Super broom day!!!

Start the day with loadssss...of works. After full of tense and heavy emotion (feel like kicking and punching somebody:), I managed to settle everything at 4pm...Feeling so dizzy, backache and uncomfortable.

Need to think of some cool activities tonight to release the bad feelings inside me...Fortunately tomorrow I won't be at the office...Alhamdulillah:))

A lesson to learn...

On February mom got chikungunya. Chikungunya is a disease caused by aedes mosquitoes. This disease will become worst for older people in which it will attack the joints and the patient couldn't walk nor stand...As far as I'm concerned this is not yet a deadly disease in Malaysia.

Back to the story, mom couldn't stand nor walk due to the joints ache. My dad needs to assist her to the toilet etc.and she had to sit on the chair to perform her prayer (pity her). I was introduced to this sengsei medicine (chinese herbs) which could cured the joints ache and most effectively works on chikungunya patient. I'll check the medicine for its registration number with kementerian kesihatan Malaysia, plus it is sengsei so..I shouldn't worry of its ingredients as it surely made from herbs (that was what I thought...).So I gave mom a try, and Alhamdulillah with Allah's willing it worked...

Mom called me and told on how effectively the medicine worked on her, she couldn't hardly felt the ache plus she felt so healthy. I felt so relief at that time...she suggested the medicine to my dad as well, and both of them were using it til now...

Lately, mom told me that she has a big appetite for foods (it's weird for her actually) and she gained more than 5kg per month. All her baju kurung can't fit her and I told her to care for her foods since she got darah tinggi. Same goes to dad...

Yesterday mom called and mentioned that, she felt so weak that she couldn't walk fast nor for a long distance as she will become semput. Her heart also beating fast...Even walking for a short distance she'll semput and tired.So, she went to the pharmacy to check her blood pressure. However, the blood pressure was normal so she asked the pharmacist what could have been the reason, and he told her that she might taken some medicine. So, mom told her bout the medicine she took for her joint ache and the pharmacist mentioned that, the medicine was not registered with KKM. He explained, that the medicine was not actually chinese herbs and it will lead to kidney malfunction, and my mom's big appetite was due to the medicine as well. He asked mom to check the medicine with KKM and I'll checked it online. To my surprised the medicine was not registered with KKM. Previously, I was just read the registered number at the bottle and believed what I saw..:(((

So, the lessons to learn here are:

1. Always look for the registration number at the bottle, and checked before you buy it>>>http://202.144.202.76/bpfk/product_search.cfm.This is the official website of KKM.
   
2. Never trust any sengsei/herbs whatsoever as we don't actually knew the real ingredients used to make the medicine.Please be extra cautious...
3. Always seek for the qualified Doc advise before presume any supplement/herbs.
4. The best way is turn to our Sunnah Food, and maintain our food intake...

That was the invaluable lesson for me to learn.

Shop til broke...:)

We went to Kuantan, for some shopping, mine especially (apalagi baru gaji kan:) We went to Megamall. First store to go of course la Popular bookstore (a must for Aiman and Alisa). Normally, I'll spent almost hundred gak at the store, but not today since I've got bigger plans...muahahahaa.

Then we moved to Parkson for my beauty product, and there when my money started to broke little by little ..waaaaaaaaaa :((( To my surprised the price of the items had increased and I've no choice but to buy it. I've asked the salesgirl,

"Could you give me the paper bag?" (I like to collect the paper bag:))

and the salesgirl told me

"Our company has no longer produce paper bags!!"

Haiyaaa... even they are cutting down all the costs...

After that, we went to East coast Mall for lunch and window shopping...Went to parkson (called it a window shopping, but actually it was a real shopping though:)). Stopped at the corelle and vision section as my eyes caught at the latest design, and Alisa urged me..

"Mama dah ada ni, tak yah beli"

I don't have any intention to buy it, but who knows...things could always change for a shopaholic like me muahahaha....

