Hubby's First Cook Dishes ; Nasi panas Ayam goreng kunyit

What's your hubby's first dish that he cook for you??

Mine? Hahaha..at first I was thinking that's gonna be something for to blog about...but then when my hubby bulatkan mata dia when I said ..''yeahh...am gonna blog about this so I can remember this forever''.. tapi bila dia dah bulatkan mata.. I straightly said..''it's ok sayang..if your dish turn out differently then I'll keep it as our secret and blog your second dish as your first one'' ...then he laughed...hahahahaa..

My hubby loves home cook..last weekend when we just came back from our vacation, he refused to dropped by for dinner somewhere else because he said he was thinking of eating this nasi panas2 with ayam kunyit sambal belacan. Yeah like the famous Mat Rock nasi ayam goreng kunyit at Bangsar close to his office. I never eat those..so I said..'' laaa..ayam kunyit kan selalu je I buat..how different could it be from that Mat Rock one''.

.coz he kept on saying..''bukan camtu la sayang..dia punya bla..bla..bla.. '' since am so penat to cook..so I keep on play..as not-understandable wife..hihihih...

at last he gave up and said..''ok..why not malam ni I cook for u my wife ..and u just do the sambal belacan je''..I was like phewww...legaaa..and got so excited bcoz that's gonna be my husband's first cook for me..

Then he started his cooking..but at the same time..his mouth also non stop talking. Hahahahaa..adoi...I just shut my mouth and listen to what he said. coz he got unsatisfied with it..so all the way I have to monitor him and give him kata2 semangat...hahahaha

''How do I know sayang..it's your menu..it's ok ..I promise I wont complaint''...

''it's ok honey.. you'll do just fine. No worries..those chicken seems fine and smells so good..I' ll eat whatever cooked by my beloved hubby and bla..bla'' ..to persuade him to keep on cooking and finish what he was doing.

And wallaaa...finally he did.. and it was awesome for me..mmg betul2 sedap pun..and when I add more rice to my plate he was sooooo happy...meaning that I loved what he cook for me. Of course I love it..those were so tasty but he was not satisfied coz he knew that was not exactly like the Mat Rock ayam kunyit one...hahaha.. But still..to avoid from being menderhaka to my hubby..I cannot post the picture of the  dishes that he cook for me...hihihih.. he told me..''eh..ni xjadi ni..nnti malu la I...'' hahahaha...'' ok..ok..I keep this one secret eh..''.... we laughed all the way

The next day.. I cooked for him again the dish and it turn out just exactly to what he want...he was like..''Haaaa...macam ni laaaaa dia punya tu.''...kembang hidung I jap..hahhahahaa.. I actually google about that famous nasi ayam kunyit goreng tu.. sebab tak puas hati..how can I didn't know about this. Nasi Ayam dara kukus..Nasi kukus ayam rempah...and such tu I know la...but that's was so common pun..and am not a fan of Nasi so I don't bother much unless I was soooo hungry. Just so that I can cook to what my husband really want to eat..so I buat la..such a good wifey I am kan..hahaha..

For me... it was actually ayam goreng kunyit yang sangat biasa..nothing extra ordinary pun...but it was so famous.. that everyone went there and beratur for so long. I think maybe people just got bored with those fancy food during lunch and this one is so freshly cook and makan panas2 sgt syokkk..that's why la kut ramai sangat yang suka.

Yang ini ...I yang masak... Ayam goreng kunyit garing then siramkan dengan sambal belacan yang sangat pedas....makan dengan nasi panas..boleh letak kicap jugak ( my hubby hantu kicap..so of course la kicap tu mmg diletaknya) . Simple haunted menu..if rasa bosan..masak je menu ni..sure makan bertambah.. I didn't use breast part..coz both of us tak makan part breast..so ayam kami mmg guna part thigh and drumstick.

DO WE REALLY HAVE TO SHOP FOR A NEW CLOTHES IF WE GET FAT?

Yesterday me having a cat fight with my hubby..it was all because of this fat belly (looking down and gave it a wild stares..arrgghhh bikin maluuuuu !! ) It was all started like this..I left most of my clothes at my MIL house in Ampang, and so my working attire. So.. I don't have enough of it and makes me think that I don't have nice new clothes to go to work (the fact is ..I actually do have..hihi.. I just make it as an excuse to buy a new clothes).

Buttttttttttt.....I just don't understand...when I was at the mall yesterday..most of the clothes with sale..are all in 's' and 'xs' size!!! And they are all pretty and I took quite a long time searching and also in the fitting room to fit all those glorious non-s size. And I kept sussssshhiing my hubby away coz I don't want him to follow me and at the same time annoying me to make me decide faster. Trust me..men can be super duper annoying sometimes with gorgeous shopaholic lady... ngeee...(grinned). Just give me that damn money and let me be alone la...Gosshhh..that's why I don't like having men while shopping. But usually ..I loves having him around..because we have the same taste in choosing what we want. It was just yesterday, because he couldn't find what he wanted so he urged me to get hurried. Urrrggghhhhh.... I was having trouble getting my size as I already gaining my weight now..then of course I sucked up..but still managed to get one in my bucket. Only one... then I think..I regreted..he was right..i'm getting fat. I shouldnt buy..I should slim down a bit first.

