Hmmmmm

Hiiiiii guysssss.

I have 2 announcements here.

1) I dah berjaya swim across the pool!!!!

Wahhh excited ok. Siap dapat 3 laps lagi hehehe. Crossing the pool is crucial gila okkk. Because I was very terrified with the depth at the centre of the pool. Normally I will swim kat tepi2 je which is around 1.2m, so still I am 'taller' than the water. So whenever I failed to grasp new breath, I just berdiri je la kan.

The centre of the pool is about 1.8m, definitely 'taller' than me! So what if tiba2 I penat to swim time tengah2. Tak pasal2 okkk kena diselamatkan oleh lifeguard.

On the first attempt I had to STOP at tengah2 which caused me takut-nak-mati. I was so stressed to pass the pool that I pushing my limits and losing the balance and breath. Luckily I swim next to plastic rope yg kat tengah2 kolam tu so I grabbed it and bersangkut kat situ until I fully regained my strength. And another important matter, I swam with a pro - cool. She followed me from behind to monitor me in case I'm drowned half way ke apa ke kan. In fact, time nak swim balik, I siap tolak her body okkkkk, sbb takde tempat nak pegang ahahaha. Gila keji. Btw, thanks babe! I can cross it! You must be so proud of me hihihi

After that she encouraged me to do another 2 laps. OMG penat okkk. But I berjaya crossing it without stopping!! Yeayy!!

So guys, aren't you happy with me :D


2) Hmmm I ada another thing nak bitau. But will include some simple drawing. And I still takde masa nak buat. So..maybe I will update you guys later about this one? Hmmm..maybe tomorrow? Hehehe :D


Till nowwwww


Mwahhhhhhhhhhhhhhssss!!!!!

Vain

Hyeeee guyyysss!!

You know whatttt?! Pagi tadi kannn... hmm mcm mana nak citer? jap..

..

Ok mcm ni. MrComot is out of town, ada kursus apa la for 2 days. Today is the last day. Since I'm not going to meet him (and I've been missing him so bad), tiba2 rasa gedik want to take my own pics, to show him what I'm wearing to the office today.

So I get in the car, dab some lip gloss, pose here and there, cam-whoring. Lama jugak la..of course la.. after that I view balik the cam, tgk ok ke tak, comel ke tak kannnn. So vainnnnnnn.

Then baru I move my car. And you knoww whhhhaattttt? Tiba2 I noticed ada sorg mamat ni standing about 2 mtrs frm my car and looking towards me. So I was thinking la, apsal la mamat ni, nak tanya something ke.

Time I reverse tu baru I perasan ada VAN tengah tunggu nak takeover my parkingggg okkkkkkkk. And that guy yg standing tu maybe nak dtg ketuk tingkap I suh cepat2 or he simply standing there hehehe.

Ughhhhh


I paling tak suka la kalau org nak park, I lambat2 kuar. But tak sengaja okkkkkk. Hmppphhhhh

The Femes Andes =D

I am no a great cook, in fact I can't really cook. But I can make scrumptious-to-die-for cookies!!! Ahahaha.. ada unsur2 PERASAN di situ. But it is true! My colleague, friends of a friend, strangers said I bought the cookies from Famous Amos!

And MrComot called it Femes Andes =D

Since it is so easy to make and I am so excited with it, I loveeeeee to share with you guys the recipe!


Original recipe taken from here. Thanks Kak Rossya!!

I changed bit here and there, so this is my altered version.




Femes Andes =P

8ozs butter
5ozs gula halus ---> I kurangkan jadi 100g only
1/2 sudu teh bicarbonate of soda
1 sudu teh cream of tartar
sedikit garam --> I omitted this as I use salted butter
1 cawan serbuk Milo
10 ozs tepung self-raising --> I kurangkan jadi 200g only
6ozs Hershey's semi-sweet mini chocolate -chips --> I used normal choc chips
1 sudu teh vanilla essence
1 biji kuning telur

I add another 20g of dessicated coconut (as I like the hinted of chewy and crunchy taste of coconut)

Leave the butter at room temperature. Combine it with sugar, vanilla, cream of tartar and soda bicarbonate. Then whip it with Milo, egg yolk (sometimes kalau I malas kan, I just dump the whole :P. The outcome still the some), and choc chips. Then masukkan self raising flour.

