Hello again...

It has been almost 2 years since I last scribbled in this blog.. woohoo.. lama nya! 

So to update you people out there (macam la ramai sgt yang membaca blog ni hehe), we are now back and alive in Malaysia - tanah tumpah darahku.  A lot has happened since we got here back in September 2011. 

Hubby completed his PhD alhamdulillah. I got my Masters but now I'm  a Masterchef (at home lah..) 

Ika went back to Indon last year after 8 years of service.  So now I'm a mummy, wifey, chef, laundrywoman, driver(sometimes),cleaner, bibik et al. LOL

The kids settled down well in school - Along even took the UPSR exam last year! She struggled with her BM. Not even a year sekolah dah exam. But she managed to get 2A2B1C, obviously the B and C are her BM's result. But its OK, I'm sure she will perform better in her PMR nanti. 

This year it's Angah's turn for UPSR pulak. I think she's doing well in her studies, coping with her BM, sekolah agama, latihan sukan, kokurikulum activities, her dancing sessions, tuisyen etc.. fuhh banyak nya aktivities.

Ezaddin is in school already! My hero dah darjah 1 this year ;)

And this year.. so many things ahead..

my brother in law wedding, my brother wedding, cousin2 wedding (this is JUMBO sale lah.. everybody LAKU this year. , ramai2 kawin)

Lupa nk story.. i got promoted last year! hehe.. syukur Alhamdulillah. AND I have new image now.. Alhamdulillah

Next month we are moving to our new house. Nanti kalau ada masa i"ll upload pictures.. we gonna sell our current house.. ada sape-sape nak beli? PM me ya.. 

That's all for today.. hopefully its not gonna be another 2 years until my next update haha.

Bye!

Too Long...

Too long, it has been too long since i last updated this blog... am i that busy?

well, look like I am!! Busy and stressed out..hmmm....

anyway.......

i'm half way through my study already.. yeay! the biggest chuck are over and now i'm doing this last piece of work before i finish.. double yeay!!






Hubby's study also has almost come to the end, just few more tweak here and there.. and hopefully he will be able to submit by July/August time.. insyAllah

90 days from today and we are leaving this English land heading for lovely home sweet home...

70% of our stuffs here are packed and sealed ready to be shipped back home (oh yeah, we are so ready to go..)

We will be celebrating Eid in Malaysia with beloved family and friends this year! yeay!!!

that's a lot to celebrate this year, isn't it? ;-)

hope all goes well and as planned. Pray for us.

Amin.

14th Ramadhan today...

Salam.. dah 2 minggu kita berpuasa. Sekejap jer lagi dah nak raya kan? Nasib baik lah kat sini takde Mega Sale raya.. kalu tak mesti dah sibuk nak beli baju raya, kasut raya, beg raya dan lain-lain.. hehehe.. save duit!

I bet shopping kompleks kat Msia tu sure meriah sakan! Ohh how I miss shopping raya kat Plaza Angsana huhu... Next year kalu sempat balik before raya, for sure situ lah salah satu tempat WAJIB singgah.. mintak2 ler dapat balik before raya..AMIN.

Semalam dah start buat kuih raya sikit... nanti lah dah banyak baru kita tempek gambar kat sini. baru meriah sikit hehe... baru rasa macam beli kuih kat Angsana! Itu pun kalau banyak lah kan.. kalu sikit simpan sendiri sudeh :P

neway.. ni ler beberapa juadah yang sempat di buat (dan di ambik gambar) beberapa hari lepas.. Layan jer lah yer...

Kuih keria

Dough burger malaysia sebelum terjun dalam minyak..

Dah jadi burger Malaysia.. hah ambik ko, ternganga gitu!

Dessert - Cheese sponge cake


Resepi kat sini..kalu ada yg berminat nak buat, sila lah.
Best kek ni.. sangat lah lembut. tak nak kunyah pun buleh..
telan jer macam ular sawa hehe.. tercekik sendiri tanggung..


ok lah until next update (tak tau ler bila tu)...

Selamat meneruskan ibadah puasa.
Rebutlah ganjaran besar di minggu2 terakhir Ramadhan ni
semoga di temukan dgn Lailatulqadar.. amin

Farewell

2 weeks today I will no longer be part of University of Nottingham. 3rd September will be my last day.. then i'm back to become a student again. Today I received an email from NTU about registration, joining instruction and what not. Classes will start 20th September...

