Meatball day

Yup, I know. Another post about food. Hehehe..

We had lunch in Ikea today. When you hear Ikea, you will remember their meatballs, right? So that's exactly what we had for lunch. To be exact, what Ulfah had for lunch. I always and always eat their superb Salmon. I love eating here. Where else can you get delicious salmon for only RM11.90?

superb salmon.

if only I can cook the same thing at home....

(would it be cheaper?)

green salad

and meatballs!!

So why was today a meatball day?

Because we had meatball for dinner too. Meatball and vegetable soup. This I made myself. Recipe from myresipi.com. It is simple to cook, but taste superb.

Owh this got nothing to do with meatball. Just sharing the newest picture of my step baby brother. Cute eh? (look at the mess he made behind him)

Till then. Goodnight everyone.

Teringin dan teringat

4 hari bercuti di Solo, mulut nih dah teringin nak makan masakan rumah. Asyik cuba makanan Indonesia, kali nih teringin nak makan makanan Melayu.

Jadi, tengahari tadi masak sendiri kat rumah. Citarasa Melayu asli. Apa agaknya makanan yang teringin sangat nak makan?

Gulai ikan masin ngan nenas. Tapi yang ini extra sikit sebab kami letak pucuk singkong...eh silap, pucuk ubi kayu. Tak tau ade ke orang lain masak letak dun singkong, tapi sebab dah ada, kami letak jek. Janji sedap.



Kemudian buat telur dadar cencalok. Uhh..tengah terliur sekarang nih.



Kemudian makan malam. Bukan makanan tradisi Melayu tapi lebih Western, tapi sekurang2nya makanan masak sendiri.

Grilled mixed herb chicken with fries

Mixed salad with mustard dressing, top with crunchy chicken strips and soft boiled egg.

Tapi dalam teringin dan mengidam makan masakan Melayu, ada satu lagi yang masih tergiang-ngiang dalam kepala. Lagu yang aku dengar kat TV di Solo. Hahaha...

Lagu oleh Ussy,Cinta kamu titik.

Catchy la pulak chorus dia. ;))

Mari nyanyi ramai2. Aku cinta kamu. Titik.

(It sounds funny the first time I heard it, but that chorus just keeps on playing in my head. Walawau..)

dan lagu nih. macam comel intro dia..

lagu oleh Armada band, cinta itu buta.

Solo, Indonesia

Aku jatuh cinta dengan Solo, Indonesia!

Pertama kali kali aku ke Indonesia semasa aku ke Bandung sama teman2 Februari 2009. Kali ini ke Solo sama famili semua. Bandung beda bangat dengan Solo.

Pertama kali menjejakkan kaki ke Solo, aku terpesona dengan cantiknya airport Solo. Dikelilingi sawah padi yang menghijau. Cantik ya Solo ini.

Aku lebih senang dengan Solo. Solo bandarnya lebih tenang, nyaman dan cantik bangat. Makanan jugak enak-enak. Kami sekeluarga menetap di Griya Teratai. Untuk harga yang sangat berpatutan, Griya memang sangat memuaskan. Rumah ini juga dihias cantik. Kecil, cuma sebelas bilik tapi sangat-sangat selesa. Seperti menginap dirumah sendiri. Staff-staff juga baik dan very friendly. It is a house renovated into a guest house.

Cantikkan Griya Teratai?

Solo tidak sepopular Jakarta atau Bandung. Mungkin kerana tempat itu banyak tempat berbelanja, tetapi tidak Solo. Solo lebih banyak tempat untuk kita menikmati 'culture' Indonesia. I am very facsinated especially when we went to Keraton Solo. Keraton itu maksudnya Istana Raja. Keraton ini sangat menakjubkan, penuh dengan sejarah-sejarah Raja-raja. Ada banyak barang lama yang unik. Dari tandu puteri raja, carriage kereta kuda, pengayuh kapal yang besar gile, senjata-senjata lama, dan pelbagai lagi yang usianya beratus2 tahun. Hebatkan?

Mengikut Pak pemandu pelancong.

Kawasan laman keraton. Sunyi sepi tempat nih.

Cuma dengar bunyi burung w/pun

kenderaan lalu lalang di sebelah.

Solo juga terkenal dengan makanan2 yang enak2. Contohnya Nasi gudeg, nasi liwet dan macam-macam lagi. Yang paling aku suka, Sate buntel. Dibuat dari daging kambing hancur. Dibakar dan di makan dengan sos kicap. Sedap sangat2!!. Ada juga kuih yang dipanggil serabi. Uhhhh...ini sedap. Macam apam balik tapi diisi dengan santan manis yang pekat. Sedap gila! Kami beli dua kotak untuk dibawa pulang.

Nasi gudeg istimewa.

Enak bangat.

Sate buntel

ini dipanggil apa ya?? xingat

ini pon sedap.

nasi yang dikeringkan, kemudian digoreng.

