Happy Birthday Dearest hubby!!!

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 30 Jan 2014 04:02:00 +0000

It was le hubby's birthday this month and I thought

of making it special for him since its our first time celebrating his

birthday together with my new family.

Also, back in those days when we were still couples,

he messaged me telling how envy he gotten when he

sees his elder brother carry his daughter to blew the birthday candles together.

Its a hint that he wanted to celebrate with his son!

So his wishes come true.

* * *

Got up in the morning, head to work as usual

and of course, gave him a smooch and wished him before heading to work.

Probably he was expecting something more like a birthday gift whatsoever

but nah, not doing all these surprise for him early in the morning. lol.

So I was preparing lotsa things for him for his birthday,

and my, as time passed, I've gotten more and more stressed.

I have always wanted to bake a cake personally for him.

And since I am a hard headed person, I do not have attempt for 2nd try

if I failed in this baking. Reason? Not because I'm kiasu but

time constrained. And baking ingredients are awfully expensive since

I will never ever use cheap ingredients, its for everyone to consume into their stomach wey!

So if I failed for once, that's it.

Get a pretty birthday cake in the bakery shop. Settle.

There I was, searching for top rated cake recipe all over Google.

And yes, being a picky person in most of things and food,

I was too picky on cake recipe too. Lol.

But being a picky person is a great thing I must say.

The recipe was a life savor for me, yes, 2nd time baking a cake for someone

and it turned out to be most complimented cake ever.

Compliments are so so important for me, you get to improve yourself for

better each and everytime you receive critics and compliments.

Finally settle down with one of the highest rated choc cake recipe.

No worries, I shall post the recipe soon in next post.

Stay tune for it.

Preparing all the ingredients.

And yes, you can see the results of the cake made by a

basic baker here :D

Was pleased on the results. And yes, balloons decorations are just too cute

to resist. Birthday candles too, colorful ones.

Everything is specially made by me, except for the candles and plastic balloons.

Just love the results <3 p="">

Heading for dinner in a Chinese restaurant in Puchong.

Don't remember the name but if you know the Twins cafe,

then you should know this restaurant. Its opened by the same owner. :)

Love the salted egg yolk fry with long beans the most, yummeh!

And that's it. Some simple dish. :)

Not introducing much here. :D

Back in the house, the surprise.

I am glad hubby was smiling all the time because

he was surprise. Everyone was surprised actually

on the cake I made, haha. Love it.

And birthday pressie from me to le hubby, an iPad mini. <3>

Last but not least, a family portrait and some pictures hubby

blowing the candle while carrying baby Mac <3 p="">

Happy birthday dearest, I love you the most!

xoxo.

Welcome 2014!

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 21 Jan 2014 05:32:00 +0000

So year 2013 has ended and there are pretty much

unaccomplished task back then.

This 2014 year will be a brand new start for me and my family

and there will be another long list of New Resolutions to be made

this year. Fuh. Gonna have to cut em short and simple :D

So lets summarize what last December have been for me.

I don't remember me, myself compiling all the 2013 pictures

so I'm unable to make a full post out of it.

A 2013 December post shall be it! :)

1. Remembered the fact that my office desk is still full

with incomplete work and tons of documents

to be follow up and filing.

Nope, its not the fact that I am sitting in front of the computer blogging

or lazying around; but the fact is, I have been taking charge

in different departments which I barely can breath anymore.

So exhausting! :(

2. Considered myself lucky because fortune luck has been with me all these year.

Been winning lotsa of prizes throughout year 2013 and

thanks again to Cleo Magazine and The Women's Weekly Magazine

for choosing me as one of the winner for Hiruscar products giveaway

and Hush Puppies apparels giveaway for this December '13 month.

Arigato Gozaimasu!

3. Raw bird nest harvested.

Can't wait for more to come! :D

Not selling, mainly consuming all for ourselves haha!

4. Been participating in different competitions as well.

For example, Crabtree and Evelyn's one.

Unfortunately never win.

Other contestants are so much more creative :)

Congrats to them!

5. Participating in China Yiwu International Expo

and winning some grand prizes there are one of a lifetime

experience! LCD TV, Samsung Galaxy phone and hampers.

Wow.

Also, get to lay your hands on new products from each different booth

at great price, just wow.

6. Trying out more stuff from Daiso.

Yes, Daiso can have me as ambassador d.

I've been spending thousands of ringgits there. T.T

7. And did I mentioned a RM2 shop for each items purchased above?

From snacks to household goods,

99% of them are all priced at RM2 each nett!

And the most expensive goods sold there are only at RM4 nett?

Double wow.

8. And of course, most importantly, I did not missed

a single outing with my baby boy.

