Cookies Choc Chip

Good morning

You know, I always promised myself to go back to bed after Subuh prayer during the weekends, but you know what, I just realised, the good weekend morning is the only ME time :)

Tenangkan tengok si kecik ni tido.. kalau jage adoiii... tak duduk diam..

Well, actually I have planned along with my sister to hunt for baju raya today. You know what, hubby bought himself and the son 4 pasang baju melayu.. Damn.. it gonna be crazy for me to match those colors and not to forget the money that im gonna spend!!

Since my early childhood, most of the time, my parents only bought ready made baju raya and that is the reason I have never sent any kain to tailor up until now.. heheh i mean seriously, wanted to do this year, together with naz, but at the end, I decided to just buy the ready made baju raya.. But i strongly feel, ready made baju raya is much much cheaper compared to tailor made baju raya. just imagine kain je dah berape kan, upah jahit lagi. I understand that plain baju raya can goes up to RM120 (or is it even more??) and if you add more beads or whatsoever it can goes to few hundreds.. man, tak mampu i..

And thats the reason I always adore those who loves sewing especially younger generation nowadays susah nak cari, one that i know is my own cousin - Kak Didik and her skills getting better and better. You can view her artwork here Oh ya, my mum pun pandai jugak. Langsir, cadar, baju kurung, baju melayu semua bagai kat rumah tu dia jahit. My father has once told me that my mum sewed baju melayu for him during hari raya way back during their Uni days in US. kan kan.. and me on the other hand, saya adalah mempunyai tangan yang sangat keras dan tidak berseni..

I enrolled to sewing class before, but only half way since I couldnt find my passion on it. Nak masuk kan jarum belum tentu pass 100%, but hehe Allah jadikan jodoh kite bersebab, salah satu sebab nyer, Encik Emran boleh jahit, so there you go, ape bende yang terkoyak, dialah tukang jahit nyer.. and his skills is far better than mine ok.. Sian dia, berape kali mintak bile i nak jahitkan baju untuk dia.. :) Kite jahit kat kedai je lah yer.. Nasib baik lah mak mertua I bukan tukang jahit ke ape, hahahaha..Kalau tak malu besar la kan..

So, ade satu blog ni, dia pun suke jait jugak, and it looks so lovely with her fresh ideas. One of the item that I like is the hp pouch, why?? because i dont have any.. haha, ye ye iphone saya adalah togel begitu sahaja tanpa berbaju.. I bought one before but later dia punya zip dia terputus  and until now I didnt buy any hp pouch to replace it. :) If only i could grab her hp pouch :) Yes yes, this is part of the contest that Dayang is organized.. Click here for more details..

Dan apakah ini, ini adalah chocolate chip yang saya buat semalam bukan untuk raya, tapi untuk berbuka puasa.. Raya kuih tunjuk jer :) Tak sempat nak simpan, sorang sorang dok datang dapur melahap.. Tak pe lah memang buat untuk makan pun.. Yang ni i tak malu mengaku, sedap :) but thinking of nak goreng groundnuts tu.. aahh... Ada orang nak order tak untuk raya., tapi harge tak tau hahahha

Candid - Giveaway Contest

Sorry for the non stoppable contest entry, well I could not resist the temptation of not joining the contest, since most of it based on luck and the best part, no slogan is required like any normal contest organized by reputable Company.

So, Zieha - http://zieha-myworld.blogspot.com/2009/08/candid-giveaway-contest.html is organizing her first giveaway in celebrating her birthday, but err not to sure yang ke berape.. heheh tak announce pun Zieha hehehe :) What she wants us to is to post a candid picture and yes it is quite challenging to search for Candid pictures since most of our pictures are safely save in external hard drives which I seriously dont know where Mr. Hubby keeps it.

And finally, I found this picture taken at my mum's friend Hari Raya open house last year. Ape tu, itu adalah ABC - Ais Batu Campur, ya da ya da.. I know it is NO NO NO ice for Emir but tak pe lah once a while, I allow him to taste that another sweet Malaysian delicacy.. and yes, kiterang tak posing pun -- eh you think Emir nak posing macam ni, tak de nyer.. Actually this is one of all time my favorite pictures sebab 1st it is a candid and secondly it shows the bonding between the mother and son..

