the thruth is i am not superior in cooking, but i like to prepare delicious and nutritious food for my hubby n my kids. Of every meal, i try to include vegetables, tak kisahlah sup sayur ker, salad ker, timun ker, fresh cerry tomatoes ker, as long as ada sayur..tu menu wajib utk our proper meal. try it ladies and gentlemen, masukkan menu sayur dlm hidangan anda.. sihat dan berkhasiat. kulit pun akan menjadi cantik. nak kulit cantik? banyakkan makan sayur dan buah-buahan.
my home made food for the family... hari tu ade ayam bakar, ayam goreng kunyit, pajeri nenas, menu wajib - sup sayur and my all time tempe goreng makan dgn sambal kicap. sedap sangat tak boleh nak cerita ok?
i initially not a creative person to decorate and platting food, but i start to learn serving food from masterchef malaysia programme. Thank u masterchef... i have improved a lot!
Ni steam vege, carrot, broccoli and bunga kobis. menu mudah, cepat siap, sihat berkhasiat utk seisi keluarga.
haa.... another me and my hubby favourite food - pau kaya, freshly steamed from my little kitchen. berjasa sungguh steamer ni.
ini pula tumis sayur campur from my kitchen, kan cantik bila sayur berwarna-warni, khasiat pun pelbagai..carrot is rich with vitamin A...good for our eyes.
my home made pizza..
the last is the superlicious carrot cake... i bake this cake several times, mmg sedap.
here are some photos that i snapped when i bring my kids to the playground the Lustgarden near our house in Wiblingen Kloster. Most of the time, i can say, everyday... owh tak juga, heheheh when i dont have class or when the weather is good, after taking their afternoon nap, i will bring both kids to play at the garden. i try as best as i can so that our kids can have a happy childhood time.

Lps ni nak bergegas naik bas,turun bas dan tukar bas to my language school, the VH Ulm. semua sekali 2 bas yer tuan2 dan puan2 sekalian, hehehehe- My hubby will take over the duty to look after the kids while i attend deutschkurs. Thank u very much syg! he will fetch the kids in front of the school, we swap and the kids can go back home with their abah. its mommies time to learn, nak gi menimba ilmu dgn org german nih.
oh yes, i didnt bake today since we still have the leftover chocolate cake from yesterday.sekian utk hari ini. lepas kelas nak bergegas balik rumah pula utk tengok football match Germany lawan Italy. Go go Germany!
While ayman & azzan are now on afternoon nap, their mom take this opportunity to bake chocolate cake :)
i have been on baking mode lately, starting on last week with superlicious carrot cake, apple muffin, Tiramisu and today with chocolate cake.super rajin me this week eh??
I would like to share some photos of Ayman and Azzan Playgroup session or widely known in Germany as Mutter-Kind Treffen-
Venue: Wiblingen Tannenplatz Zentrum
Time: 9.00 - 11.30 am (Tuesday and Thursday)
Activities: Playing, singing, dancing, a bit gymnastics sport, breakfast together between moms and kids, arts and crafts activities (drawings/paintings)
The kids age range between 0-4 years old before joining kindergarten
In this session, the kids can play together and moms can have breakfast and small discussion about their kids & other topics - normally there is also a session for promoting the latest Tupperware katalogue, hahahhaaaa. Most of the mothers and kids coming from German, Turkie, Russia etc. So basically we will speak Deustch.
Ayman and azzan really enjoy and like to play the train model from woods (Einsenbahn model), tractors and all the cars. The main reason i send our kids to playgroup is that they can learn on social skills. They can learn on sharing, co-operation and simple routines. At the same time kids enjoy themselves.
Since i joined the moms kids get together session like this, I am thinking to open such a playgroup session once we are back for good to Malaysia one day. Anybody interested to join?
This photo was taken by my abah on our cycling trip to Bodensee.
