A Homemaker’s Diary

We went out yesterday after work. Hubby asked whether I want to watch movie in Sunway..yeay..since Babylon A.D is the latest movie I thought it will be a good idea to watch it..but damn, it was terrible..no strong storyline, makes Vin Diesel look stupid in that movie and the ending was like blekk..apa punya citer la ni..huhu..

But we managed to make it to Tony Roma’s for my teringin-nak-mkn-western craving before the show, I was greedy enough takmo share Full Rack with Hubby, in the end I ate like one rib, Hubby ate 2 and tapau the balance of 3 ribs..heh! Oh, I love their fried mushroom..

Still got around 15 minutes before the show and we went inside Parkson, never know yesterday was their Bonuslink day, got myself 2 more pants and briefs…tengok2 handbag but it’s not really necessary, still couldn’t find any blouse that I like but OK la, janji ada seluar muat nak pakai with my current bulging tummy..then after the movie told Hubby nak makan nasik pulak..

Since we were already in the vicinity of Subang area, Nasi Kandar Pelita at SS15 will be my choice. Actually what I want to do is to check the DVD shop opposite of the restaurant..heh! Got 6 more new DVDs…yeay seronok…I got Wanted, Hancock, The Deception, Mummy, Atonement and can’t remember another one..

Well, that’s it the update for today. I am still contemplating whether to go out or not today..heh! The long weekend started early for me..can’t help feeling all the glow inside…ceh!

I’m done thinking whether to make raya cookies for this year or just to buy..in the end I decided to just buy from the usual seller, my senior from school. At least I know how the cookies taste like so it will save me from the embarrassment - kuih raya tak sedap pon, rupa je cantik, rasa hampeh..bla bla..These days the 50pcs cookies usually cost around RM23-27, but when you calculate all other hidden cost - time, energy, effort spent doing the cookies, I think it is not worth it to make my own raya cookies.

If I were to make my own kuih raya perhaps it will be cornflake madu as it is the easiest and doesn’t test my skill with the dough. Not that Hubby is so fond of eating raya cookies, it’s just an obligation to have some for the celebration and perhaps for Hubby to bring to his office later.

And if I feel like it maybe I can bake a moist choc cake for Hubby to bring to whatever Raya pot luck the office might hold after the festive season. So do you think 5 types of raya cookies will be enough? heh!

After a long break from the eBay shopping, I am now being bitten by the shopping bugs again..huhu!

I found this great looking organizer, which I feel like buying (at least I can keep the work-in-progress papers inside), although it won’t fit all my scrapbooking stuffs but still it is an organizer to start with..heh!

Check out the picture.

Plus the same seller has the Making Memories Journaling Book-Noteworthy range that I have been looking for. Talk about saving $$ in combined shipping..hehe!

Blame it on this bergedil picture, found in one of my picture folders…huhu..Actually I was looking for a picture of me and then I found this picture of soto set I made in January.

So when Hubby came home, I took the car and went to Jusco to get daging burger, potato and nasi impit Adabi. I was cooking while watching CSI and Ghost Whisperer when suddenly I realized the cooking gas was out at 12am ++…waaaaa…where to buy gas at that time..even 7E don’t have gas stock..so in the end I resorted to fry the bergedil and chicken pieces in the ever so slow old rice cooker…if only I have deep fryer..huhu!

With all the trouble that I had to go through, we managed to eat the soto at 2:30am. Hubby decided to work from home today since I woke up at 7am, rushing to the toilet because of terrible diarhea..must be the combination of too much 100 Plus and sambal kicap or whatever I ate all day yesterday..huhu!

I still don’t have the cooking gas but Hubby already had his lunch by reheating his bowl of soto in the microwave. With the diarhea incident, I supposed I wouldn’t be able to eat the soto for the second round..sob! sob!

I’ve been meaning to update this blog on Monday afternoon but I was busy chatting and doing laundry. Later I was in the kitchen cooking dinner - masak lemak kobis, goreng cencaru, ayam masak lemak cili padi. Then while watching House I spring clean the bedroom. Have been planning to do that for ages, with all the habuk under the bed..yuckss..so I swept and vacuumed and then once done I took shower and have my dessert of agar-agar merah..heh!

So now since Astro is out because of the rain (I was watching THS - Nicole Kidman), I think I might as well update this blog. After all you might never know when the opps in PPP will give the chance to earn extra USD11-15 so I might as well prepare the interim post..

We went to watch Zohan on Sunday, not that I am a big fan of Adam Sandler but I think he looks better with that old fashion Paul Mitchell’s Avalon hairstyle. It makes me wonder though what is his real hair looks like? Is it curly?

Forget about Adam Sandler, let’s see what is the plan for this week. I need to schedule appointment for check up this Friday, then if the time permits, I want to renew the license for the IT company. Have to check with SSM website if they allow renewal to be done in the post office otherwise it will be a hassle to go to Shah Alam to renew the license…huhu!

Then on weekend we have plan for more stroller, playpen and baby cot window shopping. I am like 80% towards buying Maclaren Techno XT but since Hubby said Graco has better review, we might as well go and check it ourselves.

Apart from that I am still not sure whether to get IKEA baby cot or the less expensive one from Sweet Cherry…(found one sample in Jusco and I kind of like the white cot) Even if we are not buying it now, at least after Hari Raya I already have what to buy in the list.

That’s all for Monday update…another week to go before we start fasting..eat people, eat..heh!
