Written on Sunday, December 30, 2007 by mummyvaio

Just wanna share a marvellous cake recipe i got from mamafami.Really yummy,should give it a try!The original recipe was yellow cake,but i changed it to rainbow cake because i made 5 layered of them with rainbow color,just to make it merrier for the festive,though i think the icing was badly done.It looked funny.Well here goes the recipe...
just done cake

RAINBOW CAKE

Ingredients :

1 cup butter

2 cups white sugar

4 eggs

2 1/2 cups self-rising flour

1 cup milk

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Method :

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees Celcius).

2. Grease well 5 baking tray.

3. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar.

4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time.

5. Combine the milk and vanilla.

6. Add alternately to the creamed mixture with flour, ending with the flour.

7. Mix only as much as necessary. Split batter into 5, mix with some food color.

8. Pour into the baking tray and bake till golden brown.


what is left of my cake the next day....

i made 5 layer,but the yellow layer i left it at home because the cake looks too tall for my taste.Could not get the sliced picture of the cake,cause it was gone when i want to get it at the serving table..the next day cut the leftover cake into two pieces,and sandwich them together with leftover butter cream n have a cake bliss...

betsu bara

Written on Sunday, December 23, 2007 by mummyvaio

kalau masa kat nihon dulu, selalu bile ada majlis ape2...girls selalu tanoshimi je tgk dessert...walaupon perut dah penuh dengan nasi,ayam,etc...guys always said...korang leh makan lagi ke...n the girls always said...bole...kitorang ader betsu bara...

kepada yang tak faham bahasa jepon let me explain...betsu bara...kalau ditranslate sebiji-sebiji dalam bahasa inggeris jadi another stomach..so...korang bole la agak sket2 maksud dier kan...frasa ni selalu digunakan oleh perempuan...sbb kami suka makan bende yg manis,such as kek,puding,jelly,coklat...eventhough tadi dah makan banyak...still boleh lagi sumbat sket dessert dalam perut..tak tau la lelaki bole ke tak ader betsu bara nih...( tp hubby cakap lelaki tak leh..) tapi most of the girls/women i know...that is including me...can have betsu bara...pernah baca n tgk tv ader orang buat kajian pasal betsu bara nih...

katanya betsu bara bole terjadi apabila kita nampak benda yang sangat tempting untuk dimakan...oleh itu otak kita akan hantar signal...hoshiii...( nak...nak...) ..oleh itu, otak akan suruh sejenis enzim dalam perut kita untuk menolak makanan yang kita makan tadi ke usus bawah...( usus besar ke kecik aaa..lupa daaa..) ..menyebabkan kandungan gula dalam darah kita turun dan wujudnya ruangan sket dalam perut kita untuk diisi lagi...tapi yang amazing nya...diorang tak tau kenapa perkara nih bole terjadi hanya pada perempuan...lelaki yg diorang test sumer tak le jadi camtu...pelikkan...

tokoro de...aidiladha this year agak sepi...did not went beraya because hubby don't feel well...so just stayed at home on eid...untuk majlis korban balai malaysia ari tuh...kitorang tak terlibat pon dalam masak2 gulai korban...just buat sebiji kek kecik...rainbow cake...n buat air oren...tp gulai kambing ari tuh memang sedap...daging lembut n kuah sedap!!...pandai betul diorang nih masak..mummy tukang makan je..hehehe..kak hasni n along kata diorang ader call mummy raya aji..tp tak angkat...pelik plak..sbb memang tak de miss called pon kat handphone mummy...ni mesti gara2 tak der denpa ( line )...selalu kalau hubby hantar sms...dier dah sampai umah baru la sms dier sampai...sori ne minna...n yesterday, handphone mummy officially dah rosak tak le pakai!!!keypad tak le tekan dah...bole on/off je...lawak...kene air liur budak comel tuh...basah tahap tak bole diselamatkan...sesapa nak call mummy...sile call my hubby ok...

p/s: new year is coming...do u have new new year resolution????

tentang breastfeeding...

a few days ago try perah sket susu,nak try bagi sayangku minum dlm cup...tp kuar sket giler!cuak sesangat...alamak...susu dah kering ke..?..terus ganbare blk mkn kurma byk2 n chanto minum susu ari2...tp pastu terfikir...kalau sayangku tgh nyusu one side...the other side mesti meleleh gak kuar...so takkan la tak cukupkan?maybe sebab dah tak pam kot...bg direct breastfeed je maka tak kuar sgt bile perah...tp on the safe side....still ganbare mkn kurma n susu...



tokorode....



pernah tak korang dibagi opinion pelik2 masa breastfeed baby?ni antara yg mummy tak le terima...kalau org ckp camtu mummy rasa...ya Allah...nonsense nyer!



1- kena bagi dua-dua belah...sebab kanan tu makanan...kiri tu air...kalau bg sebelah je baby tak kenyang...mummy jarang sgt bg dua-dua belah...bg sebelah...sampai dier tido,or tak interested...n my baby chubby jer mcm baby yg bg duer belah...ada scientificly nape kene bg sebelah sampai kosong...tp malas nak tulis...



2- baby kene jugak bg air kosong,nanti dier tak suka minum air,or haus,or lidah kotor...bg mummy,takde nye camtu..dah besar nanti mesti dier minum gak air kosong..n kalau haus bg jer la nyusu lg...aper susah...lidah kotor?mulut baby nyusu ni wangi la...bukan cam org dewasa...tak gosok gigi,busuk...



3- susu belah kiri lebih cair dari belah kanan...hummm...mana org dpt idea ni tak tau la...mungkin diorg tak nah pam susu kot...



apapun susu ibu adalah lebih terbaik untuk baby dari mana2 formula milk...wpon betapa mahal...n glamernye brand susu tu...percayala...tu je kesimpulannyer...



selamat menyambut aidiladha..

what if...