Smile!!!...waiting for lunch to be served. Abah gave the fierce look konon...:))



Alisa gave a 'toye' look (baru bangun tidur).Still in the 'mamai' state

Alisa with her poses:)))) while waiting for Aiman

Last place was Alamoda,shopping foy my baju raya (so early uhhh:))).In fact this is my main agenda today... A normal ritual for a shopaholic like me was 'berazam' just to buy ala kadar...however it turned out to be a really broke place for me.I've spent almost 500 ringgit without I noticing it... waaaaaaaaa:((( If not because of the salesgirl persuaded me to buy another kain...

"Akak, disebabkan akak membeli lebih dari 2 ratus ringgit, kita ada special ofer untuk akak. Akak beli kain yg kat sini, kalau biasa sepasang harga dia.. seratus lebih tapi, untuk akak 2 pasang seratus ringgit je"

Explain the salesgirl with a tempted smile (nak bodek akak la tu!!!).
Then, I realized... more than 2oo?#*! and I asked the girl to count for me...

"Akak baru xxx ringgit jek (with a smile of course:)".

What??!!!!!.

If not because of she had cut all the kain, I would return some of them, but what to do kan...terlajak perahu boleh diundur...terpotong kain, bayar lah semuanya....waaaaaa!!!!

And as usual I'll regret for few days...and after that, return to my bad habits... The only effective way to stop me is bring my hubby together, and he'll monitor...hehehehe (but I've always ask him to wait for me outside huahuahuahua:)))

Our antique tv...

Our first tv was Samsung 14" which was bought early of our marriage...hmmm bout 9 yrs old. The tv had done its great service during those years, and finally gone "miung" on 2006 or 2007. However, we still kept the tv in our bedroom since it's still functioning...

Once in a while I would turn on the tv, but in order to view the pic we have to knock it several times..and after few seconds it went blank :)). Just now I felt like watching the tv with Adam on my lap, turned on the tv for a few seconds and then...it went blank....abah came and knocked it hehehehe...

At first Adam just watched abah, after that it went blank again and abah came to an action, then Adam start to giggle...and the tv went blank again...Adam couldn't stop laughing... and abah said "Even Adam knew it...:)))"

Bz...bz... day

I'm having a busiest day...Got so many things to do. Biasalah kan..when it's free I've done nothing but ' lepak'ing but when I got some works to finish on time, tetiba so many other things to settle at once (So that's why there is hadis mentioned: do 5 things before comes the other 5; and one of it is your free time before your bz time...something like that laaa:)..Knew it, but hehehhe...

Early in the morning I went to take bibik for his dental appointment (planned to cabut her teeth, since she's been sakit gigi frequently). Arrived at the clinic at 9am..and the staff mentioned that the Doc hasn't arrive yet. While waiting, Adam refused to sit down, merengek2 asked me out..So I took him for a walk and left bibik at the clinic...

The clinic is at the second floor, so I've to carefully dukung Adam since I'm wearing a high heel (mama glamer la katakan).We went for a breakfast (tapau of course) after that went to buy some muffin for him, and then went back to the clinic...

Doc hasn't arrived yet:((( So we wait while Adam still refused to sit,making a noise ...then I realized...Adam Berak!!!!!!. That's why I've been smelling 'something' but couldn't thing of that previously...So we went to the toilet, cuci berak, tukar lampin...and the Doc still tak sampai:(((

After few minutes,then Doc arrived and Bibik got her treatment...finally.

And that was just the starting of my bz day:(( other list to do are waiting.....

Pizza Dough Recipe...

Some of my friends had been asking for the pizza recipe, so..please try this one ok:)

Pizza Dough

Ingredient:
1 tsp instant yeast
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp oil (I prefer olive oil)
110ml plain water
200 gram High protein

Methods:
Mix all dry ingredients together except salt. For your info; salt is yeast most enemy:) If you put it together the dry will mati tergolek2:). and what is yeast's best friend...sugar (So make sure you should study the theory first....ooopppsss sorry membebel lak). I prefer to use the mixer in this process but you can use your hands though...

