mahu, dan kolam plastik utk idlan & firas bermandi-manda di porch. Oh satu lagi, mencari sports shoe idlan khas utk acara sukan tadika nya pada minggu depan. Dan setelah membuat perbandingan di 3 outlet, akhirnya kami membeli ini...FS7 di Fotokem. Terlebih RM60 dari budget asal. Tu pun ade orang tu dah berbelah bagi sama ada nak amik FS7 atau FS15 yang sedikit lebih mahal. Ingat frugal ye B...hehehehe. Kami punyer kaler pink-rose (aku nampak more towards shocking pink!)...biru takde stock. Bila di comparekan yg baru dgn yg lama tu....waaa seperti langit dan bumi...almaklum la Nikon lama tu takde anti-shake...yg baru ni siap bley amik gambar fan yg tgh ligat berpusing, kagum kami (ke jakun akakakaka). Yang pasti, next week bolehla snap gambar idlan byk2 time sports day dia nanti.
Esok pagi nak rendam kekanak berdua tu dlm kolam baru. Si abang mmg dah tak sabar!
Oppps sebelum menutup tirai, jgn lupa jenguk2 ke Nisastore untuk produk terbaru kami okeh :)

Review on Medela bottle liners…
1. Easy handling since the liner can stand on its own without support (I think other brands do not have this, correct me if I’m wrong);
2. It comes with a very strong and sturdy strap; hence avoid milk to spill out and no need to use rubber band to tie it up;
3. And very expensive compared to other brands.
Nope I’m not paid for giving the review, nor did I gain anything out of it. It’s purely based on my personal experience using the ONLY 20 liners I have in possession, as complimentary gift during my purchase of Medela swing. Actually I almost forgot I have those stored inside my drawer, I got panicked for few minutes realizing I’m running out of stock for the bekas dadih :p Oh Medela liners, you truly became my savior on that fortunate day hihi
latest stock...i think they can survive till Firas reaches 1 yr but after Ramadhan ntahla cukup ke idak hum hummmm

Roseola Virus
Hmm Firas dah demam since last Tuesday, high fever sbb at times his temperature shot up to almost 40 celcius. Kelmarin demam dah almost kebah, but suddenly yesterday he developed lots of rashes, from face spreading down to his neck, arm, chest, back, and abdomen. Campak ke allergic ni...konfius kitorang. Nursery kata dia mkn porridge budak lain, ade ikan bilis (sbb dia dah bosan dgn my porridge huhu). Well aku taknah kasik bilis all this while..was it the culprit?
Pagi ni bwk lagi jumpa paed, and paed kata ohhh this is 'roseola virus'. Very common among babies (tapi idlan taknah kena pon :p). It started with high fever that lasted for few days, followed by rashes. So now back in office i googled the net and found this...just for my further understanding :)
Definition
Roseola is a common disease of babies or young children, in which several days of very high fever are followed by a rash.
Description
Roseola is an extraordinarily common infection, caused by a virus. About 90% of all children have been exposed to the virus, with about 33% actually demonstrating the syndrome of fever followed by rash.
The most common age for a child to contract roseola is between six and twelve months.
Roseola strikes suddenly, when a previously-well child spikes an impressively high fever. The most notable thing about this early phase of roseola is the absence of symptoms, other than the high fever. Although some children have a slightly reddened throat, or a slightly runny nose, most children have no symptoms whatsoever, other than the sudden development of high fever. This fever lasts for between three and five days. Somewhere around the fifth day, a rash begins on the body. The rash is usually composed of flat pink patches or spots, although there may be some raised patches as well. The rash usually starts on the chest, back, and abdomen, and then spreads out to the arms and neck. It may or may not reach the legs and face. The rash lasts for about three days, then fades.