Every weekend different places to visit or shop.

Pretty boring hanging out in malls all the time but I am

contented. As long as I get to keep baby Mac accompanied

and also get to make sure he is comfortable with anywhere he goes.

Last Nando's meal of the year for 2013. :D

Just remembered I have another free Nando's meal,

yet to be redeemed,

courtesy to Nando's ! Thank you~

9. Tons of baby Mac's photos.

Kindly ignore my hideous look.

Just trying to imitate baby Mac here. :/

Look at him, growing up so fast.

He is currently 6 months old.

Gosh, time flies. :)

10. Last but not least,

souvenirs worth thanking for.

Thanks Wendy for the limited Starbucks Christmas Ed tumbler

and hit butt Ducky toys for baby Mac. :D

And thanks Rena for the cute Christmas theme baby socks

for lil Mac :D

Oh the ciggi? Not mine. Just thought its cute so

snapped some photos of it. Love shaped someore. Fuiyoo..

So yeah, December 2013 is pretty boring here for me especially

when I have to take care my baby boy and

clean up the house. 2014 is coming up

and I just can't wait to share the excitements here

because its CNY~~~ jeng jeng jeng~~

Crazy Food Marathon V

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 20 Jan 2014 11:06:00 +0000

It's always a pleasure to be able to taste different kinds of food

in Malaysia. Since this is a multiracial country, I am so fortunate to try

all kinds of food. And yeah, I just can't get enough about it.

Throwback on few weeks back, le familia went to Pavillion

for some window shopping.

Never did much shopping as I've been saving most of the ka-chings $$

for my travel expenses this year with hubby <3 p="">

Went to this newly opened Japanese restaurant, Ichi-Zen in Tokyo Street.

Great ambiance and service.

It is troublesome to find a good dining restaurant when you have

baby stroller pushing around the mall but I am glad

the staffs here are so helpful getting me a comfortable seats for me,

hubby and baby Mac.

Ordered these for myself :D

Yes, Imma big eater after delivery :D

Hubby had his fried udon noodles (no picture for that).

My bad, I actually forgotten the set's name.

But it tasted yummy, freshly cut salmon, tunas etc.

Rice are slightly warm served.

Price is reasonable for this meal, to me at least.

You won't get such fresh fish usually at most Malaysian Japanese restaurants.

Lala shells with miso soup and lotsa white tofus <3 p="">

Not too salty, so its fine.

Finally, my all time favourite,

grilled Salmon fish head. Yummeh!

Overall, it was a great experience dining there.

Would definately pay a visit there soon!

* * * * *

Move on, had a simply dinner with hubby in SS14 last week.

We had Bah Kut Teh. And since I am from Klang,

I was sort of picky on each bahkutteh meal I have.

This Ah Ping's bahkutteh restaurant was the one we dined in.

Search for the review on this restaurant and apparently there were

plenty of good reviews on their food.

Tried it and disappointed.

Sorry, but no, it doesn't taste as good as describe.

If I were to rate it, it would have be 5/10.

Yes, that bad. Tasteless, non aromatic soup, probably since its night hours,

they might have just added water to the soup? Idk.

Even le hubby commented how badly it taste.

Well, I believe they will improve their recipe soon.

Will probably drive all the way back to Klang to eat bahkutteh next time. T.T

Yeah, smiling happily before meal. T.T

* * * * *

Another week passed and weekends has arrived.

Went for dating with le hubby and baby Mac only in Sunway Pyramid.

Was keen to try Dubu-dubu restaurant since its always crowded

in Mid Valley or other branch. Thank God

Pyramid branch isn't that crowded. Fuh.

Choices in Sunway Pyramid's branch here are pretty limited

compared to other branch so there isn't much choices to make.

Ordered kimchi chicken set for myself which le hubby

had kimchi beef set.

Imma huge fans of side dishes, idk why T.T

So I ordered spicy fish balls since choices are limited.

Everything tasted fine. The set meals are pretty filling.

Bloated but I am capable to finish em all. Except for hubby haha.

Price is considered reasonable for the set meals, not the fish balls.

Ending my post with some shots of hubby feeding baby Mac apple puree

and baby Mac smiling and laughing. <3 p="">

xoxo.

Lil Mac always have this bright smile.

He will go laughing all day eventhou you pretended to scold him.

And think about it now, he is soon-to-be 5 months old.

He mumble alot and talks alot too.

Aww..

Finishes his milk and can't stop smiling in front of the camera.

Yes, that's a mosquito bite on his left hand :(

Shower in the bath tub <3 p="">

And the look of him grumbling. Haha.

Photoshoot in Mickey crochet set wear.