Next, put the salt and mix it. Pour the plain water (The use of water depends on the type of flour you used:)) please note on this yaaa or else your dough will become lembik...

Next step is knead the dough until it is sebati then put the oil and uli again..you knew when to stop:))).

Rest the dough until double of its volume (about 30mins - 1 hr). The fermentation time really depends on the weather, why?back to theory again (sorry, can't help it since this is the nature of lecturer ..explain..explain..explain muahahaha) Because yeast needs good foods, nice temperature for them to ferment cam manusia gak lahhh). Hhmmm, think about it, how nice what Allah has done for every living creature:)...OOOpppsss membebel again...

After the dough is ready, knead and make into any pizza shape you like and put the topping on top of it...Another tip:) please make sure you gals cocok2 the fork on the pizza dough before putting the topping yaaa, why? heheheh to let the air out so when it is baked it will cook nicely....

So that's all. easy ? You should try first and tell me then....
For me, the process is tedious and messy but the output is best since no 'msg' added and the kids celebrated me as a pro....hehehehe

Chaiyok! Chaiyok! Chaiyok!

Life is not always about getting what you want, doing things the way you like, having nice people around. Keep reminding myself of these again and again...:((( Sometimes what is bad to you will not definitely be bad and what is good to you could be hurt at the end..Allah, please keep me strong:)))

Ya I feel a bit gloomy lately with unexpected things happened around me:( Kept reciting the prayer given by my mom

Hasbunallah wa ni'mal wakeel
Translation: Wish Allah could lighten all the burden...

Every bitterness will have its sweetness in the end, Insyallah. May Allah open their heart so that they will regain their consciuos, above all there is always Allah...and no human being can overcome this Super power. Anything happen is within HIS control...

I've been trying strongly to remind myself to be patient and if I believe in Allah everything will be fine. and I noticed that what have been mentioned in Quran is true that 'Syaitan has vowed to distract human until dooms day...as i tried to gather my strength and have faith in Allah there are always evils whisper trying to distract me, that I should not be patient, that I should fight for my right...Masyallah...

Muazzin kecil:)))

After performing maghrib prayer,Aiman asked me:

"Mama,boleh tak tulis azan dalam bahasa arab?"

I was surprised and wrote it down.Fortunately, I studied in sekolah menengah agama pulau tawar (hehehe precisely mentioned) previously, so Alhamdulillah I have no problem to write it as well as understand few arabics. Thanks to my parents for sending me there (really appreciated it now) and thanks to all teachers there as well...

Back to story:) After finished writing, gave it to Aiman and he said;

"Abang nak berlatih menghafal azan, iqamat abang dah ingat dah"

and he kept practising, followed me around to hear he memorized the azan, and finally he remembered (sometimes still flop here and there, but ok la:). and he told me;

"Ok, abang dah ingat, nanti lepas ni abang nak azan kat KAFA"

So... that was the reason, he wanted to be muazzin at his religious class (KAFA) and he needs to do it properly:))).

Alhamdulillah, thanks to Allah for he became a good son...really hopes he'll remain this way AMIN.......and all bad temptation will not change him as he is today....

My first Abaya:)))

My abaya has arrived...yea!yea!yea! This is my first time having abaya:)) not really interested on the first place...however as i surfed the blog, my eyes stop at one of the design..so simple and yet elegant (chewaahhh again perasann..). Can't stop thinking of the abaya muahahaha!!!. So I bought it:)

This pose was purposely to show the beads:))

Until now, I'm still thinking besides hari raya and special occasion, should I wear this to the office...hmmmm. So, if anyone of you seeing me wearing the abaya..Don't mention a word:) uhukksss.so malu2 kucing gitu...

But thinking again, why should I be shame of,since it is according to the syariah, cover the aurat..and yet sooo nice!!!

So for those who's interested in buying the abaya or 'menjamu mata' you can go to the abayish blog (look at the right corner of this blog and click 'the abayish').

'Peace':))

Above is the pic of Alisa and me wearing the Abaya (not sure hers is abaya too, anyway apa2 jek lah). Alisa's abaya was bought by her mok tok during her umrah...

