Projects!

Projek buat kuih!

Dah 2-3 hari kat rumah nih asik buat kuih melayu jerk! Ada kuih binka ubi, kuih kaswi, kuih talam, karipap, kuih gelang and memacam lah… Sedap betul plak tuh… I wonder mcm maner org kat luar tu boleh jual kuih2 melayu so expensive but tasteless? Bukan mahal sgt modalnyer pun cuma kena use proper ingredients lah like good eggs, good n fresh santan, fresh daun pandan and suchs lah.. nih asal gula naik few cents pun harga kuih naik bukan main mahal alas an harga gula naik lah ni la tu lah.. tapi bila harga gula turun tak pulak dia turunkan harga.. dah tu kuih yg dijual tu makin lama makin kecik je potongannyer. Haihhh… I pun jual kek jugak n bila harga barang naik tentulah I terasa ‘kehebatannya’ tapi bukan lah tak untung langsung kan??? Untung kurang je lah, so I kira takder rezeki je nak untung banyak bulan nih. And my system is I charge extra on complication of the designs bukan sebanyak2nyer atas kek tu sahaja so selagi boleh I maintain kan harga kek but if I get extra it will be on my designs and Alhamdulillah my customers kebanyakkannyer paham n keep ordering. I percaya as long as we use good ingredients just like we ‘homebake’ our cakes for our families; im sure people will love to order our cakes again.. again.. and again!

Eh, ter ‘promote’ my cakes plak hhehehehehe…

So my next plan is bila everything dah settle here I nak masuk cake designing courses. And mybe cake baking class too to learn baking techniques better. Since diya pun dah habis breast feeding so im am more mobile lah, she can lepak with her grandma sementara I go for classes.. is it too late for me to start now? Bukan aper I tgk org kat luar tuh muda2 dah pegi pelbagai cake classes lah and even start conducting classes on their own.. I nih dah 30 tahun baru nak start pegi class? At 1st I tak plan nak attend any class but if I wanna go further n grow big I think I need qualification. I need to learn properly. My Degree in accounting is good for business but I need ‘more’ on my skills. Home business nih sume pun SDN BHD so skills are important too.

I am telling myself: I MUST GROW BIG!

Ps: lupa lah nak amik gamba kuih2 melayu tu…

Diya Tantrum!



Adoyai....
Diya lately tantrum habis! If she tak dapat satu benda dia nak tu habis dia nangis berguling! Till one point I dah terduduk n terpikir how shall I handle her in dis situation?? I tak rasa pukul akan menyelesaikan masalah nih.. shouting will only teach her to shout at me back.. so what should I do? Very small reason also can make her mengamok soooo much! So, what I did was, everytime dia melalak bila tak dapat aper dia nak (at da moment I apply dis at home only lah, kat luar or shopping mall belom lagi), I will take her to a small corner n make her stand or sit there till she finishes her cries! She will attempt to move or go towards me ill scold her n say STAY THERE!! With my finger pointing to the spot! She will still cry but at least she stay on her spot n cry there. Bila dia habis nangis I’ll pujuk her back lah, give her big hug n talk to her nicely that what she did was wrong.. Betul ke aper I buat nih?

Diary?

hello...

lately i feel lemas sbb tak dapat menulis in my blog.. been months already n i rarely dapat update my blog.. this is because i am at da moment staying with my mom in gombak and broadband here is not so good.. so at da moment i just tahan je sebaik mungkin ngan internet connection kat sini. hehe..


neways… tulis diary nih maner yg I rasa yg boleh I post kan kat my blog I will do so sbb nak bukak blog nih ngan broadband aka ‘berukband’ nih mak ai susahnyer. So I tulis jer dulu maner I nak n even buat few sections bout diya ker, my frens ker aper je la n bila boleh I will pilih n post maner yg I rasa ok. Pasal gamba2 plak, nak edit gamba kebanyakkan nyer I pakai online software so again masalah internet melanda heheheheh.. so ill edit bila I balik damansara nanti n post everything nanti lah. Lega sikit dapat menulis.. I LOVE my MACB!!! Hehe… ok now I nak try tulis topic lain plak, let me see if I can figureout dia word format in my macB.