Yesterday was my hubby's birthday. He turned 30 years old. Semoga Allah panjangkan umur, murahkan rezeki sayang selalu dan berjaya meraih Doctorate in Engineering, aminnn. Belajar rajin-rajin ok syg? Serajin yang mungkin. There is never a short cut to success.
We went for a small picnic yesterday afternoon to Friedrichsau Park, the largest green area in Ulm along the Danube river. Perfect weather with beautiful landscape view, small lakes with ducks and swans, varieties of large green trees plus the orchestra music coming along from the restaurant in the garden, So blissful, alhamdulillah.
With my best friend, my life partner, my love, my hubby
My parents umi and abah will be returning back home to Kuala Lumpur tomorrow's early morning. Feeling so sad, sedih sedih sedihhhh. i will miss them badly :(
Photos taken in Villa Doria, Genova Italy with my loving & supportive parents
We are counting days for ayman and azzan's Tok Abah and Tok Mi homecoming to our small house in Ulm Wiblingen. My parents are coming over for 3 weeks holiday to Ulm, Germany insyaAllah by next Saturday. Semoga Allah memudahkan segala urusan perjalanan Abah dan Umi, aminnn.
Me and nazri have plan many activities with them, namely cycling to Blaubeuren, camping on summer season in the beautiful green landscape of Switzerland and Italian Rivera in Toscana, hiking to Alps, strawberry fruit picking, sight seeing to metropolitan city of Stuttgart and Münich, bringing them to Ayman and Azzan's playgroup session, showing my parents the kids gymnastics activities in Einsingen and many more interesting activities to come.
Another 1 week to come... miss my abah n umi so very much! i requested a lot of home food to bring over..keropok ikan, maggie mee kari, my favourite sos cili kimball, kicap manis cap kipas udang & ikan sepat kering favourite my hubby, rempah sup bunjut adabi for ayman and azzan yg tak boleh makan pedas2 lagi dan mcm2 lagi lah. Orang kampung lah katakan, msian food sentiasa di hati, hahahhaa. so demanded daughter eh??
ok, back to many more of unaccomplished of household chores. later in the afternoon, i want to bring my kids to take a walk at Iller River at the back of our house. Fresh air, beautiful view, perfect moment on our way to Iller River, we can see the Mittelaltermarkt at Wiblingen Kloster, horse farm- ladang kuda, green forest view and clean and clear Iller river. Try it ladies and gentlemen, ada ketengangan yang akan dicari dalan perjalanan.

And.... thank u so very much for the weekends treat on Playmobil Fun Park at Nürnberg on yesterdays trip. Both ayman & azzan enjoyed and have fun at the theme park, - climbing, main air, berakit, boating and lots more activities for children. Eh no, ibu & abah ayman & azzan pun naik rakit sekali, hahahhahha. everybody on the boat.
Most of the time, i'd bring our kids to play outdoor - cycling, playing at the playground near our house, the Lustgarden, kids gymnastics sport at TSV Einsingen, playgroup session at Tannenplatz Zentrum Wiblingen or just walking along the river Danube - Donau.
Fresh air, beautiful landscape, perfect sunny day, the green garden, the blue sky, clean river water flows, its perfect everything ladies and gentlemen. From my personal experience, I can strongly said, nature is the best medicine.
azzan said, peace ibu :)
their favourite - main buaian, baju laju-laju, sampai pokok sena, apa ada dlm baju, sekuntum bunga cina

I love my husband and i love our kids ayman & azzan so very much.
I need them in my life.
I devoted all my love, my life, my energy only to my dear hubby nazri nasir.
I maybe not be a perfect wife or super mom, but i promise to myself and i will try my very best untuk menjadi isteri yg disayangi suami dan disayangi Allah.
Pls guide me ya Allah, i am in a very difficult situation now, please give me the strength to endure everything, aminnn.