I had it custom made, at the biggest size.

But the pants already cannot fit in :(

Not lil Mac here but Hailey.

Morning breakfast with this cutie :)

One exciting story telling moment by lil Mac to us parents before he head to bed.

Uber cute. :D

After milk + grumble session but happy to be in front of the camera.

Yes, some cream on his face because he scratch his own face. :/

Trying out Christmas headband in Daiso.

And naked, ready for his fav activity : bathing.

Le hubby taking care of lil Mac while I'm away for work.

Story telling session by daddy and lil Mac concentrating.

And now, he knew how to sit without support :(

Way too soon isn't it?

Happy when his uncle pay a visit during the weekend.

And moody mood turned on when he gets sleepy.

Look at his grumpy face haha.

Crazy Food Marathon IV

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 06 Jan 2014 05:31:00 +0000

I might not be a good food reviewer but all food review published

in my blog are all based on how I like the taste.

One fine day, we went to 1U for hang kai kai.

Le hubby wasn't feeling well but he wanted to eat Korean food.

Most Korean food are heaty so he decides to try out on this new Japanese restaurant.

We did not even take a look at the menu displayed and walked in

straight away because the crowd was huge.

So as usual, we definitely assume the food is awesome.

Tonkatsu.

A type of Japanese food where you have rice, shredded cabbage and

their famous deep fried pork cutlet served in a set.

Didn't know it at first because all this while,

sashimi is my top favourite and I'm unwilling to try something else.

Sounds stubborn? No, blame the salmon. Lol.

So yeah, the food there isn't cheap but its worth it because
the portion is huge, I didn't order the set meals but the side dish,

saw it on every table served :)

And free flow of fresh shredded cabbage.

I ordered most of the side dishes haha.

90% of it? :D

And its expensive, really.

Potato salad and noodle in miso soup.

Awesomeness checked!

Huge potatoes pieces with fresh crunchy cucumber and carrot slice.

Miso soup is great. Size? Green tea cup size.

But it was hot and tasty. I took a sip and hubby ate the whole thing :D

One thing I like is chicken wing. But Japanese fried typed of chicken wing?

Now I wanna give it a try.

Looks normal. But I gotta say, its beyond awesome.

Crunchy honey chicken wing. Absolute tasty. Comes in 6 or 8 pcs I don't quite remember.

Ate all by myself and left two pcs for hubby.

He decline my offer but later on finished em. haha.

Yup, basically that's all I ordered so I'm not sure if the Tonkatsu set is good.

But the side dishes are.

Love the design of the coaster. Denim style :D

Gives me another idea to reuse my old jeans :D

And wide range of all Tonkatsu signature sauces.

Tons of them and all tasted really good :D

The bill came up to RM60++ inc tax.

Not cheap huh?

Love the name card too. Too cute.

After meal, tons of stuff displayed for Halloween

iFeel magazine competition

One of the model dress, unique indeed

Cupcakes cupcakes everywhere!

Bought the magazines.

And they gave goodies bag.

Look at all the samples and freebies I got :D

Had my late lunch.

At Lammeeya.

Not as good as I expected.

No wonder not much crowd. :/

* * * * * * * * * *

Splurge myself with tons of my fav food, at Pavillion food court.

Too expensive I may say.

But the taste is acceptable. Lol.

xoxo.

Short Malacca trip

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 06 Jan 2014 05:31:00 +0000

It's le hubby's friend wedding in Malacca.

Lil Mac is under mommy's care.

It was a pretty rush hour trip because no shopping

and hurry dress up session for attending the wedding.

No wedding ceremony pictures or whatsoever because

everyone is busy drinking and calling yam seng that night haha.

So here's some picture of nyonya food in Malacca

which we went twice because the food is way too yummilicious!

Everything is perfect except for the last pic on the right.

Not sure how is suppose to taste like but this is just weird :/

The rest are good.

Overall rating 9/10.

Where?? Donald and Lily Nyonya restaurant.

The staff are super friendly and helpful.

Thumbs up!

xoxo.

Mivva Box : November '13

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 20 Dec 2013 04:47:00 +0000

Something worth to share with everyone here.

Remember my previous post on Mivva Box Sept & Oct box,

where I encountered torn contact lenses?

Yeap, I reported to Mivva team and they reported it

to the Contact Lens company, and the company contacted me.

It took some time to get a reply or call from them but its worth.

I'm glad we came up with a solution and agreement.

The company contacted me and interview me, finally

decided to give me a replacement on the lenses complete with

eye drop and lens solutions.

I was happy not because of the free gift, but the service.

They took initiative to contact the customers when there are issues as such.