Tadi time hantar firas ke nursery, si abang tgh practise games for his upcoming sports day. Riuh bangat dekat luar nursery ngan bebudak tu sumer menjerit2....tak sabar rasanyer nak attend sports day dia kali nih. Last yr i was in my confinement hence pruzz je yg teman idlan dekat padang. This time around i better be sure not to miss the chance...dan disebabkan itu maka kitorang kenalah cepat tukar digicam baru...nikon yg lama ni sgtla bosan, tade anti-shake, bateri bila dah charge pon still jadi zero, nyawa2 ikan gitu!

cerita hari ini
Rasa sihat bila dpt breakfast dgn roti wholemeal+1 slice of cheese+horlicks panas pagi ni. Bertambah sihat rasanyer bila dpt menahan diri dari mkn nasi lemak/nasi goreng/mee goreng dan makanan berminyak yg seangkatan dgnnyer. Mlm semlm pon tak mkn nasi goreng..mkn mihun sup jer. Aiskrim dlm freezer cuma mkn 2-3 sudu. Sneakers/kit kat/Mars pon dah seminggu tak beli kat mynews.com di opis tuh. Alhamdulillah kelmarin satu hari perut sihat tade masalah. Harap2 program diet UNTUK SIHAT ku ini berjln dgr lancar hehehe. Hari tu jumpe doktor berat 53.6kg..agak2 kalo lama tak jamah nasi lemak bley kurang lagi tak? :p
Ex-opismate buzz kejap tadi..katanyer dah ade kes H1N1 kat T* (import from singapore). Not sure how true it is since the co didnt make any official statement yet. Bestnyer kalo opis kena tutup temporarily hihi.
Semlm, dgn rasminya kami semua berjaya berpindah balik ke master bedroom (proses mengemas dari pagi ke ptg siap ade break byk kali). It has been left vacant ever since firas was born, maknanye almost a yr la jugak. All this while i slept with firas dekat bilik bwh, sementara idlan dgn abahnyer tido kat living hall. Sian kan? Best rasanye dpt merasa katil queen balik :)) Next week insya allah pruzz akan start dgn make over project utk bilik idlan...hopefully before mak ude balik kl nanti rumah dah kemas dan tidakla berkeadaan spt tongkang pecah macam sekarang :p

changing your lifestyle?
After careful thoughts, i think it's about time i take a serious step towards changing my lifestyle (read: my diet). Say NO to chocolate, spicy and oily foods (bubye spaghetti bolognese & tomyam), fried foods and many others as stated in my previous post. I foresee it's not going to be easy, but i'm still young (ye ker?), and to stay healthy is important above any other things in this world. Since i'm on mc today, i cook this just now. Mee sanggul leftover yesterdays to be eaten with carbonara sauce. No chilli, less oilly. Kira ok dok?
This one was made yesterday, mee sanggul hailam (mee diimport dari kedah lagik you dijamin halal :) ...no chilli padi added, tapi B kata still sedap. Disebabkan sedap, kasikla semangkuk ke jiran depan umah hehe...kalo tak sedap malu wooo nak kasik2 org nih :p
GERD
I warn you, this is a very long entry, merely posted for my personal reference. The gastro said my condition is more towards a reflux, so i googled the net and found this....
What is gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)?
Gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) does not close properly and stomach contents leak back, or reflux, into the esophagus. The LES is a ring of muscle at the bottom of the esophagus that acts like a valve between the esophagus and stomach. The esophagus carries food from the mouth to the stomach.
---> Yup my doc did mention that my valve is some kind of loose hence make it easier for the acid to come up to esophagus.
When refluxed stomach acid touches the lining of the esophagus, it causes a burning sensation in the chest or throat called heartburn. The fluid may even be tasted in the back of the mouth, and this is called acid indigestion. Occasional heartburn is common but does not necessarily mean one has GERD. Heartburn that occurs more than twice a week may be considered GERD, and it can eventually lead to more serious health problems.
---> of late i experience heartburn every time after consuming food, even in a small amount. It really causes serious discomfort, at times i feel like not wanting to eat at all.
What are the symptoms of GERD?
The main symptoms are persistent heartburn and acid regurgitation. Some people have GERD without heartburn. Instead, they experience pain in the chest, hoarseness in the morning, or trouble swallowing.
the doctor may recommend avoiding
sodas that contain caffeine
chocolate and peppermint ---> choc?? my favourite!!
spicy foods like pizza
acidic foods like oranges and tomatoes
fried and fatty foods
What causes GERD?
No one knows why people get GERD. A hiatal hernia may contribute. A hiatal hernia occurs when the upper part of the stomach is above the diaphragm, the muscle wall that separates the stomach from the chest. The diaphragm helps the LES keep acid from coming up into the esophagus. When a hiatal hernia is present, it is easier for the acid to come up. In this way, a hiatal hernia can cause reflux. A hiatal hernia can happen in people of any age; many otherwise healthy people over 50 have a small one.
Also, certain foods can be associated with reflux events, including
citrus fruits
chocolate --> my favourite
drinks with caffeine
fatty and fried foods --> my favourite
garlic and onions
mint flavorings
spicy foods ---> favourite jugaks!
tomato-based foods, like spaghetti sauce, chili, and pizza --> no wonder i had a serious attack last thursday rite after i took spaghetti for lunch
Medications:
1. Foaming agents, such as Gaviscon, work by covering your stomach contents with foam to prevent reflux. These drugs may help those who have no damage to the esophagus
2. Proton pump inhibitors include omeprazole (Prilosec), lansoprazole (Prevacid), pantoprazole (Protonix), rabeprazole (Aciphex), and esomeprazole (Nexium), which are all available by prescription. Proton pump inhibitors are more effective than H2 blockers and can relieve symptoms in almost everyone who has GERD.
This morning the doc asked whether i am covered? i said yes. Then he said okla i give you Nexium. This is imported, very expensive tau. I'll give you for a month's stock.
hmm bersyukurnyer keje kat T*............:p

