Blurrr ke?

Tadi dok try new bloggers template that i got from some site...entah apa yang dah di buat, rumah i yang asal warna hijau dah TERcat warna pink. Malas nak pikir dah biar lah dulu.
Terlanjur bercerita, I'd like to share a site that maybe useful to us all for reference. Baru buka saja belum sempat explore lebih lagi, nak tengok, layarilah sini, Quran.

sembang-sembang

Lama makcik tak masuk blog...sibuk sikit + internet selalu buat hal macam chipsmore kejap ade kejap hilang....
Pagi tadi ikut hb pergi
photography, kita pun 'galas' camera ala2 pro gitu. And of all, member ambik gambar makcik & hb....memang jarang kami dapat posing dua orang sbb dia yang selalu pegang camera

Teruja dengan kerajinan blog
gers, makcik pun cubalah resepi fruitcake yang di ambil dari dapur ummi. Terima kasih. Tak payah letak resepilah ye....cake ni akan nampak lebih cantik bila dipotong kalau disimpan dalam fridge.

SPM (Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia)


My second son will be sitting for his SPM starting tomorrow. I've always seen him so relax but this time he seems panicky....exam blues? Tak apa dah usaha, dah doa and now all you have to do is tawakkal. Since yesterday dok complain...nak demam, tak lalu makan, perut berangin....mak pun sibuk mengalahkan doktor, bagi ubat demam, ubat gastrik, honeylah, vitamin C lah. Nampak gaya mak yang kalut lebih....All the best Adil, you've worked hard.

Back home...


Alif was discharged this morning. Back home, all I did was RELAX (sleep&eat). It was also the nasi kandar day (Nasi Kandar Kayu is just across from our house) as i was too lazy (say:tired) to cook.


Late evening, people from health dept came to fog our area (eventhough alif probably contracted dengue in usm..)
With hubby having dinner appointment, Alif @ USM, Adil still watching TV (oh that couch potato of mine!), MIL in her room, I am here trying to figure out how to improve my blog.Still learning.....

2nd week of October was a busy one as i had orders and also an open house.
12 oct - attended a friend's open house. would regard as a house warming too since the couple and their 3 children moved into the house just 6 months ago. Nice big house ...complete with kidney-shaped swimming pool -in the middle of a padi field.

I had orders of Curry Mee and nasi himpit (pressed rice with peanut gravy) for 50 pax on the 16th.
The next day was an order for 80 pax. This time it was ketupat pulut with rendang ayam, nasi himpit with peanut gravy, fried beehoon, fruits, cold/hot drinks. I was lucky to have my 2nd son helped me that day, thanks Adil, you saved my day....

Immediately after, it was again preparation for my two sons open house. Every part of me worked this time and finally on sunday 19th, they had nasi beriani, ayam masak merah, daging kicap, kerabu timun, brownies, sponge cake, jellies, cheesecakes and my hubby's specially requested mee goreng (dubbed mee goreng uncle). It was a tiring but a very happy day as everyone went home smiling & a full stomach.

.....And as everything seems to settle......my eldest son had high fever this week. After two days at hospital, it was confirmed that he had dengue! My oh my and today is our fifth day at the hospital. Hopefully he can be discharged in a day or two as he will be sitting for his semester exam in less than two weeks.
