so many things happened in between and i am not that kind of person who like to write everything in a book ... i have all kept inside my memory box ... easy .. things i want to forget - it'll delete by itself, things i want to remember or recall - it'll appear somehow..

6th day of Ramadhan

alhamdulillah... we are already in 6th days of Ramadhan Al mubarak...syukur.:-)

nothing much happening just the normal routines except cepat pancit...lol .. i mean easily got tired..

the meals for break-fast also very simple but tasty .. so far, i have not visited any gerai Ramadhan yet ... have not bought any outside food yet for berbuka - all home cook...:-) puas hati - cepat licin je pinggan..:-D

insyaAllah...this weekend i start bake cookies for orders .. alhamdulillah - banyak juga order yang masuk .. harap2 dapat melakukannya - i'm lone ranger - no helper or whatsoever but i just hope and pray hard tht i can manage all...insyaAllah.

I present to you .. the OLD and the NEW OVEN

the old and the new

the new

the old

Tak ada yang lama maka tak wujud yang baru .... mengorak selangkah dalam percaturan menjadi bidang masakan sebagai menjana pendapatan tapi yang lebih penting minat yang mendalam terhadapnya cuma kekadang masa membatas kemahuan dan keinginan ....

yang lama...telah banyak berjasa, dgnnya lah aku sampai di sini - masakan ku sampai kepada mereka - pendapatan terjana kerananya ...

yang baru... sudah mula mengorak langkah - sudah mula menabur jasa - sudah peka dengan suasana ...

gabungan lama dan baru .... bakal menggegar pasaran - mengejar permintaan - memenuhi impian ... INSYAALLAH ...:-D

It has been quite some time...

i have been absent here for quite some time ya .... not tht nothing to share or upload - it's just tht i was too occupied with my routines and extra routines..plus my baking activities and orders ... i am moving in small scales but once the order came - i just need another pair of hands ... anybody..?? :-D

now, RAMADHAN AL MUBARAK just around the corner - pretty excited about it ... my resolution this time is to do the tarawikh prayer as often as possible ... and read the Holly AL-Quran as much as possible...

hmmm... i have already distributed samples of cookies to my sisters and friends and the responds were good - even i have few orders for this coming weekend and so is my cakes ... i need to bake at least 6 cakes for this Friday for my sister's friends ... and it's all MARBLE CHEESE CAKE ...:-) talk of the town ...

oh ya, recently i bought new oven :-) courtesy frm my beloved hubby - he's been very supportive and understanding .. infact he had ordered quite a number of cakes from me for his functions or activities tht he involved ... great huh ...? :-) i also bought another mixer for speedy preparation..

Family Bowling Tournament...:-)

little sister busy counting the points

some of the prizes

my little girl ....

Posed before the play-off

Last weekend i have been baking non stop with less sleep - as a result whole body was exhausted and what makes it worst - i lost my voice - really - i had quite bad cough but didnt expect to lose my 80% voice... my families made fun of my sound of voice - "rockers....babe ... boleh wat konsert rock le beb "... adehhhh... sabau je lah.

Last Sunday also we had family bowling game at Ampang Bowl Parkson Grand... even though at tht time i was not feeling well but with high spirit - i played along ... but most of the time the ball went straight to the ditch ... so i was the JUARA LONGKANG then..........:-( hahahaha

Demam dah berakhir

uiks...lamanya tak update kat sini....alahai....sibuk punya pasal - semua takda masa. SO, finally SPAIN WON...!! yeayyyy... just as i expected and my instinct never failed me this time - this WORLD CUP 2010. Just when almost everybody predicted tht BRAZIL or ARGENTINA or GERMANY to name a few of world class football team to win this 2010 WROLD CUP, my instinct tells me tht ... they wud be upset ... my instinct says otherwise ... and it came out true. so... dun speak too soon people say... hehhehehe.

