Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mommies out there…

On that very special day itself, I was quite busy baking Mother’s Day cakes for my ‘little’ customers and these customers are all 10 years old – oh yes, they are Nasreen’s classmates. My daughter kept on reminding me that I needed to get the cakes ready by certain time on that day, and that the cakes needed to be delivered to the little customers’ houses. Her friends had been keeping some money to order the cakes from me for their moms … and I thought that is very sweet.

Since budget was a constraint (they made Nasreen promised that the price would not exceed certain amount and that they would cancel the order immediately if the cakes cost more than that amount….. hehehe). So demanding eh these little customers?

Anyway, since it was a very special day and these little customers I considered as my special customers, I decided that I would make their cakes a little bit different than usual…..















My children went ‘oohh’ and ‘aaahhh’ over the cakes - so much of making the mama kembang kena puji!!

And my children surprised me with this nice wrapped box…

…. which happened to be a box of chocolates!!!! Woohoo!!!

They knew that nothing excites me more than having a box of chocolates in front of me… (but they made me share the chocolates with them…. So pandai eh!)

By evening, I realized that I have gobbled down half of the box….. yummy!!!! And this morning, I have 6 more pieces of them in my handbag…. And those are for my tea time…. I’m a happy mother today…..

Note : Leilanie, I met my KPI requirement this week!!!! Hee hee

Zura,
your Mother's Day cakes are truly a work of art. Who would come up with such brilliant idea (flower buds and all) if it's not YOU!

Bet your little customers were pleasantly surprised.

I'm just wondering..... did your little ones get some (or rather a lot of) help from their daddy to buy such delicate chocolates?
sedappppp......
hee hee.

P/s :
well done for keeping up with your KPI this week. Kudos to you.

I am busy, I'm confused!

I have been very quiet this week.. no updates, no hopping around leaving any trail of my existence, probably due to the following reasons: 1. Nasreen will be having her exam next week, so I’m busy reviewing her syllabus (and also nagging to make sure she prepares herself). Yes, instead of her reviewing her books, the responsibility – by default – is shifted to me…. Hmm, mothers nowadays. We feel the pressure more than our kids (and we panic even more while waiting for the results to come out). Hehehe. I can’t remember my mother even touched my textbooks when I was in Primary 3. No wonder we grow old faster these days…. 2. I’m having mood swings this week. One day, I feel elated, then mellow on the next day, moody on the following day. Work is adding on my desk, scope is being expanded, news is floating around and remarks are beings smacked everywhere (manage to steer clear of some and the rest sometimes just landed right on my very lap). Don’t you hate it when you are so positive that ...

Angels - Mission Possible...!?

Last week was a week full of excitement for me. One, because I was busy with my work, so the week went by faster than usual…. (meaning: less time spent on ‘termenung’ & missing my husband); Two, my hubby dearest was scheduled to arrive on Friday night (3rd March 2006), the more reason for me be thrilled and eager counting the days; Three, me and the rest of March Angels ( Leilanie & T. Ina ) planned to meet up on Friday (3rd March 2006, also) to celebrate our birthdays and Leilanie had this fantastic idea of challenging ourselves to find gifts for the birthday mommies (and the gifts must cost less than 10 bucks each!) – and Leilanie, I must tell you that this challenge really made me sweat all afternoon on Thursday….. hehehe …and Four, me & my husband (and also the children) planned for a weekend getaway to Cyberview Lodge Resort & Spa on 4th & 5th March 2006. There I said it…..nothing much to say about point One & Two…. but point Three and Four…..definitely!!!...
Yes, I’ve been blessed with a lot of wonderful people around me….. yes friends, you! Read on…. Yesterday, around 6.15pm, I was in the middle of reviewing something when I was called for a meeting with one of big bosses here…. And I was thinking in anger, ‘Great! It’s 6.30pm and they want to have a meeting. Don’t they have families to run back home to????” So I got up from my chair and ran down to one of the meeting rooms in Level 5. I peeped through the small glass and the room was dark and empty. They were not even they yet! Heck! But when I pushed open the door, suddenly I heard people screaming and laughing and shouting, “Happy Birthday To You!!!!” and everyone was holding a candle in their hand. Gosh! My colleagues planned a Birthday Party for me. No wonder the department was empty when I left and I didn’t even notice. I was speechless! I was asked to blow the candles that they were holding and those on the cake (oh! The cake was so yummylicious!) I was so touched. Everybody was th...