Despite from the first disappointment, I've got to say,

I don't mind giving it a second try. Such as great customer service

I might say, so why not give them another shot for another review?

Parcel arrives the next working day after the conversation through phone.

The new pair of contact lens, I chose grey instead of brown.

Don't want to risk it again.

And the eye drop with lens solution.

* * * * * * * * * *

Move on, gotten my November beauty box last month!

Didn't get to try em last month because too caught up with my work :(

Gotta say I kinda like it because there are two things that I'm looking

forward to try on from this beauty box!

First thing first, Neula 2 in 1 Tea Tree Oil Control Cleanser.
RM14.90 for 100ml and yes, I'm getting this full size

instead of sachets. :D

Have yet give it a try because I'm still using the cleanser

from last 2 month's beauty box issue :D

Will try this out next month / next year? ;p

Facial Essence Collagen Mask is one of the

most looking forward item to try on! :D

RM198.80 for 15G.

And the mask is really really good.

UGB brand is very famous back in Korea,

I have a mask set too where my sis in law bought it back

for me but never get to use it yet. :/

You can also find this brand in Sunway Pyramid.

Talk about this mask, its very moisturizing after usage.

My skin feels really soft after using it, no joke.

Once you opened the packaging, you can find lots of essence

whereby I apply them all around my hands and neck.

Felt really comfortable under air conditioned :D

Move on to sachets samples, we have

ONL Dermost Moistay Cream and Fresh Gel Cream.

RM144.90 for 60ml each

Wasn't the right one for me I may say.

I tried once only on the Moistay Cream.

The next hour, yes, the next hour, you will see my face turned

burned red and skins were peeling off from my face.

It was awful feeling and itchy at the same time.

Not sure if this is sensitive or what, but for a Made in Korea

products, this is the first time my face having issues with it.

Sensitivity lasted for around 4 days with self-treatment.

So yeah, I don't bother giving a try on the Gel Cream anymore.

Stage Nail Colour, this brand were quite well known

around local market because of high publicity?

For RM35 each, it comes in various colors!

And, they have nice range of cosmetic products too.

I gotten myself a metallic brown colored nail polish

but I never use it. I'm sure it will looking absolutely nice, because

I got 2 other brand of nail polish with this similar color.

And they look really gorgeous on my toes.

(I don't apply on nail anymore because didn't want to risk Lil Mac

accidentally suck on my fingers and swallow these chemicals)

Last but not least, I present to you,

Antipodes Joyful Hand & Body Cream

RM149 for 120ml.

Sounds pricey to me at first. But I changed my mind.

It was such a great hand cream.

Made from natural ingredients such as hibiscus and avocado oil.

Yes, this is the product I look forward the most to try one.

I thought it might smell like one kind but no, good smell.

Better smell than those floral type of lotions.

And yes, my skin actually feels softer and moisturized after using it.

How moisturizing? When you rub it, it feels smooth,

something like baby skin, err, rougher a bit I guess? :D

And this sample bottle is considered big to me.

Love love it!

Oh ya in case I forgot, a Bath Puff / Shower Ball

as freebie from Mivva Team.

I guess they're back with freebies~! :)

xoxo.

Qoo10.my

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 20 Dec 2013 04:02:00 +0000

Something new and famous that I came across months back.

A wide range of products sold from mostly China, Korean and Malaysia.

They have promotions daily and all day long. :D

Decided to buy some stuff that I need and like :D

But of course, look for the cheapest one with many positive feedback.

It helps a lot in case parcel gone missing or scam.

Too many sellers selling the same product too,

so please take note. Choose wisely.

Some might be tricky, don't fool yourself with the price stated.

Because when you click on the options available and most

items you like, you have to add on $$ based on the price stated.

Some will state that combine shipping is available but when you add them to cart,

price is different.

My 1st purchase was quite a pleasant.

And no, not disappointed eventhough I have to wait for more than a month.

Used to it when I purchase stuff online at eBay.

So for those who can't wait, choose a faster shipping rate.

It will cost you a bomb.

Laneige water bank essense miniatures.

So much more worth it compared to buying it in full size.

And they gave me a free sample too. :)

Handmade clay watch and silicon rubber watch.

Love it.

Price? You wouldn't believe it. Less than RM20 for both including shipping.

And waiting it to arrives takes me a month, its worth it so no complain.

Sequin clutch and US flag bag.

Good condition. Not those thin type of bags.

And its gorgeous.

Both around RM40 including shipping :D

However one thing, Qoo10.my customer service is so-so.

They don't get my queries most of the time.

And I have to send almost 20 mails to reply their queries instead of mine.

So yea, when another issue I faced was the shipping rate,

I don't bother to ask anymore. I just cancel my order.

