1 2 3 Testing

Test only maa

Holloween treat

Finally meet up with Jothy for yesterday. What a luck, Galaxie magazine having free screening of scary movies. As we are there early, tengok GRUDGE... off course I scream .. tapi tak la takut sangat.. exactly like cerita Ju-on.

Planned to see flight plan.. dah habis, so catch WAR of the WoRLD.. memang tension dengar si DAKOTA Fanning screaming in the movie... At the scene where people looking at the EMP storm or at the tripod before being zapped. Remind me of tsunami video and also the time when I was in Indiana sometimes back in 1995 kot.

First day of arriving, TV declare a tornado warning, we are suppose to stay in the basement of the apartment. Well I'm new there, and know no one, I told myself, just look out for the tornado and when it approaching the apartment from the window or TV, i will lari down if one datang. Off course I didn't see any tornado coming.

The next day, I was told, the tornado come from the opposite way .. but of course we are not in the path of the tornado. Feel so BODOH too, for being too smart.

btw I am still confused of the story .. what actually killed the tripod? birds or bacteria?

Ayam percik and rendang kerang!

I haven't been cooking real food since I come back from Penang. However, since mom had her eye operation (replaced lense) I've been trying my hand on cooking.

Simple chicken soup.. its delicious ..

Fry chopped garlic and thinly sliced young ginger until aromatic, add water, add potatoes(sliced) let it boiled, add chicken & salt, reduce the heat and let it simmer until cooked.

I seldom use onion or shallot in my cooking, garlic is enough

And yesterday i cook roast chicken and rendang kerang.. Unfortunately the trusted spy camera tertinggal kat office so no picture

Roast chicken ( i made two)
Preheat oven at 190 degree celcius (ahha i don't know the oven tu guna celcius or farenheit)

Pound or Blendered dry peppercorn coarsely. Set aside first. Pound young ginger and heaps of garlic. Wash chicken. Combined the pounded mixture plus salt with a little bit of cooking oil (butter can be used too) Rub all over chicken.. no need to poke hole in the poor chicken body la.. sudah mati ..

Roast until golden.. yummy.. The oily dripping can be turn into tasty gravy too..

REndang kerang.
4 kilogram of kerang, rebus and take out the isi only.. Lucky we have Mak Mini to do this, else, my nails will be ruined.

Santan - for diet purpose, i kotak is enough la.
2 tablespoon of kerisik kelapa (fry fresh grated coconut until brown and then pound until it produce oil)
Salt and one tablespoon of gula melaka (or gula kabong)

To be pounded (blendered)
A handful of dry red chilies (soak it first)
a handful of bird eye chili (pedas ni)
Tiga serai
satu buku garlic.
one big red onion....... all blend until fine.

CAra..
Put 3 tablespoon of frying oil, fry the pounded ingredient, until berbau wangi, add santan and kerisik plus the gula kabong. Can add one slice of asam keping too.. stir stir stir.. then add the kerang... stir stir until thick..

Sliced daun kunyit finely and add.

Then I asked MAk mini to watch over the fire and I catch my Korean serial aahhaha. So she jaga until the rendang thicken. walla its done

Verdict

Roast chicken - tender and juicy, need a bit more of salt (puasa cannot taste la) chef of all cook aka my mom, said should be more crispy etc etc... The kids love it.

Rendang kerang - look better and taste better than what adik buy at pasar malam. Mind you for two sendok its RM4. Again tak cukup masin. but overall good.

HAHAHA chef shilla is emerging to take over chef of all cook place as champion in cooking.

Tickers

Surf around and found this website that enable you to make tickers...
so here are one to mark my time to confirmation .. well they don't have anything on job confirmation so i used the relationship ticker..

Blue hippo impersonation

the two youngest kid ali and amir


Ain't I cute?

Cheeky Ali


Look at us and the hamster's habitrail.

Feet Fetish

For foot fetish out there... another one of mine taken while waiting at Medan airport

Punishment

The kids being punished for ...
1. Torturing a hapless lizard.
2. The eldest Abang Wa instructed Body to take a knife.
3. Body took the knife and give it to Bang Chik.
4. Abang Chik severed the lizard head with the knife.

so their punishment, Onn asked them to stand up straight with hand holding their ears. Off course Opah masuk campur and asked Onn not to do that to her cucu... NAik lemak la bebudak tu, anyway.. I think they had to stand up for at least twenty minutes before I asked them to mandi so that can get ready to break fast and then off they go to tuition.

p/s we do not know which knife is used to cut the lizard in two.

Relocated

This is the view from my new office at PWTC, actually the Menara UMNO. I have some reservations about moving here, but what can you do. Kalau boss suruh, kena pergila. The cheapest parking is at hentian putra, RM3 per entry, and walking distance from carpark to level four to take lift, already take a good ten minutes.. mind you ada stairs lagi...

So I have to leave extra early, so that i am able to log in on time. Dahla nak on pc to login for work takes at least five minutes sebab notebook slow to boot up... all this can contribute to stress.

Oklah I'm sleepy, but wanna finished my reports ASAP.



and this is the sungai yang i tak tahu namanya.. this could be sungai kelang or sungai gombak hehehehe its right there next to PWTC and the bomba place. They said got big fish there...

hamster duo

Sonic and cutie taking a nap. Cannot take a clear picture of them. They are very active creatures.. I am unable to hand handle them. How I bath them, put a small bucket of water, add the special shampoo and sort of throw them inside.. swirl the bucket (yeah!! its cruel, but what i can do.. they starts to smell) a couple of time, and use tissues to dry them and put back inside the habitrail.


The two kids doing impersonation of the hamsters...... More like stich hehehe

Healthy Meals - err Hearty Meals

If anyone ever wonder how my meals look like. Here a pic.
This consist of mashed eggs with butter, pepper and salt on some crispy salad. YUMMY!