Pls meet my new best friend Lita Wulandari from Indonesia :) She just moved from Sydney Australia to Ulm Germany in Sept 2011. I like her attitude & personality since she is just like me, a plain simple, humble, cool and easy going person.
i'm coming home, i'm coming to my home sweet home in Pandan Jaya, KL, Malaysia, tanah tumpah darahku.... I can't believe that i'm here since 2 years ago, being far away from the family. I miss umi, abah, my 4 brothers - along, adin, zahid n zarif.
yes, we are coming home for Ramadhan n Syawal this year insyaAllah. And now i'm counting days to fly back. we bought the tickets 3 months ago, once u booked early then u can afford reasonable n not so expensive flight fare. Malaysia, here we come, Ulm- Frankfurt - Dubai-KLIA- Pandan Jaya, yahooooo :)
I have been neglecting this blog for quite some time. Its not that i'm busy or whatsoever, its just that whenever i opened the computer, i'd end up with all the newspapers, babycentre, bloghopping, facebooking & youtube, opening Ayman & Azzan nursery rhymes. But now, i am thinking to blog frequently esp on my kids activities and our daily updates.
Ayman is now 2 years and baby Azzan is 9 months. Until now, i still teach Ayman to say 'Ibu' but then Ayman would reply.. Azzan, Azzan... hahhahaaaa, he can only say, Abah, Azzan and not Ibu. Yes of course mama. When i ask him to say mama, he would replied mama mama mama.... so sweet of ayman. So I guess, i'd change of calling me from Ibu to mama. Ayman is so super duper active boy and it is sometimes difficult for me to handle 2 boys at one time. While breastfeeding Azzan, Ayman came keep on interrupting me and ask to play with him. Ah.. he is sometimes jealous of baby Azzan. But Azzan is so nice and sweet baby, hardly for me to hear azzan shouting or meragam tak tentu pasal, he is so peaceful baby, alhamdulillah syukur ya Allah.
well, will write again about Ayman & Azzan. i'd better stop since i have to continue with my Deutsch homework, I have class tomorrow and have to finish it by tonight. owh yes, i'm now in the intermediate level of Deutsch- I cannot speak perfectly like local people, but then i have improved a lot, so its my personal achievement, yeayyy. i can speak one foreign language :)
first of all.. let me introduce our new family member, Ahmad Azzan Nasaie Bin Mohd Nazri. Azzan was born on 8th July 2010 0017 (German time) at Universitätsklinikum Ulm. Baby weight - 4.03 kg, length 54 cm. More stories and photos, pls check out my Facebook.
photos taken from Einsingen wheat farm, about 15 minutes walking from our home.
well, today is 7 Ramadhan...hoping its not too late to wish all muslim, salam ramadhan, selamat berpuasa.. allthough, tahun ni saya x puasa, tet - insyaAllah winter nanti ganti balik puasa.
now that my kids are asleep, I could finally have some free time to write something. There are so many things I wanted to do. I want to watch some movies, but NO TIME. I wanted to read newspapers but NOT ENOUGH TIME. I wanted to visit my best friend Abeer, NO TIME AS WELL. The little Ayman keep on approaching me while I'm cooking, breastfeeding baby Azzan, keep 'ah, eh, eh,ah' and therefore I need to attend to ayman in order not to upset him. I have so many unaccomplished things.
My confinements will end few days more.. i'll be back to school this coming september, yeayyy :)
- my hubby keep on complaining, why i didnt update the blog, so the answer is NOT ENOUGH TIME. My day is fully occupied. ok, till next updates.
this post is written with bad mood. i'm very angry and disappointed because my favourite and all time Tupperware Tumbler with Pouch hilang! aaaargh...gerammmmmmmm. everywhere i go, i would surely bring that water bottle.
