Recipe : Lasagna kegemaran !

Hi Assalamualaikum.

Biar aku bagitau korang satu benda. Aku sangat suka makan lasagna. Kalau kat Bandung bendaalah ni mahal bukan main kepalang. rp 32 000 kaw!! lebih kurang rm12. Mahal an an. Aku makan ayam penyet kat sane baru rp6000 aka rm2.40. Sumpah sepanjang 2 tahun aku dok sane, aku pernah makan sekali je lasagna kat PapaRon. Tu pon rase cam nak menangis je bayar. Hati rase berat, tangan kaku seolah-olah tak mahu kuakan duet dari purse, kaki jangan cakap a, rase ringan je nak lari dari kedai tu supaye tak yah bayar lepas makan. hahaha hebat tak hebat pergolakan jiwa yang berlaku di dalam diri ini semata-mata untuk mendapatkan sesuap lasagna??

Namun tak usah risau. Aku ada penyelesaian untuk semua masalah tersebut. PEACE to the world sista ! (n____n). Walaupon tudung tak matching dengan baju, tapi ape ade hal. Yang penting perut kenyang, poket slamat.

Bahan-bahan tok buat lasagna : minced beef, bombay onion, butter, cheddar cheese block, prego sauce, full cream milk, lasagna sheets, pepper/salt/ flour. Recipe ni bantai sendiri tapi alhamdulillah jadi je. Mari kite ushaaaa zassss !!

Meat sauce : korang buatlah meat sauce ni gune butter, bombay onion, minced beef & prego sauce. tambah pepper & salt banyak2 sket bagi masyuk. Aku men hentam je buat ala-ala spaghetti sauce, tp minced beef tu jangan bagi hancur sangat okeyh. Kalo sapa yang suka pedas tu, boleh tumis cili giling ye.. :)

Cheese sauce : 1 teaspoon of butter, 2 tablespoon of flour, 1 cup of full cream milk. Masuk cheddar cheese tu ikot suke hati. Aku pakai separuh dari block tu. Gune api kecik..kacau sampai die jadi thick. Aku sesuka hati tambah pepper/salt bagi lagi kaww.

Amek casserole, grease dengan butter, letak the first layer of lasagna sheet. Lasagna sheets ni comes in 2 types. 1: yang you have to boil it first, 2: yang you can use straight away tanpa perlu boil. I bought the 2nd one. So sequence die mesti camni. lasagna-meat sauce-cheese sauce. repeat. Buatlah bape-bape layer yang korang nak mengikut nafsu serakah korang.

TAPI INGAT. layer paling atas sekali mesti cheese sauce eh. kalo korang tamak haloba habib jewels, korang boleh grate cheddar cheese tu on top. Alah bajet cam extra cheese la kan. Lepas dah puas ati, cover your casserole with an alumminium foil.

Kalo memasak sambil sms inilah jadinye. Lupe nak letak alumminium foil :'). Oh ya, bake dalam oven at 180degree for 20-30mins. Ingat! jangan sms semasa memasak!

There you go! Rupe macam sape di hawau tapi rase sedap nak mampos. Jangan lupa makan ngan cili sos sambil tengok tv3 petang-petang ngan keluarge. Bahagia tengok family makan dengan lahap sampai habis licin casserole. Selamat mencube! :)

Date Night In Rome

Well no, it's not realy Date Night In Rome, but "Date Night" and "When in Rome". I'm sure you knew that, but I just try to be a little creative with the titles and fail badly at it. LOL

I know some -like my hubster- are really very anti going to the movies. They would rather watch a pirate copy online or on dvd in the privacy of their home for a ot cheaper. My hubster is tight, seriously! That is why he really dislikes going to the movies, but I know others of you out there believe it's a waste of money when you can watch it for free or for a lot less. I don't judge any of you. I just love going to the movies every now and then - more so in autumn and winter! :) It is an outing for me, something different, an event... Most times I go all alone and don't mind it at all. Some people think that's weird, but not all married women can find the time like myself to up and go to the movies whenever they feel like it. I have that freedom because my hubby doesn't mind and most importany because I have no children.