angel of my heart
This little munchkin turns 10 months & 1 week today.
His accomplishments to date:
- 4 complete teeth, 2 on the upper, another set on the lower gums.
- Loves to climb, climb, climb. Last night I break my fast in SR at the nearby Jusco and he was sooo eager to climb up onto our table, looking at the wide spread of foods being served :p And oh he also struggles to climb out of his stroller, facing backward that is.
- Babbles “mamamamama” and no other than that. Si idlan sibuk tanye si adik…bila nak sebut ‘abang’, bila nak sebut ‘abah’? hehehe
- Scream all his lungs out (sgt high-pitch mind u) when being left behind. I’d say my critical time is in between 6:30-7:00pm when I need to leave him on the tilam while I unload their kindy bags, idlan’s uniform, my handbag, cooler bag, and of course that day’s tapau food for dinner out of the car. Sambung jerit when I continue to ignore him and start to arrange my EBMs inside the fridge, place the ice packs inside freezer, bukak tudung, salin baju and heat his puree for 1 min. Sgt tensi bila dia jerit2 tu. He shed tears ok…very dramatic and manja! When all works done I quickly attend to him, dukung, and he’ll smile all over…showing his cheeky face :p
- Last night I fed him with idlan’s spaghetti after he finished his puree. No chocking afterwards…kira pass la tuh :)
- His interests still remain on tissue, any kinds of paper, and rubber band. He can gets very mad if we snatch tissue/paper out of his mouth/hand.

things about going online....
Notice the rare post I made recently? Well the M.a.l.a.s mode is still there, spreading all over though at times I do feel like writing so many things and have it transpired onto my blog.
Anyway, despite the lazy mode striked in, I still occupy myself by actively monitoring the stocks movement, narrowed down to my favourite’s only. Few transactions exchanged already after 3 weeks indulging in this field, and I made $$$ profit so far. Not that much but kira okla for a beginner. Since I didn’t have any basic knowledge on stocks trading, what more to learn about the technical analysis and several analytical tools commonly used by stock investors, I just use my basic instinct+market news+ monitor the volume and highly active stocks, as guidance for stocks selection. The morning and day summary write-up by the experts would also help in making my decisions. I notice without proper knowledge you may have problem to determine at which level would be the best entry and exit point. That happened to me when I exit too early, instead of waiting for several few days to lock in higher profit (tapi dah dapat profit tu pon kira ok dah :p) Some retail traders fall into the ‘followers’ category, just follow the trend in guiding their decisions. To me this is ok so long as you have your own pre-determined target to shape your trading style, and so long as you don’t make losses, that’s pretty good enough.
In between baking and trading, no doubt I find trading is much fun+relax. You just need to have some guts,and be prepared for the worst (even small losses count tau hehe). And opps not to mention the accompanied risk awaiting once you’re IN the field. Buat kek kurang thrill (and suspense) nyer, but the best part is when you received complimentary smses from your customers saying thank you and all that. Main stocks ni doesn’t involve other person, you untung/loss sorang2,senyum sorang….suspense pon sorang2 jer :p
* i'm hungry and tired actually, and am counting time to break my fast...hence pls bear with the boring post. Know the Gardenia butterscotch bread? yep i had my sahur with 3-4 slices of butterscotch + plain water. If not because of the azan i may end up finishing half of the whole bread....sgt s.e.d.a.p!

