What's New in Town?

Hurry, hurry, check it out!
 
 
Lidl
 
New grocery store is now opening near our residence - just at the back of Isambard Complex, to be exact near the ferndale crescent bus stop, next to Ford's showroom. About the price, what can I say it have more or less price compare with other stores, depends on the items, but for the nearby residence - its the distance matter, hehe.
Ok, will show u the random products in the other entry later.

See, the sky in the photos, ohhh, how beautiful!!
Did I had mention before that the sky here are so photogenic! They are awesome in many ways and in any situation, love it!
 

 
Next is, Fun Fair !!
 
Near the Yiewsley - West Drayton area, at the time I took these photos, they just about to set up the place. Guess it must be ready now =)
 

 
And last ...what's new in the collection, hehe, The House by The Sea!! Cheap, got it for a  £1 whereas the normal price was  £12.99. hihi
The story takes place from the Tuscani, Italian countryside to the beautiful English coast, England's Devon. That's all for now, see ya , hopefully I can publish few entries before the Easter Break.

Will the 'Wintery' March Eclipse the Spring?

 

Salam, hello there = )
 
It's supposed to be beginning of spring this month
, March - but winter seems doesn't wanna say goodbye to us here, hihi.

 
The weather is getting colder since last weekend, and not only that, light snow also fell today and few on last Monday.
Me as usual tried to enjoy every precious moments and thankful for all of these experiences
 
Still remember my previous photo posted on my FB about snow kitty? Hey, I found it published on the Brunel Buletin Newspaper - Le Nurb, so called as "Purrrfect Snowcat" !! Hehehe, so excited cause finally we found who are the creative artist that doing such a great sculpture. He must be pretty proud of his effort, hehe, so coollll!

Comforting Winter

Salam Everyone!
Hope not too late to wish everybody a good long break and Happy CNY to all my chinese friends :)
May all of you enjoy the holidays with family & friends, having some good foods (for sure, mom's cooking are the best!), and in a good health too.
 
Well, what we (It's me actually, hehe) did during the 'holiday' .. No jalan-jalan this weekend since its raining through the weekend...not only raining, but it's turn to SNOW today..yes, again and again, how's grateful we are for having a blissful winter this time. Maybe it's the last snow for this season, huhu, gonna keep these beautiful memories deeply ..

**snow showers heavily falling down outside **

I bought a mini cupcake maker yesterday, and it's not made in UK..hehehe, it's from China okay. Well, its actually looks and functional like a bahulu maker..hahaha. So, I'm trying to bake the simplest cupcake recipe ( 1 egg, lemon juice, 50gram of self raising flour, 50gram of butter and 50gram of sugar), simple isn't it? Hihi
Here there are - the output quite funny (ni budak-budak mesti suka) and the taste not bad,hihi-enak dimakan begitu saja!




mini lemon vanilla cupcake OR I rather call them 'bahulu' without any decoration yet (my fav whipping cream running out of stock!)

Ok, back to the winter-mood, here are the few guide or what you maybe need during the freezing temperature. Not neccessary, depends..that's why I say it..maybe =)
Beside the winter coat or jacket and gloves, the thermal inside was helping me warm the body so much. We already bought at Universal Treveller in Malaysia before came here, but we found below quite comfortable (bought here) ... tight size more warm compare the loose one. Anyway, I did wear several layers last time during snowy-playing-time hehehe..that's why looks "cool" main dgn salji.hehe

What else... okay, you might be suffer with a dry skin's problem, so keep your skin moist with the lotion and this brand E45 are most recommended. Other than that Vaseline is the bestt, haha, sapu la memana yang nak, lips or in any other skin's area especially your elbow
 
Muffler scarfs

Lastly... the boot!!
Hahaha, water and snow resistance, wink!!
Told you ianya agak membazir,,since hanya dipakai ketika main snow, but mmg puas hati sbb takmasuk air and shoe soles grip tightly - fyi, jalan akan menjadi sgt licin due to after snow-efffect.

