Craving for Yee Sang

Biler CNY season, must have yee sang. Even Jeeb yang dolu first time try tak suker...now over the years dah suker! Yay! I called KSA tanya whether yee sang available for take away and they said ader! Weeehooo excited! Usually i bought at Madam Kwan but i think their portion siket and price pon slightly lg mahal. Since tau KSA pon ada baik beli kat sini jer. Jeeb blanja just because i was craving for it...suhweet!

Dah siap susun all the ingredients on the plate. The ingredients are mostly thin slices of pickled vegetables and crackers.

Every one in the house malam tuh sporting nak join to toss the yee sang just for the fun of it. All of us gathered around the dining table with a pair of skewers (sbb chopstick x cukup) and ready to attack. Bising sumer shouting good luck phrases and also ridiculous wishes because the higher you toss, the higher your good luck gituh. Hahahah it was fun. But the best part was biler makan laaaa :) Tak sempat nak amik gambar.

GLC Gathering at Swensen's, Avenue K

GLC lunch gathering at Avenue K. Location dipilih sbb ramai yang bekerja area sini and since i'm on leave bleh laa lari sana kejap. Tapik pegi kejap ponnnn dah stress ngan traffic jam kat jalan tun razak tuh. Dahler smart tunnel toll naik jadik RM3, if i were still working kat tetengah KL mmg lagik terasa pinch nyer. Attendance kali nie dimeriahkan oleh Kak Fara, Shara, Mas, D and Dani. Kak Mauzee tetiba sampai buat seprais. So that makes 7 GLC members including me. Edeline also joined because dah lama x jumpe dia...so it was like FDS (project) gathering gittew.

 

Sesambil borak of course banyak selingan activity lain like copy movie and isik buku baru GLC 2016. Sealed our 2016 resolution and hopefully by end of this year or early next year we can gather again to read it! Or maybe kene jugak buat session mid year review tuh in case we were out of track of our resolution :)

Group photo time tgh tunggu food. Before memasing comot or terluper.

Some of the food we ordered.

 

  

Dengan paperbag H&M pon beria posing hahaha. Bak kater edeline lom lagik paperbag Chanel. Ekceli i got the paperbag because K.Fara kasik gift for baby Zafeer siap ada cute box lagik kat dalam tuh. Excited...sucker for box and paperbag gituh. Group photo with everyone before sumer departed. Mas and Dani balik opis, Shara pon nk balik opis tp sempat singgah H&M dolu shopping.

 

While me, D, Edeline and Kak Fara continued coffee session at Urbean.

Belanja birthday girl a slice of cake. Sambung borak2 pasal kejer, benti kejer, tukar kejer.

 

 

Coffee and art. Love :)

Balik tuh singgah kejap H&M home section. Aarghh banyaknyer benda i feel like buying! But short of time because i need to beat the traffic. Time nak balik carik autopay pon sesat barat, luckily i was with D. Kalo bepeloh sorang2 mmg stress. So by the time kluar tuh masuk jalan tun razak mmg dah jam tambah lak ngan ujan lebat. Dabel stress! Took more than 1 hour to reach SA because it was raining all the way. Lega dapat tgk muka the kids again because rasa gilti cam kluar lama sangat.

[Instagram of the week] Part 1

Who lurveeee stationeries put up your hands!! Here are 15 signs that prove stationery is your one true love. Omai! I almost scored perfect 15. I have a soft spot for notebooks, pens with different size tip, colored pens, pencil color, sharpie, highlighter, gift tag, cards, pencil case, ribbons and tapes, memo/ sticky notes, wrapping papers, stickers, scrapbook items etc.

1. Your cupboard is full of untouched untouched diaries, glitter pens and pouches. You have kept them safely in a corner. They remain untouched, nicely packed as if they were bought just yesterday, but you have never used them and you probably never will. Your excuse of not using them is that ‘they are too good to use.’ 
2. People think you waste money on buying unnecessary stuff like paper clips and colorful pens.  
3. People collect stamps and fridge magnets, but you collect erasers. 
4. At office, your work desk is full of cute stuff like paper clips and sticky notes.  
5. You’re extra cautious when writing in a new notebook. It has to look perfect. Your handwriting needs to look like print! 
6. You're a regular at the stationery store in the mall and you spent hours browsing because it's difficult to make a choice on which to buy.
7. As a kid, the only thing you loved about getting promoted to a new class was that you got to buy new books, notebooks, pens and pencils.   
8. You would cover your notebooks and sharpen your pencils. And you would always keep extra stationery in your school bag for emergencies. 
9. You love collecting scotch tape/ washi tape with unique patterns and designs. Because the every-day brown ones are so passe.  
10. You hate it when someone tears a page from your notepad. You want to punch them in the face. You heartless moron! 
11. You detest people who borrow your pens and never return them. 
12. In the era of emails, you still like writing personalised notes. 
13. You love post-its. And stickers, colored pencils, sketch pens and just about everything that is considered 'stationery.' 
14. You have a special pouch that keeps your favorite pens safe. Actually few pouches. 
15. When you travel abroad, you get mesmerized by massive stationery stores. You end up spending the whole day buying different things. 
16. You are always up for buying a new diary or a pencil case. 
17. And tiny, miniature-sized notebooks make you weak in the knees. 

