Macam-macamlah..

So many things has been happening since my last postings. In between taking Aisyah, her friend Sarah and my 2 nephews from Abu Dhabi for a music gig in KL on Saturday ; taking the kids to the High School Musical Ice Tour on Sunday last weekend, a lot of stressful work situations happened as well...Sigh! The things I have to cope with...
Not that I'm complaining..I love the fact that I have made the effort to connect with my nephews who we only see an average every 3 years. These boys are so nice and warm up to us immediately even after being apart, which is more than I can say from people we see on a daily basis. I guess we are guilty of taking people that we see on a regular basis for granted. Either that or the expectations are not clear. Whatever!
We really enjoyed the HSM Ice tour show. I'm glad I gave tickets to Fizah and kids as well as my sister and Wan. When people feel good, I feel better!!!
We launched a new drama series in Crowne Hotel KL last week. The show reel was impressive and we have had a lot of mostly good write ups about the show. The show starts tonight at 8.30pm on ntv7, of course!! The show is great with a very nice look and feel different from a lot of the other Malay content that we have on TV now. People !!! Watch Ampang Medikal ok...
Yesterday was a stressful day!!! No details here, but it's a day when all things that could go wrong did...for instance..when I have no attendees to an event, the big boss decided to turn up!!! Huwargh!!! So there I was in the middle of The Curve actually calling the public to come to the event!! I'm glad I skipped gym!!
The kids are at home, away from school this week. The number of times I received calls from Khairin daily to tell me that she's bored is getting unbearable. How can I explain to her that that's life?...sometimes it's boring, sometimes not...with its ups and downs...How can I tell her to cope with what life has to offer and make the best of things when even me as an adult struggles often to understand that some things are never meant to be understood...Some things; you just have to live with...Some things perhaps; you can do without. Just a matter of time for us to tell ourselves to break free from things that makes us miserable by making the best of things...I await that day...

Jemput jemput pisang/ CeKODOK/Banana Balls

Image
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

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...