Pizza time:))

Finally, i managed to make pizza for the kids..hooray!!! After few days of promises made to Aiman and Alisa. They were so excited since it's been a very long time since their last time having pizza (We've been boycotting pizza..so bye-bye to pizza hut).

At 10.30am Aiman, Alisa and I went out for the ingredients;flour,cheese,yeast etc.I started making the dough at 2pm. Rest it until double of its volume. Don't forget to cover the dough so that it won't dry out:)

Dough made for 2 pizzas, second pic - cover the dough and let it rest for about 1 hr

After that, start to make the topping. Blend few tomatoes and saute until thickening for the sauce (there are plenty of them available in the market, but i prefer homemade sauce). Chopped the onion and sliced the chicken into small pieces. Fried until it cooked,don't use too much oil as it will meleleh on top of the pizza..we want it to be dry:)

Lastly, put the topping on top of the dough. First spread the tomato sauce,next dried oregano or thyme's leaves, next is the chicken and don't forget mozarella or cheddar cheese on top of it,as much as you like:)

Don't look at the finishing coz this is my most failure part:))) but it taste yummy!!angkat bakul ok...

Aiman and Alisa helped with the cheese,spreading all over the pizza:) and voila!! the pizza is ready to go into the oven (for about 10-15min,170 deg)...

Easy as it sounds uhhh,but the tedious part is 'uli' the dough, hate this part so much:((( as this part really need the highest patience (and i'm so lack of this hehehehe).

Aiman and Alisa can't even wait for the pizza to cool down!! After it cooked, they've been waiting with the plate..and less than 15 min, half of the pizza was gone...Me, as usual seeing others enjoy the food I'm kenyang already:)))

Tudung...Tudung...Tudung...

I've seen my friends wearing Munawwarah or Ariani new scarfs (wasn't so new actually, but it is for me). What is Munawwarah scarf,for those who are little laid back (like me) Please go to this blog-> http://munawwarahdesign.blogspot.com/.

Previously I was not attracted at all!!!. however I've asked my friend to buy the scarf for me, and started to wear it...and it was sooooo easy, you dont need to fold (kelepet) as the awning did everything for you:) and to my surprise it is actually fit to any shape of face!!! No wonder! the designer took 3 years doing the research and seems like it is worth the effort:))).

And now I'm becoming crazy with the scarf that I've asked everybody to go to the Munawwarah boutique to buy the scarf for me, so desperate uhukksss!!! and on 22nd to 24th May Munawwarah boutique is having sales!!!!! Waaaaaaaaa...why dont they sell it through internet for those like me....

I guess after this it'll be munawwarah...munawwarah...munawwarah, good bye to my old scarfs...But till then I've to make sure i got enough collections:))) The boutique is surely making big money from the people like me:)))

Another bored day...

This is my third day of doing nothing in the office:) Don't feel like working ...:))) Maybe woman's syndrom kot....

Last night I managed to bake two cakes; choc moist and blueberry cheese. After coming back from work i discovered no condensed milk (for choc moist topping) in stock,so i called hubby to buy on his way home. He came back with the milk,"Oopppssss sorry bang! I Forgot we run out of gas.uhuks, how can you make the topping...hehehe"Of course I have to ''lend my ears' for his ceramah:))) hehehhee. He went out again for the gas:)), Came back and start his work (whatelse..He's the expert choc moist topping chef). After finish the topping, we went out again to have dinner (no gas,so i cant cook:))) and looked for cream cheese and few things for the second cake...so tired:(

We reached home at 9pm and I started doing the blueberry cheese cake...Despite of all these messy things, I enjoy baking...and satisfy most if my friends enjoy the cakes...:).

Other routine I have on every monday and tuesday night is watching Korean drama (I'm a big fan of korean drama, cant resist the temptation!!!) on KBS world. Until last week I enjoyed watching 'Boys over flower" (the F4 group is so good looking!!!!,of course my hubby is best of all!!!) and the drama ended last week. Last night they aired new drama 'The slingshot',so far it was just ok:( really hopes the drama is good)... Recall Aiman's words "Mama ni suka sgt tgk cerita korea" hehehehe.

