Visiting The Garden With Tischa








We had splendid day at The Gardens today! Diya, Tischa and her mom and myself. We had planned to go out today but haven’t decide on where to go exactly and later I thought why have the same routine and stil go the the same mall all the time kan? And so why not The Gardens..

It took us almost an hour to find a parking spot and finally once we found one, straight away we went to the mall. There were so many people there most probably because it’s the ‘back to school’ season and every body is like going shopping there.
First thing first; FOOD! We were so hungry as it was already 2pm. Went looking around and finally we decided to have lunch at The Garden Food Court. Kids share plain rice with soup and us moms had sizzling rice and noodle. They provide small kids area nearby the entrance that makes it easier for us to eat and kids play once they are done with their food.

Later we went window-shopping around and I saw this beautiful red wallet at Charles & Keith and dying to have it! But wait! Not yet… so we continue to walk around the mall until it was time for us to get back home before the traffic jam starts.

Making Cekodok




This is one of Diya’s Favorite cekodok; cekodok lemak manis. Since I don’t know how to make this from scratch, I just got the instant package and surprisingly they taste so SEDAP!
Lately I started to have tea time for myself at home.. I make simple fried noodle ker, kuew teow ker, cekodok ker, sometimes I will buy bread at bakery shop and have them with coffee, tea or hot milo.. Not that I tak nak jaga my ‘makan’ but I feel that now I have Diya I should make her to feel homey and as how I get to have when I was small. I can still remember how my grandma used to make and cook everything for me from scratch! She even make me sedap roti canai!!!
I want diya to have all that. I want her to remember that ‘my mom used to make me this.. and that..’ my mom used to be a very busy career woman and doesn’t have much time for me when I was small. Most if the time it was maid, grandma n granddad sometimes and my aunt. So every time grandma is around she will always cook me all those fancy food and so will I do it for my Diya. I don’t ever want to go back into corporate world, I just want to raise my Diya.
Moga Di Izinkan Allah.


New year!

Alhamdulillah, it has been almost a full year for 2009.. And for me I plan to start fresh! I want to blog fresh, I want to dress fresh, I want everything to be fresh!!! Been a while from my last posting here, due to my busyness of bakings, Diya and her activities and many more… busy as a bee sampai I tak sengaja, well I sengaja lah abaikan blog ni coz I had to.. Sorry dearies.. Like I said; I nak start FRESH..


Ok.. What have I been busy for/with? Well.. My cakes mostly..










Those pictures are from my latest design cake collections, you can view more at www.pumpkinmumycupcakes.com well as you can see, I now make cakes too! Mostly customers love my cartoon cakes..
Apart from baking, I have also been busy with Diya and her play group Alim Kids (http://alimkidsplaygrouptamantun.blogspot.com/)
 activities. I even joined one of the activities and became one of the speakers ( will write about this separately with pictures too hehehe..)

And so like I said earlier, I want to start my blog here FRESH.. 2009 is and will be the most challenging year for me, despite I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and has now become a SURVIVOR, life is just great! My Diya is growing gracefully, I have started back on my baking business and I praise the Lord for the life He has Given.