Ok ok, back to the topic :))

Movies I watched recently were Date Night starring Steve Carell and Tina Fey, and When in Rome starring Kristen Bell and some dude who is sort of cute handsome, but I don't really know who he is.

I really thought I would love When in Rome, but it wasn't as funny as the commercial. There was only one moment towards the end where I almost pissed myself laughing, but that was about it. All in all, I would give it 5/10, and you would probaby be better off keeping that money in your pocket. Trust me! :)

As for Date Night... It exceeded my expectation. While I was expecting a 5/10, after seeing the movie I would rate it 8/10. I initially went to see the movie because of the husband-wife relationship factor. I do believe that things become mundane after years of living with the same person, and I was just curious as to what would happen. I really enjoyed the movie start to end. Time to time I saw my own relationship on the big screen and it made me think further about some matters. I guess it just depends on how you look at things. I don't want to give anything away and spoil it for those who have not seen it, but if your partner is willing, I would recommend you see it together. If you like comedy and even a little bit of action (romance is of course an essentia part of the ingredient!), you will enjoy this movie. :)

Dior & Hijab

I really dislike cold weather. I am a sunny person (I don't know if such a thing exists... but it does now cos I made it up? :)) I prefer sweating to freezing. I would rather sweat and shower 2-3 times a day instead of trying to get warm under layers and layers of clothing plus a blanket. :) Yes, I get really cold! :) Anyhow, while the weather is cooling down here in Oz, world famous brands are already launching their 2010-2011 Autumn/Winter creations. No wonder we are so behind in fashion down under! By the time the products that are currently in fashion around the world becomes fashion here 10-12 months after it is first launched. Oh well... at least we have the internet. :))

Back to the topic... Whist I was browsing through some of the items that are fashioned for the autumn/winter of 2010-2011, a few Dior combinations were immediately saved on my laptop! I didn't even think twice before saving them, because they are chic, and most importantly they are very easy to hijabify. You don't always come across fashion that can be hijabified very easily without coming across as a "try hard" or "suffocated under layers and layers of clothes".

So, when the weather starts to cool down, I may not like it as much because I become a real biatch with crazy mood swings due to deprivation of sunshine (yes I know, you may not care, but I told you anyway and you are free to do whatever you wish with this piece of top secret info) :), I have to admit that we hijabis find our best buys during these cold and gloomy seasons. Long skirts, long sleeves, coverage... Some features common to most of the clothing items that are available during the cold months.

Anyways, I would like to share the Dior photos I saved on my laptop. I absolutely love the flowing dresses with the jackets/coat on top. These outfits may not be suitable to wear on a day-to-day basis, but they are definitely inspirational to jazz up our own style don't you think? I also love that we will be seeing more of the pastel and nude tones in the next autumn/winter season too (since this fashion will be coming to Oz around mid-late 2011). Woohoo! :))

Even though I love all three, my favourite is the outfit in the first photo. What about you? Would you wear anything similar to these outfits?

Ok, I will leave you to it... in love and peace... :)

 

Yeppers, this is my fave! Colour, cut, and all!

I do like this, but the fur trimming is a bit too much for moi...

I am not too much of a fan of wearing long coats over long dresses as such, but I think this is done very well. I also can't get over how hot those boots look peeping out under the dress. I am also not a fan of short dress length + long boots to cover the legs that would otherwise show (I would rather just wear something that is full-length), but this does not seem that way to me. The boots don't seem to emphasize the legs, leg shape, etc. That is what makes it seem so hot to me. I dunno about you, but the more I look at this, the more I likes it. :)

Aku buat perisa strawberry! Tapi sebab nak kasi special, so aku letaklah buah honeydew on top of it & chocolate-freeze topping. Apekah itu chocolate-freeze topping? Alah macam korang makan eskem mekdi yang chocotop tu. Chocolate die keras an? Ha same lah. Bole beli kat Tesco, brand Hershey's :)

Itu dia... dadih special Fatin Liyana~ memang mouth watering ! Combination of strawberry dadih with honeydew + chocolate topping ! Try try jangan tak try ^___^

Recipe : Aku buat Chocolate Muffin lah wey.

Hi assalamualaikum.