So, It is true...

Last night we went to the clinic to bring Adam since he had a flu symptom. Abah is so particular with his kids, even a small symptom he will immediately seek for the treatment....Maybe due to our past experiences with Aiman and Alisa....:(

After getting the treatment we had a short conversation with the Doctor on various types of flu and diseases (mainly caused by pigs). We've been shocked with the influenza A H1N1, meningitis (radang selaput otak) and latest is xxxxxtis (can't remember the name exactly) but it is radang hati which occured in Melaka and N.Sembilan. He said these diseases were mostly caused by pigs...So it's why in Islam it is sunat for us to kill the pig, and as we knew pigs contain lots of bacterias...and to our shocked, Malaysia is even exporting pigs to China????? That is how big our pig industries in Malaysia (shame to be known as Islamic country)...and we've been informed that pig industry is one of the most profitable industry (that explained everything...), and all the tokey2 are so damn rich...

However, that was not the point, the thing is what has been taught in Islam is true...Every forbidden thing has a good reason behind it...So as a muslim we should abide by the rules, as Allah knew everything....

All about Cakes.....

These are the cakes available in my collections with the updated price. However some of it has no pic due to my pro cameraman (whoelse...my hubby laarrr...) was not around to snap the pic. And most of these cakes were snapped long..long...time ago so the finishing is not that good...however I've improved a lot:))) Alhamdulillah...

Today, Adam is 1 year old.How fast time flies:) Hmmmm... what has he accomplished at this age...6 teeth, pronounce few words; mama, abah,abang,ball,nak tak nak,mayang (is for prayer), geram (this word will come out whenever he mad at his brother and sister:), i wonder where he learnt this from).

Even though he still can't walk (he's so cool type of boy muahahaha),but he's good at kicking the ball (while sitting,with his feet is actively kick and gelecek the ball). He is so fussy (must took after me:) with everything, mostly his puting susu...he'll immediately recognize the changes in shape,material and refuse to drink his milk.

What will attrack him? Handphone, books and of course anything owned by his brother and sister,pencil,sharpener,books,color pencil...

Despite of all, he is the most precious gift to me (same goes to his brother and sister of course)...I've experienced lots of unimaginable things which lead me to become a better muslimah,Thanks Allah for everything...

Happy Teachers' Day

"Happy Teachers' Day" to all teachers around the world.

On 16th May 1956 Federal Legislative Council had accepted suggestions from Report of the Education Committee also known as 'Laporan Razak' and was used as our Dasar Pelajaran Kebangsaan. Thus, 16th May every year was chose as a Teachers' day.That was some info on Teachers' day:)

As promised to aiman and alisa, i baked two cakes for them for their teachers' day celebration:) Aiman asked for Ben-10's cake (whatelse for boy) and Alisa barbie's cake with pink color (she's so girlie type). Abah was also involved, the word on the cake was done by abah:) His handwriting is much better than me plus he's so particular type of man...hehehheehe while i'm the opposite,so we complement each other ...cewahhhh perasan lakkk

Last week we've made a teachers' list for Aiman and alisa to prepare for their gift. 10 for aiman and another 10 for alisa. We went out searching for gift,wrapper. Alhamdulillah everything was ready...Card printing,gift and finally cakes:)))

Teachers' day is not about gift,cakes etc, it is how we appreciate and remember all the effort put by the teachers...and kids nowadays like to express their feeling through gift so why not:))

Aiman asked me "Mama cikgu jugak kan? so aiman buat kad utk mama" and it was written "selamat hari guru mama"...even a simple card made from a plain A4 paper written with pencil,i feel touched by the thought...

First day as a blogger...

Salam..
I can't really express the feeling as I'm writing....nervous,shy...I'm really having a mix feelings...
I'm not good at writing....However, after I read through my friends' blog,it is actually nice to have my own blog...and I should try:) So, here I am....