And fyi, their office is situated in Singapore

but I'm not sure why they don't understand my simple English queries :/

* * * * * * * * * *

Something that my in law's brought back during their Europe trip.

Thanks alot Dad and Mom in law! :)

xoxo.

A short trip to Cameron Highland

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 18 Dec 2013 07:26:00 +0000

Last weekend, I had a half day leave to accompany

my family for a day trip to Cameron Highland.

So so excited because its been years since I last went there.

A picture of Lil Samson, le Brother's son

Weather is good and chilling early in the morning <3 br="">

Loving the cabbage farm as always.

Those vegetables are so so fresh and delicious

More vegetables...

Spot Lil Samson looking over here with his mom

Since I'm not bringing Lil Mac over and hubby is taking care of him,

I'm busy as a bee, looking at those beautifully displayed dead bees :/

These people really took good care of those dead bees, playing them

one by one around fake flowers and also beehives.

Out of nowhere, there's this stall selling mix nuts,

recipe all the way from China.

Its freaking expensive. 100 gram for RM10?

But hell yeah, its damn good.

Compared to my previous trip in China, it would have cost

me a huge bomb for this. RM50 for 200 gram or less.

But of course, China one's are so much tastier.

xoxo.

Tony Romas Groupon Voucher

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 12 Dec 2013 15:15:00 +0000

It good to splurge yourself with gifts or great food, once a while.

Stumble across some great valued promotions on FOODS :D

Purchased and redeem it with le hubby.

Had lamb rib sets with le hubby.

2 sets at only RM90 inc tax and all :D

Was looking forward for the lamb meat because ribs are my fav part :D

Lamb rib with BBQ Chicken and

Lamb rib with Chicken Tenders.

Comes with a drink and a choice of soups.

Lamb rib was unfortunately a disappointment.

Overcooked and burnt.

On another side, the chicken tenders tasted really good.

Chicken breast meat but its juicy and tasty.

BBQ Chicken are overcooked as well.

Hard to chew and tasted dry :/

Love the side dish, at least it tasted fine.

Ending this boring disappointed post with a photo

Lil Mac and daddy.

xoxo.

Lil Mac First Public Swimming

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 12 Dec 2013 15:12:00 +0000

Quite excited since this is the first time I'm bringing

Lil Mac for swimming in public baby pools.

He was so so excited, can see from his expression (not in the pic!)

when he is swimming, kicked the water non stop lol.

When I carry him out from the pool, he started crying lol.

Well, he actually stayed in the pool for 30 minutes? :/

Which is not recommended for babies.

So here's some lil snap shot of mi familia.

Le hubby and I was smiling happily while Lil Mac

stays cool all the time.

Another shot in mom's home while he is posing with a fist.

xoxo.

Happy Birthday Stanley ! !

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 03 Dec 2013 06:52:00 +0000

It was le brother's birthday early this November,

we had an afternoon birthday celebration in

none other than Umai - Ya Japanese Restaurant.

Forgive me, I just have this deep crush in Salmons.

Sharing my experience with my family actually

grew some interest to give it a try as well.

There isn't much picture here because we actually tried the same thing

that day, and the menus don't have much choices actually :D

Surprisingly, my appetite isn't that great.

Wanted to order more but I just felt full too soon :/

But anyway, the good part, I still manage to finish my slice of cakes

because it is heavenly tasty.

A strawberry cake, specially bought for me brother.

I made him a Black Forest cake last year

but this year I'm caught up with Lil Mac, so yea.

Getting him a great cake and giving him a great surprise :)

I'm glad you're enjoying yourself over there

and thank you for being happy :)

I Love You and hope the best for you,

now and always. :)

Once again,

Happy Birthday Stanley~~~ !!

xoxo.

Homemade with Love

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 03 Dec 2013 06:11:00 +0000

Been into baking lately.

It feels so great to be able to bake, taste fine for the first time! :D

Not complimenting myself as a good baker but hey,

I improved! And that's a good thing.

With encouragements from my family and le hubby.

Baked my first own made brownies.

Previously just bought those ready mix ingredients from malls.

This time, I doing it myself :D

Mould them in Love and Flower shapes :D

Made chocolate truffles too :D

* * * * *

Next, my own made pizza~~ :D

Surprisingly, it tasted quite nice :D

Even le hubby compliment its nice :D

I did a 2nd batch of pizza but it didn't turned out well.

I mean, it was cooked but the taste is just not as previous batch,

probably because I change the type of flour :D

Imma trying out different types of flour.

So now I knew the outcome of this is bad :(

Hopefully it will taste better next time~ :D

xoxo.