While on our way back..I was still sucked-up..I started to think to rebel..am going to starve myself and he is going to watch it and then he might be kesian a bit on me...hahahahhaa..terrible me..

But no...I really have to take care of myself...no matter how tempting all those dishes that I cook for him..I shouldnt eat as much as him..now am blaming all those ketam bangkok..udang sambal petai..ayam goreng..sotong goreng kunyit..nasi ayam..nasi dagang..and suchs!! hahahahah..

Ok..ok..I should start my jamu again and kick my but and get on the track with my soon to buy roller blade. Hehehheee...see...nak exercise pun nak beli barang baru jugak..that's why my hubby bising..tp actually after I console him kaw kaw..he will be like..''yer la..i pun nak jugak la..lama x skate..nnti blh skate sama2''...(dalam hati..hahahhaa...legaaaaa...). ABout the jamu tu..I only use kunyit hidup blended and mix with air asam jawa and honey. Inshaa Allah jadi kurus... ngeeee..

Smile...Love and Pray

Sometimes..we just don't really know what we were doing nor thinking. Lately I tend to get blurred or blank in just a second not knowing what to say or do. Sometimes Most of the times...I wish that I can turn back time and re-think of which way should I go to make life a lot easier. But how do I be so certain of the road chosen? Reminiscing back of my childhood and teenage life was wonderful. I was terribly spoilt.. I don't have to think of how to get those money..I only spent and swipe that supplementary card given by my father.

But now, in all seriousness ... I come to know what's the real value of money..the real value of time that's ticking. I come to know how painful it is to earn living and getting money by yourself. How hard it is to get your mortgage and bills pays every single month. Every time I got my salary, I always think..would it be wonderful if i could use this money to buy my clothes, make up and go traveling like how I use to do before. But NO, that ain't gonna happen, not until I can get my account surpass beyond what am getting right now. Which means, I have to work extra harder to earn comfort income. No one will tell you to get real and work hard and so to get rich..not even the book of ''rich dad poor dad'' can tell you that. You have to ass-kicking yourself now. No more spoon fed.. No one is good enough to tell you how to ''skin the cat'' and gain money for free without having any agendas behind.

I always think..how come I wasn't born as a king's daughter who have everything in the whole world?? But ..would I be happier than what I am today? Can a king's daughter play with dirt's and go in the deep forest and get wild with the wilderness of the forest?? Would every one would sincerely want to be friend with me without thinking of getting any benefit out of the relationship??

And some other questions like..why didn't I chose a VIP as my husband? I should have try harder and be desperately pushy to get to my target person... Why do I have to buy all those expensive clothes and bags? Why can't i be moderate in most of the things?? Why do I have to ask all this question and get the answer by myself?? Hehehehee..it's getting annoying right? But am sure that some of you guys out there are also facing the same thing like me too, isn't it? And you will start saying..yeah..true..true la..me toooo..hahahaa..

Thinking of rewinding your life isn't working. You have to face it either or. Actually ...this is what written in your luft mahfudz ( err..am not so sure of the right spelling and yet lazy to google..kira halal la yer) ..just pray to god and He will keep you in safe...that's what I always do..coz am scared to face my future without having any protection. All that I have is Allah.. We never know our future nor predict anything about it.. and it's goes the same if we chose the other road that looks much brighter than what we have now. Each road has it's own ups and down...either way we have to face it...It's like walking in a thick jungle..sometimes we have to jump the cliff and stay alive, sometimes we have to 'corner baring' a bit..sometimes we have to run and sometimes we can walk steadily...then swim the river..got chase by fierce things..and etcetra etcetra.... Seems so tiring right? But then again, when I sat down and think about how miracle god's gift to a women who has nothing and yet still can afford to raised many child in their family..I got amazed and be thankful to what I have today. If you think your life is hard, terrible and full of pressure, look down and think again. The best you can do is to keep your God with you and stay safe all the way. There is no such thing as reaching to light at the end of the tunnel..coz even though you have reached it..there's gonna be the next tunnel that you have to go through..hell know what's inside that is waiting for you and how big the obstacle that you gonna have to face soon...

In order to invite a good vibes to your daily life..you yourself have to give out a good vibes to others..wake-up early in the morning, do your pray and start your day by spreading all the good vibes such as sadaqah or anything...at the end of the day..it will come back to you. But if they don't..don't get upset...it might not get straightly back to you but maybe to your mom or dad or anyone that you loves tenderly...
