Taqabbalallahu Minna wa Minkum

Salam Aidilfitri buat semua!

I'm still here..it's my laziness! Kadang-kadang blogging ni macam hate and love relationship :)

Beginning of this year, we've been travelling a lot. From East to South..back and forth. Our second-born get an offered from Sekolah Seni Malaysia Johor Bahru. After a long discussion, we decided that Abang should have a try embark the journey at JB.

It feel surreal, and I'm having a mix feelings about leaving him thousand miles from us. I know he'll be okay. The first few weeks was really tough!. he keep calling and crying, asking to be transfer back but after the pujuk-pujukan, he calm back.

Our life after that change totally. Every school holidays or any holidays, we will travel from East up to South to pick him up and will stop by at Kajang for temporarily nesting. Ayah really looks exhausted but because of anak's dream, I think he got inspired. i feel sorry for him but at the same time the proud expression from him appeared.

We moved back to Selangor after that. So hai-hai, bye-bye to Kota Bharu. The rest of clans said..here we go again! new journey, new home, new friends. To cut the story, early of April, our secondJeddi got an offer from MRSM Tun Abdul Razak, Pekan and he accepted the offer. son had a good time in Skolah Seni Malaysia. He learnt a lot there. His drawing is improve. His confident level is good, and not to forget he can IRON his shirts now!sighhh..This mother is so relief..hehehhehe..

So taknak cakap panjang dah aihhh.. belanja uolls satu pic. his last day at SSeMJ. Selamat hari raya Maaf zahir batin untuk semua!

Haven't got the time to capture the beautiful scenery of spring. Spring is always become my favorite season. During spring buds, blossoms, and other new growth bursts forth throughout the country and new born lambs frolic in the fields just before dusk. Can't wait to see the daffodils, roses, redbud, iris, lilac..gosh! I love it...not-to-forget lavender!

So welcome spring!!

Marble cake! Marble Cake!

Saya suka kek ni. Ringkas dan tak rumit . Am not consider a good baker, just an amateur. A baker for my only family. I suka nak share this recipe so that mommies yang lain also can try it and serve it to the family.

baking ni bukanla I punya forte' , tapi I suka buat tatkala jiwa I tak begitu tenteram..pendekata bila stress. Bila baking ni, rasa ketenangan dan focus tu mendalam. Dalam cracked the eggs, putarkan doh, dan bau aroma cake tu..arghhh..hmmm..satu kepuasan. So, no mor rmbling, here it is.. one of my favourite recipe. Memang I selalu guna recipe ni and it's usually turns good.

BAHAN-BAHANNYA :-)
240 g  butter
10 g ovallate
4 biji telur gred A
100 g gula halus
240 g tepung naik sendiri (*digaul rata dan diayak)
60 ml susu segar
1 camca teh esen vanilla
20 g serbuk koko

CARA MEMBUATNYA :-)
1. Panaskan oven pada suhu 175C, lenser tin kek dengan sedikit mentega, alas dasar tin dengan kertas    minyak (jika guna bund pan, sapu mentega rata2 pada bahagian dalam tin kek dan tabur sedikit            tepung, ketuk keluar lebihan tepung). Ketepikan.
2. Putar mentega dan ovallate hingga rata, masukkan gula halus dan putar hingga putih, masukkan           telur satu persatu sambil terus memutar hingga kembang. Jarak masa untuk sebiji telur ialah 1             minit.

Classic Butter Cake!

Hai, 

Lately I suka makan cake butter. Just simple butter cake. Agak susah nak jumpa resepi yang boleh I betul-betul suka. So kali ni I jumpa resepi ni and really likes it. My kids also loves it. They more prefer this kind of cake compared to other fancy cake. I guess the simplicity of the cake itself makes us fall in love.

So I nak nak share resepi ni dengan y'all ..by the way I memang suka guna butter SCS ni. It more buttery and tastes so yumm.. Other brand I used either Tatura or Anchor.. tapi tu semua brgantung pada taste masing-masing.. Buttercup alone pun okay as long it suits your taste bud.

Kalau tak rasa sunyi jek kampung Lincoln ni. cuaca sekrang tak menentu, panas, hujan,panas, hujan. Earthquake aftershock pun masih terasa sekali sekala, paling kuat takat ni 5.2 mag.

Beberapa hujung mggu lps, kami saja2 jln ke Lyttleton,bandar pelabuhan yang terletak lebih kuang dlm 45km dari rumah. Saja ronda petang2, my suami kata he needs a break. Kami pegi ke satu jetty,Governor Bay, Lyttleton. Cantik!! kebetulan pulak masa tu ada org tgh capture wedding pictures, so lucky us la kan, boleh tgk pengantin..bukan kenal pun saja suka tgk org cantik.

Aku ni mulala berangan nk suruh incik suami tangkap gambar mcm tu jugak,then baru teringat, haishh takmola, rosak gambar..dengan kelebaran badan macam daun sireh skrg ni erkkk..tak sggp nk tgk.sudahnya anak2 la jadik model..bukan nak pun bdk2 ni.. apa2 pun hari tu mmg santai dan relax..seronok..
