Goodbye 2010! Welcome 2011!

"Happy New Year 2011!"
2010 has come to it's end. Everyone, I'm sure had gone through good and bad memories along the year. But that had passed and hopefully the coming years bring us better things in life insyallah! The painful incident that happened to our family had taught us to be somehow appreciative of every minutes and seconds that we shared as a family.
And lots of lesson learned what life was all about. Though, we were tested, but ought to be thankful to the Almighty Allah Subhanawataala, yang masih menyayangi kami, dan yang telah memberikan kekuatan untuk meneruskan perjalanan hidup harian. And only He, yang maha mengetahui setakat mana kesabaran yang boleh kami tanggungi and the strength to carry on. Semoga hari hari yang akan datang di berkati dengan amalan dan kebajikan.

May the New Year 2011 brings us good life, good health, joy, prosperity and most of all Iman!

To all bloggers out there, I'm wishing you 'Happy New Year and May God bless us always!'

Sakit lagi!!

Hello there! I baru recovered from an upset tummy and irritable bowel. More than a week. And was on soft diet..agak lama makan macam baby. I had to sacrifice my favourite food. Huk! huk,huk! No coffee, no sugar, no oily stuff and no chillies until the diarrhea stopped completely.
After a few days, I gradually started eating back the normal food. While I was downed sicked, my son Syazwan pulak had a fall during watching football at Bukit Jalil. He sprained his leg...bengkak gila! Tengok tu, ada tiga orang sakit dalam rumah. So Fifa had to do not only the housework but became a driver as well,...kesian!

Today, as usual fetched hubby and he wanted to have lunch at Dave's Deli in One Utama, Alamak! dah lama menahan, boleh makan dah kut..after all, perut dah tak sakit. Bismillah hirrahman nirohim...semoga makanan tu jadi penawar, and wallup!
Look at what we had. Sedap gila! honestly, especially the gravy. Do try.

Cerita tak habis lagi...
Fifa and me were already at One Utama before fetching hubby back from physio. Since lots of shops were having sale, got a few blouses for Fifa. Then, we walked passed Cold Storage and saw a few people gathered outside the supermarket. We stopped, trying to be *kepo* There will be a sale of about 50% on all the items *Leftovers Christmas* Things like chocolates, hampers and cakes. But the thing was, it only start at late afternoon. Dan yang paling best, you could put aside your picks and claim later...dahsyat kan. So, I did. And fortunately, when hubby wanted to have lunch there,, oh! senang lah ambik and bayar terus. I macam mengila, merebut rebut, belum lagi kalau kat Boxing Day!
Lihat lah barangan nya.

Everything was from Australia.

Three boxes of this cake.

And also three boxes of this. Kalau teringin, sila lah kerumah!!

Ala, sayang yang ini, ada Cognag dalam ingredient,
so had to give away.

Missing...

Flower from my garden.

Another family of Datura 'The shooting star' I called it.

I just looked through my sister and niece's blogs. Seronoknya mereka berkumpul, Alangkah gembira dapat bersama sob.. Yes, it's been a looong time rasanya, I miss the get together with my family especially at my parents house. The riuh rendah that sounded so clearly in my ears right now, the teasing and the scarstic words were normal to us ,he,he...but we do forgive each other, right? They just celebrated a b'day party. Wow! merahnya, That's the theme colour for the day! And the varieties of my mum's cooking, looked so inviting! Slurpp! Hmm, dapat tengok gambar pun jadi lah.

Anyway, nothing interesting to tell only a few pictures taken during our daily routine. Layari lah gambar2 ini.

Sedang memasak diluar *another cooking area*
tak suka masak kat luar, panas, but when the weather is good
it's the best view you could get to see, my herbs.

The ingredients

Dah siap!
Prawn's filling and tuna.

This is how you eat it!!

Chicken chop, lupa siram sos.

My assistant Chef busy with her dessert.

Look at that! Yummy.

'Indepence is the result of Necessity'

I was in no mood for outing! But.. hubby was in that mood. Gosh!!
Sesudah bersiap2, tiba2 tyre kereta Myv pulak puntured. Nak bawak ke mekenik pun satu hal, nak bangunkan the boys lagi satu hal. Ingat nak keluar awal so that we can come back before lunch.
So, with no time wasted or maybe *taking the chalenge* Fifa tried in every way to change the tyre. *pandai anak Ma!* Anyway, hubby was always watching from a distance...

Terer, la pompuan ni..


Kudos!! Job well done! And credit to her..

Then. . . . . . .. . .

.... A Special Treat for her *Sirloin Steak Black Pepper with
Broccoli andFries* in T.G.I. Subang Parade.

A coincidence meeting with Hubby's sis Aline at T.G.I

Hubby asked for 'Beef Fajitas with tortillas'

My order *Double Quesdillas with herbs rice.