Lani dah hilang, bikin hatiku panas. org sarawak madah, kamek tgh manas tok eh.. marah + panas jadinya manas! i am currently surveying new Tupperware water bottle in internet. tp walaupun beli botol air baru, ia tidak akan sama dgn botol air lama yg hilang tu :(
really in bad mood - everything i do seems not right. ok, nak sambung study. bye, assalamualaikum
i'm tired, i'm not feeling well, i got headache and i'm feeling very down since yesterday. exam is just around the corner, and yet i did not prepare myself 100%. busy busy weeks. housework, school work, exam, ayman and a lot of stuff to handle.
i am now at 35 weeks of pregnancy, another 4-5 weeks to go. mudah-mudahan semua urusan berjalan lancar, aminnnn. to my baby 2, ibu always pray for u :)
thanks a lot to CARITAS of Bundes Republic of Deutschland for being very generous of their contribution to my second pregnancy :)
Guess what, we receive some amount of $$$$ for Baby 2. syukur alhamdulillah.. Vielen Dank Frau Konz von CARITAS. I did not know about this contribution until my very close classmate, Abeer told me that Bundes Republic would give us some money once we reach 7 months of pregnancy. Murah rezeki baby 2, alhamdulillah. Ini adalah antara usaha mereka untuk menggalakan kelahiran di German.
ok, need to do some work. have a nice weekend everyone.
i'm sick since yesterday :( that makes me cannot attend the class :( i'm tired the whole day, muntah-muntah berterusan sampai lembik satu badan :( i also did not have a good night sleep :( kesian ayman & my hubby, they did not have a proper food since i only lay on the bed
but today, i managed to cook nasi ayam, its ayman and syg's favourite food :) and ayman eats well, dia makan bertambah 2 mangkuk :)
i am now at almost 26 weeks of pregnancy - ada masa ok, ada masa tak berape ok, but it is still manageable, alhamdulillah
"Ketika Cinta bertasbih, Nadiku berdenyut merdu, Kembang -Kempis dadaku, Merangkai bukti cinta, Garis tangan tergambar tak bisa aku menentang Sujud syukur padaMu atas segala Cinta, cinta......."
perfect song, perfect music, perfect movie
owh, how i want to start update on this blog today... i just came back from class and straight away open the Tv and start to watch Ketika Cinta Bertasbih 2. best giler cerita ni sampai nak tgk utk kali ke 3. today i watch it with ayman... hehhehee, no no no, ayman dok sibuk dgn toys dia yg bersepah2 depan Tv while i am concentrating on KCB2.
Ketika Cinta Bertasbih was based from a best selling novel written by Habiburrahman El-Shirazy. thanks to Syg for introducing me this great movie.
ok, need to go. another busy week but still i find the time to watch Ketika Cinta Bertasbih, hehehhehee.. owh, i guess Ulm getting colder... today is -10 degrees. sejuk gilerrr
its winter, its very very verrry cold. today in ulm it shows -8 degrees. hardly for us to see the
light of sun. the sky is dark & gloomy, and in some ways, it will effects our mood for the whole day.
thinking of this, i am feeling very blessed, sangat-sangat bersyukur dgn malaysia. i miss home, miss the perfect weather in malaysia.
alhamdulillah i am feeling much better on this second pregnancy. less tiring, less morning sickness & just few times of krem kaki tgh2 mlm. serius sakit, mcm nak nangis pun ade.
ayman is still dgn sifat manja dia that makes me smile the whole day. of course he has his not in a good mood time but i am adapting to it. mula2 tu mmg stress bila dia asyik nangis aje tp lama2 ok. kalau ayman nangis2, tu tanda dia lapar, penat, x cukup tidur atau nak minum susu atau pun pampers dia basah. i am curious and a bit worried about ayman's weight because he seems very light compared to other babies at his age. nak bg ayman makan ape lg yer??
ok, tu jer lah nak update kali ni. i have no interesting story to share :( shade...
lately i'm feeling very down, maybe because i miss my parents very much, umi and abah in pandan jaya. i miss being at home with my big happy family - abah, umi, along, adin, zahid & zarif.
ya Allah, pls give me some strength, aminnn. i guess i need to call umi to motivate me :)
Semoga tahun baru 1431H ini membawa seribu rahmat & penuh keberkatan kepada kita semua, aminnn.
pada zaman sekolah rendah dulu, saya pagi2 lagi dah bangun nak ikut rombongan sekolah utk perarakan maal hijrah awal muharam di padang merdeka, kuching. seronok sgt masa tu eh.