So Zieha ade can tak??

On a related note, err ade orang tanye, ape resipi chocolate tu. err malu jugak sebenarnyer, sebab tak de lah sedap mane pun, sebab main belasah je kan, my sister said, its too big for a chocolate and muak sikit.. so kalau kate anda nak buat silalah campurkan cocoa butter sikit and tambah fresh milk banyak banyak sikit..  Ini adalah resipi belasah saya ok, please assist me as well if you encounter any missing ingredients

310 gm chocolate

30gm shortening

1/4 cup of fresh milk

few almond nuts ker, ape2 nuts la - ni masuk mase dalam mould tu, care nak masuk, tekan gune garpu or sudu masuk dalam chocolate, kalau tak nanti dia timbul..

ok.. good luck :)

My first homemade chocolate..

Sebelum sebelum tu, lepas ni, setiap kali nak bukak entry, I akan masuk satu contest.. alang alang kan.. seronok seronok.. 

http://chocville.blogspot.com/ is organizing an online contest to name her new website. No slogan is required, what you do, you just need to suggest the best name to describe Chocville as a whole. So here is my suggestion..

i suggest www.1-choc.com (sebab 1choc dah ade orang amik domain ni)

name nyer pun senang nak ingat, nak gambar kan malaysia, ape tah lagi kan, nak nak sekarang ni semua pasal 1 malaysia, 1 ni pulak means yang terbaik, tercanggih, so sesuai la untuk choc you yang paling best kan (hehe kaki kipas kene lah ade sikit).. budak budak pun senang sebut and I bet orang pun senang nak ingat.. yer tak tuan-tuan dan puan-puan..

1-choc pun i rase not only keMalaysia-an but commercial name pun ade jugak.. Ok tak??

Ok back to reality..

Over la saya ni, tak tau nape makin rajin pulak bertukang-tukang dekat dapur.. Shh.. orang kate, orang rajin jangan ditegor. :D

Semalam masak habis awal, so dalam hati memang dah bercadang-cadang nak buat chocolate, tapi tak tau bile, so there you go.. Tengok tengok chocolate ade, shortening memang ade, fresh milk pun ade, tapi cocoa butter tak de.. 

Tapi tak pe, belasah je lah.. Resipi, errr main tibai sendiri.. so nak kasik cover sedap, I letak almond nuts and pistachio huhu..

Tapi banyak kene practise lagi.. but as a first timer with my own recipe, I think I am quite satisfied..

Hubby said -- "ok ok, ade rase chocolate" hehehe.. 

Note to myself: Jangan diusik-usik chocolate tu, nanti dia tak cantik bile dah sejuk..

Contest

Just for fun..

Anyway, another home made cupcakes, huhu, ingat balik keje tak sempat..pergi kedai lagi, sampai rumah pun dalam 530 macam tu, tapi disebabkan mendapat gen my mum yang sangat cepat di dapur, walaupun saya still agak slow jugak, i managed to squeeze my time cooking the main menu (pegedil, sayur and ikan bakar) + butter cuppies with chocolate rice, siap sempat settle semua by maghrib.. hehhe

Tapi paling best, dalam kepala dok pikir, sape nak makan, im sure Encik Husband pun dah jemu, hehe kalau dia ambik pun setakat dua tiga, err amik nak sedapkan hati bini dia.. yang i pulak sampai macam ade 10 orang kat rumah ni..

Selamat berpuasa...

