for no reason,actually...

i may forgive,but certainly dont do the forget thingy any good...

thus,suck up ur guts and mind ur words and actions, for im good at remembering stuffs...especially the one that brings heartache to my vulnerable lil' heart...

nobody is perfect,hence the word 'improve' ...

till then...

in between all the chaos...

...i somehow tried to find time for me to read,any kind of books will do...as long as i can get my mind off of all the chaos around me,for a while...its like my own kind of 'me' time..

i usually read during the munchkins's nap time,or in the wee hour,when i cant get myself to sleep..i figured that im better off reading rather than wasting my time tossing and turning on the bed,while staring helplessly at the ceiling...hmmm...it happens all the time,actually...will that means that i have a sleeping problem,or something?

and by having said that,im done with this...

and now im starting on this one,and i really hope its worth my time...rumour has it that Tom Hanks's planning to turn this into a movie,wow!! gotta finish it before they starts filming,hehe...

till then...

a good start...

finally,i got my hands dirty again,hehe...a yummy kind of dirty,baking that is...been too hooked up with the sewing lately,thus its kinda make sense (well,at least to me ;p) to put my Bake 'IT' Up into a halt mode...until i was pushed by none other than my very-good-with-her-persuasion-skill-mom,hehe...she talked to me into it till i said yes,involuntarily i supposed...but,love her still,very much.. ^_^ i love u,mommy...muahss...


actually,something happened to me last year,that has killed the passion for baking in me,literally...but i'll keep it to myself,and my close knit to know :(


anyway,after much hesitation - well,cant blame me ;p i managed to pull it through and crossed the finish line with flying colors,haha!! pathethic lil' me,aight?? well,after what ive gone thru,i supposed ive bounced back gracefully - to my standard la kannn...pat on my back for having the guts to do it ;) and thanx to my mom as well, muchas gracias,mommy...


so,without further ado,presenting my first red velvet for this year...

aint it pweeeettty?? ;p so,its official,Bake 'IT' Up is finally back in business..

till then...

the calling...

still young,at only 29 years old and only 4 years of wonderful marriage,she lost her dear husband,after merely two weeks in coma after he slipped and fell in a rain,on his way back from his work,on his first day reporting duty at a new workplace...

now,she has to face the world,alone,while raising their 2 years old daughter,who has no idea whats happening to her darling father...

to my dear cousin,all i can say is be strong for Allah knows what He's doing...

and i know its easier said than done,but just know that u are not alone,the family will always be by your side,all the way...so,chin up for our dear Hana...

till then...

coloring princess...

besides ballet,this lil' girl of mine lurves to color,with capital 'C'...like seriously!! and lets not go about her collections of coloring books and puzzles,pheww...she even makes us go an extra miles by putting her in a contest ;p

winning asides,the experience that count... besides,she need to explore more coloring skills, i.e. shading and what not...hmm,an art class perhaps? *wink at daddy* ;p

till then...

who would have thought...

bought this baby on our recent trip to cameron last year,but,at that time this pokok cili of mine was not as big as this,and mind u,with less chilies,of coz...but look at it now,aint it pwettyyy?? cant wait to harvest the pedas-licious and cute-lil-chilies-of-mine... ;p

guess,my hand was not so panas after all...looking forward for more plants on my herb garden ;)

will reveal soon,once ive secured a lemon grass,limau purut and etc...

till then...

picnic 'kampung' style...

every time we went back to my hometown,we somehow, as much as possible try to bring the munchkins to my favourite sungai,for a picnic...thus,this trip is no different...

my babah has reminded us that it hasnt been raining in days,thus,to expect less water and the keruh part but we're determined to go.talk about being persistence huh?? ;p so,after my mom's done with the cooking - hey,i do help too...by watching,and accompany her at the kitchen,of coz... off we go ...

safely home...

yeay! we're home...

we made or way to jitra last saturday for my cousin's wedding,then off to my mom's place to stuff our tummy to the fullest... frankly,this time around,its all about food,food and more food...my food conquest has never be this succesful,haha!!

to my delight,got a chance to chow down the best 'bihun sup' and 'kuew teow pak mud' at jam besaq,sp...perghh!! happy tummy,happy me...hence,the bolat face...ive the whole clan 'compliment' my new look ;p but i dont mind,coz my tummy filled with yummeh foods.. ;)

yup,ive gained a few pounds lately...and u can see straight at my face,coz it looks like all the 'lemak' in me refused to spread to the other part of my body... ;p

our so-called date nite... ;p

man,what can i say...it was fun!! what with all the energetic performances,viewed from the best seats in town,i reckon ;p but what count the most was my partner on that nite,none other than my significant half,my darling ben...and not to forget,my dear SIL,ayu and ben's cousin,sheila (ala2 bodyguard giteww.. ;p)

gazillion thanx to my dearest mommy and kak aween for the tixs,appreciate so much... ^_^ btw,im so 'in' with any other future event,hehe...juz count me in,and i'll be there,and ben,plus ayu... ;)

but all of this wont be happening if its not for the people that really make it happen,and in this case,its my banting's troop - mak,abah and my dearest BILs - didi and apiq...oh man,i owe u guys,BIG TIME!! we could never repay u guys enough...especially my two BILs whose sacrifice their nite out juz to help my PIL mind the munchkins....awww,aint it sweet?? ^_^

ben and i rarely leave the munchkins with both of us not around ( which is only happens twice,as i can recalled - and that is when i delivered yaya and nana,thats the extend of it... )...its always either me or ben to look over them,thus,this is kinda first for them...and us too... ;p hence,the hesitance...but,knowing that they'll be in a good hand,and we're sooo in need of a quality 'us' time,i braced the reality in style - went for AJL,haha!!

all in all,we had fun...even when we had to cease the idea of staying for the post-party,reason being - there's a black-out at my PIL's house 30mins prior to the result's announcement,hence the rush...we went back straight right hafiz belted our his winning song,barefooted ;)...i could imagine both my mak+abah 'kipas-ing' our munchkins like satay haha!! yup,for the love of the cucus, they willing to do anything... ^_^

anyway,a nite sans the kids kinda fun...but,that didnt stop us from sms-ing the BIL's thru out the event,haha!! pathetic,huh? well,thats us... ;p

till then...

my triple A's...

xoxo,

mommy...