Ada yang manis atau masin

Orang2 Solo sangat baik. I really mean it. Tinggal di Solo 4 hari, aku seperti tidak mahu pulang. Seronok sangat disini. Hotelnya bagus, makanannya enak bangat, orang-orangnya baik-baik, bandarnya bersih. Living here wouldn't be such a bad idea eh. ;)

Terima kasih pada Anggun dan staff2 di Griya Teratai untuk layanan yang baik. Terima kasih buat Wahyu, kerna bawa kami jalan2 dan makan yang enak2.

Solo was great. Superb.

And I am definitely coming back again!

Salam sayang dari Kuala Lumpur buat orang2 Solo!

An apology, two kites and a picnic

First, an apology. I have been disappointing many of my friends' invitation, let it be a meeting, a simple lunch date, a gathering and mostly, wedding invitation. I'm sorry to have let you all down.

So I'm here, not to gave more excuses, but an apology sincerely from the bottom of my heart. I'm really really sorry. I know I've miss lots of plans and dates, especially wedding invitation, but believe me, I would've come if I can. I miss you guys SO much.

To Nieza, my dorm mate, I'm really sorry I miss your wedding. I miss the date, thought it was on the 27th when it was on the 21st. This I regret so much.To Nini, Sorry I didn't go to your Sis wedding but I did go to yours. That is the most important, right? To my x-classmates, sorry I didn't go to any of you weddings. To people who said Hey, sorry I've never reply. To my two closest lovely boyfriends, Sorry dah lama x lepak borak2 sampai pagi.

To everyone I've let down, again I'm sorry. I miss you and always love all of you. Like I said before, 'To those I love, I will always love'. So no worries, you guys are always on my mind.

And one more thing. This is me just asking for forgiveness, because I felt guilty. Please don't start giving sh#t like, 'Are you sick/dying question' okay? I'm fine.

Second, the picnic. I had a small gathering/picnic in Kepong. This bunch of people I have known since I was in Form 1/2/3. It was fun! I especially love 'flying the kite' part! I bet you guys don't know that I LOVE playing with kites! Wuhuuuu!

There were also loads and loads of food. Pizza, KFC, sandwiches, sliced watermelon and even a cake! I don't know why but I felt full, so I just a slice of cake and munch on watermelons. Had much much of fun. Enjoy the pics...

There are loads more, tapi malaslah. This is enough.

Year 2011, I will try my best to make it up to everyone. I'll try.

Chiow. Till we meet again. Hugs!!

New Year

This is how I spent my first day of the year 2011.

I woke up early, pick up my one year old step brother, for a walk in the park. Went back home when it's noon and cooked lunch. This time it is a bit special.

Not the normal bolognese, but this is a cheesy spagetti bolognese..uhuuu....

It's been a while since we cook/ate spaghetti. Delicious. hehehe... (masuk bakul angkut sendiri maa!)

And watched Star Trek. Awesome..

Live long and prosper. \\//

And went out with my brother for dinner.

Just like that. I just stay home. I don't like being with loads of people.

Have a happy new year!

yesterday, today and tomorrow

Owh..tomorrow is a new year.

Recipe from myresipi.com

Yesterday, I made this . I call this kuih 'Pau sambal'. Gave some to my neighbour and she asked if this is 'kuih tahun baru'? And I was so blur. Kuih tahun baru?? Uh.. no. I made this to finish my sambal leftover from last sunday's 'Nasi lemak'.

(I mean, who the hell make kuih tahun baru right?)

Uhh..then I realise it was a joke. A very bad attempt of making a bad joke. No wonder she laughed and I was just dead clueless. Sorry neighbour.

Today, my neighbour locked her son out of the house more than 6 hours. From noon till now. I know it's non of my business, but that poor boy. Last time I checked he was in the drain in front of his house. What a way to celebrate new year eh? And what could he have done to receive such punishment? Lucky me my parents don't believe in torturing your kids to make them good people. I think we all turned out okay.

If I were him, I would pura2 pengsan in front of the house, just to make her dead worried. Stay pengsan until she drive me to the nearest hospital. Wait until I'm in the Emergency room and start shouting, " She left me under the sun for 6 hours! You MEAN MEAN MOTHER!!!!". Hahaha... Padan muka.

Anyways, tomorrow's a new year.

To those I love, I will always love.

To the haters, sorry dude, don't think I remember any of you.

To everyone, may tomorrow be better than now.

HD in HP

Owhh... laptop rosak. To be exact my hard disk when kabuuushhh...

My laptop suddenly when blank. Asked my brother's friend to check it for me. You know, he is the computer geek. He said it was my hard disk. So I went to HP Centre to change for a new HD and reformatted that thing too.

All was told by my Dad. Step by step on what to do when I arrive at the service centre.

Honestly, if you asked me, What's wrong with my Laptop? I wouldn't have any clue!! If consider from one to ten level, my knowledge on how computer works, would be a negative two! Yup, I am that dumb! It's the same on my knowledge about cars. I know how to turn in on/off, how to use simple software and that's about it. Hahahaha...

Okay. That's it. I just wanted to say my HD went dead and all is fix.

Till then. Buhbye.
