Empire Strikes Back! 151111

Darlings! So mesti u all tau kan what happened to Empire before this? Of course of course, EVERYBODY knows about it lah kan. As I was sort of disconnected with the outside world pretty much so these past few months, nevertheless, news DO travel back to me. Via technology of course. Thru my lappy & iP4, I get pretty much informed about what's happening with the rest of the world. Sometimes, I know more than my hubs who's out merata everyday. Teehee.

Oklah, I do digress a lot lah. Talking about Empire kan, yeap. So, 151111 is the re-opening! Weehoo! And I was there meninjau kawasan and got my eyebrows threaded at long last @ Beautique by Glitters. I don't know why I have to wait till Empire re-opens to get my eyebrows threaded. I could just go to any Indian bridal shop to get it done cheap. RM 5-7 je usually. Tapi perempuan ini nakkkkk jugak buat kat Beautique, nak jugak Sarala tu yang buatkan kening ni. Ngada much? Heeeee!

Since time was short, as I had to fetch/pick-up my sons from school and to elakkan dari terperangkap dalam hujan lebat, my Empire Strikes Back trip was a short one. I perasan Ole2 Bali, Serai, Suchan, Tarbush belum bukak lagi. WHISK dah bukak, ramai orang masa I intai tadi. I tak sempat singgah. My kids wanted to eat Gelato Fruity, so we headed there. And of course, I had to buy some pastries at The Loaf ;-) 

That's about it. Happy that Empire is back. Another lepak place for me and kiddies other than Subang Parade. Variety at last, haha.

 They even spruced up the parking lot!

Tangs Xmas Sale window display seem to attract my littlest so much.

 "When do I get to build a real snowman, Mommy?'
Err, u belajar pandai2, nnt belajar obersee eh.

 Knock2!
Who's there?
Ellie.
Ellie who?
ELEPHANT!

 "Brrrrr, so cold, Mommy."
Ye, lah tu.

 "Dreaming of a white Christmas."
Me too, my sons, me too.
:-)

 Nyums!

 Double Nyums.

Kopak!
Burung marah punya pasal.
Haih.




C ya again, soon!
Ta raaaaaaaaa!!!

Nearly Four Months of Absence.

Heya Folks!!

I have missed blogging! And blogwalking too, obviously. Rindulah nak baca cerita kawan-kawan semua, and admittedly, really miss all the photos that u people must have posted on your blogs during the past four months. Yeah! I love looking at photos in blogs. Suka baca content jugak tau, bukan merely tengok gambar aje. I got to know through Twitter that ramai yang tak berapa berblogging sekarang. Is that true? Orang kata many prefer updating their Twitter now instead of blogs and FB, and prefer to share photos through Instagram.

Yea, I pun actually dalam tak berblogging ni, memang active juga Twittering ni, and Instagram-ing. Maklumlah, benda tengah trending sekarang kan. Furthermore, Twitter ni you just have to post short messages with not more than 140 characters. Short & sweet gittew. 

But, seriously kan, not everything is best expressed through twitter tau. And some questions pun are not best answered through that channel. Tak puas, tak lengkap dan tak mendalam. Chewah! Jadiknya, the best platform nak berpok-pek is still through blogs. 

Now that I have somewhat recollect myself after what had transpired dalam masa empat bulan lepas ni, I think it's high time I'm back blogging. Banyak dah backlog nih! Memang macam-macam cerita yang mahu dikongsi bersama all of you. Suka, duka, masam, manis, pahit, semualah! Yang dapat dikongsi lah ye, cerita dalam kain still tak boleh kongsi lah kan. 

Anyway, today is the first day of SPM 2011! All the best to all candidates, especially to my cousin brother AA in Shah Alam. Best wishes to you!

Oh and, yesterday was also my beloved Bonda's _ _th birthday! Love her with all my heart. She is truly a gem. She instilled in me so many important values since childhood days till now. I admire her strength in overcoming adversities in life, and her warm and cheerful nature, but most of all, her ability to get things done fast, a trait I still have yet to master! Haha! I want and wish for many many more years together with my Ratu,  my mother.....

As my Mommy is popular, she was celebrated three times since last Friday. Her friends in school had a special cake-cutting ceremony for her during their annual dinner function. Her best friends also treated her to a birthday tea on Saturday, and we also treated her to a steamboat dinner last night. Hope she enjoyed it.

Also folks, end of year school hols is fast approaching. What are your plans? I have looked into some holiday programs for the kiddos but have yet to decide on which ones to register to. But intensive swimming for my No 1 & 2 dah decide dah. They have missed their training for nearly 4 months dah. So, will start again soon. 

Enough blabbering for now, I have to get my arse off this chair and start preparing to cook lunch. Easy-peasy aje, thinking of Sup Ikan Merah today. Till then, ta raaaaaa!

GOOD TO BE BACK! Much love from SHM ;-)


I'm still as chubby-licious as ever! Muahaha!!


Have A Good Day!


My Mom's Birthday Steamboat Dinner.


And I still love talkin' bout FOOD! Yeehaa! ;-p

Liverpool FC Asia Tour 2011!