Written on Thursday, December 06, 2007 by mummyvaio


last night while putting sayangku off to sleep...me n hubby talked about what if...what IF we were still in our previous job in shah alam...our life would be like this :


wake up every day at 5 am...get ready for work...drop off baby in nursery at seksyen 17...where most of people in our workplace drop their baby too...7.30 am till at least 5.03 pm...deal wit all the meetings...n the big machines...n the operators...n me trying to squeeze in some time to pump mummy milk...the nice thing is we (me n hubby) could have lunch together everyday!...at 5.03pm if nothing occurs...( like entertaining some Japanese bosses at production floor whilst they look for our faults! ..or 5S meeting or other PQC thingy..) i could get off work...unlike hubby who rarely gets off at 5.03...cause he dealed with customers complaints..n central QC stuff...pick up baby from nursery n pick up hubby...or drive home if he has to work until early night..if hubby busy...prepare dinner ...entertain baby n wait for hubby to call...maybe between 8-10 pm...pick hubby from workplace...get home...quick dinner...n off to bed...for tomorrow...then on weekend are the two days to squeeze everything for our family...the lepak2 in our home,the shopping,the picnic,the gathering wit frens n family,balik kampung...either parit buntar or klang...


to imagine such little time for our baby!!!...luckily,we are here now...and we are savouring every moment we have wit our daughter...time do fly fast...n they are young,only once..once hubby finish his study...and we settle down back at HOME...life will be hectic again...i wonder what kind of mum i am gonna be...a carrier mum again?maybe...may be not!hummm...maybe should open nursery or sumthing so i can work near home...

a weekend away from home -1

Written on Monday, December 03, 2007 by mummyvaio

last weekend we went to the notts game...first time away from home..!well..we went there because i'm playing volley...we got up about 4 am,hubby pick up Along n her friend from their homes n sent them to uss..they were going on bus.then back home n pack our stuffs into the car...mean while baby woke up because she heard me woke up...she looked sleepy but she was already tatatete-tatatete...so we changed her nappies n all..n tuck her in her car seat...well,she only sit there for about 2 minutes,n she started to shriek n cried...she wants some mummy milk n wanted to go back to sleep...we waited for everyone at 4.45 am sharp in front of mierza shop.when we arrived nobody was there,so i thought that we were late!after about 5 minutes did we saw people came out from muazzah's house...ouhh...we were not late after all!everyone started to arrived..at about 5 am we departed from fenham...we stopped once at scotch corner service for solat,n continue our journey...baby slept on my lap most of the time...the sun came out...very beautiful...but i could not snap much..n the shots were not so good anyway...we arrived at nottingham university about 8.30 am i think...n it was freezing!!!n packed with people!!!seriously...ramai nye malaysians kat uk!!!

our game started at 12 pm..so we watched badminton first....talk about our game,i played so badly..that i thought maybe it was a mistake i came!all my serves did not go in..arrggghh...anyways,we managed to win 2 games n went for semi-final!!...for semi i did not play at first...our team looked nervous n tense...n the opponent were so good...they even got a coach!unlike us,who only trained once!!!baby was so very cranky n so loud!...she was shouting n crying...n shouting again...i guess she was so tired n could not sleep because all of the noise...n she could not crawl as freely as at home...cian my baby...even when i was playing i could hear her cries...can u imagine how loud she was..?well she is not an easy baby in her own nature after all...so i still can keep calm n tried our best to make her happy.....

ouh...back to the semi....during the game our player was hit by the ball...squarely on her face! one scary moment that was!!!the hit did made her felt dizzy n blue on her eyes...luckily it did not effect her sight...i imagined that if it was me...my glass will get in my eyes...errr...scary thoughts!well, i got in...n not being any much help...huhu...we lost the game...but personally i thought...quite an achievement...since other teams looked so prepared n all..so we snap few pics...n packed our stuffs to retire to the travel lodge...

we arrived at the travel lodge n rest for a while...well not actually rest..because the baby got so excited that she can finally crawl freely...she looked almost like having a set of wheel on her...crawling everywhere...so fast...while babling...tatatete-tatatete...n smiling broadly....haha...!we managed to change her outfit...n her nappies n get ready for dinner...abg zaidi n abg rusni family did not go along for dinner...so we have extra passenger in our car....unlucky for them...the baby cried so much n so loud for most of the journey to the restaurant....tried everything to calm her...but she only want her mummy milk...at last she got what she wants...although she looked quite uncomfortable wit her positioning...but at least she did fell asleep...n stayed asleep in the restaurant in my lap...we ordered chicken briyani n chicken tikka briyani...ate n talked...my stomach was so full...i was thinking how lovely it would be to sleep once we were back in the travel lodge....

yet when we arrived in our room...the baby was once again no longer sleepy or cranky!she wants to play.....huaaaa....tried to make her sleep...but she went angry...n i let her play...n watched her crawl everywhere wit my eyes half closed...told hubby to sleep cause he needs to drive tomorrow...after a while,baby banged her head under the bed table...n cried...she had some mummy milk n was sound asleep...yess...finally i can get some sleep!...more post tomorrow for our journey on sunday....baby wants to sleep in my lap...n i haven't yet have my lunch...am hungry!!!...ouh also will uplod pics in my fotopages later...check it out ya!!!

mata ne!

p/s: people keep telling me how suprised they were when they heard my baby loud voice....hummm...is it a positive comment or negative...hummm...weelll...its the family trait i guess from my hubby's side...well maybe it will become her identity here!the loud baby...haha!
