Rajin pulak kak jah update pasal makanan dua tiga hari ni yerk.. Hahaha

Cast iron err pots?

I have always wonder what is the difference between cast iron, ceramic pan, non stick pan, tempat masak color coklat tu (suddenly i dont know the name haha) [update: vision] etc etc.. But i bought each of them anyway and masak ikot suka hati.. i thought cast iron ones kita guna bila nak bake something, non stick untuk goreng telur or anything yg senang melekat, ceramic untuk sayur, vision untuk sup etc etc.. Lame i know but i really dont know weyyy.. 

     *kari ayam pakai cast iron

                *hasilnya

A friend of mine, soon to be a full time doemstic goddess told me that the makanan is supposed to be tastier and healthier as it preserves all th nutrients (and bau i must say). Maybe she is right, el kapitan usually is not fond of curry tapi kali ni bertambah makan (u may recall yg elkapitan is really hard to puji makanan sedap haha)..

Tadi i tried to cook masak lemak cili api udang in the cast iron pot but it doesnt taste as good, sukatan yang sama mcm I usually masak but the kuah gets too thick. (Remind me to insert the picture later). 

[Update: here is the pic]

Probably will stick to vision pot for masak lemak after this.

Toodles!

Chilli crab kata ko

Tried to cook chilli crab the other night, i have to tell u just concentrate with googling one recipe!! Hahaha i must google like 5 recipes and i got confused  because some say put oyster sauce, some curry leaves, some birds eye chillies.. And i ended up using everything ahahahah.. Eventhough the color looks so so only but el kapitan said it is nice that I deserved a kiss kahkahakah.. Mind u el kapitan ni susah sket bab makanan ni kalau tak kene selera mmg la slow je makan tapi kali ni tambah, siap bagi nasi sket tak cukup katanya!! 

What did i put in it? Cili kering (blend), curry powder, curry leaves, onion, garlic, kicap manis, oyster sauce, tomato sauce. Nampak tak banyak nyer? Mcmana tak sedap? Hahahah.. Anyways will definitely buat lagi but less cili kering because it is so spicy sampai el kapitan's lips turned red! 

     *** close up katanyaaa 

Sayur asem

Have u tried this dish? I love it but so far takde lagi restaurant yg kitorang pegi masak sama mcm mkn kat indonesia. It is actually cabbage, beans and corns (and most probably reddish) boiled in asam (not sure either asam keping or asam jawa). I must warn you that it is an acquired taste. You will either like it or you will absolutely hate it. Haha! Do let me know if you know THE place to get it within klang valley please! 

Buah susu

We went to legoland (stories about that later) and mcm biasa mesti singgah hentian pagoh (on our way back) to get our fruits supply. Missy 3 loves jambu air so much, and we also bought limau bali, all kind of kerepek including belinjau (my fav) and buah susu. U know which one? It is actually buah markisa or passion fruit.

Gila masam buah ni but i put it in orange juice/mango juice and it tasted so heavenly! Ok more stories laterrrrrr peeps!

Ikan bakar

Wowww malasnya makcik update blog skarang ye.. Lol.. Well to tell u the truth i hardly have got any time kalau el-kapitan balik... Whats new? We brought the kids (and maid) to legoland.. Will blog about it later..

Sementara tu terima lah gambar ikan sumbat bakar dlm oven untuk tatapan hahahha

    Eh terbalik pulak bukaknya the daun kunyit sepatutnya dkt bawah

El kapitan suka gilaaaaa

Ok babai!

Have you ever

Have you ever feel so tired in your life? You just feel like crying and sleeping the whole day? You feel so frustrated with the people around you. You just want some peace and quiet but you know at the end of the day it is impossible. Well maybe it is the hormonal change (your 'friend' is coming in few days) or you didnt get what you want the previous day. 

The only solutions to it is to do your favourite activities or eat the food that you like. Lets face it you cant escape life!

For me the little things like eating my favourite cereal all in one bowl helps! I love to fruit loops, apple jack and corn pops so much, better still to mix all 3 cereals in a bowl! Luckliy i found this kellogs fun pack, i dont have to buy the whole big box (like 3 boxes) and then waste it. Has it happen to you? When you go to the supermarket you really want to eat the wheat a bix, bought the whole package ended up u only eat two! And by the end of the month you have alreay forgotten about it and when the spring clean time came it will all go to the trash.. 

Oh well, i missed the point to this article again. And this is not a paid advertisement haha

Masak masak

El-kapitan is home now so jom la main masak-masak. Kene ada satu lauk pedas and satu sup sayur with fishball for missy 3.. Since we were back quite late yesterday (doing all the shopping) ini jela yang mampu di masak...

Ikan sambal and cauliflower, carrot and fishball soup. It is my first time buat cauliflower soup, learnt from a friend. Sedapppp.. Will definitely buat again..