Since some of my colleagues are going for a long holiday from tomorrow and won't be here on my last day so I made a cake for them...

Some even give me card and gifts before they left.
thanks a lot!

And what am I gonna miss THE most?

Of course my two-screen PC!

I want this when I go back to UTM..
(IT manager please take note okey?? ) :P

Legoland, Windsor

Hari ni tak nak cerita pasal buka puasa sebab semalam makan nasi putih n lauk biasa2 jer. Pastu pulak budak2 tu sibuk nak makan pizza so mama nyer order jer SETTLED! hehe.. tomato and cheese pizza and BBQ chicken pizza.

Ni nak tunjuk gambor masa we all pegi Legoland aritu. This trip sempena Along's 10th birthday on 12th August. Because it fall during Ramadhan, so we bring forward the trip to the last week before Ramadhan..



Millions of LEGO bricks!! This theme park is just right for the kids at my kiddos age. We managed to get on most of the rides unlike masa kat Disneyland.. adik always tak cukup height so we can't get on it together-gether.

We left Notts around 6 am ish and got there around 915 am. Just in time before the park opens at 930. The weather was quite cloudy but i guess it's a blessing in disguise as it feels a bit cool hence we are less tired. All day at the park.. left the park around 8pm (tu dia.. punya lah lama dari pagi..kaki dah mcm nk tercabut penat!!)

THE MINILANDS

:: SAFARI LAND ::
all made of lego bricks! Nampak sgt real kan?

Next... drop by WINDSOR CASTLE before headed home. Next N3 lah yer...

Selamat Berbuka!

Masak apa hari ni? ... 4th & 5th Ramadhan

Salam semua

Dah hari ke-6 kita puasa hari ni kan? Kejap jer kan.. cepat betul masa berjalan. Semalam tak dapat nak update blog. Maklum ler, bila weekend ni busy nyer lebih skit. Masa ni ler nak buat macam-macam - nak pikir masak apa untuk buka jer dah dekat setengah hari hehehe… tu tak masuk buat keje2 lain lagi!

NMC Iftar picnic last Saturday...tak jadi picnic sebab cuaca tak mengizinkan.. so buat indoor kat Islamia School. Makanan secara pot luck, tapi kami di ‘arah’kan bawak makanan cukup utk makan sekeluarga jer. Pastu nanti tukar2 ler makanan. So after pikir dekat setengah hari tu J akhirnya terhasil lah nasi tomato, ayam masak merah and acar rampai. Kuih plak we all bawak kuih BOM!..

Ni bukan BOM main-main tau.. ni betul2 bom yang boleh meletop okey!! Kalau goreng api besar sangat and goreng terlebih lama, maka meletup lah dia!!! Lawak betul. Tu lah resepi main ‘hentam’ jer, padan muka! Tapi gambar ni nampak lawa jer kan? I dah sembunyikan bahagian2 yang merekah tu.. tapi in term of taste.. not bad (sendiri buat, sendiri puji lah kan?) Lembut and sedap. Credit to myself hehehe...

Ni lah juadah kami. Kalau tengah lapar memang tempting habis kan? Al-kisahnya AJK NMC buat pertandingan suka2.. juadah mana yang paling menarik? So u all rasa sape yang menang?? Hihi… sape lagi? Makcik ler!!! Dapat kurma sekotak. Along and Angah yang seronok benor dapat hadiah..

Below are few picts from the iftar session..

Kaum ibu dan anak-anaknya..

Makan dalam dulang tu,
kat Msia pun rasa nya dah tak buat macam ni...

Ni pulak chicken,patato and mushroom pie yang buat malam Sabtu aritu. Dah kena bedal separuh baru ingat nk ambik gambor. Pie ni Along yang suka sangat.. dah lama dia suruh buat tapi mama nyer asyik bertangguh jer! Maklum 'rajin' kan.. tp ni bulan pose kesian pulak kat dia.. akhirnya setelah memaksa diri buat benda ni balik from iftar session tu, alhamdulillah jadi jugak. Laju dia makan masa sahur tu hihi..

Semalam pulak kami berbuka dengan nasi goreng cina, sweet and sour seabass and egg tofu with mixed vegetables. Pastu buat roti john.. tapi hampeh semua tak ambik gambar sebab takde mood. Lagi pun adik demam, so melayan dia jer lah..

Until tomorrow.. selamat memasak and selamat berbuka!