Had the opportunity to watch Liverpool vs Malaysia in Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil last Saturday and boy did I enjoy myself! To the MAX I tell ya'! I have never watched a football game live in a stadium before, not even when I was studying back in the UK. (Dulu tgk dalam tv ada lah, mana boleh duduk UK tak tgk football langsung kan. Lagipun, masa tu David Beckham & Micheal Owen muda gila baru nak naik, handsome!!) I was always like, 'Ehh? Footie? Tak minatlah. Malas panas2 sesak2 tu.' Yeah, macam tu lah reaksi I before. But over the past few years ni, I started watching games on tv, most probably terikut-ikut jugalah dengan my sons and hubs kan. All boys team kan kat rumah ni. And lately, been following juga our Harimau Malaya's progress. Jadinya, when my sis presented us with those Premier tixx, we were terribly excited! Especially hubs lah, being a fan of Liverpool for years. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and I was happy to be able to share my first ever experience with my son. It was his first ever game too! =)

Enjoy the pics!

Nasi Roadblock 2.0

KL Crackdown/Lockdown and the illegal rallies plus massive roadblocks around my beloved Klang Valley deterred most of us from venturing out too far from our own homes. I am sad for my peace loving and beautiful country Malaysia, for the events that had to take place on the 9th of July 2011.

Not to elaborate on yesterday's bad memories, I just want to show what I prepared for my family yesterday for dinner.



This dish I named Nasi Roadblock 2.0 . One good thing resulted from yesterday's staying in the house for most of the day, when I cooked instead of eating out like my family usually does on Saturdays =)

Roadblocks deterred us from venturing out, so I made Nasi Roadblock 2.0 to commemorate the event. Hehe.

On a more serious note, it is my utmost wish, like most of my fellow Malaysians I believe, is for a peaceful Malaysia, for us, and for our children, Ameen.

Adam's New Pet.

My Adam came back from school with a new 'pet'.



A BLUE hedgehog! Isn't he a cutie?

Adam carry it around ever so gently in his palm and made a home for it, in Ammar's Ferrari cap! He said the little hedgehog likes it there as it's safe and warm.

Wonder what he'll feed it with come tea time?

My Autobots!

Baru dapat opportunity pergi tengok Transformers yesterday. Nowadays nak tengok wayang, mesti bawa all four sekali. Nak tinggalkan dengan my mom, kesian my mom pulak. Dia pun penat dengan her canteen and housework. My dad pulak tak berapa sihat. Nak tak nak, bawak jugalah si kecik tu.



Ni lah my Autobots! :) Bukan main seronok dorang posing dengan Optimus Prime tu. Mommy malu-malu pulak nak posing sekali.

Best, we really enjoyed the show. But me and hubs tak dapat concentrate sangat, cos take turns layan si kecik tu sekejap masuk sekejap keluar dari panggung! Aiyayai! Hahaha!




Habis semua nak set botol air and bekas popcorn Transformers. Layan je la.




Ni dia budak kecik takleh dok diam tu. Lepas tengok wayang, dia makan ais krim semangkuk. Pastu jadi ulat bulu lagi menggedik sini sana :-)

Memang berbaloi.

I dah sebulan tak makan white rice. Even brown rice pun maybe twice a week. Memanglah tak kurus pun, but definitely tak rasa 'berat' sangat. Entahlah, mood nasi tak ada.

Tapi, pagi tadi pergi breakfast dengan my mom kat Hatinie. Terus rembat Nasi Kerabu ;)



Extra budu ye. I makan with solok lada & telur masin je. Nyam nyam!

Nak pegi Klate la, makan Nasi Kerabu. Uish, bestnyaaaa.....

Celebrate with the Dinosaurs Part Deux

Question is: Are there any more dinosaurs?

You Betcha!!!



Take a walk in a dark mystical place where the dinosaurs reside....



You can even take photos with them.



This is a favourite also, other than Long Neck and T-Rex. This is Triceratops.



And here are Baby Triceratops about to hatch... Shhhhhhh, be quiet and still now...



And remember this kids: Please walk, don't run. Cos Mommy really cannot run fast anymore to catch up with ya'! (Ahem, as IF Mommy could ever run fast -ngee-)



Look, he really look kinda friendly. *pat pat*



Owhhhhhhhhh fossils!




Owhhhhhh bones!!



Bye now Dinosaurs! Out we go now...



More knowledge to chew. Absorb! Absorb!



Cool stuff!



Eckkkk! Hurting my eyes lah. Very bright!



Whoaaaaa! Space travel anyone?



Rest kejap. Penat lah.



Kuasa angin.



Robotics.



Sorting out.



Hands-on experience.



Skodeng? Peeping Toms?



Look at that! Worth peeping no? Teehee.



Engrossed!



Yep, very much engrossed.



After 3 hours of exploration, we got these! Our own Dinosaurs! Weehee!



And the wee one only wanted the glitter ball that could light up.



On the way back to Nana's place, bought Cuppacakes by Wondermilk for candle blowing!

Till next post!