back to my cooking and baking .... i had few cake orders and at the same time to prepare hariraya biscuits samples ... well also done/finished ... just need to touch up here and there as this year will be different frm previous years - i wud expect more orders frms frens and families...and i am all alone - ayoyoyo ... can do it or not - there's the challenge...:-)

hari dah masuk hari kedua persekolahan selepas 2 minggu bercuti. tapi aku di sini semakin malas dan lemau je rasa...:-( bila lama dah tak ke dapur dan masak kek or biskut...ini lah jadiknya...lemau jer...adehhhh

kali terakhir aku masak sesuatu adalah hari ahad baru-baru ni... teringin nak makan kek pisang, search on internet for the recipe...terjumpa resipi BANANA BREAD kat blog sapa ntah...dah lupa...hmmm....mmg penyakit pelupa aku nih dah menjadi2 ... kena makan kismis banyak2 ni kan...? one thing .. i dun like raisins ... betull...aku tak suka raisins/kismis ... tapi kalau resepi kena guna raisins...terpaksa la aku ngikut...

resepi namanya BANANA BREAD ... bancuhannya seakan kek pisang tapi bila dimasak - strukturnya tak seperti kek pisang biasa ... ermmm... roti.. lebih kepada roti dan ianya agak padat tapi sedapppp.... i guna pisang emas yang dah masak ranum...so u can imagine rasa manis roti pisang nih...lagipun ianya menggunakan gula perang/brown sugar saja...

LANGKAWI - PART III

LANGKAWI - PART II

The last time we were in the 'Land of Mahsuri' ( as i called it..) was 5 years ago - at that time my little dotter - syafiqah was not even in the picture yet..and farid, the younger son was only 2 years plus...
and last weekend, we came back to visit the land again....and boyyy...what a tremendous development and changes Langkawi has been... we stay at the resort only - situated along PANTAI CENANG... my kids don't really like the resort room - well...we used to stay at the at least 4 stars hotel or apartment if we were on vacation...but i told them - we could use the extra money on shopping and site seeing and food ;-)
... anyway, i noticed Langkawi not that cheap anymore as it used to be last 5-8 years ago... well, it follows with the development though....
the second day we're at the island - it was raining heavily in the morning towards about noon ... so, we had to stay back in the room till the rain stops...
hmmmm...then we did our shopping and cable car trip...

Rinduuuuuuuuu.....and trip to Langkawi

memang sememangnya rindu...!! rasa lama tak memblog ... like so many stories want to update - i was away for about 1 week... bercuti :-)
normally we never plan if we want to go for a holiday or vacation ... never - that was what happened last week ... when suddenly hubby asked to check flight to LANGKAWI - then i knew - it's happened again....hehehehhe
on Monday, June 14, 2010 ... we headed to LANGKAWI by land ...phewwww...i saved few hundreds bucks on that (not worth to spend so much on air ticket for six of us) ...baik guna utk shopping kan...kan...kan... and that's what i/we did...:-)

here are some of the photos of the trip (can't upload so many here...) ME AND MY FAMILY

STRAWBERRY BREAD RECIPE

1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter

3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated white sugar

3 large eggs

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 cups (260 grams) all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt

1/2 cup (55 grams) toasted walnuts or pecans, coarsely chopped

1 1/2 cups chopped fresh strawberries

Strawberry Bread: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and place the oven rack in the middle position. Butter and flour (or spray with a non stick vegetable/flour spray) the bottom and sides of an 8-cup loaf pan (9 x 5 x 3 inch) (23 x 13 x 8 cm). Set aside.

Place the walnuts (or pecans) on a baking sheet and bake for about 8 minutes or until brown and fragrant. Remove from oven and let cool completely before chopping coarsely. Set aside.

In the bowl of your electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the butter until softened (about 1 minute). Add the sugar and continue to beat until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture (in three additions) and sour cream (in two additions) alternately, starting and ending with the flour. Mix only until combined. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries and walnuts.

Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake about one hour, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Place on a wire rack to cool and then remove the bread from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature. This bread can be frozen.
