I'm now the Temporary house helper as my house helper went back Indonesia for Raya.

Back to hometowm 3 days.. finally, i got the chance to eat my "Kam puang" noodles with "bie nvk " in laksa soup.

wailooll... sooo nice meh!!

Today, my 2nd & little sister finally back.

The Vocal People

one word.. INCREDIBLE!!

Doriyaki

Not sure where I bought before, but this time round I decided to make my own one.

Why suddenly wanna make Doriyaki leh??

not because I watch Doraemon cartoon, but because of my rean bean paste!

I bought a pack of red bean paste coz I plan to make moon cake..

but, after seeing the method... my head grow one inch bigger..

It just take so much kung fu to make it.

so, I use my red bean paste to make other things.

when I'm really free, only i'll make my moon cake.

Well, Doriyaki is healthy because no oil or butter or margerine..

(but still will grow fat if eat too much,

no, i should say face will grow rounder like the doriyaki shape! )

If you notice, Jusco also got sell, but RM1 for one. Really expensive!!

we made our own, u can add as many red bean paste as u want,

or u wanna change to green bean, yellow bean or blueberry jam or strawberry jam

or kaya or peanut butter + chocolate (sounds like waffle)

most important girls, when u become mommy next time, u can make this for ur children, then they can bring to school and will avoid eating those junk food.

Then your children will be very happy to school.

ok, I think I've crapped too much..let's enjoy the show..

铜锣烧的制作材料：

主料：蛋3个,砂糖50g,牛奶5大匙,蜂蜜2小匙,面粉180g(约16大匙),泡打粉/1小匙。红豆沙400g。

工具：滤网,电动搅拌器,橡皮刀,平底不沾锅。

1)砂糖用滤网过筛备用。把蛋全部放入盆里，用电动搅拌器打至粗泡，分三次加入砂糖，打至变白且完全打发。

2)加入牛奶与蜂蜜轻轻拌匀。

3)混合面粉与泡打粉过筛之后加如蛋糊中,用橡皮刀快速拌勻（用左右与上下方向拨拌，不要用画圈式，以免出筋）

4)覆盖保鲜膜，静置松弛半小时

5)平底锅加热,舀入一杓面糊(约1大匙),用中小火煎到面糊表面产生很多气泡,然后翻面再煎一会儿即可.

New container + old pencil case

Currently, I'm using this big pencil case.

1st because it has handles, i can grab it easily.

2nd, it's big enough. I can even put in my calculator.

3rd It's a product from lovely lace.. can't get anywhere else now because it's out of stock, so no one use the same pencil case with me.

This pencil case very useful.

the reason i bought it last time because of the little pouch at the head .

I can put my eraser and document pins there.

but jst a bit small. maximum can put 5 pencils.

If I put in highlighter and ruler, it'll burst!

Just bought 3 containers 2 days ago.

yellow one is made in China, while the blue squre box with 4 compartments is made in Korea.

No wonder the price of the 2 yellow container = 1 blue squre container.

blue container is for Cindy as her christmas Gift.

Kanebo

Last week I not only went to KL to meet up my friend,

but also do my facial at Star Hill.

The beauty parlor named Kanebo.

well, cindy help me bought the facial package at RM180 (facial + hot stone spa + 1 lipstick)

at 1st i felt so "heart pain" to spend nearly RM200 on facial..

then..

when I got in, sit down, flip through the menu,

Just realised that the facial itself cost RM288!!!

and I only do it for RM90!!

so, it soothed my heart a bit ..

so, I waited there and they gave me a welcome tea..

the tea is sweet and sour (not only got sweet sour fish, sweet sour tea also got)

with 2 pieces of dried peach.

when I saw the tray with tea and the fork, I felt sooooooooooooo excited & happy!!

why??

because i can picnic in facial shop!!!!!

( i think u might think that i'm gila, but i think u'll feel the same if u are there)

The fork is so cute!! I was about to ask where they bought the fork, but thinking that i'll still be coming next month, so i better dont do something which will make ppl think i'm a barbarian.

go facial shop, not the facial products that put besides me attracted me but the fork ah, cup ah.. tray ahh. and the "floor sink" that attracted me.

I think.. i'm really ...getting like aunty..

ok, back to the story,

then i eat while soak my leg in a "floor sink"

(syok nya!!! next time i must make one in my own house!)

really good idea!!

so, can u imagine, in an air con room, with hot tea and soak in hot water...

only one word in ur mind..