Till then.. Korang masak apa? Kehkehkeh

Bersiaran kembali

Wahhh lamanya tak update.. Sorry la i am a bit busy bila el-kapitan balik walau sekejap mana pun.. Balik je the first thing we did was buying a new child car seat for missy 3. She has grown out of her current maxi cosi opal albeit they said it can be used until 4yo. Still nampak baru so baby N can use it since dia pin dah grow out of her fabio. Went to momours empire and we get maxi cosi rodifix yang supposedly blh pakai until 12 yo. Penuh wei kereta, told el kapitan if u want another one u better get me an alphard hahaha..

Besides the safety issue since either i have to seat at the back with the girls or dua2 duduk depan with me, we really have to get them to seat at their own seat becauseee...

The art of..?

Ever since the school started, the mommies have been mastering the art of hiding and vanishing into thin air... Haha.. Understand what i mean? We were given the timetables but we hardly bring it with us. So we ended up arriving too early at the school, either when the kids are at the playground or at the library. And of course we have to hide! Missy 3 (and few other kids) will cry their heart out if they see us. Hahahah..

So this is me hiding behind a fortune telling machine, and if u can see at the left up corner of the picture there are few more mommies (i think 3 of them) hiding because our children is at the playground! (the one with white fences).. btw library is across the playground (where the glass windows are)..

Things that we do for our kids.. *smiley face*

Routine

Ever since i leave my job my routine is pretty much centered around the kids (when el kapitan is not around that is).

Morning after subuh i will have my shower first, then around 7.15 i will start to turn on the volume on disney channel to pre-amp missy 3 that it is time to wake up for school! At 7.30 i will wake her up and give her a quick shower (and mind u always always akan ada drama), and straight to her school at around 8am. Depending on the traffic, we will reach JGc at 8.30ish drop her at school and i will stay there having breakfast with other mummies until around 10.30ish before picking her up back from school. Sometimes if i need my time alone i'll just lepak at starbucks. (That is one if the perks having a school inside a mall huh). 

Some of the mummies took gym classes, which i am keen to do also. 

Will arrive home at around 12pm after a pit stop at mcdonald or wondermilk for spaghetti or ayam penyet for missy 3's lunch. Then its time to pump breastmilk for baby N (the milk will be used when i leave her with my maid running errands or sending missy 3 to school),susukan dia, and nap time for missy 3.

After that I will go and run few errands. There is always bills to pay, groceries to buy, laundry to pick up and people to meet.. At around 4-5pm i'll be at home in time to cook our dinner, give missy 3 a bath (after coming back from grandpa's house), then suapkan her dinner (usually my maid will handle baby N) then it is already mahgrib. Solat and alif ba ta class for missy 3 (its her dad's duty but when he is not around i took over the role).

After that its time to play with baby N and missy 3, checking her arts from class, tampal, mummy turns to have dinner and by 10.00pm it is bedtime stories for both.around 11pm its lights off for us. 

This is when i will siapkan her dress for school next day, her school bag, quick read (magazine etc for me), watch a bit of tv until I doze off.

Routine berulang setiap hari monday to friday. Siapa cakap duduk rumah with maid goyang kaki? Kerja still banyak cuma the priorities are different but the satisfaction is there. Alhamdulillah..

Dont go broke

Buy now everybody has seen this tweet be it from twitter, fb or instag. Tun M has his point. You shouldnt buy things that is "diluar kemampuan". 'Ukur baju di badan sendiri' kata org jawa.

Some of the people use the tweet to hentam kawan2 yang pakai handbag above rm500. For me it is simple, i can afford it, so i bought it. I cant afford it, but my friend can, i feel happy for her and tanamkan azam untuk lebih berusaha. Itu namanya persaingan sihat yang very hard to find amongst us. But pls dont go broke semata mata nak setanding dgn org.

So the only way that we can do is to bring the person down so that she feel bad wearing a 6k bag that we cannot afford. I have few friends like this but what i do is ignoring them. I like to be friend with the positive people so that their positive vibes melekat to me. That is why my close circle is sangat sedikit and I am ok with it. 

Just fyi, the handbags ada resell value. Evidently one of my bag dah ada org menunggu dgn harga lebih dari masa i beli dulu (lv kan dah naik harga 4 kali). So, i dont see any kerugian on my part. Pedulikan apa org kata ok?

Just my two cents. Toodles!

Handi-snack

Everyday missy 3 will bring snacks to school. Sometimes we give her bread with jam, bread and sausage, nugget, oreos, coco crunch etc but her fav is biscuits with cheese dip. Tried lots of brand but she prefers this ones:

The only place that sell this so far (that i knew off) is jason's bsc. But they dont have the oreo and mister salty pretzel. If you guys have seen this anywhere in klang valley area please please please let me know..

Mak mak sgt ek post ni haha