Cuti-cuti Junjung
Last week kami tak ketinggalan bercuti-cutian spt org lain. Jumaat bertolak pulang ke kedah, selasa baru balik ke KL. Cuti kali ni agak lama sket, and mmg rasa puas sbb byk aktiviti. Sabtu kami ke perak utk kenduri cousin pruzz, cantik betul theme yg dipilih, dark brown. Bilik siap buat feature wall dgn wallpaper gitew. Idlan spt biasa bila jumpe cousin 2 sekawan tu (aiman & haikal) teramatlah hepi. Kemana-mana mesti bertiga…esok bila adik firas besar bley join sekaki hehe. Rumah tok mmg bingit and havoc dgn suara depa. Time naik keta apetah lagi..mulut memasing mmg tak diam. Ahad kami ke Kamdar di BM, shopping baju raya kekanak tuh dan baju mak ayah. Dekat sejam lebey spent time kat situ jek. Penat nak memilih kain bercampur penat nak kawal kekanak bertiga tuh. Punyerla pening rasanye dgn depa berlari-larian + menjerit-jerit dlm kamdar. Adik sporting abis, behave bukan main and hepi je bermain2 dgn kain and tag2 harga kat situ (tapi all the time berdukung dgn mama dlm carrier cam nak patah bahu!). Habis shopping di kamdar, kami proceed ke jusco seberang perai city…besar giler ala2 jusco bukit tinggi klang. Cun2 kedai dlm tuh, tenants pon byk..kiranyer lagi best dari jusco kat umah kami tuh. Sampai je situ terus mkn Mc D sbb memasing dah lapar tak igt even tho baru pukul 6++. Adik plak dah start cranky sbb penat last2 berjaya tidokan adik and mama pon dptla mkn dgn amannyer. Abis mkn terus balik…niat nk sambung shopping terpaksa dilupakan sbb sumer dah penat.
Senin, kami bermandi-mandian di Air terjun Ulu Paip dekat mana ntah mama dah lupa nama kawasan tuh hehe. Before that sempat singgah di petronas and belikan bebudak tuh baju transformers. Haikal paling hepi..punyer la lama tenung baju dia. Air terjun kat situ punyerla sejuk, tapi kekanak tu cam biasa had a blast fun sesama mereka. Firas pon had his first contact dgn air terjun ari tuh…memula takut tapi lelama dia ok…siap bf sambil baring dlm air gitew :p Petang abah ngan mama pi main ping pong kat umah mak su….mama baru pukul few times adik dah bising takmo duk lam stroller. So terpaksala mama lupakan niat nak bermain. Si idlan bermain ‘football’ dgn cousin2 abah…tapi budak bandar sorang ni tak reti nak rebut bola…takut terjatuh katanyer walhal kekanak lain tu sumer dah terguling-guling atas pasir. Aduhai anak mama takut benor jatuh atas pasir :p

