Trip Back Home!

Image
Date : 28.2.2014-10.3.2014 It was really an impromptu decision to book a flight back to KL. JuliZac informed that there was this deal by AirAsia from Gold Coast to KL which got me browsing for plane tickets. In the end, I did not manage to see any great bargains but ended up craving to go back home. At last the decision was made because I could not get Kenny Roger's Chicken out of my mind. I know, that was kind of crazy... I could not sleep the night before the flight. We had this many close calls of nearly missing the plane, thus 2AM seems like a good idea to start moving from Toowoomba, although our flight was actually at 9AM. We stopped by Banora Point near Coolangatta to buy a Quicksmart Travel Stroller from an ad in Gumtree (Hah! Sempat lagi! ) and ended up waiting for nearly 2 hours at the departure hall. I don't care, better early than sorry. My KR Chicken is waiting for me!~ The only way to keep Kimi distracted throughout the plane ride is by giving him the iPa

Sejadah for Kimi

Image
I used to be so ambitious to become an eco-friendly mom. During my confinement with Kimi, I ventured into this pure-hearted project of making cloth wipes. You might find it somewhere in this blog archive which I won't be linking to as my pass self won't be too proud of my present-not-so-eco-friendly self. Anyways, nearly 3 years down the road, the cloth wipes are still neatly kept inside the cupboard, clean as a whistle, without any opportunity to wipe poo/pee. I am sure if these wipes can talk, they would be saying, "Thank God!" As I evaluated the situation, I thought it would be a good idea to make a little sejadah for Kimi by 'quilting' the cloth pieces together. Very feminine colours... I know... But since this photo was taken, Kimi had never again pretended to pray on it. He does not seem too interested to copy his dad during prayers like he used to. It is all about running around the house and throwing toys all over the floor. I really h

Weetabix Choc Chip Cookies

Nobody in this house likes to eat Weetabix, but I bought it on sale. I tried encouraging Hasben to eat it with Milo or Nescafe but that didn't work. I am not a fan of throwing out food unless there was absolutely no choice. I found this easy recipe for Weetabix Cookies: http://goodfoodshared.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/weetabix-chocolate-chip-cookies.html?m=1 and it tasted great. I even left out the 50g granulated sugar to try to be healthier... Haha~ While busy shaping the dough into little balls, Kimi, who was excitedly watching Disney Cars, accidentally stepped on the plate, squashing 2 pieces of cookie doughs with his foot!!! I was shouting, "Noooooo!" but he came closer with his foot verrryyy close to the other undamaged doughs, threatening with a menacing smile to re-perform the squashing ritual! Isn't he a cheeky little monster?! I ended up re-shaping the squashed dough - so much for healthy (or even hygienic) food... Oh well... Anyway, the finished pro