Kalau aku kat bandung, biasa aku akan bangun pukul 4.30 pg, paling-paling lewat pon pukul 6 pg mungkin sebab aku tido awal kot. Lagi satu, aku tak suka perasaan bangun lambat tu, nanti rasa macam sedih dan rasa malas nak buat pape. TAPI. aku kat mesia ni bukan main melampau lagi bai, pukul 11 baru la nak bangun. Seb bek la ayah aku bekas tentera, subuh dia mesti gerakkan dengan menggunakan fizikal forces. Siyes tak best kono dobik ngan abah den :').

Seperti biasa, hari ni bangun pukul 11 pagi lagi. Rasa bersalah mula menyelubungi diri. Pastu otak ni mula la ligat berfikir cari bende apa nak buat supaya tak rasa bersalah sangat. Aha tetibe teringat kat budak ini.

' Kakak ! buatkan adik muffin. Adik suke makan muffin ! Tapi adik suke yang chocolate punye saje yang lain tak suke' (-_-)

Baiklah. Disebabkan adik pernah cakap macam tu kat kakak, jadi hari ni kakak buat muffin chocolate untuk adik. Buku recipe dulu dah hilang jadi cilok recipe online jeh. Terima kasih google :)

Mule-mule, gunekan double boiler untuk cairkan 200g cooking chocolate !

Kalau rasa diri seperti samseng dan mahu memukul, bolehlah pukul 2biji telo & 50g castor sugar sampai kembang. Agak-agak sudah menjadi seperti cik siti wan kembang, campakkan 70g batu butter & cooking chocolate yang dah cair tadi dalam mixture. Jikalau masih tidak puas hati dengan aktiviti memukul, tambahkan 60g self-raising flour & 1 sudu kecik baking powder. Pukullah sepuas hati asalkan anda gembira.

Selepas hati menjadi tenang kerana terkenangkan yang sabar adelah separuh daripada iman, berhentilah memukul dan masukkan mixture dalam muffin cup. masukkan approx 60% daripada ketinggian cup. Untuk resipi kali ni, boleh buat 6-7 cups. Tapi Fatin Liyana kenapa dalam gambar ade 9 cups? Korang pasan je an salah aku? cis.... gajah obesity depan mata tak nampak..kuman di kuala terengganu nampak..takpe takpe....aku de sebab peribadi knapa aku buat 9..(pdhal dah tersilap) hahaha

Masukkan dalam oven mak kau dan bakar sesuka hati pada temperature 180 for about 30mins. Jangan guna oven mak orang lain kalau tak nak kono sekeh.

Walaweyh. Pegi beli whipped cream, masuk dalam bowl & whip as if there's no tomorrow. Bile dah cam fluffy pipekan atas muffin & taburkan chocolate chips.

Aku rasa nak apply part time kat bakery lah (-_-). Bye selamat mencube semua!

Oh 3 years feels like 3 minutes...

A week more. I wish! I don't wanna jinx it actually. I'm just so so afraid that I won't be able to grad this year. Despite the photoshoot sessions me and my friends had today, all of us wants to forget how we did on our final year project assessments. Lotsa UTM students have gone back to their hometown, thus making it easier for us to wander arround the UTM compound for shots.

I was wearing: Supre oversized tee and clincher / Old Blossom Box eyelet skirt / MNG skinny / Nose wedges / Primark bangle

Oh, and for those who haven't voted for me yet, you can vote here! Thank you sooo much in advance!

One more thing, I'm on twitter now..follow me yah :)

Bole tak nak berkongsi kegembiraan dengan anda semua ?

Hi assalamualaikum.

Lame betol tak update blog rasa macam melukut gantang di tepi tebing. ade ke peribahasa camni? hahaha sorry le gwa dok indon gwa tak expert base melayu. Korang layankan je la ek :).