- Lagi beberapa hari adik nak masuk 10 bulan.
- Gigi dah ade 3, satu gigi kapak, 2 lagi di bawah.
- Still been fed with finely blended puree. Rasanye dah boleh upgrade to a
more lumpy food, tapi ntahla…mama malas nak try. Again, kes malas!
- Suke sgt dgn finger foods dia a.k.a. biskut carrot/original/chicken
di mana abang pon slalu tumpang sekaki…sedap kots :p
- Develop chronic attachment dgn mama. Pantang nampak mama/dgr suara,
mesti nak terjah ke arah mama. Hmmm sama kes dgn idlan time kecik2 dulu.
Masalah besar sungguh!
- We notice he detest sweet foods a.k.a whatever type of fruits eg apple, pear,
manggo, etc. In fact he prefers plain porridge instead of those sweetie thingy….hmm pelik.
-Also detest baby foods sold over the counter including nestum. So kalau
pegi hotel terpaksalah mencari plain porridge jugak :p The good side about this,
dia suke masakan mama yg tak seberapa itewww above anything :)))
- Suke menjerit! High pitch plak tuh...adess kadang rasa bingit telinga ni hoho
-Si abang plak, sangat manja dan pandai layan si adik. Suke sgt acah2 adik…
and adik pon mmg syiok kena agah dgn abang.
- Slalu baca hadis2 yg mama sendiri tak hafal and taknah dengar….teruk betul mama.
Alhamdulillah hati dia mudah utk terima segala ajaran cikgu2 di sekolah. Syabas abang!
- Suke tgk citer hantu!
- Sangat sensitif, pantang kena marah sket…mesti merajuk dan harus dipujuk :p

M.A.L.A.S
Kenapa sejak dua menjak ni semacam malas nak mengupdate blog yer.
Bukan itu sahaja, malas bab2 lain sama. Malas nak pump, malas keje, malas baking, malas segala-galanya. Indahnye kalau dapat baring2 dan tido jer :P
……………..
………………
………………
Sebetulnyer saya tidak ada mood. Hari ni puasa ganti lagi. Pagi masih awal tapi angin sudah naik ke kepala. Aduhai besarnyer dugaan puasa ganti kali ni. Tekak kering, tapi proses mengepam still kena buat seperti biasa. Bertambah penat bila tgk hasil pump yg tak seberapa…sedih ok. Tolak hari ni, saya masih ade baki 20 hari lagi..mampukah diselesaikan sebelum tiba Ramadhan nanti? Kite tunggu dan lihat sajelah. Sebenarnyer saya rasa tak larat sesangat. 9 hari telah berjaya diganti, tapi penangan 9 hari tu cukup hebat. Saya migrain sepanjang hari dan muntah setiba nya di rumah without fail. Yer 9 hari yg sangat mencabar pada saya huhu.
Oh semalam kami ke pesta buku di Mines. Hasil tangkapan tak byk mana pon, penat berjalan je lebih sbb Firas refuse duduk dlm stroller, makanye terpaksala ku dukung je dia bergilir-gilir dgn hubby. Niat di hati nak cari buku ‘I love stocks’ tapi author tak igt…so confirm tak jumpela kan. Last skali cuma tangkap satu buku masakan keluaran Pa&Ma….buku masak lagik? Masaknyer idakla rajin sangat hehe.

it's chicken day!
Mood memasak macam tetiba membara bila belek2 majalah Annabel’s Karmel yg saye beli last few weeks. Original intention beli majalah tuh sbb nak kasik variety to Firas nyer home-made purees, tapi isi di dalamnyer sgtla tempting dan sesuai utk various occasion.
Maka last weekend saya try buat Fajitas Nachos, with slight amendment to her original recipe. Original recipe ade byk lagi bahan2 yg saya sendiri tak tahu ape kebendanyer…so ni saya attachkan modified recipe jelah ok.
Fajitas Nachos
Bahan2:
Nachos – saye beli yg BBQ flavour
Boneless chicken – sliced
Button mushroom – sliced
Onion – diced
Garlic - sliced
Capsicum – diced
Cheddar cheese
Cara2:
1. Sautee onion and garlic, add in chicken and cook till tender. Add in button mushroom and continue to cook.
2. Add in capsicum, stir for another 3-4 minutes.
3. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
4. Place an aluminium foil on your microwave dish, and arrange the nachos accordingly.
5. Sprinkle cheddar cheese all over, and bake until cheese is melted.
Note: I think the fajitas would taste better if use mozarella cheese instead of cheddar, barulah ala2 pizza hut gitewww. Those yg suke pedas, boleh add in chili sauce or black pepper since recipe yg ku kasik ni more suitable utk kekanak. Boley jugak add in diced carrots or any vege for a more balanced menu :p Ari tu kitorang mkn ni as breakfast bersama-sama roti+marjerin.
Lunch plak ku try recipe blackpepper chicken pie amik from Internet. Fillings dah cun, sedap menjilat jari tapi pastry dia pruzz komen agak memuakkan (pastry guna recipe karipap). Lagi sedap kalo pandai wat dough pastry yg lembut hancur2 tuhh. So nampak gaya next time recipe ni out from my list lah...maintain fillings jer makan dgn roti pon sodap!

