Happy Birthday Kiddo!!

Kiddo's birthday is exactly 2 weeks after mine (different year though :P) Today's my kiddo bro's birthday (but ure no longer a kiddo and is now taller than me) hehe..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIDDO!

Your Birthdate: November 20

You are a virtual roller coaster of emotions, and most people enjoy the ride.Your mood tends to set the tone of the room, and when you're happy, this is a good thing.When you get in a dark mood, watch out - it's very hard to get you out of it.It's sometimes hard for you to cheer up, and your gloom can be contagious. Your strength: Your warm heart Your weakness: Trouble controlling your emotions Your power color: Black Your power symbol: Musical note Your power month: February

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

my kiddo bro is one who's good with his comp stuffs (actually he's a smart kid, when he puts his mind to doing something, usually he will achieve whatever he sets out to do), he has been teaching me lots including internet, blogging, making movies with softwares and alot of other stuffs; I just wanna say, kiddo, thank you for sharing and teaching me along the way...although we do fight at times, sometimes ur blood pressure will rise beyond the roof (and you feel like throwing me out of the window ;P)but we always find peace after that, dont we? :P well, put it simply, thanks for being a fantastic bro :)

hv a happy happy birthday..many happy returns of the day!

The last post I mentioned about my birthday...these are the really sweet and wonderful presents I received 'across the miles..with lots of love, hugs, kisses, misses...' hehehe

Thank you for all the phone calls I received at different time of the day from around the world..from Singapore (family, gfs), from Australia (kiddo bro), from USA (sis-in-law), from Pakistan (mom and dad)...

These are a part of a BIG parcel that I received from home, I have "dissect" the parcel that comes with lots of love..in there there are lots of tshirts for me, one for "The One", lots of goodies, snacks for us..birthday red packet from mommy and daddy, thank you..a birthday card from jie and bro-in-law and the 3 little nephews (the 3 angels on the card represented my 3 little nephews)...and guess what that little pink figurine is for?

other than the parcel from home, I received another cutey beary parcel from my close gfs and colleagues in Sg too (u ladies know who u are, i wont say too much in case i expose ur privacy hehehe) thank you for the forever friend bear bear with pic of u all, the snacks and especially those warm wishes hand written on the cards..miss u all too



last but not least, someone close to my heart, my "The One". As my birthday falls on a weekday, we did an earlier weekend celebration. We had a wonderful buffet and he got me a really nice winter jacket) :)

On my birthday, he didnt mention a word about my birthday in the morning... until the time when he came to fetch me at work and I mentioned to him the long distance phone calls I received wishing me happy birthday, he suddenly mentioned he forgot! Im sure u guys can imagine my face..hahahaha..i say 'ah, no cake one huh?'

It was raining that nite, although he did offer to go and get a cake, I figured, aiya raining and its getting late, I told him, "lets go home"..he looked so apologetic and said he will get one tomorrow to make up for it..

when we reached home, I was getting ready to prepare dinner..when i opened the fridge..there it is a CAKE hahaha my face lit up :P and beside the table was a card that reads, "To the woman I'm so glad I married....." hehe..i gave him a huggie and he gave me a cheeky smile n said "happy birthday!"

so to my Oscar award winner "The One"...Thank you for ur surprise :)

Thank you everyone for making me feel really 'special' on my special hatch day

my cravings....again...

The other day I was craving for something..I know, I know..I'm always craving this and that but what to do right? When you can't just buy it from the hawker centre like how we used to do it, we just have to cook it ourselves :P I'm sure alot of us who are away from home must share my cravings for those comfort food once a while, isnt it? ;)

So what do I crave again?....



...Something white,



...something with coconut,




...something with sambal chili...




but its actually something VERY SIMPLE...




YUP, its NASI LEMAK! (the pic was taken quite a while back) hehehe..

the rice is the key thing that i missed :P hehehe..i know the traditional call for pandan leaves but cant find those here, so I just skip that.

Coconut Rice

Ingredients
2 cups of rice
salt (to taste, about 1 tsp)