Sungai Buloh and Cutoo

Last week was a very lazy week. The days went slow..maybe down with the weather (lagi2 blame on the weather) Hubby too, feeling awfully downed with low spirit that needed to be charged, but how?? Eight months is a long time..but we ought to be thankful for every improvement he'd made...from wheel chair to walker.. And now he can walked steadily, except for his fingers. But compared to the last time, there are improvement, tho slow. Syukur kepada Illahi tiap2 pergerakan sungguh berharga not only for him but for us too.

My sister Teh and hubby spent a night at my place on last Sunday. We decided not to cook but to buy food instead. So that, we had more time together *chatting* tidor dekat pukul 12 lebih malam you! termasuk Syazwan, he, he.
Next morning, it was an impromtu plan, we were off to Sungai Buluh. Hubby?? Oh ya, Abang Din*sis hubby* and Syafiq were with him. Tak banyak membeli cuma satu dua je! We just love to be there, sedap mata memandang and also a good place to release your stress!

My sister sedang sibuk memilih bunga. Looks like we're in Cameron.

Gemuknya saya!

I bought orchid, African violet, rose, balm tree, fertilizer and 6 packet
of black soil (still in the car boot)

Cutoo Get together

We had it in Seoul Garden at One Utama. It was a buffet, serving barbeque and steam boat. There were varieties of food like seafood, meat, chicken and vegetables all you can eat. And for those with sweet tooth, there were soft jellies, ice cream, ice kacang and free flow drinks. It was something different as you can enjoy both the barbeque and steam boat at the same time.

Slow down, Mala!

Well, the time is rather late now. Wait for my next entry..goodnight and sweet dreams!

Lousy Mood!

Was not in the mood of everything!! I was downed with sore throat, mouth ulcers and runny nose. Serba serbi malas, rasa nak baring the whole day, the internet pulak downed for several days. Hhik,boring! semuanya downed with the weather agaknya. Mood memang swing gila2. We had been buying food lately! Nasib baik, kalau tak.... Macam2 kedai dah makan, sampai dah jemu. My weight pun naik, asyik2 lunch makan nasi. Sometimes, guilty pulak, hubby had to take outside food which we know it's unhealthy for him and neither for us too. But for dinner, I tried to cook something simple.
Oh! by the way 9th Dec, was my Syafiq's b'day! We did not celebrate but I cooked him his favourite *Lasagna* and bought him a present, Perfume *DKNY*
Nothing much to tell, so let's see what I had snapped for this week.

Lasagna and Cut Salmon with salad.

Yummy!

This was Hubby's plate.*terbalik pulak*, I made him mushroom pasta and few slices of Salmon
with Avacado salad. He had been having lots of meat lately, so tak boleh makan banyak *Lasagna*

Ida and Alya.

My niece Ida and family came unexpectedly last week and had Sandwiches with us for dinner.

Sorry ya! Acik prepared Sandwiches aje! Itu yand termampu...sob!

Ida's hubby, Nizam and Syafiq.

Look at the sandwiches served yang tak sepertinya. I was really really tired, baru lepas cuci 2 refrigerators. But my guest kata *sedap* Its beef sandwiches, by the way *daging korban*

Lunch with an 'Unexpected' Treat!

This week we changed our appointment with the chinese sensei from Monday to Wednesday. So today, we were quite early and the second patient arrived, so massaged over around 11.20 a.m. Normally after physio or Chinese sensei, we had lunch outside. Since we had no other plans and very near to K.L, we decided to have lunch in Pavillion. First I thought, biar betul! but why not?? For his sensation, of cousrse I insisted that he wear his sweater. At Pavillion, we had our lunch at the'Food Republic' corner. Hubby had char Kway tiau and me..what else 'Seafood Curry Mee' and ais kacang.
We enjoyed the food, sambil ternganga2 tengok gelagat manusia...macam2 pesen. Then later, we took the elevator up, to watch clearly the beautiful decoration that they prepared for Christmas. Memang cantik, the rich Christmas color, gold, green and red, that made it so grand. Only when I realized that today is Pre sale day..for handbags and shoes. Macam tau2 aje. Honestly, did not plan pun..just coincident! Dengan Iman yang teguh ku masuk kedai tu. Argh! No!! I was taken aback by one particular pair and the cheapest around. Kena banyak lagi berzikir ni,... lalu terbabit lah dengan sepasang kasut. I kept telling hubby *with feelings of guilt* I need one, dah lama tak beli.. Macam lah dia tak faham isterinya, he didn't mind, I know. *Shoes are my wickness* I have a weak spot on them in my heart!
Should I feel guilty? Patut!!! BUT, Kasut are a must apa! Without kasut, nanti berkaki ayam pulak, he, he, he..

When we reached home, it was quite late, due to terrible jammed. My dear Fifa sedang melipat baju, *very considerate daughter* she must be thinking I was tied up at the sensei and she, took the trouble to lipat baju before going to Class, but seeing me holding the shoe bag, she gave an unfriendly looked, then off to College. Sorry la girl... I got carried away!
Well firstly, I want to share my 'weak spot'

Shoes, are my passion!!