Day 1
Saya dah slamat bertrading secara online :)
Baru buy, belum sell lagik.
Market closed a bit lower, dan saye rugi sket sbb beli pada harga yg sedikit tinggi daripada harga time closing. But to me it's ok...baru DAY 1.
Anyway, bukan senang nak bertrading secara serius. Sifu2 dlm forum byk memberi tips dan tunjuk ajar buat beginner spt saya nih. Bila baca diskusi mereka, aduh mulut mmg ternganga luas bila depa sebut all the technical analysis, jargons, and whatnots. Kiranyer mmg start from zero la nih. Tapi takper, nama pon blajar kan...so i go slow and steady. Copy paste info penting dlm words...google cari terms2 yg depa sebut sumer tuh. No doubt mmg pening...tapi dah nekad nak blajar kan :p Opps lagi satu, rerajinlah tgk market watch dlm thestaronline tuh...tgk chart, trending, baca research report, technical report, etc. Walaupon tak brape faham, cuba buat2 faham jela hehehe. Agak mencabar jugak, sbb takde cikgu yg mengajar di depan kelas, takde formal notes....agak2 dan syiok sendiri jela. Yang pasti, proses pembelajaran kali ni konfem lagik susah dari blajar MBA dulu ahaksss :p
wish me luck!

being a beginner
Believe it or not, when the men of the house all sound asleep in lalaland, i spent close to 3hr doing speed reading (or i'd say 'marathon') on the forum about stock market. And now at 2351 i already have a list of the so-called 'popular' and mostly hand-picked stocks, from various sectors, together with their price movement from the lowest to the highest.
First step done, that is to register online under my existing account - Jupiter Securities. And oh i'm so glad to learn that its online brokering fees are among the lowest...gud gud!
Second step, waiting for their activation code before i can proceed to login and get familiar with the online environment.
Third step, still pending, and the most important of all, is to go to TH and withdraw some money to be deposited into the trust account.
yepp am so excited! Can't wait to start trading online :)))

outing lagik?
Opss misi nak stay kat rumah tak berjaya ari ni. Actually dari kelmarin dah pasang 'niat' nak kluar today :p
Dlm pukul 12, kami kluar ke tesco kajang. Catch a quick lunch at TCRS, adik behaved well dlm high chair..so dpt la mkn dgn tenangnyer. Right after that terus menuju ke Nagoya, misi utama outing hari ini. Akhirnye jumpe jugak dgn kain idaman utk buat curtain idlan :) Thanx to kak as from toteboutique.blogspot.com sbb inform ku di mana nak cari kain2 cun yg digunakan utk tote bag beliau. And dlm masa 2jam++ kami spent di Nagoya, akhirnye decide utk beli kain polka dot grey black utk curtain idlan (actually sama fabric dgn tote bag yg ku order dari kak as so kiranyer bag mama sama color dgn curtain idlan hohoho).
polka dot grey black utk dimatchkan dgn 3 rona ungu bagi feature wall
RM9.80/mtr
Tangkapan kedua, beli kain baju melayu raya utk pruzz dan kekanak tuh. Color dark magenta, utk matching dgn kain bandung mama yg umi hadiahkan from Bandung. Dan tangkapan ketiga, beli kain curtain utk main hall kami yg taknah ditukar sejak berpindah masuk ke rumah 2 taun lepas :p. Kami pilih 2 kain berlainan utk dicantum, main body color creamish dan top color dark green. Kali ni pilih utk jahit ring style, selamat dihantar ke nagoya utk upah jahit (sekeping RM11 excluding rings).
Kiranyer sekarang hunting mission utk stuffs projek kid's room all completed, cuma pending bab implementation jer :p Tunggu abah free baru bley start dgn kerja2 mengecat dan sebagainyer.

