The Sweet Smelling Tofu

I just introduced Zahra to tofu around last month and it has become her most favourite ever since. I'm not quite sure why she loves it so much because I serve it plain, just boil the tofu and mash it with fork and she will gobble it happily. Must be the sweet nutty smell that arouse her appetite.

Tofu with papaya before mashed. I had to eat papaya as she wants only plain tofu! Tried to mix it with other fruits before but she doesn't like it.

I bought the organic tofu from Tesco, the small pack can serve 4 meal for her. The portion is quite big but she still can finish it to the last bit. I normally give tofu for dinner or snack time during weekend.

Staring at her food happily. No, I won't let her eat by herself, because I am lazy to clean the mess after that.

I also introduced Zahra Elena to some finger food - to keep her sit still in the stroller and it works! I gave her weetameal for last weekend but it's not a proper baby food, with the excessive sugar and whatnot, so we decided to buy her some on the rack finger food.

Heinz biscotti. Just tried the plain one and she walloped it in jiffy!

Anyway, just browsing today and found that the biscotti is high in sugar! Maybe I just can bake some, instead of the instant one. Hmm we'll see lah tahap kerajinan mommy ;P

What a mommy to you..

This blog has becoming to Zahra's. Most of the entry is about her. I tried to write about something else and sorting my camera for stories, but again she took all the space in the memory card. I hardly take any picture of my and MrComot, or other thing lately.

This is her this morning, on the way to work. Rubbing her head because she was angry that I didn't play with her hehe

And that's what a mommy to you..gamba garu kepala pun excited nak amik ;)

Happy weekend everyone, hope you have a good one!

Pokok Kelapa

Zahra Elena just found out new skill - peel out her ABC mat! It's so funny to watch her quietly gigih mengorek the ABC and I was amazed when she managed to dig out one block for the first time.

This is the second time she did it yesterday.

And it's even funnier when she 'savoring' her success by munching the foam, literally. The saliva is all over it! And she seems to enjoy it very much.

I know this isn't her best picture but I love it to the max, because her hair is like pokok kelapa! Hahaha. So funny. She totally looks like a boy, eh?
Edited: Kata-kata ibu adalah doa so mommy won't say you look like a boy anymore after this ok? In fact, Zahra look so kawai!!! ;) And please ikut cakap mommy ok! Haha..

When you don't cook that much..

Rummaging my fridge last week because we bought a new fridge *ahem* to store my extra EBM and found this -->

A pack of yellow onion turning into spring onion!

I should have plant them so I can get the real spring onion

This just show how long I didn't cook. Or didn't bother to clean my fridge. Now come to think about it I wonder how many months it has been. Hmmm..

Not only that, we also found unopened pack of soft Milo expired in 2009! Such a waste!

This is not our first time having a sprouting onion like that, but throwing away dry food  is unacceptable! I have to check all the cupboards in my kitchen this week.

Yummy Belanga

We went to MidValley Megamall last weekend to join Tatty and the fellowship for little gathering. Reached a bit late because Zahra was napping and hit the road around 3PM under the hot scorching sun. We were roasted because the car air-cond decided to fail on us that day!!! I was contemplating to proceed with the meet because it's freaking hot but since we already in the car, we just made it.

Went to my PIL's house, tried to change the car with them but coincidentally both cars are in used. What a day!

Since it's already late and we still hadn't our lunch, I was pretty cranky. I mean, being hungry and hot sun is not meant to pair right? As usual we'll be contemplating where to eat and will leave to each other to decide and that's when I saw Belanga and I said, "let's Belanga!". I was pretty excited because I remember reading somewhere that they serve delicious food.

But the moment I sit and scan through the menu, I was pretty disappointed because I was thinking Belanga is serving Thai food, or northern food, where actually they are Kelantaneese food! Not that I have anything against it, it is just Aidiladha just over and I had too much Kelantaneese food already at my hometown. So I just settled for a simple order, nasi putih with oxtail soup while MrComot had Nasi Lemak and oh boy! their food is delish!

The nasi lemak with ayam goreng! I find it's tastier than the famous ever Village Park nasi lemak.

The oxtail soup! Yummy but I've tasted better (gerai tepi jalan kat Brickfields!) but still good enough for me.

Es Teller. Shaved ice with avocado, jackfruit, coconut, some jellies and buah kabung. Super yummy! Love this to bits!

Overall it is a satisfying meal and I want to try other menu again next time. Or maybe I can have their nasi lemak again! Soooo sedap! It's hard to find delicious nasi lemak nowadays. Most of them have this standard taste that can be beaten easily by nasi lemak bungkus seringgit dua puluh sen.

Oh ya, since it is a Kelantaneese shop, they have nasi dagang, the famous nasi tumpang, nasi kerabu, lompat tikam, etc.

Zahra already had her lunch at home, so I just give her mineral water. It's easier to go out with her nowadays since she can have normal food already. I gave her mineral water and some plain rice that I'm having, didn't have to rush to nearby nursing room like I'm used to do. Food is a power tool of distraction hehehe.

It's Saturday so have a good weekend everyone!!