Preheat oven at 150-180 celcius. Then bake at 150 celcius for 20 mins. Btw, this depends on the oven jugak tau. Ada yg need higher temp and shorter time.

Before

After!

Seriously I tak tipu. Sedappp and rasa macam Famous Amos. I mean, like serious shit okk. Kalau tak percaya can ask my friends and MrComot. Ahahaha... I don't need to convince you guys that hard, if you have the time, just try it out =D

The bottom. See the texture? You can feel the crunchiness okk :D

Btw I would like to share with you guys my experience dealing with choc chips. I tried Hersheys before and it tastes good, like always.

The thing is, I always have this perception - good brand, good taste and quality.

But it wont apply this time for this choc chips! Oddly I found this local-cheap-choc-chips taste as good as the branded one! In fact, I favoured this one a bit as it is creamier and melted nicely in my cookies and muffin. I definitely will buy this local-made again.

Local choc chips from Bake With Yen, Chow Kit. RM5 only for 500g.

Branded one. RM7.95 for 250g.

My advice is, try few types of choc chips and you will find the one that suite you! Then you can name it Femes (your name) . Ahahahaha sama2 lah kita perasan kan.


Ps: If you want to 'rasa' this so called Femes Andes, jemput lah raya tahun ni :P


Happy baking babes!

The weird thing in my eyes

Hye guyssss!!!!

Sorry for the loooonnnggg hiatus. Ahhh mcm la tak biasa kan :P One of the friends sooo worried where I have been, siap sms lagi tanya I am ok ke tak. Thanks darl! I am okkk. Just being me, tiba2 MIA ahaha. Well, this entry for u since I promised about it already.

Btw, I was back in hometown for the last few days and I have lotttttss stories to share, but since my blogging mood is no there yet, maybe I should whip it up with something simple. Sorry yer Khairiah, nnt kita tulis makan2 :P

Below is pisang tanduk. I snapped it back then when I was in Rena's house. The size surprised me. Have you ever seen this enormous bulk? It is so big that the skin cracking. Hmm.. I wonder what we can do with this kind of banana. Do we eat it fried? Or sweetened it for dessert?

Rena, your mom buat apa with pisang ni?

The gigantic ba-na-na

Kenari taxi

And this is my 1st time ever to see a 'Kenari' taxi. Normal will be proton saga, wira, waja, perdana, etc. But Kenari? Practical if you have big luggages.

Have you ever been in one?

The fatty, fatty crabs

This actually going to be a mix entry. The tasty crab and the price that I'm going to complaint :P

I was craving for crabs (Fatty Crab to be exact) since last 3 weeks and finally get to hold my hands on those sea creature last weekend. The crabs was scrumptious as usual.

One of the must-order-dish is the chicken wings! It is well marinated with special spices and deep fried till golden.


Here come the chilli crabs! I had them with 2 slices of toasted bread, wiping out the gravy. Nyum nyum!!

Fat, fat, fat crabs. The flesh is so juicy and sweet!

The 'hammer'. You have to eat them messily, then it is a real way to enjoy the crabs :D

Final product :P

While eating, I saw their pricelist at the whiteboard, and went white. It is freaking RM56 per kilo okkkkkkkkkk!!

OMG. That is a huge rise!


Last time I ate, it was only RM40 (or RM44) per kilo okkk.


I know our situation right now, with the petrol issue, recession, etc etc, but the price is just beyond ridiculous okk!!

Our normal bil is around RM50, but that night, it went up to RM80++.


While walking back to the car, I said to MrComot

"Dah tak mengidam fatty crab pas ni. I will cook my own crabs"



Hahaha..like, yeah right. But well, I'll take it as a challenge ;)