carbonara anyone?
Macam tak caye jer, we managed to stay at home throughout the day yey!
Tu pun come evening, i started to feel itchy and suggested hubby to go out to catch something for dinner, but thanx hubby for stopping me since we still have the leftover pasta cooked in the afternoon.
As promised to k.nani, here goes the carbonara sauce recipe for you to try it out. Insya Allah sedap muehehehe. This time i use small shells for the pasta...the taste is good when blends together with the sauce :))
Pasta Carbonara
Ingredients:
onion
garlic
chicken
button mushroom
whipped cream (sekotak kecik tu jer)
cheddar cheese (i use Australia natural cheddar)
butter
flour
salt
oregano
The action:
1. Sautee garlic and onion with butter.
2. Add chicken, then put little bit of water.
3. Add mushroom. Then add the whipped cream (make sure you're on slow heat).
4. Add flour to thicken the sauce. Put more water.
5. Add salt, oregano, and last but not least cheddar cheese to give it the cheesy & creamy taste.
* The flour is used to thicken the sauce (same rules apply when u want to make mushroom soup). Today i use superfine flour since i'm running out of wheat flour...kira mahal sket la nih carbonara ku kali nih :p
Makes about 7-8 servings. Sangat puas dpt mkn byk kali hehehe. And this is one of idlan's all-time favourite (he ate 3 plates ok!). I used to cook this for him since he was 1yr+++.
and ohh earlier today i made pancakes (topped with chocolate sauce, blueberry and whipped cream) for brunch. Sangat menyelerakan specially with the fresh cream in place....tp x sempat nak snap pics lenkali ok :)

mother's day
On the mother's day, as planned and agreed we convened at my house in the afternoon. Umi told me not to prepare anything since my brother got lots of free KFC snack plate coupons, just redeem and have them take aways for our tea-time. Nonetheless i cooked the easiest dish, my all-time favourite spaghetti bolognese. Umi brought nasi goreng cina, some pulut+sweet coconut and sira keledek. So at the end, we're stuffed to the max with all the foods hehe. We also had vanilla buttercake+blueberry as the dessert :)
And oh, the men of the house got me these as the mother's day gift :) The two of them went out to send kak tie's cuppies and dropped by at jusco just to buy this. And tak sempat nak surprise idlan already spilled the secret by shouting from outside"mama mama ade hadiah!"
Anyway thank u yer sayang!!
Tiring yet it was one lovely evening spent with the whole family...alhamdulillah.

Buat seorang ibu....
The parcel has safely arrived at my mom's house this evening. She called me just now, sounds sad+terharu (i initially thought something not good is happening) and i can sense she was talking with teary eyes.
I'm glad she's happy with the gift. I'm the only daughter in the family, and she said i'm the only one yg always give her something (well i know my bro is not the type yg show his love by giving gifts). I just told her, sekali sekala surprise bukannyer every month...lagipon sementara hayat masih ada.
Happy Mother's Day Umi!
I can never thank you enough for being the best-est mom in this world.
For all the loves you showered to us, for all the sacrifices made in bringing us up,
and for made us a person we are today. Your love is incomparable to anything, and there's no best word or act can describe how much you're meant to me.
Semoga Umi sentiasa dilindungiNya selalu, semoga rahmat sentiasa berpihak kepadamu. Dan hanya Allah jua yang dpt membalas segala jasa dan pergorbananmu selama ini.
I luv you always, now and forever.
Kepada Mak, dan ibu2 dan mommy2 lain di luar sana, Happy Mother's Day to us. May we become the best-est mother to our kids and family. We may not be super great in everything, but we can always become supermom in our very own way :)
Have a good weekend ahead peeps!