"wahhhhhhhuuuu~ ~"

relax and release all ur tension.

then, I continue for 1 and half hour of facial with shoulder massage.

i think, this is the best facial i have so far..

Star Hill, really no play play..

next month will go again to do my hot stone spa...

ps: too bad they dun allow me to take pic, else i can show u.

last but not least, thanks to cindy for recommended me this wonderful facial!!

Recipe for Swiss Roll

1) mix water (3 TBsp) + vegetable oil/cooking oil (1 TBsp) and stir until the mixture turn white.

2) add in sugar (1 TBsp) and stir till all the sugar dissolved.

3) sieve in flour (45 g / 6 TBsp) + a very little bit of salt and mix it well. DO NOT STIR TOO MUCH!!

4) add in 2 egg YOLK (one by one), slowly stir, mix the mixture then ok already. Don't stir too long, just count 5 times.

5)Preheat oven 180 degree at 20 min

6) beat 2 egg WHITE , add in sugar little by little. Beat until it will not drop down from your mixer. Use a glass instead of bowl as it will rise after beat.

7) fold in (6) into batter (4) [this process take about 1 min only, do it as fast as u can to avoid air in egg white release ]

8) pour on the baking tray (apply a sheet of baking paper on baking tray)

9) bake until turn golden. (ps: put one more empty tray below to avoid over burnt as the bottom fire of oven is stronger)

10) cool it and apply jam and roll it and keep in fridge.

11) cut and serve.

curler and powerful hair blower

then, she tries her new 'kachang' on my hair..

result cannot be shown here.

coz we both laugh for 10 minutes after she curled for my hair..

all I can say is, it looks like many snakes on my head.

her housemate is a bartender, he made this mousse

nice~

while letting her doing her experiment on my hair, she treats me strawberry + yakult juice and lots of pictures from laptop.

I'm the white mice.

Cindy loves strawberry, I love blue berry, so we are in berry family.

she told me she fall in love with strawberry juice + Yakult

and finally, i have the chance to drink it! nice, really nice!!

sorry,the pic is a bit blur..

female & male t-shirt

it has been proven that Melbourne t-shirt can be worn by both male n female.

by kiki lala..

A book a day, keeps my brain alive

Being an academician is really not easy.

You gonna read a lot!! a lot!!! and think a lot!! and a lot!!!

well, I'm a person who likes collecting books, but no time to read books (lazy actually)

why I dont read so much book now? because of INTERNET!!!

when u on your pc, your eyes just can't stop.

still remember during my secondary school life, I used to read abundant of Enid Blyton's mystery books. some are in english but most are in Malays.

I read more than 20 of his books within a month.

That time, the books never get off from my hands, i even hang it in bathroom and read it while showering myself. Increadible huh?

yea, not only that, one thing that I think most of you would envy me is..

I read books on a rambutan tree!!

My house have many trees, nothing to do during holiday, so I just climb up the tree and sat on it and plucked the reddish rambutan on the tree..

then i eat one by one while read the story book... then my grandma couldn't find me all the time and my dad wonder why the rambutan skin keep dropping down from the tree.

but now, I no longer read Enid Blyton's book. I'm reading all these banking, finance and statistic softwares... I love them. .. but just that the environment is too seductive. (internet n lots of movie online lor..)

therefore, starting today, I must go back to my reading life.. read while eat, sleep and bath and XXX in toilet. Really enjoying.. too bad, no tree for me climb up now.

aii..

forget it , let's read books!!! and be a wiser and smarter lady..

bible .. I'll try to finish reading it too.. coz God says, "the beginning of the knowledge is knowing God"

A reminder for myself

从子晶的blog 看到，很感动，所以就copy了remind 我自己。

A Reminder, myself~

不可忘记，你是如何从死阴的幽谷，被捡了起来；
不可忘记，你是如何从哭丧的泪人儿，被抹干了泪水；
不可忘记，你是如何从谷底里被带到光明中，看见了生命的亮光；
不可忘记，你生活的每一天，每一个呼吸，都是上帝何等美丽的恩典，降在你的生活中；
不可忘记，你是他尊贵的泥土，在他眼里，你是宝贵的宝藏，没有任何能取代你们之间的距离，除非你自己选择离开。

亲爱的子晶，你的每一天，你的每一步，都是他赏赐于你。没有他美丽的蓝图，规划在你的生命中，你还能是谁？
启程吧，向着使命奔跑去~
