Welcome to reality

Assalamualaikum & good day people

I have always wanted to write on my life updates but have been delaying, delaying & delaying. We never realize how precious little time we have in a day until its gone, well... that is life.

I'm almost back

See the title, almost...?? I am now in 19 weeks of pregnancy, still in morning sickness fever, throwing up like a monster... ingatkan bila dah end of first trimester ni akan berkurang simpton2 pening - mual - muntah2 sampai lembik satu badan dan terus tersadai, tp rupa-rupanya dtg lagi! but going thru for almost 4 months, so far, its bearable, alhamdulillah

These few days have been very exciting and refreshing.

On last Saturday (26/08), we went to kak fiza & abang kamal's house in Delft for birthday party celebration of their beautiful daughter- Adrianna.

Before going to sleep on friday night, I searched at mesra resipi, resipi.net - looking for dessert recipe. Have been trying to suit the recipe with the ingredients that i have in the kitchen, but seems like getting me nowhere :( blurrrrr

so dlm tgh pening2 fikir nak bawa manu ape ke rumah kak fiza esok, i quickly decide to prepare my hubby's favourite food - agar2 pandan (^_^) senang aje recipe ni...

Agar2 pandan

Masakkan agar2 dengan 5 cawan air & gula sampai mendidih.
dlm masa yg sama, ambik daun pandan dalam 10 helai mcm tu, potong kecil2 dan blend dgn air.
tapiskan pati pandan td dan masukkan ke dalam rebusan agar2.
bila rebusan agar2 td dah mendidih, cepat2 masukkan santan ( about 2 tin of coconut milk).
lps tu kacau sikit2 dan tunggu hingga mendidih.
bila dah mendidih tu, boleh laaa disejukkan

since my hubby x suka makanan yg manis2 ni, i try as possible to reduce the consumption of sugar in cooking.
Unfortunately, once we woke up the next morning --- slps agar2 itu disejukkan mlm td... daaaaaaaaa, manis bangat agar2 ni eh... malu pun ade nak bawa gi rumah kak fiza
wuaaaaaa, ni mesti sbb buat tgh2 malam masa tunggu nak masuk isyak.... kol 12pm lebih baru start rebus agar2! me yg makin lazy aaaaaaa
i feel very sorry for him,
kesian kat hubby, makan agar2 manis- next time sarah akan kurangkan gula, ok syg??

Reading mood



At home, if I'm not in front of my laptop I'd be carried away with Sophie Kinsella's - "Confessions of a Shopaholic"- Sometimes I was carried away too much that I slept 2 times in between reading one chapter. I'm not into reading ... but Sophie's shopaholic series are amazingly hilarious! (thumb's up).

I just finished reading one of her books - The Undomestic Goddess.
Berguling2 atas sofa dok baca novel ni, best sgt2! berangan diri ni jadi mcm Samantha Sweeting!

The story of a girl who needs to slow down,
To find herself,
To fall in love.
And to discover what an iron is for...


~~ Synopsis of the story~~ (quoted from www.randomhouse.com)


Samantha is a high-powered lawyer in London.
She works all hours, has no home life, and cares only about getting a partnership.
She thrives on the pressure and adrenalin.
Until one day, she makes a huge mistake that will wreck her career.

She walks right out of the office, gets on the first train she sees, and find herself in the middle of nowhere.
Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she is mistaken for the interviewee housekeeper and finds herself being offered the job.
They have no idea the've hired a Cambridge educated lawyer with an IQ of 158.
Samantha has no idea how to work the oven, she can't sew on a button, bake a potato, or get the ironing board to open.

But gradually, she falls in love with her new life in a wholly unexpected way.

How she takes a deep breath and begins to cope - and finds love - is a story as delicious as the bread she learns to bake.

Will her old life ever catch up with her? And if it does…will she want it back?

Well, I think this book has stayed with me in most happy ways.

Lps jer habis baca buku ni, i pun cerita laa balik kat hubby & dia terus response,
"citer ni mengarut, khayalan, x masuk akal - zaman skrg mane ade lawyer nak kahwin dgn gardener" hahhahaa.... syg jealous laaa tuh. anway, keep on writing Sophie! ~~~

banyak lg nak citer ttg The Undomestic Goddess ni, tp hubby selalu menyakat saya, dia sengaje jer nak sakitkan hati ... masa saya tgh syok baca ni laaa dia dok bising2 kata,

"Sophie Kinsella tu dah kaya raya, kiter apa dapat?? Gi baca quran tu, dapat pahala."
eeei, tahu laaa yg saya ni dah lama jg x baca quran... dok asyik Sophie, Sophie, Sophie....

Aaaaaaaaaaaaah, gerammmmmmmmmmm betul dgn hubby saya ni.
apapun, saya tetap sayangkan hubby! he always makes me smile, dia selalu menghiburkan saya. ade saje idea dia utk buat saya ketawa....:D

ok need to pen off. I'll post about our first anniversary some other day okie. It was celebrated 2 weeks ago on Monday, July 14.

Have a lovely day people.