Sehangat Asmara | Early Reviews

Hello readers, salam. 
Still remember my previous short entry on Sehangat Asmara? 

 
Well well well, it's already on the screen- and the problem is (definitely this is my problem,hihihi,not the other animals in the earth!) I still can't feel the X-Factor for this TV version! Upsss! Being the No.1 fan of the Novel, I expect more from them,huhuhu, but I know, it's still too early for the judgement. Will give 'em a chance, hopefully it's better next week. 

I'm good with Rita Rudaini and Adi Putra, it's just I don't like the way Adira tune the evergreen-fav-Ratuku-song! Hahaha, and of course plus the other things.
See, how the soundtrack can give audience like me a big impact! Awie went well and usually Adira was better just not this time. The crew also used the same OST of AdamHawa as one of their scene background music. Come on, even I knew the Shahir's song is just perfect but it just make the series typical with other. Hemm, ok, enough rambling, hihihi, it's just my view, nothing serious.
So, how about you?

Veg Every Tuesday

Yeah, vegetables and fruits are back to campus again after the term break!!


Actually not only veg and fruits, there also have fresh seafood booth and selling variety of fish, lobster, prawn and crab. But never try to buy it before - agak pelik-pelik physical seafood disini hehe, later teringin jugak nak beli kot. 

 Duck eggs pun ada jual yer, boleh sangat kalau teringin nak buat masak lemak (^_^)
So, klu tak keluar market, anda boleh beli pelbagai sayuran disini dengan harga yang lebih kurang sama dgn market luar but, hey, its fresh!! And some items even more cheaper. Kalau pergi pagi masih byk pilihan, and after range 2pm-3pm tu choices dah kurangla sebab start bukak since morning, but the good thing is some items diorang lelong trus nak bg abes =)


Ok, mari tgk apa yang ada dijual - ni mana yang I sempat snap la yeh, ada byk lagi, malu la pulak kat org asyik ambik gambar je, hehe

 
Ha, kacang bendi, daun sup, daun bawang smua ada jugak
 
Geram kan tgk baby carrot tu, tinggi khasiat ni for health benefits, bila dah byk sgt beli, jenuh pulak nak abeskan, makanya terpaksa la buat juice! Later kena nak belajar buat carrot cake =)

Winter Warming

 
Alhamdulillah, selesai membuat jamuan kecil-kecilan di 'rumah' yang limited size itu. Ala kadar saja, intention adalah utk bg 'road tour' ke Isambard Studio Flat and ramah mesra before kembali ke kelas and bermula new term.
 
Menu minum petang yang simple seperti bihun goreng, fusilli with tuna, masalla grill chicken wings, pavlova (again, seronok plak buat benda alah ni, hikss), sedikit lemon cupcake (try buat sendiri guna instant flour, xdpt byk hasilnya), agar-agar buah peach and bubur jagung.
 
Malam pula unexpected (ingat nk buat ptg je), tp alang2 extend je la, so sempat buat nasi goreng, fusilli with tuna (yes, again, stock ni mmg byk kt cabinet, hehe), berlaukkan sedikit grill chicken (tak sempat nak defrost more chickens) and egg waffles.
*sedikit gambar yg sempat disnap*
 
 
 

 
Terima kasih yang sudi hadir untuk mkn2 yang tak seberapa ini, semoga diberkatiNYA

Days Long Ago
Should old acquaintances be forgotten
And never be remembered?
Should old acquaintances be forgotten
and days long ago.

Chorus:
For days long ago, my dear,
For days long ago
We'll drink a cup of kindness yet
For days long ago!

And surely you'll have your pint tankard
And surely I'll have mine.
And we'll drink a cup of kindness yet
For days long ago.

Chorus

We two have run about the hills
And pulled the daisies fine
But we've wandered many a weary mile
Since the days long ago.

Chorus

We two have paddled in the stream
From morning sun till dinner-time
But the broad seas have roared between us
Since the days long ago.

Chorus

And here's my hand, my trusty friend,
And give me your hand too,
And we will take an excellent good-will drink
For the days of long ago.