Here are some of instagram accounts that I find interesting. Stickerrific offers tons of washi tape and stickers that can make you drool. If i were in their physical store mau berjam2 duduk dalam tuh. I just ordered some washi tapes...can't wait for the package to arrive!

I fell in love with Paperdorable pink organizer. It's kinda pricey though. Luckily i worked in an industry where some peeps can gimme few nice organizers and calendars. If takde...i mighttttt splurge on this one.

Ok so from all those stationeries that i collected, i should be able to turn it into something like this IG account owner did. So pretty, siap dgn hand lettering summore! One of the reasons jugak why i collected tickets, tags, receipts, placemat or anything laaa yg related to the place i went to so i can buat camnie. Unfortunately this hobby blom fully executed because it needs time to buat dgn penoh kasih sayang & concentration *cough*. Like my japan's trip scrapbook siap halfway je...and i already forgot all the small details. And that explains why i became a hoarder of these stuff instead.

7th Anniversary Celebration

On our special date 10 Jan, we went to Cheras to cod barang Jeeb and then singgah umah my sis. Took some of pinggan mangkok arwah mom so i can use it in our own house. The pyrex version yang mom beli dolu2 tuh mmg vintage and all sizes ado. Cuma nak pakai ngan tanak pakai jer because berat2 belaka. Even my sis pon tak pakai hahaha. Excited betoi feeling mak jemah....rasa cam nak amik sumer but masak pon x brapa nak rajin besides i have a very limited space so i can only choose mana yang rasa akan pakai. Qeeb plak dapat spent time kejap with the cousins except Adly because dia tgh explore LRT route nak gi tempat kejer part time dia nanti. Then we went back to SA and had quiet lunch at Macaroni & Coffee. We chose situ because we want to avoid place yang too packed since we brought baby Zafeer too.

We ordered food lebey sket like quesadilla and pizza because feeling festive gituh.

Qeeb wanted pizza. So instead of ordered kids size, we ordered normal size. Sbb kitowang pon nak jugak hehe.

One of the recommended dish in the menu. Can't remember what it was. Chicken cheese something i think.

Can't resist to order Macaroni Cheese Pesto with salmon again. Still maintain rasa sedap.

Ended the scrumptious lunch with a hot coffee.. 

My lovely bois Qeeb and Zafeer. The lil one gave me some time to enjoy my meal before he asked for milk. Irony nyer...photos of me and Jeeb takde. Asik gambar food and kiddos, gambar sendiri tak amik hahaha. 

  

Alhamdulillah the day was well spent with loved ones. Syukur for the seven years of love and marriage. 

Qeeb's Orientation Day at Preschool

It's been a while tak update this blog since new year! Qeeb dah settled down in his new preschool. This is the 3rd preschool since he was 4yo. One of the main reason we changed to this school this year was because we wanted him to familiar with real school environment. Hope with this exposure takde laa dia culture shock sangat nanti with big crowd, assembly, school's rule + discipline when dia masuk primary school. Other factors were affordable fees and location pon still dekat.

His neat and organized classroom. Looks interesting and banyak material yang dorang guna. Other corners in the class pon best jugak. Depan class ada playground. So jakun sket laa because before nih sumer dalam shop lot. 

Sumer kasut suci murni lagik on first day of school.

Slamat blajar pakai stoken properly ye Qeeb. Kat rumah mama/ kak sue musti cannot resist to help. Kat Smart Reader dolu dah penah blajar but a year after that at different preschool dah biasa x pakai socks. Here, kene start wearing socks again and blajar buat sendiri.

Coloring activity to keep the students occupied while the parents tgh queue bayar fees.

Qeeb with his new school friends. Moga2 sumer can get along well. I think memories with kindie friends remain sampai ke besar jugak kan? 

I was so proud of him. He pulled through the first day steadily. Few days later he said he likes the school. Alhamdulillah. So I hope he can maintain the momentum and enthusiasm until end of the year.

Happy New Year 2016

Farewell to sweet and sour memories in 2015. May 2016 will be better for all of us. Insya Allah.
