Two Good Recipes...

Hi....
Hb started Therapy at UMSC yesterday at 2 pm. and finished at 4pm. I hang around shops at Amcorp Mall for two long hours. Only the Book Store interest me.
But two hours in Bangsar is a short time. You can never compare window shopping at Bangsar Village (the place I used to go when Hb did Pyhsio at Pantai Hospital) Bangsar is known for the Rich and Famous...*suka tengok orang* I used to linger from one shop to another without feeling bored.
But *sob* Amcorp Mall is rather run down..nak pergi toilet pun takut, kinda spooky...
No choice.. that's the nearest place from UMSC to lepak lol!

Baking with fun...
Wanna share some wonderful recipes I did during the weekend.
First recipe was Scones, I baked on Saturday morning... got the recipe from Nigella. It tasted so gooood that you could keep it for one whole day *and still soft*.... I think that's the best Scones I've ever made. And thanks to my kids for the Recipe book. I had tried 4 recipes from the book and it didn't disappoint me at all.

A wonderful day start with good Food




The 2nd recipe was Cheese Cake. Not from Nigella but from my Sister Teh. I totally forgot about the cream cheese that I bought almost a month ago and already close to it's expiry date. So, I started to baked. And the result was .... Wallah! soft, creamy and Yum!
Well, you see, tho Raya has come to its end but I was still baking......









That's all for today... Adios!

Riang Ria Raya part 2

On the 8th of Raya..
It was Tuesday, and I drove back to Ipoh with Hb and Ani my maid. I still did not understand why I had this feeling of phobia each time I wanted to drive long journey...*felt sicked a day before the journey* it's just all in the mind...maybe!
But once behind the steering, I drove confidently...macam Speed Racer, hehe.. We started from home around 10.20 am and arrived Ipoh 20 minutes to 1.00 pm.
Lunch at my Mum's. Didn't want to trouble her...but we knew she would be glad to cook for us. We spent 2 nights at my in laws.

Mom is a never ending song in my heart. Of comfort,
happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget
the words. But I always remember the tune.
What is Raya without having to greet this women...Mom


Air Tangan Mama

To my niece Ida, Congratulation for the birth of her twin babies.
She gave birth the next day we were in Ipoh...it was a pleasant
surprised actually, for she was not due until a few more weeks.
Both babies are still in the incubator.

Father and Son!
Hb and his father had private moment together...*watching T.V*


The next day, my sis in law Jay and my brother Noordin were too kind to
invite us for lunch. Hb always love Jay's cooking...perfect he said!

With Sis Teh. The same day her daughter were admitted.,
She was with her from 5 am till noon...
naik Ambulance lagi.
Macam SuperMak la.

To My Father, "Happy Birthday''
12th September.