Grand Lexis, Port Dickson

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 25 Nov 2013 05:41:00 +0000

Last weekend, we crashed a night in Grand Lexis hotel.

It was a complimentary stay so why not :D

Thanks to le hubby's friend for the free stay.

7 of us staying in the cozy room, perfect.

Le hubby and I arrived earlier so we checked in ahead.

There were no free breakfast but there's private pool so that fine :D

Let's take a tour shall we? :D

Very huge and cozy room.

2 king sized bed and roomy living hall.

And in between both beds, there's a small steps where

you can sit and watch TV there too.

Huge dressing room, small bathroom.

Comes along with iron board, bath robes, drawers and safety box.

Complimentary Crabtree and Evelyn bath range.

Mosquito repellant which you rarely get your blood sucked by the lil winged vampire.

And, something to slim your thigh down.

You probably would like to enjoy the view too with tons of Boh tea range :D

And the best part :

Your own 24 hours private swimming pool.

And no, the water is not cold, even when we're swimming

during the night hours, the water is warm :D

Only chilling when you got up from the pool.

The winds here are strong and windy :D

* * * * *

This hotel is fully booked even during the weekday.

We went there on weekday btw lol.

Love the environment.

Only thing is, hardly able to find parking so make sure

you buy all the stuff you needed and wanted,

park and never drive out again else don't expect to get a parking. :/

There will be free golf cart ride for those who's room is so far away.

Call them for this service too when you wanna checked out with tons of luggage.

xoxo.

Happy Halloween!! :D Part II

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 21 Nov 2013 04:44:00 +0000

I know, I know,

Halloween is over for nearly a month.

But just wanna update this job I did last month

in Geographer Restaurant and Bar, Puchong.

Honestly speaking, I was quite disappointed on my iPhone.

All the pictures turned out to be a huge disappointment,

or should I say, hideous :(

Gotta admit, they look so real and scary in real.

I was overly obsessed with bloods that night.

I did bullet in eyes make up (top left), shark jaws make up (top right),

completely burned patron (mid left), burnt marks (mid right)

- thanks to the lighting effect, huge white thingy pop on his face :/

and all severe injuries and burnt marks (bottom).

I'm glad my customers enjoyed their make up and yes,

these make up did scares lots of customers and they actually

thought its real :D

Thanks to my friends who came over to support us! :)

I did some on their hands too which I didn't managed to capture the pics,

either too blurry or ugly :/

So yeah, looking forward for next year~

xoxo.

Chik Chak Part II

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 17 Nov 2013 03:47:00 +0000

Something to share over the past weekends. :)

Family reunion dinner during mooncake festival <3 p="">

Yoyo Ice + Fried Chicken in Klang.

One of the best in town. You should give it a try, really.

Some selfie sessions.

Look at how mischievous lil Mac is. Aww.

Receiving tons of baby samples lately.

Can't wait to try them.

Extremely funny expression of lil Mac and him

watching Naruto with his daddy.

Daddy and lil Mac at home when I'm away for work

during Hari Raya Haji.

Lil Mac happy after breakfast!

Lil Mac reading menu, guess he really keen to order something

He and Samson. Grumble rumble. Haha.

Looking serious during working hours. Do not disturb. Lol.

And him fed up on reading all the documents lol.

Bough this new neck float for him at RM20++, not cheap at all.

And his milk bottle, Tupperware brand.

Not the one I would recommended to new moms.

Shouldn't get milk bottles that easily causes dented nipples.

More air can be easily entered into the milk bottle

and the air is easily sucked by the baby.

Lil Mac with his niece.

She just celebrated her 1st year birthday months ago.

Check out her lovely party here.

Lil Mac rants about his day.

One fine and lazy Sunday.. *yawns*

Lil Mac crying because he is sweating inside an air-conditioned restaurant :O

We decided to mimic him haha.

Lil Mac goes "huh" while I distract him from watching tv.

Sleepy lil Mac after shower and meal before heading out.

At relatives wedding dinner in Seremban.

Lil Mac in his jacket. Look absolutely handsome that night :D

while waiting for his turn to check up.

Daddy is wiping his sweat off. Lol.

Receiving free gift from Wendy, le hubby's sister.

RM50 valued Starbucks card! (yiipee!!)

And GSC Movie passes. Sigh, if only I can bring lil Mac go. :/

Tons of snacks from Thailand by my sis in law.

Tried banana caramel chips before?

You should. Sounds weird but tasted awesome!

Breakfast in Penang One, Puchong

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 15 Nov 2013 03:39:00 +0000

Don't be surprised.

