Do You Know What We Did Last Weekend.. !?

We - as in the SINfully Stooges- were verrryyyy busy last weekend.

3rd project and this time, the number of hampers were more than the projects before.

Meeting point for the 3rd project - my house. Sha and Ina came around noon, and this time, I told them that I was gonna cook for lunch. No more pizzas or KFC... we went local this time... hehehe. Ina brought fruits while Sha brought nasi ayam to add to the menu.

Nasi Ayam Sha, all in plastic container

... to go with my Mee Rebus

While they were warming up for the session, I was busy cooking ... (cooking is my middle name!). I cooked Mee Rebus SK Style and I already baked a cake using my newly arrived bundt pan the night before....

This recipe will be posted in my next entry...
malas nak type lah tonite

Since time was an issue, I told Sha to bring disposable plates and cutleries. Why? So that all would go straight into the dustbin ..... zzaassss... no washing activity because time was short and we had so many things to do....




Stooges @ work... y so serious???

Gold coins for the basket

Anyway, look at the amount of tins and baskets that we were working with. The nuts, the dried fruits, the kuih bangkit..... all for CNY hampers ordered by one customer.




The final product, ready to be delivered
.... and that means.... 'ka-ching' is coming! weeee........!!!

Nicely packed

Since I'm not yet sleepy tonight (I am actually typing while watching SWITCH), let me share with you the Mee Rebus recipe .... (courtesy from Cik Awar) hehehe (with slight amendment to the original recipe) :

For the gravy:
Beef (thinly sliced) - rebus for 15-20 mins till the meat is tender. I need the broth for the gravy. I used about 300-400gm beef

Fry garlic and onion (blend or crush) with oil for 2-3 mins. Add chili paste, if you like the gravy to be a bit spicy.
Add in 2-3 tsp anchovies and 1-2 tbsp dried prawn (both soaked in water for 1 hr and blend till fine).
Fry the mixture for a few more minutes. Add in beef and the broth. Slow cook for 10 mins. Let the mixture boil and add in 4-5 tbsp tomato sauce. Stir and add salt & pepper to taste.

Finally, add in blended sweet potato (I used about 3-4 small potato - throw them into the boiling water for about 20 mins, take out and mash the potato). Stir and allow the gravy to boil slowly.

Voila..... the gravy is now ready to be served with yellow mee.

To Be or Not To Be

Deadlines were over…. Yesterday was my last day here…. And today marks a whole new beginning of my career life here….. I could be wrong or I could be right for making this decision… but I’ve made up my mind to take up the challenges, nonetheless. I know I’m subjecting myself to a lot of hardwork as well as criticism, scrutiny and observation from the rest……. and time definitely has to be compromised. But being a risk taker…. I am, I know I just have to pull myself together and face the obstacles - one at a time. It’s too late to undo things anyway and the best thing to do is to be positive. Both legs are in and it’s time to march towards the horizon with pride and dignity. Only time can answer the doubts that I have in me now… meanwhile, I need all the luck that I can have.

It was Nik's Birthday

It was my husband’s birthday yesterday and we took the day off to ‘merewang’ while feeling young, kononnya. The theme of the celebration? Reminiscing the days when we were courting back in 1993 minus the snow.... ancient sungguh rasanya! We had our breakfast at O’Brien’s early in the morning and took a slow stroll along the shops in OU and enjoyed every minute of it (at 10am in the morning, mind you, and the shops were barely opened). Later we watched ‘Lake House’ and we were charged RM12 only for 2 tickets (the early bird tickets were so damn cheap, I almost fainted!). There were only a few couples inside and we took the opportunity to sit right at the middle (ikut suka hati), since the theater was quite empty. How was the movie? Hmm… ok la, I would say it was the right movie for the occasion… hehe. A bit slow though, biasa la, romantic piece. The ending part was quite ‘touchy’ and yes, Mr Reeves was so stunningly handsome (oh yes, nampak tua sikit la and still got the looks).

Antara Anyir & Jakarta

I’ve been making regular monthly trips to KLIA since my husband was posted to Jakarta last year. And yesterday….. again, I made my ‘latest trip’ there to send him off (after the recent trip that I had on 3/3/06 when I picked him up from KLIA to spend his 10 solid-days holiday with me and the kids here in KL). Time sure flew fast when you wished for the earth to stop and let you enjoy your 10 days just a little bit longer. Nevertheless, the ‘most awaited 10-days’ was over…..Nik is now back in Jakarta and I’m now back in my office, sitting in my chair, swiveling around every 10 minutes, gazing lazily at the workload dumped on my desk and trying very hard to find every energy stored in my body just to touch those piles of paper…. argh! But the 10-days period was spent joyfully. We took the weekend off last week for a quickie getaway at Cyberview Lodge Resort & Spa…. and oh boy! the resort is spectacular and the view is breathtakingly-beautiful. Of course, the children were the happies
