the reason

I soo want to update my 3 .. mm 4 blogs .. with few good pictures of course .. but soo many things are on the way .
First my notebook was hospitalized last week .. after it recovered, my modem battery needs to be replaced .. :(
I have to buy the battery in itc roxy *how I gonna ever to go there ??
I'm hoping my husband could go there .. but don't know when he has the time.
Soo many pending projects .. but luckily it's not for anybody's order yet ^^
Oh and I have new nephew !! that's one big news rite ? I went to the hospital several times and this weekend
my sis asked me to teach her how to baby sit *oh .. as if I'm the expert :">
Will post his cute little face soon !!

present for raoul

My nephew's birthday was on January .. but because of this and that, I managed to give the presents this march .. Please forgive your lazy auntie Raoul ^^
I made the robot applique and attach it to the existing oblong top and also made the pants using combined woven cotton (it surely is comfortable) .. Al will have the same pants too (it's not sewn yet ^^).

friends wedding

We went to friends wedding last Sunday. It was held in Bandung, Bumi Sangkuriang. It's an outdoor party (good thing because the building is old, so it will need lots of decoration). I'm in love with the decorator taste .. they are into details, very neat, creative. I always adore Bandung atmosphere and their talented artists .. somehow together they really make the 'Bandung Paris van Java' idiom come into reality.
I wish I brought my kids here, the view is spacious, I'm sure they would love to play in there .. But I remember that our reason is to avoid morning rush with the kids, their boredom in the way to Bandung and also their impatience of waiting their mommy shopping :)

first crunches, done !

Okay, the excess fat in my tummy really2 annoys me .. It's hard for me to find the right size of pants without squeezing my tummy .. i know, it's been my problem since my first delivery, but after three consecutive pregnancies and deliveries, the excess fat I had now is the biggest ..
At first, I want join aerobic classes, but I don't think I have the time. So last night I did several crunches in bed. After 20 sit ups, I was lack of breath .. *ngos2an ceritanya ..
but my oldest was cheering me up .. She said 'Ayo bunda, olahraga (come on bunda, keep practising) !'
she tried to do the same exercise .. I was so touched ;')
I plan to do this every night .. wish me luck

arisan RT

It's my first time hosting arisan RT (group of people in our community gather around to collect some money for public services and chit chat in) .. There will be around 30 people coming, and with the 250k rupiah given I should be able to provide some snacks and light meal. So we're making soto mie from here, and I bought the snacks from the pastry shop. The result is quite delightful (thanks to my lovely assistants, and it cost us around 300-350k (include the extra tips for my assistants) .

nutella cookies

My daughter is so persistent she made me make a choc.olate chip cookie last sunday .. with any supply you had (she wouldn't care if I don't have this and that, I have to make it !)
ok, if its not because of her persistency, I might never discover this recipe by myself.
my lack of cocoa powder supply brings this recipe to another account.
check it out :

Ingredients :
---------------
140gr flour
100gr caster sugar
1 egg
75gr margarine
2 sachet of koko crunch
chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda (soda kue)
1 teaspoon vanilla crystal
pinch of salt
2 tablespoon of nutella

how to :
----------
mix together flour, caster sugar, baking powder, vanilla, baking soda, salt and nutella
in separate bowl, mix or blend margarine and egg until they are soft and well beaten
crush the koko crunch into little crumbs
put it inside the flour mix, and then put the margarine-egg blend also
stir it using big spoon until they change color into chocolate and until evenly beaten
last but not least, pour the chocolate chips inside the cookie dough

preheat the oven 150-180 C. I use 150 C because of the power consumption ;P
meanwhile, prepare the bread paper on top of the loyang
kids could help shaping the cookie dough ..


careful, you might caught them eating the dough ;)





bake the cookie 15-30 min depending on the temperature you used.
do not bake too long if you want to get the chewy version

there you go, its soo easy.

your kid could also help stuffing the cookies inside the cookie jar ..

as you can see, my oldest didn't care about the cookies anymore (that's sooo her !)

voila .. all done (clap clap clap)

yes you can keep it dear ;) don't forget to share it to your little brother ..
he has been peeking all day long

playing with my pocket

Husband knows how much I want to purchase new SLR .. I want it badly ..
but we are in a situation that it has to come after other priorities ..
I must not complain, I have blessed with soo many things that I could not mention one by one ..
In the mean time, I play around with my pocket ;)
I bought it 2.5 years ago, a few days before the birth of Shafa .. we have to document it right ?
it cost us 1.5 mill (klo gak salah).

shafa 5 mon

I nearly forgot how cute shafa was when she's 5 month old.



Look at her now (32 mon), soo pretty and girly. Her smile could melt any hearts away.
Shafa, eat well ok.. It really hurts Bunda everytime Bunda received news from the nannies that you do not want to eat rice .. or when it took 1-2 hours for you to finish the meal (with several 'lepehan' of course).

I love you soo pumpkin ..
