The Real Housewife Life!

Salam:) Really?..looks like real my title kan..i became a full time housewife today but a lil bit (or more than a lil bit actually) halaluya;) To the full time housewives i salute them,they are smart,beautiful ,fulled with loves and multiskilled people.:)

Kadang2 tak rasa bagus nak cerita yang happy2 saja,we have some sad and worried times too...but as the title of the blog says "We tell sweet stories" so we cerita2 yg manis2 ajer:)These past few weeks i was really worried because the girls asyik keluar masuk jumpa doctor ajer,Tia pulak bila malam demam..siang baik,malam letak kepala ajer temperature naik.so really risau.Today i decided to take her to see her old pead Dato Dr Musa at damansara specialist,pergi bertiga ajer,papa had meeting today and i can't wait for him,parking at dsh always teruk so went for valet,Q at the clinic pun sangat panjang semua nak jumpa DDM,menunggu  satu jam setengah ,itu pun nasib baik selalunya longer than that,after the thorough check up he said everything is okay cuma ubat given by the hopsital before lambat jalan.DDM ni muka memang kering,tak ada jokes etc but he is really good,dengan izin Allah Sbt after jumpa dia mesti lah budak sembuh..as i am typing now Tia is sleeping and her temperature went down to 36.5..Alhamdulillah sangat.happy rasanya. Satu lagi kalau anak sakit kalau boleh biarlah kita duduk rumah maid memang tak berapa boleh nak harap,macam my case my maid memang sayang kat budak2 tapi akal tu sedikit pendek,buat kerja rumah memang pandai,macam semalam balik petang tengok tia menangis atas dukungan dia,badan panas,dia mandikan air panas,pakaikan pyjama long sleeves,siap berselimut,merah padam muka tia,i bukak baju,lap badan,baru turun temperature:)They memang tak faham sekali kita bagi instruction masa budak selsema cakap,petang2 guna hot water,apa keadaan sekali pun mesti dia mandikan hot water.Kita dengan maid ni memang kena jadi satu team,tak boleh harap dia,dia ada tenaga nak buat kerja tapi kurang akal,nak kita marah selalu kesian,dia pun manusia,kita tahu dia penat,kalau dia ikhlas,tak berniat jahat kalau boleh memang kena ringankan beban..tadi di clinic tengok maid2 indon yang kerja dengan keluarga cina,kesian keadaan dia orang..sampai nampak macam terencat akal.Menunggu di clinic memang boleh menimbulkan banyak gossip..bukan mengata sekadar hiburan..boleh tengok para2 ibu yang masuk dengan "Gucci,Prada,Chanel,LV..stroller babies pulak macam2 yang canggih..muka yang masam,nak terpijak anak kita pun tak pedulik,yang peramah,yang rasa dia paling banyak duit,yang ada maid sampai 3..ada ibu yang langsung tak pegang anak menangis,maid yang nak tergolek2,lap badan,bagi susu,si ibu hanya pegang si Christian Dior dan Blackberry....selain hati kecil yang sedikit berdosa kerana bergossip sendirian.. keinsafan pun banyak dapat..yang sakit teruk dari anak kita,yang menderita,yang tak tertanggung beban..terus rasa Ya Allah sangat syukur kerana mampu bawak anak berubat di tempat yang baik,ada rezki,tak sakit teruk etc..Setengah hari di hopsital macam2 pelajaran boleh dapat.

Okay lah jom tengok apa "A day Fulltime housewife" buat today;)

After sending Tia and Mia back home,i went to office to pick up kak sue my friend,we went to Wilton to pay our baking class fee.

I always love going to baking or household shops,kalau travel dapat masuk kedai2 yang kecik jual barang2 baking or pots and pans rasa dapat masuk Prada macam tu:)

Kak Sue was asking "who is the teacher?" ohhhh we gonna have one male english teacher,harap2 biarlah dia se cute Jamie Oliver or se macho Chuck from "Chuck days off" tu yaa..he..hee..

Banyak barang2 cookinh yang i suka macam vinegar,pasta etc kat sini,mostly imported and yang tak ada kat supermarket ada kat sini:)

and...paling suka bila tengok benda berat ni..i always love these..really berat and pricey..kalau jatuh kat kaki memang pecah ibu jari...nak hempas pulak tak boleh sebab mahal kan..haaa..haaa..so gorgoeus these cooking/baking dish.

I love this bright yellow..can go from oven to table;) very french;)

For a start kena bali apron..I am a sugar artist now:)

Many nice items in the shop including knick knacks for the kitchen.

After we parted with quite substantial amount of money at Wilton, we went jamu selera at Sari Ratu..so sedap;) cili rules here:)

My favourite,no oil asam pedas tenggiri..sangat sedap;)

Daging goreng berlado..pun sedap;)

Goreng kambas..sodap jugak:)

Ini satu lagi my favourite..terung goreng berlado..semua lado lado yang sayo suko:)

"Ampon mama" kata budak kecik ni..kemestian now..tu carpet ikea jugak..beli letak kat luar bilik,tapi Tia Mia heret bawak masuk,they said "grass carpet"..

