No title for this post!
Each time when I was into something...mesti ada interuption. Huhuhu! my Sewing Machine masuk workshop.. gear patah *according to the SINGER technician*!! I just started to sew my cushion then, it happened. Well, there went my project.
Tuesday, Hb wanted to accompany me and Fifa to Midvalley, to buy our ladies undergarments.... *Fifa's on a semester break for one an half month* And being the only girl, Papa was always so generous. So, we had our lunch at Chili's. Then, to Metro looking for our....*under*.. while Hb waited at ground floor. I had not been to Metro, for quite sometime. I went crazy to see the household stuff. Can't helped myself, bought one Turrine bowl and a platter..cheap! And, like always, I was rushing before Hb get restless.
Wednesday, spent time with Sis Intan at the Curve and had our breakfast in Ikea. Then rushed to fetch Hb *Pantai* three hours later.
It was four long days my Sewing Machine at the workshop, until this morning the technician called wanting me to collect. My God! it's too expensive rm 210...don't you think so? I was speechless, but at the same time keen to continue what I had left on Monday...my Cushions.
I started sewing impatiently, and mistakes? Oh! that can't be helped...unpicked here and there. And... I managed to sow three Cushions today...hmm, will continue tomorrow, insyallah.
Pictures? I was too absorbed with my work.... but no, no, it's too messy with fabrics, pins, tassle and etc...everywhere. Of course, I want to share it with you guys. Tunggu...
Oh, by the way, if not because of my Sister who inspired me of the Cushion's idea, I would not be doing it. Thank you Sis Teh, now, I have new Cushions for RAYA...


Here are some pictures at Chili's Midvalley.

When I'm Bored...Cuttoo Day

When I'm bored.....I would baked, sew, or do gardening. I am not the kind of person who would sit still *goyang kaki*... I am the kind who like to be on my feet *angkat bakul sendiri* but honestly... yours truly is that kind....
Those days, long before Hb was sicked.. I would be busy a month before Ramadhan, sewing my only princess's dresses with smockings and bullions...two to three pairs *macam tak pecaya, you* and sew cushions for the house and what not. Came Ramadhan, I entertained my children and beloved Hb by cooking their favorite food. And not to mention the cookies that I loved to make for us, my Mum and my in Laws that was a week or so before Raya.. Getting prepared to Balik Kampong was another thing, to pack for five and can you imagine, beg sampai buncit..yes, semua nya baru, from top to toe. Two days before the journey, I had packed everything and the bag had been parked outside my room, at the family area. I remembered that one night, I dreamed that theft had broke in and took my bag away, hehe.. You can tell, how busy I was at that time, stressed, tension, and full of excitement...
*Sigh* I am missing all that. I don't have to rush for balik kampong or making lots of cookies...of course I will bake, insyallah. Everyone in the family understands.....
Tho, Hb is recuperating, I don't think is a good idea to travel back North in a jam. Tatkala ku terkenang, sedih di hati yang teramat sangat.. Whatever it is, what we do, enjoy to the fullest, as time will not wait for us. And cannot turn back the clock. But now, I really cherish the past!

And back to the present... I have all the time in the world, with Hb and the Kids. I want to enjoy what I had missed with Hb. I want to go slightly slow *if I can* with daily routine, as I have nothing to rush for, hmm..

As I said, when I am bored...I will sew..... in fact already started to cut a few pieces of materials to make cushions. I had not touched any of those materials that I kept for four long years. And guessed what.. I wore a mask, to protect myself from the dust. My sinus is bad.

Anyway, peeps wait for my new project... and now, lets enjoy some pictures I took at Cuttoo get together last Friday.

No Time...No Mood...

I was in no time and mood to blog.... also finding words to write was totally difficult. Everyday, is another day. There were stories to tell...but I could not find time and words to write. The more I tried the more I rambled. Tho my mind was on the laptop, but my hands were busy spinning the thread , heehee, still chrocheting...

Still, a few more rows to finish.

But... had to go slow this time. A few days back, I had a splitting headache, ya..non stop chrocheting..till I had to rest, to save my Fast *puasa* that day. The throbbing was bad... during break fast, I could not eat and dozed off. Serik! ... Lesson learnt...not to overdo things. One thing for sure....age is catching up!
Today, still fasting, but I promised myself not to touch the thread,... my hands wanted so much...*addicted*

I was so full of life today, cleaning my room, attended to my plants, out with Hb, *tho fasting* and managed to cooked Nasi Ayam and baked Black Pitted Cherry Cake. Guessed, I have to move a lot instead of sitting many hours concentrating on one thing.
So, here goes my menus.

Oven baked Chicken

Black pitted Cherry Cake

Yeah! I had completed my Ganti Puasa...Tomorrow I shall have good lunch with Hb, insyallah!
Adios!! See Yea..

Break Fast Menu

Quenching Thirst on a Hot day!

My stomach hurts and it's making me uncomfortable. It hurts from yesterday night. Dah lah sakit, Puasa pulak tu. I still have 2 more days to go. And Ramadhan is just around the corner. Ya, ya I had been telling myself every year, nak ganti puasa awal2 bila habis Syawal...hmm, tak pernah pun! My girl Fifa, pun sama kelam kabut ganti puasa. And as you know, I was tied up with my Crochet still.... geram sungguh! I kept on skipping a few rows, kira, repeat and repeat. Actually, I should relaxed and do it slowly, but NO I want it done quickly....stressed! And because of that I had missed taking pictures of what I had cooked and eat out. Last Monday....when my sis Teh was here I totally forgot about snapping pictures. We had lunch at One Utama and browsed around a few shops. I felt wonderful, having to go out with Hb and Sis and her Hb.

And for today's Break fast Menu, I had boiled some cooling dried fruits for my throat *red dates, lotus seed, longans, barley basil seeds and winter melon. And I cooked Gado Gado, Bamboo shoots masak chili, fried ikan jenahak, and chickpea masala.

The vegetables that's available in my fridge.

With the peanut sauce or Kuah Pecal.

This drink is loved by my family, especially my Syafiq.
He can drink Three glasses in one go,
It remind me of my dad, he loves it too!
I remembered, every Ramadhan my Mum
will definitely prepared this wonderful drink.

Burp! what a meal!

Jelly, yesterday's left over from our Break fast.

Adios! See you soon, insyallah.....

Crochet and Menus...

Hello! It's been sometime... I was occupied. Remember I mentioned about Craft work. Yes, I got the Crochet books from my Sister Teh, last weekend. And had been crocheting ever since... Strained my eyes, my neck and the whole body was aching. Mana taknya, I only stop if I had to. Initially, it was quite complicated and I did lots of mistakes but as I went along after a few rows, I got the hang of it. And I managed to do 2 doilies in one week.
Ouch! Watch out, you guys!! My kids *25yrs and 20yrs old* were jumping and poking each other on my bed next to me while I was posting this entry... Anyway, love to see them this way rather than they be in their room the whole time. They've all grown up!! I, sometimes missed the noise that we used to have...The only sound that is loud and noisy was the TV, and it never stop from morning till night *hubby's favorite, not past time, but all the time*
Now, let's look at my Crochet.

What a relief!! But... worth the effort!
And planning to do more doily.

The first doily, the tension was bad.

Meanwhile........
Just to share what we had for dinner tonight, Quiche and salad. And more pictures of food during the week.