Salam Ramadhan kepada semua. Moga-moga Ramadhan kali ini diberikan lebih keberkatan kepada kita untuk lebih dekat kepada Nya.. Jangan puasa jer, tapi bende lain tak buat.. No no no :)

Sebelum itu, saya minta maaf kepada semua isi rumah saya, termasuk adik adik saya, jiran jiran saya dan sesiapa sahaja yang berdekatan dengan saya memandangkan saya tengah menggemukkan mereka dalam bulan puasa ini. Ya, saya tengah crazy buat cupcakes :)

Strawberry cupcakes

Note: Tidaklah jangan lepas ini letak apa-apa buah atas cupcakes sebab juice dia buat cupcakes tu cair, nak nak bile atas melted fondant ni.. Emir sangat suke ini, ditelannya sepinggan

Chocolate cupcakes.. Its not burning yeah.. itu adalah kerana saya letak extra extra melted chocolate.. Emir sangat suke ini.

Percubaan dengan Vanila topping dengan bantuan Emir..

Dan ini adik adik saya kate paling sedap, Blueberry cupcakes... Yang tukang letak bunga bunga itu adalah dengan bantuan anak teruna saya..

Dan ini adalah percubaan saya mase first day Ramadhan, Nasi Bukhari gaul sekali dengan daging kambing, hmmm.. :)

Adakah saya menggemukkan mereka? hehe bukan mereka saya juga :p

Tahun lepas bulan lapan, dekat rumah jer..

kenapa pilih foto nie erk.....

Mase ni baru je balik dari Senior School Asia Pacific, 4 hari pergi, dan pertama kali lah tinggalkan Emir dengan bapaknya, so mase balik tu, Encik Suami asyik asyik cakap nanti balik rumah jangan marah. Mule mule ingat, sure rumah macam dah tunggang langgang, so tawakal je la kan.. sekali masuk rumah, rupenyer ruang tamu dah dijadikan tempat shooting pulak. Penat penat pun terpaksa lah berposing huhuhu... First time rumah jadi tempat photoshoot, Emir pulak sibuk nak jadi photographer, so gambar yang nampak dia tengok camera sangat la sikit peratusan nyer, dan ini adalah antara gambar-gambar yang berjaya...

CONTEST BAJU RAYA SEDONDON

Here I am, leaving my son's behind, not really actually, he is playing the ooh-aah games at PlayHouse Disney Asia website. i thought wanna fold all the one week clothes, but hehe, hubby's laptop is so irresistable kan..

So, I browse and blog hopping one blog after another, and I found one interesting online contest from iburikazz, ape lagi la kan, saya kan hantu contest.. Eh, anyway, iklan sikit, I did organize my first mini contest at my other blog Ibu Emir Shopping Centre but the funny thing is, only one is joining, so its look like, she is gonna win hahah :)

Tukar bahasa pulak..

Ini adalah gambar saya, suami saya dan anak kesayangan saya Emir. Mase ni Emir baru nak masuk 5 bulan. ni raya tahun 2006. Mase ni kat rumah mak sedara Encik Emran dekat Melaka. Cermin ni, Encik Emran kate cantik kalau nak ambik gambar, so kiterang pun ambik lah, tengok-tengok, saya pun suke bile amik gambar..

Dan selepas itu, kejadian tak diingini telah berlaku, di mana cermin ini telah menjadi mangse kepada kami bertiga, kire macam dah ditakdirkan cermin ni jadi trademark kiterang setiap tahun. hahah, dan maksudnya kiterang tak boleh laa tak beraya rumah mak sedara Encik Emran heheheh

Yang ni pulak mase raya tahun 2007, Emir dah setahun 4 bulan macam tu.. mase tu semua sedonondon hijau :), Emir rambut dia dah start panjang..

dan ini Raya tahun 2008, kali ni bukan si Emir yang rambut panjang, bapak dia pulak yang berambut panjang.. biru lagi baju ny

Tahun 2009, nak cari baju color lain pulak lah, actually ade kain color hijau, tapi malas nak pergi hantar tailor, kemungkinan saya nak pergi hunt baju color coklat pulak.. :) Ok tak Encik Emran..

Perasan tak ape persamaan semua gambar -gambar ni, saya mesti belah kiri, Papa mesti kene pegang kamera dan ibu mesti kene dokong Emir..

Tapi yang paling penting, kiterang harap harap la, jangan lah Mak Lang Emran pergi buang cermin ni, hehehe, kalau tak haaa habislah trademark kiterang..
