The Menus

Assalammualaikum w.b.t.


My mum was all over excited for the kenduri. She kept changing the menus. I've also been dreaming on serving several desserts to his family. If only I got the time to make it. My Saturday is my working day, full okeh!

Blueberry cheese tart

Progress: Still thinking whether to change it with fruit cake or apple pie

Agar-agar Santan

Progress: Agar-agar, santan and egg. Checked.

Pineapple Tart

Progress: Already booked with Tok Ngah for 6 boxes. Checked.

Creampuff

(nothing like this)

Progress: Custard cream is ready. Checked.

Puding berkuah.

Progress : Ingredients ready (evaporated milk, custard and corn flour). Checked.

Hmm...merancang aje la. Barang-barang semua dah ada. Just to make sure I have the time to do all this. Bos aku ni kureng acam betoi, Krismas krismas suh orang keje. Ingat bole la shopping barang sikit-sikit. Ceh.

another month to go

Assalammualaikum w.b.t.


'Officially booked version'

One month and I'm away from my single status. Let's hope so. I'm not preparing too much since it's still a month to come, but still, preparations need to done such as booking for cake, looking for the menus, decorations for the dulang and such.

I haven't buy anything yet. I'm waiting for the next month to buy kain pelekat, sajjadah  and bath towel. Bath towel? Haha it's my mums idea. Lepas tu aku tengok harga tuala mandi saja cecah dekat seratus hegget! Said that normally people 'during her era' gave things like that. I insist on buying camera or iPhone, but then my friends told me that if I gave such thing during engagement, then what would I gave during my wedding day?

The Dulang consists of those things and pineapple tart. I love pineapple tart and I want Wan to share the delight of my favourite too. Mum asked to give 2 boxes, then I asked Wan for his favourite Hari Raya biscuits (he said he eat any biscuits!). Specifially he like Almond London. So, there you go. Pineapple Tart and Almond London for the first dulang.

Some things that I urged to make my own is the dulang.

Strawberry and apple's in chocolate. I hope we have enough time to look for strawberry in Muar. Giant don't have this, maybe I should go as far as Batu Pahat or Melaka if possible. I haven't look at Fresco yet, hopefully there is. Wan gonna hate this (he doesn't like the idea of me getting hard finding things that aren't easy to get).

Traditionally mum wants me to have a bakul rotan where the fresh fruit would be there (apple, orange, mango, bananas) but I rather go for something modern. The fruit might be dried out, and too traditional la, orang lama. So, the main plan is to get strawberry and apple, but exceptional would be grape and cake ball.

Cupcakes in purple. When we discuss about the theme color before, I go for grey, a satin silk grey which I mention earlier, while Wan asked why not purple? So yes, purple it is. I think it looks great with cupcakes. I'll make buttercream on top. I love buttercream more than royal icing. Or maybe I'll buy instant fondant dough to make the purple flower to put on top.

Kek lapis asam manis. Best in the world! (sepatah kata Razif Hashim). For this, I want to call my auntie (she's got her own kek lapis trademark at Kluang). But mum got the idea to bake the cake. I don't know bout this since making this traditional layer cake takes about 4 hours. I don't have the time. If I bake it this week, it will end in my stomach for sure. Booking will costs around RM65.

Homemade chocolate. Mum doesn't give her comment while I mention this, luckily. I just learn how to make homemade chocolate from my cousin's wedding. She put some strawberry essence, nuts and raisins in their chocolate. I was thinking of 2 different versions of homemade chocolate. One just like the picture, another one would be Oreo cookies covered in chocolate. Right now it's the container that I'm looking for.

Homemade chocolate truffles. Either this one or the chocolate up there. I've been collecting many videos on how to make chocolate truffle which is quite easy. Then it is quite pricey but still looks and taste good. If I manage to make this, I would surely put only 6 to 10 pieces only on a box.

For the hantaran which consist 10% from the exact 'price', Wan wants me to decorate coins to become a flower! Well, he said he almost got RM60 in his tabung beruang madu, there's more to collect if he indeed want this, he really need to give me the coins earlier so that I would have enough time to make the coins flower.

Once I told Mummy Jazlin that we're not doing according to plan, instead we replaced it with an engagement kenduri (haven't told her this), my mum kinda...stay silently. I don't know, maybe she's quite upset with me since I broke her down. I didn't mean to. Everything happen out of my expectation. Hopefully she'll recover soon.

It's Pouring

Assalammualaikum w.b.t.

How many people loves rain? I do. It's pouring now in Muar, few days been like this and I just love it. I love rain. It's kinda bring back good memories. Something that i missed a lot always happen when it's rain.

I used to heard that people who can smell rain, means they gonna die soon. I don't believe that. Because I just like the smell of rain. It's fresh, tangy and sweet. Or something like that.

It's Sunday morning, people went lazy in their beds. I woke up early. Wan been waking me up since three in the moring, then again at six. Asking me to take a bath but I rather curled into a ball under my comforter and sleep. Life's beautiful.



Allah berfirman “Ingatlah ketika ia membuat kamu mengantuk untuk memberi ketentreraman dari pihak Nya kepada kamu. Dan menurunkan hujan kepadamu dari langit guna memberihkan dirimu dengan itu, dan menghilangkan noda setan, memperteguh hatimu dan menapakkan kakimu kuat-kuat.” (QS Al Anfal [8]:11).

Is it just OK?

Assalammualaikum w.b.t.


Alahai tengok anak-anak dara zaman sekarang. Membebel? YES, I AM MEMBEBEL about my sister yang rasa diri dah besar sampai nak besar kepala phhhft**

It's annoying la to tell you the truth kalau baca status kat Facebook ada yang mengadu
' Hello, akak i balik rumah mesti bersepah rumah tu dibuatnya'
'Hello, kau masak pun tak sedap ada hati nak kawen tahun depan?'
or whatsoever...