Skang diya makin aktif.. she pandai make frens now. Dah improve a lot kat alimkids tu. Kalau dulu dia asik nak main alone jer at one corner but now she make frens.. makin ketengah bila dia ader kawan2 n behave better ngan teacher dia.. lucky diya ader teacher yg very patient with her.. dulu teacher fatin always make separate mterials for diya sbb behaviour diya tak nak mix ngan other kids.. and her tantrum hishhhhh… berguling2 kalau tak dapat aper yang dia nak tuh. But lately dah dua kelas diya behave better. Dia bekenan betul ngan another kid nama syakilla which is much older than her.. syakilla kalau tak salah is 4 years old, very tall n behave very well. Her mom pun alamak lupa nama dia lah; mmg sporting giler and very understanding.. she also rajin help me with diya most of da time. Another kawan diya yg dia bekenan is Salman. I always panggil salman abg sbb dia je yg besar lelaki kat situ. His mom n dad always drop kan dia sbb mom dia kena kerja on Saturdays n dady plak is not allowed in da play group so dady Salman always drop kan dia je n sometime I tolong melayan dia jugak.. budaknyer tak banyak kerenah tapi active! So most of da time diya main ngan salman n killa lah.

Minggu ni diya kena buat topi in her art n craft session. But as usual la mumy lah yg buat kan bukan diya hahahahah… tapi diya pandai kaler2 jugak la.. so all her art work ill keep n kalau muat ill frame kan. Cute sangat ader anak dah mula pandai buat kraft tangan n learn things… diya pun dah pandai sikit pronounce words like elephant=alfun, F sound, and others lah… very cute.. hehehehe..

Diya, mumy LOVE Diya!

ps: i hope ppl tak boring baca my blog kalau takder gambar.. soon ill post pictures too.

Damian Visits Diya in Gombak!!






Such a sweet boy… Damian always calls Diya = Yaya! At 1st he refuses to change his clothes but his mommy said we’re goin to Diya’s house! And he goes; yaya house? Ok and quickly he changes to his jeans n brown shirt! Wow.. hehehehe… babies nowadays pun dah pandai nak melawa bila jumpa kawan dia hhhehhhee..

Later evening they arrived and Damian just woke up from his short car nap, clinging to his mom till he sees Diya.. Yaya.. Yaya!!!! Hehehehhe… and their day starts from there…A whole bag of blocks and soccer balls for each and happily palying together… Damian thought Diya how to do Hi-5!!! Hahahah so funny.. he imitated how his grandma always complaining of back pain, so funny these kids together.

Soon Damian will get a new fren; blood fren hehheee.. mommy is 7 months pregnant! Im sure he will be a great big brother n very protective of da adik and mommy.. even now he will say don’t touch my mommy, or pull mommy’s bag saying mommy’s bag! At da same time hes quite a gentleman tau, take things for diya, share toys, hold her hand and say yaya come?? Hehe..

I LOVE them BOTH!

Not My Green Garden, My mom’s…













Not My Green Garden, My mom’s…

This morning I took some pictures of my mom’s garden here in Gombak while her fulltime PA (the maid hehe..) was organizing the flowers, plucking and sweeping all dried leaves, and lastly water all the plants.. . Wa…. So much of work! She even sings to the trees n plants hahhahaha…. The land is covered with moss (she did gather moss by pieces from anywhere outside she can see; took her almost a year to complete the whole garden.

At the back are of the garden pulak is full with herbs… ader daun kunyit, pokok limau purut and limau kasthuri, cili padi, daun kuchai, ulam raja, daun pandan and even oregano leaves! My mom hardly buy all these daily use herbs. They are selling at supermarket for atleast rm1 per piece! I know coz I always buy mine hehe..

My mom plants all sorts of small flowers with good smell in her garden and her maid always pluck them fresh, put on a huge plate in the house. Bunga kenanga, bunga melur, bunga cempaka and many more. If tak sangat membiak nyamuk im sure she will tanam LILY also hahahahha…

Other than that, my mom ader pokok buah2an pulak. Betik, mangga raja, mangga epal, terung, kacang peas, tebu hitam, buah peria, bendi ishhh.. ader banyak lagi la buah kat garden dia tu, agaknyer kalau ader space lagi mau dia tanam buah tembikai jugak hahahahahah!!!! I guess gardening is her kind of therapy la… if she cant sing or talk to them she will leave the radio on under the shade in her garden!

Since I always buy plants kan; weekends she will bring me some of her money plant so I can relax a bit hhehehehe… if my money plants go bad she will quickly take back home to her 5 Star Hotel for Plants! Hahahahah…
