A Waitress Does That!

I failed my first plan. ahaha! My previous post says today should be my last day working as a waitress/ kitchen hand. But, I didn't even get to tell the makcik that I want to quit. so, I'll be working tomorrow. Anyway, now that she makes me work only from 11am - 3pm, I guess it isn't so bad. but hey, I have only two weekends left. I should really tell her that I'm quitting. Now, who says it's easy to be the one's leaving? ;p *neighbor's amp is too loud, should I bang the wall?* hhehe.. sorry for the intermission. Dear readers, How many of you have ever worked in a restaurant? or maybe currently working in one? When I first told my friends that I'll be working as a kitchen hand, they were like "what are you gonna wear?" "you don't seem befitting for the job?" funny aye... I however understand their remarks. I have to say that my wardrobes is rather fancy. Not that stylish though. But I love skirts, la...

Puteh sebu mek ni. XD

People say a picture is worth a thousand words. Thus this post is worth a bible. ;) According to brother, the purpose of this jalan-jalan is to makan. *burrp*heee.., It has flourished pretty well... what? poverty? Penang pun ada org miskin, cuma tak gebang kat tivi. I sense a strong influence of post-modernist spirit in many of its buildings. Fuhhhh! It's hard to believe that that was my second visit to Kelantan after 14 years. My nephew was still an embryo then... yet, he visited Kelantan many times than I did. I should cuti-cuti Malaysia more. ;)

Ketupat!

 Happy Eid!  Commonly, Malaysian Eid celebration wouldn't be complete without ketupat.. so this time around, I'm gonna show you how to wrap a Ketupat Palas (sticky rice dumpling)...  Frankly speaking I'm not a good cook (I should say, not yet), but wrapping ketupat palas is something I can proudly teach anyone. hahaha...  Though it might seem kinda easy, if you fold the leaf to the wrong direction, your ketupat might end up as 'ketupat betina' (female? ketupat)... oh well, how do I explain this, its rather perverse to put a photo or explain... well, doesn't matter... here's the steps of how to wrap a sticky rice ketupat. 1. Fold the wide edge of the leave into a cone shape container 2. Fill it with the half-cooked sticky rice (the rice was cooked with cocunut milk, a few pandan leaves and salt) 3. Fold the tail of the leaf to the left, covering the rice 4. ok, this is a tricky part... and my nephew didn't take the photo properly... hai...

Kualiti vs Kroni

Kehadapan sesiapa saja yg mengerti. Saya dengan ini cuba menulis warkah ini sesopan yang mungkin Di sebuah hutan tropika, ada suatu komuniti penguin dari antartika… ya, mereka penguin… jd mereka masih hidup dan makan spt penguin sekalipun mereka berhijrah ke hutan tropika. Komuniti mereka smakin lama smakin ramai, maka ada tersedianya sebuah lubuk murah untuk penguin-penguin yang tidak mahu tinggal di atas pokok. Di lubuk tersebut, penguin-penguin hidup dgn aman… tetapi mereka tak dpt memburu kerana lubuk itu kontang dan tiada ikan. Jadi mereka terpaksa la upah penguin luar yg dikenali sbg Prati (prasan reti) utk sediakan mknn… ceritanya, kump penyedia mknn ini dipilih oleh komuti yg tidak tinggal di lubuk itu… tak mengapalah… apabila Prati bermula, dimulai dgn tempoh cubaan … Sepanjang tempoh cubaan tersebut, pelbagai rungutan timbul… ada yang kata, ikan tidak segar… sotong dan udangnya plastik, penguin suka makan mentah, tetapi pernah pula dijamu udang masak kari …lalu m...

No Added Sugar

I would usually write the post title at the end of the writing process, right before publishing the post, that's why my post title most of the times are irrelevant to the post. I have nothing in particular to write about, however I feel an urge to write something, something lackadaisically sweet... just like my daily orange juice here, with 'no added sugar'… haha… That's not going to happen though… well… I'm not a sweet person by nature, so it's almost impossible for me to write something 'sweet' effortlessly. I've been hanging at the edge of my emotion lately, feeling a little bit out of control sometimes, which I really hate. But I suppose, at some phases of life, we would all feel this way regardless of the reason. Sometimes we feel so down, out of place and discouraged, and if we were to look for reasons, we'll surely find one. Human are always full of excuses. But a wise man looks at the bright side. A wise man sees the light at the en...

Pergi Pisang

It’s funny how certain food could bring back long lost memories… Pisang pun boleh imbas kenangan lalu… ish, kalau la boleh masak kat sini kan best… boleh buat cucuq pisang… haa, kenapa org johor makan cucuq pisang dgn cabai kicap? Peliknya… Teringat ni… I was once treated for low potassium levels in my blood. I remember having to wake up at 300 am to swallow little yellow pills… sampai sekarang tak fhm kenapa kena makan ubat pukui 3 pagi? it wasn’t serious though.. but as I was discharged from the hospital, I was advised to eat at least a banana every day which I only followed for about a week I guess… haha.. susahla duk asrama… dewan makan bukan bagi pisang tiap2 hari… malas juga nak beli pisang bawa balik bilik, macam pelik… but since I had to choose between pills and pisang, of course I went for pisang since I hate ubat with all my heart… Tiba-tiba tergerak nak search pasal hypokalemia … I guess, it was just due to my poor diet back then. Tu la, suka buat perangai malas ...

Yummy!

Second post for today… haha.. pulun…. But this time around, I seriously have a thing to share…. Weeee~…. I had just discovered how to enjoy McFlurry in style… yeah, I know… perhaps, it’s nothing to be proud of… but who cares… muahahaa… (kak sarah mesti tension) I don’t know how long I haven’t had McFlurry…and this evening, due to the extreme heat… it appeared to be the most delightful treat…so I had one, shared with my dearest Kak Sarah… but the moment I grabbed the cup, I noticed that it has quite a unique spoon… (I know, it’s been like that since it first appeared in the market, tp nak buat perak juga!) I wonder why the spoon was designed to have a fat hollow squared handle… Was it meant for easy grip? Or was it just purely aesthetic? Anyway… unconsciously(?) I slotted my index finger into the hollow handle… the spoon hence appeared like an extension of my finger… hahaa… and I continued eating the ice cream… Oh! It tasted better! Heee… Org jari besar tak boleh buat… haha… It’s ...

Durian

Assalamualaikum Aku mahu bercerita... semalam aku makan durian! Semalam, rakan serumah bernama Oya .. teringin nak makan durian... lalu beliau pun membeli... memandangkan aku si anak kampung ini tahu mengopek durian... maka dapatlah turut serta makan sama... secara percuma... heee...terima kasih Oya... Ah... alangkah nikmatnya dapat makan durian.. alangkah teringatnya pada kampung halaman... Di Malaysia, lebih spesifik... Penang... Lebih spesifik, Bukit Mertajam.... lebih spesifik... Mengkuang... rumah aku dipagari pohonan buah tempatan... punya manggis, rambutan, langsat (Oya kata, kalau 'duku' ada 'dukung', 'langsat' ada 'langsang' tak?  -_-") , betik, pisang, duku, rampara (pulasan tapi dah nak mati pokok tersebut, tak tahu sama ada masih berbuah atau tidak) , ubi kayu (susah rupanya mencabut ubi kayu, pernah disuruh ayah kerana mahu diberi pada jiran mengandung yang teringin, takkan nak biar makcik tu yang mencabut pula) , sawa, seghawa (...