Mostly this comes out from adik-adik yang tak tahu bersyukur because they have big sisters. Ok, bersyukurlah pada sesiapa yang ada adik-beradik penyayang tu ya. You can stop read this and turn on to Youtube whatsohaveyou

Back to my point, geli gerleman* aku tengok budak-budak bawah umur (if 17 STILL considered as underage cause they don't act like one) berkasih-sayang siap berjanji nak bertanggungjawab bagai. Walhal orang tua-tua yang dah berumur 56 tahun pun belum tentu boleh tunaikan janji inikan pulak budak muda baru nak kenal dunia?

Oh gosh you guys are a bunch of pathetic crowd. Please la jangan percaya cakap boyfriend kau yang mengatakan after what he did to you, he still be responsible of the after effect. Kalau kau boleh dapat madu sahaja, kenapa nak simpan hampasnya? Siapa nak menyusahkan diri sendiri, beb? Situasi kewangan sendiri pun tak stabil dah pandai nak bertanggungjawab. Eiiii...gedik gedik.

And again, stop 'papa-mama-ing' in front of me. Whatever it is, it makes me want to throw out, ok.

Again, cukupkan solat 5 waktu. Keep your mouth shut up or i'll let my feet do the work. Got it?

Simple Hi-Tea

There's a time that I really really hate of what I feel inside me. Because sometimes, feeling is something subjective. It's hard to portray it, if I could say that. People having hard time to express their feeling. So do I.

There's a time. We hate on what we love so much. That the feeling. Is hurt. So damn much :'(

Another Shawl Tutorial

Assalammualaikum w.b.t.


Setelah melihat banyak hits menuju ke tips pakai selendang. Mari sini saya tunjukkan 2 tutorial pakai selendang. Satu jenis satin dan satu lagi jenis pashmina. So, next time I'll upload more style ok. This is the usual Hana Tajima style, so I just show to you how I'm using it. It's simple and just to make sure, cover your chest. By the way, I was thinking of giving a tutorial on how to make turban style. It's in, isn't it?

Letakkan selendang 3 tone (supaya lebih menyerlah gitu). Bahagi sama untuk kedua-dua hujung.

Ambil sedikit bahagian depan kedua-dua belah, bawa ke belakang (bahagian sanggul) dan pinkan.

Dan membentuk telinga beruang kat situ.

Kemaskan supaya nampak ombak-ombak ala Hana style.

Ambil bahagian kanan selendang dan kemaskan di bahagian kiri bahu. Kemaskan supaya menutupi bahagian dada anda sepenuhnya.

Bahagian kiri pula pusingkan ke belakang, dan kemudian pinkan juga di bahu kiri. Kemaskan pula bahagian belakang. Dah siap!

Ok, the second style would best if you use pashmina. This one is simple and again, cover your chest.

Bahagikan kedua-dua hujung sama rata.

Untuk bahagian kanan selendang, ambil bahagian dalam selendang.

Pinkan dekat bahu kiri.

Bahagian kiri selendang yang masih berjuraian tu, ambil bahagian dalam.

Lilitkan ke bahagian atas kepala dan pin. Kemaskan supaya nampak alunan yang natural.

Taraaa! Dah siap.

 Apa yang penting, stail macam ni tak perlukan sanggul ciplak yang besar dan nampak pelik tu. Dan juga ianya menutupi dadamu. Tidak perlu ya memakai tudung lalu terbonjol sana sini. Selamat mencuba!

Wedding to remember

Assalammualaikum w.b.t.

Kamariatun Nahariah and Hazli Dzazali

Nur Hidayah, Za Salehan, Azura Jasmi dan Fara Haneem

This is from my cousin's wed. It's nice to have a Javanese wedding concept and to have a sponsored kebaya for all of us. Congratulations to both, Kamariatun Nahariah Kamal and Hazli Dzazali. You guys look totally adorable. A dashing groom and a darling bride.

Selepas nikah, ada satu majlis lagi iaitu penyerahan tanggungjawab anak gadis kepada suami anaknya yang sah. Masa Pak Ngah (ayah pengantin perempuan) melafazkan ayat-ayat tu, tak terasa apa sangat. Tapi sekali Mak Ngah (mak pengantin perempuan) menyerahkan anak gadisnya, mak haih, sentap terus aku, Farah dengan Dayah. Masing-masing punya la payah cover sebab mata dah berair...tunggu gugur jek. Dah la jaga Candy Buffet dengan Guest Book...waa!!!

Majlis Malam Berinai. Majlis kecil-kecilan sahaja tapi it's my first time ever. Sebelum ni ingatkan malam berinai tu time tu la orang pakai inai. Rupanya lebih kurang macam tepung tawar jek.

Malam berinai tu jugak ada majlis lain seperti Marhaban dan Berzanji. Meriah walaupun hujan agak lebat tapi semuanya berjalan lancar, Alhamdulillah.

The Kebaya outfit (Majlis Persandingan)



Sementara pengantin bersanding di atas pelamin, kami dayang-dayang telah diamahkan tugas-tugas khas di Candy Buffet, Guest Book, bunga pahar dan memberi cenderahati kepada tetamu. Kemudian pengantin pun diarak ke meja makan berdamai. Lepas tu dayang-dayang pun...



Haa...seronok ok. Sebelah abah, ini kira yang agak last la dari kalangan sepupu rapat dari kalangan adik-beradik abah. Kira penutup tahun jugak la. Tunggu tahun depan la ye nampaknya.. Apa-apapun, tahniah untuk kedua-dua mempelai.
