Dafi @ SRK Kg. Tunku (link)

Got an sms from Ayu (my mengaji mate cum ustazah's niece n now, blogging buddy) last Saturday while I was 'stuffing myself' at INTEKMA's jamuan raya :

"Salam Kak Amy. Selamat Hari Raya! Just cme back from my old primary school 4 their minggu keusahawanan. X sangka Dafi is here. Terus teringat kat u... Hehhhehhe...."

But i was particularly 'touched' by this one :
".....I must compliment that he did well handling the crazy budak-budak kecik crowd! Derang berebut dgn dia sampai atas stage, but dia maintain jer.
Do pas dis compliment 2 him...."

- well done, Dafi!!!

To have a glimpse of the performance, kindly click here. Thx Ayu...

ps : Macam pernah ku lihat gadis yang ber-tshirt putih itew (bersama camera nya)... Tapi di mana ya??? LOL :)

Neuhaus chocolate - Thx Mamu Aziz

This is a belated posting. Been wanting to post it for quite some times, apparently belum sempat - pictures dah lama upload dalam draft but i just haven't had the chance to finish it.

Punya lah lama, got this chocolate masa Abg Aziz just got back from Sudan, n now Abg Aziz dah balik Sudan... Kalau nak dihitung pips yang mendatang, harus dah berjuta-juta lemon, kan Abg Aziz??? hehhehe... Tapi kalau trade kecik... well, no comment la....
---- larik!!! Sebelum kena balun dengan Sham... hhahahhaha....

Back to citer chocolates... This is the chocolate that we got. Souvenir from Abg Aziz...

I've always been craving for chocolates - dark chocolate precisely. Nak nak lagi Praline... Nyummy... Its just the matter that harga praline ni tersangat la x bley bla... So hanya mampu tengok je la...

Actually, Amy dah lama idamkan Neuhaus ni. Masa pergi KLIA hr 2, tengok je praline dalam display, rasa macam teringin, but i just put the tot out of my mind straight away. Just imagine it cost a fortune per 100 gram? And 100 gram is just 3-4 pieces of pralines...

Thank goodness i had some from Leonida's of Mid Valley.. Itupun rezeki coz ada event n ada budget lebih... That already cost almost 30 bucks per 100 grams... What more if it's Neuhaus? i don't even dare to have a look at the price list - knowing that i couldn't afford... Probably RM 50 / 100 gram, or might even be more...


Sham : Yang, balik kul brapa?
Me : 4.30 ++ (bulan poser balik awal la)... Dah balik amik abg aziz ke?
Sham : Dah. Dia bagi chocolate
Me : Again? Wow! Choc apa?
Sham : Ferrero Rocher...
Me : Nyummy...
Sham : Ada lagi
Me : Choc apa?
Sham : Xtau la penah dengar ke x... -Neuhaus (sore poyos gils)
Me : (Trying to recall things) OMG!!!!!!!!!! Hello... itu bukan chocolate la! itu PRALINE la ******!!!

Dark, Milk & White...
Dark chocolate??? Nak pengsan jap!!!

Even the packaging took my breath away...

No words to describe- it's simply marvelous!!!


Comes with description...
Image x too clear as it's scanned, so just click for a better view...
Its even arranged accordingly...

Abg Aziz, Sham kata dalam banyak-banyak shape, yang 2 ni paling seswai dengan situation forex uols... Macam taw2 jer...

Euro & Dollar...
Satu dark choc (my favourite), satu milk choc (Sham's Favourite)
- significant sgt... hehheheh


Other gift from Abg Aziz

1st class pouch from Emirates...

Thanx Abg Aziz - terima kasih daun keladi


- semoga murah rezeki Abg Aziz & dapat pips banyak-banyak lagi...
(sorry letak gambar ni coz ni je yang ada - masa open house lupa bawak camera lak)

Hari Malang Sedunia - Keretaku disaman!!!


Keretaku disaman!!!

Went to Karangkraf just now to settled some task pertaining work n DFC. I parked outside as the carpark inside were all occupied. Menang banyak pun cars parked outside the premise. I was there quite lama - sempatla jumpa Nubhan who were there for some some photo shoot or something...

Then when I came out, I saw the car in front of me ada ticket at the windscreen, in fact all of the cars kena saman - which includes mine of coz! I was like - damn it!!! Not another 1!!! Dah la my previous saman pending that caused delay to my road tax renewal.. Now another disaster...

Then when i arrived at the office, ada urgent meeting regarding customer complaint...

Plus, another task pertaining the preparation process of Marketing Plan 2009. So i've to come out with my action plan by this week as my superior needs to submit by end of the month... Errgh!!! Why everything pun by this week? Helpppppppp................

Then when i called Fendy, found out that he almost got summoned 2... Thank goodness he didn't...

Our little 'Tailoring Project'

Well... Finally Lyn n myself had settled out 'tailoring mission' (mission katanya... walaupun...) for our upcoming DFC Fiesta Aidilfitri thingy...

Met each other at Plaza Alam Central during lunch time. Sort of accompanied her to find material. As for me, i already had a number which Mum gave during my birthday (x tempah lagi haha), so i might as well make use of that. Plus some advice from my advisor Ms Lyn Norell aka Lyn Madagie, i kinda mixed n matched it with another material... Thx for the idea, Lyn...

Later in the evening (despite the rain & unfriendly traffic), sent those material for tailoring dengan gigihnya.. Now, just wait for it to be ready... lallala...

Trivia :
Baju Mak Buih meletups uols... As for me, biasa jer - something simple n common... Enough said...

Authentic

There's nothing so special about my Raya this year... Biasa-biasa jer...

I spent my 1st raya going back to my Father in law's hometown in Sg. Besar, Selangor...
Coincidently, it's nearby my Mum's hometown in Sabak Bernam (border Selangor & Perak)...
Balik hari jer... Nevertheless, I found something quite interesting to share with...

We made our way at approximately 10.30am, after Solat Raya, bermaaf-maafan thingy n makan.. Actually kinda reluctant due to our condition yang maha karya mengantuks... We just had around 2 hours of sleep, at around 3am we went shopping at Jalan TAR till dawn... Best gils... Lelong x hengat as they were about to close... Just imagine, i manged to get a pair of baju kurung 'Angkasawan' (katanya... walaupun) at only 25 bucks.... Lallalalla...

After bergilir-gilir driving, we finally arrived in Sungai Besar. Selepas menziarah pusara Atuk n Nenek, we made our way to his kampung house...

Rumah Kampung di Parit 2 Barat, Sg. Besar...
Surrounded by sawah padi...


My father in law (left) with his brother, Angah Hashim...

Darling hubby & Mum...

Authentic dishes -
kuah kacang, rendang daging & gulai ayam...

Nyummy nyummy...


Traditional pulut himpit / pasung or something...
M x sure of the name...
My colleague, Yasmin kata its called 'Ketupat Dakap' in Kelantan...


Made by glutinous rice (pulut) n rebus dalam santan...
Wrapped in banana leave...


Even the plates are authentic...

Kuih Bangkit

Kuih Putu Kacang / Koya

'Kampung version' of swiss roll... LOL
Contained jam inside instead of cream...
