Akak akak.. makcik makcik sekalian.. hari nih kita belajar cara membuat Buah Melaka!!.. so get ure pens and papers ready..


Mula mula puan puan.. kita sediakan gula melaka by cutting it into small cubes..

kacau bancuhan tadi sehingga menjadi sticky consitency..cam boleh buat jemput jemput tuh



lepas tuh kita jemput jemputkan adunan tadi into little balls.



then puan puan, kita stuff the little balls with bits of gula melaka yg telah kita sediakan awal tadi

My sweat is fresh from all the pushing and shoving and my clothes are still wet from the rain... suasana yg suram akhirnya bertukar gamat.kelam kabut.dan seakan -akan meriah.keadaan tidak terkawal kerana terlalu ramai org yg berkunjung..
begitulah suasana di kediaman rasmi perdana menteri..setiap jabatan kerajaan menghantar sekurang kurangnya satu bas -fully loaded...... Semua berpusu pusu untuk melawat jenazah Allahyarham Datin Seri Endon..
when i arrived there were throngs of Mercedes.. Harriers.. Perdana's lining up towards the entrance...wanita wanita berpakaian serba hitam.. makcik makcik berbaju kurung putih.. dan datin datin bertudung separuh kepala..
Malangnya walaupon setelah lebih sejam menunggu..dan dapat sampai di porch di depan pintu kediaman rasmi,saya tidak sempat melawat jenazah.. Di sini nampak sekali kelemahan pihak pengurusan dalam menanggani crowd yg besar..The obvious being, where the same door used as the entrance also became the main exit route..
So in the end, shamely it all become one celebrity spotting event .. trying to guess all the Menteri's names and matching them to the right kementerian.. or the right wife..To name a few...saya berkesempatan melihat Datuk Najib dan Isterinya... Datuk Nadzim dan Norjuma (which i have to say is the coolest and simplest "Datin" ive ever seen.. she wasnt wearing any of those lip-lap shiney dressess or even a glamourous jubah.. but just a simple..white baju kurung).. Datuk Samy Vello.. Datuk Azmi( who looked so macho and handsome despite his age) beside his new bride Normala Samsudin..( who was looking gorgeous as always)..Wan Zaleha RAdzi and her husband.. and so many more..
I would say one of the incidents which did cause a frenzy was when Datuk Jamaluddin Jarjis stood on a stool. or was it a table.. shouting on the top of his voice.. trying to control the crowd. it was slightly funny... but it made me wonder what the men in blue were doing....How come it took a Menteri to do the job..

Apa apa pon.. seluruh rakyat Malaysia turut bersedih di atas pemergian Allahyarham.. dan saya pasti semua juga bersimpati dengan Datuk Seri Abdullah yg hilang wanita yg di kasihi..( im sure everyone could imagine how it feels to lost of a loved one)..
televisyen juga menyiarkan pelbagai rancangan rancangan khas..
Anyway as i was walking down the hill towards the big gate.. i heard someone saying that Datuk Ghafar Baba also passed away today... but that has not been verified yet.


apa apa pon.. semoga roh Allahyarham dicucuri rahmat...
..Al Fatihah..

Food Fest


Feeling a bit adventures and wanting a change in my normal bukak puasa dishes,i booked a table at the AlMarjan KLCC.I was caught up in all the ramadhan buffet frenzy last week and not wanting to miss the action.. i surfed the net for good iftar locations..trying to find the right one within my budget

dont be fooled.. theres a lot of meat under all that veggie
Apparently the most advertised buffets are the ones in hotel restaurants with a price tag ranging from RM60 to Rm85 per head.. Bloody ell..Im sure i cant eat RM80 worth of food could I?..so stumbling upon this review..i picked Al-Marjan..True to its review, at RM38++ Id say it is worth the money

that floating thingy in my tea mint leaves
still..although the main dishes were unique.. the choice of kuehs were not as it was mainly traditional malay kuehs..but we had 3 cold drinks to choose from and there was free flowing mint tea.It was actually normal tea which u mix yourself but they provide some fresh mint leaves for that special taste...The shop is situated opposite of Kelantan delights.. and we had very good seats( it pays to call n book in advance)..The place has a calming ambiance and it made a good place to lepak.. and chat after a hefty meal..

sometimes i purposely drown myself into some simple tedious bit of html/css while listening to slow songs..

sometimes i like to make simple things complicated... just for kicks..
it has such a weird calming effect..

The day before

One of the things about Ramadhan Eve is that everybody goes on an eating orgy...
it could be laksa for breakfast..
koey teow ladna for lunch..
and maybe beriyani for dinner..

the makcik cafe said she actually had to cook rice 3 times today as the demand for nasi gorengs..was extra high ..

yeah people tend to binge when they know theyd have to restrain themselves from all the pleasures of life tomorrow...

but one good thing about today is that some people are extra generous...
soooo.. lunch was on one of the big bosses today... heee hee...

so in true spirit of fasting.. i will wake up at 5 and have a few raisins .(and people wonder why im skinny..). and some water...i dont think id have the strength to get out of bed.. walk downstairs..open the fridge..heat up the food.. eat..and go back to bed..unlike some people up north who have burgers anggur..or chicken curry with smoked haddock for sahur...perh...

So.. muslimin dan muslimat sekalian..
Selamat Menjalani Ibadah Puasa!...Dont be naughty!!
