Teatime ?

This is actually an old picture I took somewhere in November. I haven't got the time to post it (same old excuse). The kids were having their classes at Solaris Mt Kiara and since it took about 2 hours the most for the kids to finish their classes we normally decided just to have coffee while waiting for them.
The usual spots would normally be either Coffee Bean, Chillacup, Dr Cafe Coffee or Bistari.
That day would be Chillacup cause I have this thing about their Caramel Machiatto. It is simply divine.

KLCC..

I think the last time I went to KLCC was like 3 months ago. I was quite surprise to see the new tenants that they have. Loads of new shops available and there are even new lane appearing in the mall or was it there but I didn't realize about it.

There were like a sea of people in KLCC and I feel suffocated with the crowds I'm in....especially with the smell...yucks!!!!

We had our lunch at Chillies, we were supposed to wait for about 20 mins but since the other people who are waiting do not have complete group, they gave us a table first...yeay!!!!.

Before we went back home, I got myself 1kg of macadamia popcorn and 1kg of caramel popcorn at Garrett's. And I have been munching it every evening while watching TV until my gums hurt and my jaw felt tired of all the chewing. Damn!!!! the macadamia caramel popcorn really are yummilicious......


Pancake Again....

People says practice makes perfect. Does it really apply to me? Well, I don't exactly practicing making pancake everyday. Just and when I have the desire to make it for the kids and with all the limited time I have, I tried my best to make it edible...hehehehehheheh...

Morning Ramblings




One thing I like about staying in an apartment is that I got to have a top view of my surrounding. At dawn, the air is serenely cold even though that my apartment is at the heart of the city, amidst all pollutions that human beings themselves created and contributed in the name of life's preservation and survival . What an irony!!!.
Life could have never been better.....at that moment. But once the sun is awake and generously open up its love to all, I can feel the heat seeping through like a love of mother nature loving its surrounding without any boundaries. 
With a mug of coffee and a book, I tried to immerse myself in the plot that has been laid out in front of me but I could not concentrate as I have so many thoughts going through my mind.
Things that are unnecessary, things that are essential, things that should have been left behind and things that involved the future.
Hence I grabbed my lappy and started rambling my thoughts.

What a life and I love my morning view....

Picturesque Post #6

Someone Like You - Adele

I heard that you're settled down

That you found a girl and you're married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,"

Yeah.

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."

Food for the lonely one.....

Here we go....food again.

An ole friend of mine, trying recipe to kill of the extra time he had on hand. To my knowledge, he is a good cook hence it is not a surprise to see him coming up with such delectable dish (compare to my pathetic pancake miahahahahahahha!!!!!!)









I could not find any recipe together with the pictures, perhaps it was not attached together. Oh well, let me ask for it then I shall try it once my throat is better.

Outing with the Amins

In light of me not able to eat properly due to this swelling in my throat, I have some pictures of food that I had when I went out with the Amins' sisters. This outing was a few months back after the BBW thingy in Oct, if I'm not mistaken. The younger sister has moved back to Kuantan as she was transferred there. So once a while she will be coming down to KL and we will have our food feasta together.......ngeeeehhhhh.....

Our lunch

What's left of our lunch

Just another day.......

I'm still feeling under the weather. The swelling has reduced but the pain is still there...a bit. I don't have the energy to cook any extravagance kind of dish nor I have the mood to eat outside. Hence I settled for a homemade rice porridge with crispy fried anchovies, spicy chicken flossy and some frozen beef dish that he bought from his office mate. Surprisingly, the kids enjoy this simple dish and as for me, I just shoved whatever in my porridge bowl so that I could get it over with. And as usual, he doesn't mind the simple dish too as long as his dinner consist either crispy fried anchovies or anything spicy and extra hot.
Anyway I took my medication and call it a day...or more like trying because I still couldn't sleep.

Swelling

Yesterday I woke up with a pain at my right throat. Not the normal sore throat that we usually had when we caught flu or experiencing tonsillitis. It is more like swollen and painful. Thought it might go away after a good exercise, followed with a good rest. Though I couldn't sleep after the vigorous exercise. I was like fatigue and restless. Desperately needing some good sleep but couldn't close my eyes, I ended up watching some nonsensical movies on the telly. And I was only able to close my eyes around 2am.

This morning I woke up with a feeling like I've swollen a golf ball and it got stucked somewhere at my right throat. Had a slight headache and I notice my face looks like a bread.
Well ok, I exaggerated on the face part. But my male colleague did say that my face looks more rounded today.

I didn't manage to complete my weekly report as I was supposed to. On top of that, I can feel that my throat is getting bad. Knowing that this swelling won't go away by itself, I went to the clinic and the doctor ask me whether I'm having toothache because he said that my lymph node is swollen. And it is kinda funny because it swell just at my right throat.
He prescribed me some antibiotic which I must finish and some painkiller. Had dinner with the kids and gulp down the medicine with a bottle of water and now I feel better.