Sewaktu aku menaip entry ni, maksudnya dah 3 hari aku sampai Mesia tercinta. Korang tau tak aku kemain semangat membuak-buak nak update blog tapi aku takde USBBB. korang mesti ingat aku salah eje an an. betul tu ejaaan aku, cume takde jarak je. USB BB (usb BlackBerry). Aku tak leh la buat entry tanpa gambar rase macam bersalah terhadap benak sanubari ni. Anyway, aku da beli usb bb ni a. Jadi meh aku sajikan korang ngan kronologi kejadian indah ciptaan tuhan yang berlaku kat aku, walaupun pada asalnya pelbagai rintangan udara,darat,physical & mental yang berlaku kat aku huhu. say that magic word! Alhamdullillah syukur ya Allah.

Kitorang sebagai pendatang asing kat indon ni a, kalau nak balik, kena buat surat BEBAS FISKAL & buat re-entry PERMIT. Benda ni leceh sebab kena apply kat faculty, pastu hantar kat PADMA & PADMA akan hantar kat imegresen tok next procedure. Bese akan siap dalam 2 minggu. Tapi mmg cibet nasib gwa tak baik, 1 hari sebelum flight pon aku punye tak siap lagi. Gile kentang bai, kalau tak siap, aku tak dapek balik mesia, so burn la wet tiket! Aku tak kesah kalau tiket flight sejajar dengan harga Tora ataupon keropok BIKA. Tapi wet tiket mahal ang tau dak. tau dak. tau dak. tau dak. Tapi dengan izin Allah, faculty buat surat tok aku onthespot. ONTHESPOT weyh. dan oleh itu aku dapat pulang ke mesia with rexona no sweat challenge.

Berkat memakse mak sendiri suroh buatkan solat sunat pelbagai variasi, akhirnya mendapat keputusan final yang mampu membanggakan ibu bapa sendiri. Walaupun tak gempak macam Hanis Zalikha ataupun Aimi Syairah namun aku bersyukur sebab takde C. Sedaplah sikit mata mak ayah nak pandang kan.. Cam aku cakap, aku tak aim tinggi-tinggi, gpon aku bukan pandai sangat pon nak aim tinggi-tinggi, takat boleh buat parents gembira & MARA tak tarik scholar aku, dah oraet tu bro.

Tu dia aku pegi airport sorang diri pukul 3 pagi sebab flight aku kol 6pg. Syukur la tak kena culik ngan mat indon atau ahmad indon ataupon siti nur indon. Mungkin sbb mata sembab sangat kot. hahaha

Sampai ja mesia, tros g cari majalah DARA edisi MAY 2010..page 86-87 korang boleh bace sal aku. Syukur alhamdulillah terpilih gak aku masuk majalah. Merasa la cam artis sekejap..hahahaha :P tolong a bagi aku peluang perasaan sat...sat ja sat ja haha!

Lepas tu sampai rumah pulak, murah rezeki, hadiah2 contest menunggu depan mata. Terima kasih Delisya, Cosmo Ladies & Walai Batik sebab kasi hadiah best-best secara percuma..Bagaikan kera mendapat bunga aku punya reaksi sewaktu membuka packaging korang bagi ni ^__^.

Tiba-tiba nampak cina kat umah aku..gaya macam cina samseng jual vcd lucah..siap maen ps2 kat umah aku..mangai ni mmg boto-boto samseng ni, slambe abah dio yo nak men ps2 kek umah den..namun bila mata kami bertentang, barulah aku tau 'EH ADIK AKU??' hahahah !

Walaupun rambut blonde tapi cool je pegi semayang jumaat..ayah aku pulak yang tersipu-sipu malu haha.. dak Han ni lah yang bakal mewaris perniagaan ayah aku..die keje ngan ayah aku kat used car..ilmu pasal kete memang kat ujong jari.. masa gmbar atas ni, aku pegi amek asfiq balik sekolah, sekali kete takleh start sebab battery weak..Kol die, dalam 5 minit camtu die datang bagaikan superhero sambil membawa jumping wire & battery. tung tang tung tang, da settle. Han u are my hero :')

Oklah tu je..aku ni cuti sebulan..sapa rasa nak belanja aku jom a..nohal yang penting bawak dslr eh..haha xdelah joking! Lagi satu FB da full, tak leh add dah..sorry tau. Aku rasa cam nak jumpe Mark Zuckenberg dan luahkan rasa kekecewaan aku terhadap FB.

Thank you for reading this entry !