masuk sekolah menengah pulak, join pertandingan nasyid.. bernasyidlah kami ramai2 atas pentas dewan sekolah. yg best di smsk ni, cikgu2 & student sama2 organize aktiviti. mcm2 lah aktivitinya, tak tersebut..hehehe... sambutan hari guru, maulidur rasul, hari sukan, hari anugerah cemerlang, etc... aaah, bila teringat time2 sekolah dulu, saya jd rindu sgt pd kenangan d smsk, lama tuuu..1996-2000. kawan2 semuanya baik2 dan dah mcm adik-beradik. 5 years in boarding school really makes us so closed.
for our son, ahmad ayman nasaie, ibu mendoakan semoga membesar menjadi anak yg saleh, sihat dan bijaksana, aminnn.
for my husband, all the best in your studies. belajar rajin-rajin syg! serajin yg mungkin! Winner never quits, Quitter never wins! u will always have my full support.
anyway, here is a song of Maal Hijrah for us to ponder...
Satu Muharam detik permulaan, perkiraan tahun Islam Hijrah, perpindahan nabi dan umat Islam, dari Kota Mekah ke Kota Madinah.
Atas keyakinan dan iman yang teguh, kaum Muhajirin dan Ansar bersatu, rela berkorban harta dan nyawa, demi menegakkan Islam tercinta.
Hijrah itu pengorbanan, Hijrah itu perjuangan, Hijrah itu persaudaraan, Hijrah membentuk perpaduan.
Oleh itu mari semua, kita sambut Maal Hijrah, tingkatkan semangat, tegakkan syiar Islam, untuk sepanjang zaman
owh yes, i am on 3 weeks holiday until January... begin to miss my classmates, my best friends, elma, maki, abeer ... in this 3 weeks, i will make use the time to study for theoretical driving test. this is my second time repeating the test! nak cakap susah, x juga...nak cakap senang, mcm susah... its ok, i will study more this time.... tak tahan hidup turun naik bas, tukar tram, tunggu bas masa winter ni...sejuk giler! kalau pass, syukur alhamdulillah..dan kami boleh plan utk beli small second hand car here. tp kalau x pass lg, sampai bila2 laaa kami sekeluarga turun naik bas/ tramp..
yeay, we r heading to Rome, Italy tonight for 4 days and 3 nights holiday. tak sabar ni nak jalan2 historical city of Rome, nanti saya update gambar terbaru kami sekeluarga yer. i always wanted to upload the photos, but semua gambar masih dlm camera lg.. sejak dtg ulm ni, jarang2 dah ambik gambar... semua busy, kecuali ayman.. dia jer yg ade byk masa lapang, rajin tgk kartoon & main2 while we r busying settling things... heheheee
i guess it has been almost a year since i last update on this blog. many things has happened that makes me didn't know how i want to start.
well, our son Ayman has turn 1 year yesterday. i just cant believe how fast time fly. at 1 year, he has 4 front teeths, speak at his own language, campur2 sikit bahasa melayu, english, deutsch & kecek kelate... i noticed his first few words are - dah, entah, tak nak, tata and lalalallalalalaa. everyday i teach him to say 'ibu''ibu'ibu'. but until now, there is no sign of ayman calling me ibu. tak per, i will wait for the time to come. ayman eats and plays a lot. right now, instead of porridge i alternate his food to rice. senang cerita, nasi dgn lauk pauk with meats, fish & vege. ayman suka tepuk tangan bila dengar lagu2 nursery rhymes kat youtube. ayman belum boleh berjalan elok lagi, need to hold at the wall, the chair, the table, the cabinet ayman lani laju naik tangga, tp turun tangga belum mahir lagi. one thing for sure, ayman suka sepah-sepahkan rumah. ok, thats all i can think of for now. till next updates.
Lesson learn from the film- Confessions of a Shopaholic, based on a best selling novel by Sophie Kinsella.
