Not that lonely in Bandung after all..

2nd day alone in Bandung...After the ghastly breakfast at the hotel....and I should tell you that because the hotel rooms and its corridors are not carpeted it can get quite noisy in the morning as people start waking, walking around, kids running to the pool outside your room. Memekak!!! Btw, after breakie, I took the angkut to Cihampelas. The fare was RP1500 so you can guess it's a bit far from Jalan Sukajadi.
I've been in Cihampelas the last time I was with hubby..To cut the crap...I did most of my shopping here that I had to purchase a big backpack from Cihampelas Walk or as they say it Ciwalk (aku hengat amende lah ciwok, ciwok...rupanya CIWALK...). There 's a new building in Jalan Cihampelas where an FOS called Blossom is. Eeee, best shopping tak hengat...

Also managed an Urut Refleksi...Reflexology lah yang walaupun agak sakit tapi sangat best selepas jenjalan dengan shopping yang berbag-bag. And it only cost me RP45,000, baru RM16 beng...One thing's for sure when you are alone...you tend to take things easy compared to a few days back with the whole rombongan Cik Kiah, you constantly have to be aware of time, so you don't keep people waiting...bliss....

I had lunch at Mc D..Paket Hemat Prosperity Burger yang mak ai...tak sedap...ler...Ntah kenapa, fries pun tak berapa nak g...Ish...tak abis akak makan... Sampai kat Ciwalk tu before I
left Cihampelas, silap lah ternampak J.CO. Donuts. That was my dinner.
JCo Donuts that was my dinner...Syedap seh...
Sampai hotel mengeluarkan segala barang and tried to pack...Ish...tak muat walaupun my luggage dah max capacity with the additional new bag pun tak muat. Called hubby and started panicking...Member kata suruh roll all the stuff, which I did..pun tak muat..

Next morning, naik hangkut g Paris Van Java, sampai Carrefour, yes...kengkawan ada Carrefour kat Bandung (matilah mek jadi duta Bandung!!...belilah lagi satu sports bag..baru muat sumer...The cab which took me to the airport came at 11nish...Was at the airport early...Tak sabar nak balik umah..With my excess baggage, I boarded the flight...dah terbayang- bayang semua sumer kat umah...It was a good feeling to finally be on my way home...sigh...

From left : Zaim 'backstroking' amidst the stuff that mummy borong, Zaim in his new Power Rangers suit that he still insist to wear after every bath tak kera siang ke malam and Abang with the cool RM4 Bandung t.shirt ...seratus persen katon (cotton) tau!

Jemput jemput pisang/ CeKODOK/Banana Balls

Burp! Alhamdulillah... dah berbuka semua? We berbuka at home today. Actually since puasa started 9 days ago, memang kami berbuka at home. We prefer it that way. Tak kelam kabut nak solat maghrib di luar although Alhamdulillah sekarang ni banyak tempat berbuka dah provide tempat bersolat. Tapi mana boleh beat buka at home, lepas buka boleh terus lepak-lepak atas katil solat Maghrib kan? kan? So we either tapao from one of the shops near home or wherever we fancy or I would cook simple stuff for buka. Today our menu was : our usual brown rice, ikan goreng selar kuning (yellow thread fish), kangkung goreng belacan ( water spinach fried with prawn paste chilli), acar buah (bought from my cousin) , my husband’s telur dadar (omellete) and for sweets, I made jemput jemput . This is what we call these banana balls or orang belah sini panggil cekodok (I could never associate this beauties with an animal name, though... kodok sounds kinda gross). So for people who asked how to mak...

Japan, April 2018

Image
I was in Tokyo last month. Alone... well there were millions of people in Japan but yeah I was travelling alone. Up till the night I boarded the plane, I was still asking myself “Oi! Apasal nak pergi sorang arr? Japan pulak tu... London kan senang? Gang ramai, semua cakap English” Ok panic kejap tapi tak boleh keluar kapal terbang dah.. So, yup, there I was on that MH night flight with an itinerary for 8 days in Japan. No turning back, perempuan! April was my birthday month and what I wanted was to spend it quietly alone. Anyway, last year I had enough birthday celebrations to last me till this year. Alhamdulillah for good friends and family! Sampai Narita at almost 7am. First time in Tokyo and how do I buy a train card? With a lot of asking (ayam and itik bercakap) and hand gestures. Masuk train Jepun at peak hours and everyone in the train is either sleeping, reading, scrolling their phones or staring into space, all except for a Canadian guy and a Melayu Malaysia yang sama2 ag...

Salam Ramadan

Assalamualaikum and Salam Ramadan! Wow! Hello! Am back! Been a while. 6th day of Ramadan and I’ve been quite good (I think) managing my food intake. Saya sudah tua la; have to start being more serious about what I put in this old engine. So, I was in a 10 days detox program just before Ramadan and managed to bring the weight down by 2.7kg; not much but good for me as it has sort of kick off a better eating habit. People who knows me are well aware that I love food. I used to run a lot so the weight was somehow kept in check. Now that I have significantly decrease my running mileage, the weight has become quite stagnant if not, moved up a bit! Eek! So for those interested, this is my go-to recipe for sahur, which is super easy and super healthy. It’s the Chia Seed Pudding. Lots of recipes online but here’s mine: I use a mason jar this. Just use 5 tablespoons of organic chia seeds ( I bought mine at Bake With Yen). They are cheaper than at your name brand organic shop. I...