income tax
I received a love letter from L*DN yesterday asking me to pay nearly RM1.5k for income tax 2007. I was like what the he*l is this? They’re the one who supposed to refund me and yet now they’re asking for my decent money. Hello it’s not that my gaji is 10k per month ok! Not wanting to waste any minute I quickly look up for my personal file, took out all the slips and evidences, and cross-refer with my printed BE form. And yes I confidently think they were wrong. To add further to my frustration the calculation didn’t show any waiver that I’m entitled to, i.e. individual claim RM8k, insurance, kids RM1k, kwsp, and whatnots. The only thing that was being minus from the calculation is my zakat and dividend. Haha what a silly and blatant mistake! While baking and deco kak nor’s cuppies, my mind is working with all sort of sentences and wordings that I’m gonna use to defend myself tomorrow.
So today first thing in the morning I stormed into their office, konon nak jadi garang but later terus melt bila akak counter tu tersgtla baik hahaha hampes plak rasa. She showed me her screen, all the calculation sheets, etc…and finally that sweet lady said “awak takyah bayar pepe dik. Kami yg kena refund sebyk ni $$$”. Haaa zaaaassss ku dah agak dah. Then I said, habis tu kenape hantar surat camni kat org…very confusing la kak. Dahla amount byk bukan main..kalo seratus dua takper jugak. Dia pon ckp…a’aa mmg ramai dah complaint…ramai yg confuse, tapi awak ignore jelah surat tuh.
See, sometimes ignorance is a bless isnt it?
Before I left, I asked her about my refund.
“Bila bley dpt kak? Dia pon kata…dalam sebulan dua dptla…byk prosesnyer.
Aku reply balik…ye ke sebulan dua….ramai je yg bertahun2 tak dpt.
Then dia pon quickly reply…
Ok takper, akak tulis nota pada bhgn pungutan utk minta diorang refund…awak tunggu la nanti yer.
And then I left, smiling ear to ear. Harap2 dah jumpa face to face ni cepatla dapat akakakakka :p
Pengajaran: sila abaikan jika anda terima Borang J dari pihak yg dinyatakan di atas. Amount tertulis most likely is not accurate :p
Opps lunch tadi saya beli buku Annabel Karmel Family Cookbook dari mynews kat bawah ni. RM29.90 dan resit saya simpan! hahaha

030509 @ Melaka
Melaka, as usual never fails to excite us…a very short getaway yet truly satisfying!
Kicked off the day with a visit to Zoo Melaka, the last time we were there was back in 2007, I was carrying Firas that time :) We decided to tour the area by taking a tram, konon takut penat + cuaca panas. But later after half of journey we board off the tram…haaa baru puas berjalan hehe. Managed to catch the elephants show around 12noon (while people were hovering towards the elephant I slowly got out of the crowd to feed firas under the trees :p). Had a quick lunch at McD drive thru, and off we went to Mahkota hotel just in time for check in.
After lepaking and having a short nap we went down to the kids pool. Abah had ‘fun’ watching and safeguarding idlan mandi-manda. Later we let idlan to play ‘mini’ golf before heading back to our room for Maghrib prayer. Our initial plan to have dinner @ ikan bakar was cancelled, considering tpt tu panas + not comfy for the kids. So we settled down at Kenny Rogers @ MP instead. That’s the end of day 1.
Day 2 after buffet breakfast, idlan lepas gian at pool once again while adik dozed off in lalaland. At 11ish we checked out and jln2 at Dataran Pahlawan. Such a big shopping complex with lots of high-end outlets. Got a t-shirt and a pair of shoes for adik, and a ben 10 sticker book for idlan at the Brands Outlet. And after lunch we head off back to KL. That’s the end of abah’s besday celebration. Bila tanye abah hepi tak? Dia kata asal bebudak tu hepi…okla!

Abah turns 29!
Actually not today, but tomorrow insya Allah (3rd May). But since we'll be going for a one day getaway @ Melaka tomorrow, we had the pre-celebration i.e. cake-cutting in advance. Thought of cutting it today, but idlan just couldn't stop asking when can 'he' cuts the cake. Before any of the berries go missing, i'd better snap the pics quickly :p
To B, Happy Birthday to you! Thank you for being at my side, during my ups and downs, throughout our nearly 6 yrs of marriage. I'll always pray for your success, here and thereafter. May Allah bless you with good health and life all yr round. We all luv you beribu-ribu lemon muahsss!!!