My family loves fried or spicy food even in the morning :D

So I just tag along but I don't practice this habit :D

I usually have light meals for breakfast but this is an exception :D

Everyone is so excited to try this newly opened Penang food restaurant

called Penang One.

Massive crowds by the time we reach there.

So difficult to find seats.

So you can guess how good business the restaurant is.

Very detailed menu too, stated all Penang best hawker food,

the food histories and streets name. Amazing.

Pulau Tikus Bark Thong Hokkien Mee

Kampung Jawa Pee Chuan Char Koay Teow

Tasted weird, nuff said.

I will rate both 3/5.

Hokkien mee tasted sweet. Whats this?

Char koay teow, portion size is one small soup bowl.

And ingredients? 2 medium sized prawn, beansprout, egg and vege.

No clams, no garlic or onion and worst, no pork oil.

Pulau Tikus Keong Curry Mee

Kampung Malabar Loh Bak

Still acceptable but this curry mee is slightly sweet as well :/

And I thought sugar price increased?

Loh Bak is just fine.

Last but not least,

Cintra Lane Bak Chang

I should proudly announce this is the worst bak chang I have ever had in my life.

If you're stopping by this restaurant, DO NOT order their bak chang.

There are two types and one of them is this.

You will regret for ordering this.

There's only one, ONE piece of egg yolk inside the bak chang.

Nothing else, thank you very much.

No meat, no mushrooms nothing.

Only egg yolk, 1 pc.

*applause*

And the price? Reasonable but not worth

at all because the food, is completely a huge disappointment.

* * *

On another bright side,

I've finally get to try Texas Chicken

while le hubby gets to try his Asam Laksa.

Asam Laksa and add on another bowl of Pan mee was really good.

Price is fine for such taste but portion is small.

Enough taste and ingredients.

Thumbs up!

Location : Ah Cheng Laksa, Asian Avenue, Sunway Pyramid.

Move on to Texas Chicken,

I ordered snack sampler set.

My, I love the ice lemon tea, not too sweet.

But not le hubby. He complained the tea taste is too heavy :D

The fried chicken is actually compatible with another fried chic chain store.

Less MSG compare to others. Their so called biscuits which is more like a muffin

tasted tasteless because the taste only on top of it not the whole thing.

Their chicken is good. Not too dry and even I ordered spicy ones,

the skins and the chicken is awesome. Not much of MSG.

The chicken tender strips is made from chicken breast.

Not dry. Juicy actually.

Mash potatoes is a nono.

Complete turn off because its obvious the gravy is made out of BBQ sauce.

Didn't get to try their coleslaw because it was sold out.

xoxo.

Lil Mac First Swimming

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 13 Nov 2013 03:41:00 +0000

Baby is "matured" enough for swimming! :D
Usually it is recommended for babies above 4 months
to go swimming but I think my baby is doing fine in his 3 months.

He wasn't that into water during the first 2 months.
We usually bath him on his lil red bathtub and
he doesn't seems to like it at all :/

However, it was a newly and great experience for us,
as a parents and for him. Bought him the neck float and
have him swims together with his cousin brother, Samson.
Samson is just 4 months older than him but they made a great team.
And they look alike to me, don't they?

Lil Mac go solo .

Look how happy he is.

And look at his cheeks. Omg.

Can't stand him. OMG.

We even brought him to public swimming pool.

And he was all excited about it.

He swim quite long there which is not recommended.

Babies are suppose to swim for just 5-10 minutes max.

He was inside the baby pool for 30 minutes more T.T

Ok, first and last. Next time only 10 minutes. :D

xoxo.

Dine in The Apartment

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 11 Nov 2013 03:31:00 +0000

One cloudy day, le hubby decided to take a walk at eCurve, Damansara.

I used to love that place because they always have this booth set up

in the outdoor where there are always interesting stuff for sale

like DIY or handmade items, food - cookies mostly and cheap clothing.

However, it is not as interesting as before because mostly stalls sells the same items/food :/

So yeah, anyway,

we had our lunch in The Apartment restaurant.

Ambiance is not as I expected.

Was suppose to be a home themed restaurant but they

played rock songs which completely ruined my mood eating there ;p

Moreover, I'm bringing my baby there too :/

Nothing special compared to the menu listed.

The menu sounded and looked more delicious compared to the food in real :/

Ordered The Apartment Soup. Freaking pricey and I thought it was something

that tasted real real good. But no. MSG all over and the ingredients?

Mushrooms, light chicken broth, carrots, peppermint leaves.

How can this even worth RM10.90?

I can make 10 bowls of that myself without costing me more than RM10,

including the soup. Very very simple yet expensive dish. Disappointment 1.

Le hubby order Prawn Capellini, RM33.90.

He said it was not bad, I said it was terrible.

Prawn is fresh, + point. But the noodles tasted really weird.

And the noodle isn't hot, just warm when served.

So after a 5 minutes chat, the dish became cold. Disappointment 2.

Since the soup and le hubby's dish isn't up to my expectations,

thank Godness my dish tasted fine.

I'm a huge fan of lamb meats. Anything has got to do with lamb, I'll go crazy :/

So this dish caught my attention.

Spicy Lamb & Caramelized Onion Baguette, RM24.90

Sounded spicy, look at the picture. But no. It is not.

The lamb meat is perfect.

The vegetables and bread and the creams, oh my.

Heaven.

The crisps, fabulous.

This dish completely blow my mind off.

Cheaper and so much more tastier and worthy in price than le hubby's dish.

Really, you should try it.

Last but not least, I ordered the Banana Layered Cake RM14.90

It tasted really good honestly, but too sweet.

Notice the while layer? It fully sugar coated cream.

Too sugary. However the chocolate cream on the plate?

Fabulous. Dark choc. OMG.

Huge chocolate fan here *waves*

Overall I satisfied with the meal I ordered except for the soup.

Price is a lil too pricey but for the Lamb Baguette, I don't mind paying.

How about you?

xoxo.

Coco Steamboat, Puchong

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 09 Nov 2013 03:29:00 +0000

Considered one of the unique and tasty steamboat
around Puchong area.
Absolutely love their soup, tasteful.

Portion isn't that big but its tasty.

Charges are rather high but acceptable for the food quality. :D

Nile.com.my II

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 07 Nov 2013 03:27:00 +0000

Remember about last time my purchase

with Nile.com.my?

Read about it here.

This time, I went and purchase some other stuff again with them.
This time more on my stuff :D

Nothing much,

mostly leggings and accessories.

A quilted bag and an army cap

* * *

Quite disappointed with my 2nd purchase actually.

The legging is stated free size so a small M patron like me should be able to fit in.

But no. The legging is more likely fits S size patron or smaller.

There were 4 of them. Two fits me just fine but another two not :/

Quilted chain bag.

Looks stunning on the outside but the quality of the interior is nah-ah.

Looks more like made of thick cardboard? :/

So if you want to maintain its shape, remember to insert some papers or dust bags.

The bag came to me in a bit worn off condition.

Not used. But due to the packaging, the tape accidentally taped on the bag.

When I try removing it, the pu leather was pulled out together T.T

Army cap. Its for le hubby.

He was happy to receive this. I think he have this "thing" for caps.

Lol. Color is slightly true to pic and quality is good.

Accessories.

5 hair clips/pins, 2 bracelets, 1 pair of earring,

1 headband and 1 necklace.

There was this
Zoom the pic, and you will realize the earring is not nice at all.
Compared to the pic in the web, this pair of earring looks so different :(
Headband, bracelets and the necklace are fine. Quality is good too.
As for the hair clips/pins, I only like the flower (2 of em) and the plain black pin.
The other two? I can DIY them myself in another color.
Cheap material and quality so-so :/

However, despite from this no-so-satisfied purchase, I will
still purchase again from Nile.com.my.
I think the quality are acceptable for the price I'm paying for.
Imagine, accessories for like RM1 - RM2.30 only?
That's considered really worth it already :D

Homecook with Love

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 05 Nov 2013 03:22:00 +0000

Oh, how I misses home cook meals

by my lovely mom!

She is indeed a great home chef.

She can basically cook everything without menus. haha.

Which is what I'm trying to learn and do now.

Below are some of the dishes specially cooked by her

since I'm home for dinner.

Mucho mucho gracias and love ~~

Thanks mama~

I love you! :D

Khun Thai, Klang

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 03 Nov 2013 03:25:00 +0000

One of the best Thai restaurant I encountered and tried their food
in Malaysia. I love traveling and expose to different kinds of food.
Thank God my sis in law is a Thai lady and I get to taste tons of
different dishes recommended and cooked by her :D

So this restaurant, Khun Thai, have several branches
around Klang Valley and Penang Island.
Their new branch is now available in Klang.

A great mini fountain with plants and fish view. :)

Le Sis in Law was well prepared unlike me.

She bought all kinds of mosquito repellant and creams

to prevent her baby from getting mosquito bite.

While I was there snapping photos like a jakun on the stuff she brought. :/

No longer after that, our meal is served.

My apology I do not know the names for the dishes.

But I suppose by looking at the photos, you're able to guess what kinda dish is that :D

So if there's any other Thai restaurant that serves great dishes,

let me know! Would love to give it a try~~ :D

xoxo.
