Its ME! Blogging

I tried a pizza recipe from this wonderful lady's blog the other day. Then husband & I went to Tesco and buy all the items that are not in the kitchen and one of them is Yeast (mauripan). Being a person who's expert in masak maggie goreng or maggie kuah and other dishes like sambal goreng and sayur goreng, I dont know how yeast or mauripan look like. Then we saw a baking powder on the rack, I asked husband if this is the thing and he confidently said yes. To confirm it, I called the sales asst. and asked whether mauripan and baking powder are the same thing. Si sales asst. ni pun mengiyakannye and suggested Nona brand to me.

As soon as I reached home, tanpa melengahkan waktu I prepared all the ingredients and its actually so simple that even my niece Alya can do it! Then there's one part it says I have to put the dough aside after mixing all the ingredients and wait until the dough double it size. I waited for almost 20minutes and the size jangan nak kate double, besar sikit pun tidak.

I started to worried and go on with the preparation like sprinkle the sausages and other filling and immediately put the nice looking pizza (at that time) in the oven.

I kept on checking the pizza while it was in the oven and the base stays at the original size. I waited until the base look yellowish and the toppings started to overcooked before I take it out from the oven. It looked ok its just that the base sangatlah keras macam biskut lutut. Tangan suamiku sampai sakit2 mase nak potong pizza tu nak-nak lagi gune pisau potong bawang tu! Bile makan, the taste was just ok, I know how to improve on the tomato paste etc but I am still wondering why the base is so hard!

So the next day, while driving back home tibe-tibe rase macam nak buat kuih donat. So I called mak to ask her how to do it. Mak said you have to have mauripan bla..bla..bla...then I asked her, "baking powder tu mauripan ke mak?" Mak cakap "Ade ke pulak, mauripan tu ibu roti, yis tu!" "Laaaa...patutlah pizza orang tak jadi!!" eeeeeeeee... malunye!!

The thing is, I'm 28 years old this year and going to have my second child in few month and due to my ignorance to cook regularly, mauripan/yeast dengan tepung penaik pun tak tau??!!! Seriously I need to really play my role as a married woman. ;(

Finally!!! I'm using Along's lappie rite now as my computer still disabled me from signing in to my blogspot account. Grrrr!! Thanks to Celcom Broadband!

Kaklong is now waiting to deliver her first baby, she's infront of the TV feeling anxious as the baby has yet to decide whether she wants to come out today or tomorrow. Yes its a SHE. Another mak nenek in the family is coming.

I dont know what to say, husband is next to me playing the guitar. He's trying to find my hp ringtone tune. Memang dah takde keje.

Emelda also infront of the tv watching Channel Zee.

Abah I dont know what's he doing rite now.

Boring..boring.. I know I'm going nowhere with this entry. I'm just so glad I'm able to write right now.

Till then, adios!!

p/s: will post an entry that was written before, but unable to post it here!

Ahahahahha….i’m so happy. I know I’m still cant get over it and move on. I know I should act more adult? But whatever!!

An ex-colleague called just now and told me a story about this one-particular-person-that-I-despise-the-most. And I cant stop smiling since then eventhough she didn’t managed to finish the whole story due to unknown reason which required her to put down the phone. Must be this one-particular-person-that-I-despise-the-most’s best friend a.k.a her bos is around. Hehehe…

Anyways, Obama is the next president of United States. For no specific reason, I’m so happy. No not because his father is actually a Muslim (because I don’t really know his father actually born as a Muslim), and not because he once lived in Asia. Maybe because he looks nice and I just want to see how the Americans react or how far they can accept a half African-American as their president. I also hope that with his multiracial background he could change how we look at America and how they look at us, the Muslims. And the biggest hope should be PEACE NO WAR!

On the other notes, Emelda has grown smarter each day. She speaks very well these days and we can actually communicate with her (meaning that we can ask simple question and she can answer bag, correctly!). According to most people (mainly orang2 tue or specifically my inlaws and my own mother) kids her age can hardly speak so fluent like her considering she’s only 1 year and 7 month. Alhamdulillah… I would like to list down each and every word (or vocabs) that she has learned but since there’re too many, I shall not. Or maybe a few:

Dedek (she call herself dedek as adik) nak nom air dodok (while pointing at the sofa)
(adik nak minum air sambil duduk)

Nak tottt
(nak ikut)

Dedek nak pa… dedek nak aik planeeee
(adik nak selipar adik nak naik plane – mesen masuk 50sen with lagu2 at family store)

The best part is when she calls my name:
Mummy…owhhhh Mummy…..
It sounds sooo…melting.

And when we call her name and she’s in a good mood, she will reply ‘sayeeee’..

Nenek nak andi
(Nenek nak mandi)

And ade la banyak lagi yang tak berape nak kuase tulis kat sini.

Anyways on the other notes note, I’m 2 months pregnant. No wonder Emelda acted weird after my Raya leave. She was down with high fever on the last day of my Raya leave, and since then, she always crying and screaming for no reason (sometimes there’s a reason la like she wanted to go out playing ke ape) but she never acted like that. Crying like mad. And then even when I wanted to breastfeed her she refused. Like she never say no to breastmilk! Until one stage, I thought she kene sampuk ke ape because we went jalan-jalan to many places during raya. From Kuala Selangor to Bukit Melawati to see beruk to Melala to Zoo Melaka to Kuala Pilah and so on. But I didn’t go to dukun or whatsoever but still I did bace ayat-ayat Al-Quran whenever she cried like that. Risau jugak coz like I said, she’s not that kind of kiddo! And after a while, I realized she’s actually getting cleverer coz she knows now what she wants and being more demanding than ever. I think, she knows that when she cried and screamed like that, she could get whatever she wants. So there it goes, the hyper dramatic queen. But she’s better now other than the screaming part. She knows that I’m carrying a baby inside, I told her so. And when I ask where’s the baby she will point to my stomach and when I asked her to kiss the baby, she never refused. I hope she could be a good kakak.

But, sometimes I feel so sad. I don’t know whether I could divide my love for her and the baby later. Its so sad if she has to turn to someone else when she needs attention and I’m busy with the new baby. And how can I layan both when with only her around sometimes I tend to be too tired and too busy with other things ended up the other family members have to layan her. I feel like its so unfair, coz I only spend like few hours with her daily. Its sad that I cant really see her grow up every hours. And soon enough, I have to stop breastfeeding her, her most favorite activity. Hmm…

Moving on, I really wanted to blog about my raya and put tons of pictures but well, I got no time (yeah rite) to blog so much. Since I’m so excited on the news that my friend told me about, it has triggered my kerajinan to blog again, after a long hiatus..

Till then peeps, (if there’s any) tata!!