So hari saya hari ni banyak halaluya jugak kan ya..p.s memang betul after dah bayar fee,saya pergi beli tops and bottoms kat East India..rasa sangat berbaloi sebab sales 50%,..2 skirts,3 tops dan satu necklace saya sama harga dengan 2 botol Avents,satu milk warmer bag tiamia dari mothercare.:) Cekik darah betul Avent ni:( Apa pun Alhamdulillah:)

My Wednesday Pictures:)

Salam:) Hope everybody out there will have a beautiful day today:) I know for a fact some of us are not happy for some reason,some said it is too long and they can't really cope with it,some said i am in pain for a decade that i don;t feel anything anymore, some even said i don't know when sun is going to shine on me..it seems that darkness is forever. Easy said than done..please be sabar Allah Sbt has reason for giving rainbow late or fast..only he knows,when we are in pain we can't see the reason why we are chosen to endure pain but when the happiness wraps us than we only see that the pain are all worth for.Sometimes if there's is no pain,no sadness we walk without looking,we forgot to look at small thing,forgot to appreciate more..with pain,with sadness we appreciate even a sip of fresh air and when we look at the people in pain we can relate,we are willing to help,with that we share our loves,share our things..we become more human..when we become more human life is more meaningful as Allah Sbt has given all the best in creating human compared to others.

To my fellow friends who are sad or in the darkness..please remenber the rainbow is just around the corner,if it far from just around the corner insyAllah Allah Sbt is giving you more than rainbow,may be it;s a sun,it's a moon...and it is so worth waiting for a sun or a moon!..Like pepatah cinta said 'sanggup menunggu beribu tahun demi setitis cinta!"

Enough said,let see some pictures, i did some makeover to uwan's room with items from Ikea:)

Uwan has all the white things in her room.

Anebode chest drawer,new lampshade,mirror and plant.

Uwan doa for us ehh..ampun us too..may uwan panjang umur,sihat badan,diberkati sentiasa and boleh tengok TiaMia besar jadi anak dara:)

No entry goes without food picture..our Morning breakfast Alfredo Linguine with beef salami,capsicum and zuchinni;)

Sitting on bed watching VCD together is a "BIG HAPPINES' to us!

Short Story.

Breakfast@Office with new cushions and plant from Ikea.

I ve got short story to tell today but before that just wanna show my office sofa new look *wink*wink* I went to Ikea yesterday with a mission to buy new things for uwan's room i.e lampshade,carpet,wardrobe and a chest drawer but the damage was more than that!! I also bought dinner plates,soup bowls,2 carpets instead of 1,wooden tray,mirror,cushions cover,aluminium plant pots,plants...alololo..ikea memang macam tu..rasa semua murah tapi total..alamak:):) No regret i had my favourite open face shrimps sandwich and salmon with lemon herbs sauce too:) This morning i sat happily at my old sofa with new cushions and yummy wholemeal sandwich as for uwan her new items will arrive today..nak bagi new look sikit kat uwan's room as most of the items inside her room were from my single days)

Alololo..park kaki kejap before cerita..malam tadi penat betul..i had this footpatch..so try lah..dulu2 orang cakap this thing tipu sebab yang hitam tu not actually toxic from your body but just some herbs they put inside that will react with your sweat and eventually turns to black:) Entahlah..benda2 ni so much in your head actually..benda ni beli kat office murah..so letak lah malam tadi,since masa letak tu dah ingat dalam kepala after ni mesti lah segar ni..indeed!!! memang lah segar after that:)

The Story:

Actually it is about a wife with a very big ambition,willing to sleep with her boss in order to get what she wants..yeapp she is at the top now,flying high,her husband divorced her and he remarried,she is still chasing the boss..no indication of him marrying her...the story is very saucy..i thot of putting the details here but i don't feel good...tapi sebagai peringatan enough to say "Kenali bahagia dulu,find the definition,ask your heart..sebab yang patah kadang2 tak tumbuh dan yang hilang tak berganti,nasib tak selalu baik..hidup tak sentiasa muda".I dont think she is happy now..surrounded by money and branded items but she is like a lost little girl,seeking attention whenever possible..such a pity. Tak saucy langsung my story kan..what to do..saya set saya punya batasan dalam bercerita:):) seburuk mana orang dia masih manusia:):)

Finally; dapat bahagia sikit2 cukuplah kan,mula dengan yang sikit, insyallah dapat yang banyak..macam letak foot patch tu..pun seronok..kihh..kihh..nanti kalau orang urut lagi seronok..wahhh ada balance cuti last year lagi sehari nak kena habiskan before 1st April lah..so kena cuti tiba2 this Thursday..wahhhhhh bahagia..after hantar TiaMia kindly boleh urut kaki besar2..bahagia besar2 sayaaaa:)

Can you catch it? Can you feel it? I think i have mentioned that i had attended good talk organised by my company, a lecturer from US talked about this good and positive energy,he said you need to dicharge these good vibes and energy from the moment you open your eyes in the morning..Insyallah your day will be good:) Kalau tak nowadays banyak benar yang buat susah hati,pagi2 rushing,baju tak ada yg sesuai,kasut koyak,jalan jam,sampai office lambat,kerja buat sakit hati,tengok orang pun sakit hati,bahasa jadi kasar and hati pun mula jadi marah;) Not good,not good:):)

Another important thing is : in order to make your day beautiful  make other people's day beautiful too..so start with filling their tummy with beautiful food;) I cooked this beautiful pesto pasta this morning, simple and yummy,i put up on my fb and i have few colleages walked  into my room  for recipe,so i share it here:
