Menerima tempahan Pavlova lagi!  Huh! Errkkk! tempahan? urrmmmm...... No...Noo...Nooo...
Bukan tempahan, cuma "tolong buatkan" sebab kami blum sampai tahap tokei kedai untuk menerima tempahan sedemikian rupa...Eeeuueeewwww! hahaa

My bestie nak buat tea party, so ada request tingin nak makan Pavlova. Maka sesudah subuh kami dok pukul meringue sebab nak buat 2 pavlovas! Actually I baked 3 Pavlovas sebab 1 for me...hahaaa


One of the Pavlova, siap sedia untuk dibakar.



A thick layer of fresh cream on top....


Pastu drizzle some homemade strawberry puree/sauce supaya rasanya lebih gantangg...hahaa



and finally a thick layer of fresh fruits...hohooo


A tempting dessert! and one said,  Pavlova - A Queen of desserts :)

Dah siap deco fabulous macam nie, kena cepat-cepat makan sebab Pavlova sebaiknya dinikmati dalam tempoh 2 jam. Or else, nanti meringue jadi soggy dan tak shedap sebab dan letak cream. Tapi laporan yang kami terima, less than 10 minutes, Pavlova dah abes...heheee
.....Paling tak tahan, depa ramai pakat dok tanya kalo nak tempah pavlova macam nie, baper harganya?  Errrkkk!


Mungkin bleh dipertimbangkan untuk menerima tempahan, cuma Pavlova nie leceh sket walopun senang nak buat. Sebab very sensitive and mudah crack. Kalo short distance no probs. Kalo yang jauh atau nak dibawa ke suatu tempat atau untuk suatu acara seelokknya beberapa minit sblum acara berlangsung baru diletakkan cream dan buah-buahan.  Tapi takkan lar tokei kedai nak bagi meringue kosong macam tu kat customer pastu suruh deco sendiri....tak kelassss lar...Ahaks!

Cer kodek-kodekk resepi kat sini kalo cikjah berminat yerr :)

Cucur udang kuah kacang Kedah style.
Kesedapan tiada tandingan. Kalo di setengah tempat cucur udang cecah sos cili, tapi kat Kedah lebih sinonim dengan cecah kuah kacang. Antara juara carta hidangan ketika bulan puasa.


Sebagai minum petang kat rumah....owhh! memang tiada tandingan. Kalah cucoq badak...hahaaa


Entah mengapa orang Kedah nie suker sangat dengan warna kuning. Bihun sup kuning, cucoq udang kuning, bubur kanji kuning...bla..blaa..blaaa....Yey! hidup ijau kunin! hahaa

Yeyyy!!! Senangnya dalam hati bila sumer kerja rumah dah siap! ♫♫♪♪♫Lalalaaaa♫♪♫♫
Rumah dah bersih dan wangi! So bleh lar lepak-lepak kat garden sambil menghabiskan buku citer yang lama ditinggalkan...Ahaks!


A cup of tea, a few slices of hummingbird cake, a story book and a perfect jazz music as a background.... owwh! Terasa relax and tenang skali spending time at home sweet home. The best was, I managed to finish the second book of the Nora Robert's Dream Trilogy series. Perhaps I could start the final book  soon  :)


Skali-skala kelihatan beberapa ekor burung kelicap bewarna-warna dok main aci ligan di celah dahan pohon Calathea Lutea. Alarr, comeinya.....


I am so happy and proud of myself sebab suka dan rajin berkebun...Aiceh! Tapi serious cikjah, hati rasa puas dan teruja bila garden yang selama ini dijaga berada dalam keadaan  baik skali walopun cuma sekangkang kucin...heheee

It was a treat for her. Mingling around  with harness while I was gardening in the garden.
Jangan percaya kepada adorable face of this tortie cat.....kalo tak pasang harness, silap-silap blum pun sempat kami blink biji mata, Pooff! dah hilang dari pandangan! Aiyayaaaa  O.O
I really can't afford that...uh!uh!!

Tapi cer ler cikjah tengok, orang suruh garden, dia shibook dok pasang mata tengok kat luar garden. Tergedix-gedixx nak lari kluar lar tu....heheee


Firstly, site inspection dulu. Sniffing around walopun that is her own territory. Banyak stray cats yang slalu menyinggah kat garden kami. Makan angin agaknya...kadang-kadang ada yang buang angin skali....grrrrr


Sniff..snifff...urmmmm apa bau nie?


Makin kuat lar bau nie....iskkk....


Ooooo...bau bunga....urmmm...wangi dan santek! heheee


Tiba-tiba, ada burung melintas....Meeowwwww!!! terus ilang fokus. Time nie kalo kami panggil kucing hitam comel nie, terketar-ketarr satu badan ia menjawab "mmmeeoowwwwwwrrrr" sebab teruja nampak burung di awangan.

Bulu kucing hitam yang sihat dan berkilat. Hasil dari makanan maheii Royal Canine :)


Kepenatan. Take five di celahan rendangan Song of India.


Kucing eksen! Takmo duduk kat lantai. Nak duduk atas kerusi...Takmo lepak kat tengah panas, nak lepak kat tempat teduh...iskkk...

I had delicious Thai dinner at Kinnaree Restaurant located at Jaya One, PJ recently. An authentic Thai dishes that screwed up my daily caloric intake...hahaaa

A decent setting restaurant nestled quietly in a happening dining oasis of Palm Square at Jaya One.
It has quite interesting menu choices but not quite perfect though as I found the gravy for Beef Green Curry is too thick and tasteless. It was served on a flat dish plate instead of in a bowl as commonly served for any gravy dishes.  The deep fried boneless Grouper with sweet and spicy tamarind sauce is awesome. The fish was fresh, juicy and sweet but the sauce was super too little. Until at certain stage, I felt like eating ordinary fried fish without any sauce. Luckily the fish itself was good...uh!
A little bit more sauce won't hurt the fish, I guess...or maybe they should remove the word 'sauce' from the dish name.
Other than that all the dishes I carefully chose were great and delicious! especially...


... Mieng Kham ; the Thai appetizer and


a refreshing Pamelo Salad. Yumm yummm!!

Although, I personally think that the waiters and waitresses are quite rough as their action delivering orders and clear up the table attested my opinion. The waitress just took the empty plates from my table without asking or at least give a sign or she could just simply say "may I". The waiter delivered food to my table by just placed it at the edge of my table and walked away...errkk!

The waitress that took orders from several other patrons and myself talked / explaining / recommending dishes too loud like she was talking in a huge hall...uh! She didn't even repeat my order and missed out one of the dish....Erkkk! They also had loud friendly co-workers conversation among them at the kitchen window and beverage area. Hence, it makes me felt like dining at cheap Kopitiam restaurant  x___x whereas paying bill like dining at Shangri-La Hotel.....LMAO
Well, sorry to say but all these simple and basic manners and attitudes are important and a must especially if you are dealing in service industries  ^_____^

It was so unbelievable when the waitress hold my appetizer plate and asked to clear it from my table although she saw with her barely eyes that I only ate 30% of it!  O.O  Uh!uh!....of course I said 'No, thank you, just leave it there'.
I intentionally stopped eating the appetizer because all the main dishes [except the missed out salad] were already on my table and I don't want them to be left cold.
Come on! It doesn't mean when main course already on the table you are forbidden from taking the appetizer or entree...


But I must give credit to one of the waitress that really paid attention and asked me whether to pack
the unfinished dishes :)


Even though I was quite full but making room for the delectable Thai desserts was not a problem at all! hahaaaa
I had this delicious warm pandan sticky rice with fresh and sweet manggo and ice-cream. WeeEeeee.... and also a delicious Red Ruby.
It was a good experience dining at Kinnaree. Well, will I be back? urrmm..........let me think okay...

Owh ya!, I am not sure whether there is a public parking with common parking rate at Jaya One. I circled the entire block twice and coudn't find any. Left with no choice, I had to use the valet parking; RM8/entry  which the attendant could not even write my car number correctly on the parking card..huh!

Plumbago sedang 'memercik' riang di taman kecil kami. Yeyyy!!!
Pokok yang mempunyai bunga berwarna Pale sky blue ini sebenarnya sangat mudah dijaga dan memiliki kitaran bunga yang kerap. Sukakan cahaya matahari namun bunganya sedikit 'fragile' jika disimbahi air hujan yang banyak dan kerap.


Plumbago berkongsi pasu dengan sejenis lagi pokok bunga biru....namanya kami tak taww...uh!uh!
Plumbago 2 minggu yang lalu. Belum berbunga. Namun kelihatan putik bunga sudah mula keluar.


Cantik skali!  jika betul cuaca, cukup makan dan minum-nya, plumbago akan mengeluarkan bunga yang sangat banyak sehinggakan sukar untuk melihat daunan hijau. Tak jemu mata memandang,  hati terasa riang, gembira bukan kepalang. Aiceh! Tapi ini baru permulaan.


Cuma kami berharap, hujan tidak turun terlalu kerap dan lebat. Sayang bila melihat bunga yang baru berkembang jatuh ke tanah kerana pukulan angin dan air hujan yang berat T__T
Kami rasa macam nak cucuk payung di dalam pasu  tu supaya bunga tak kena air hujan...hahaa

I don't remember a witch ...but there was a black adorable cat who sat down beside me and told me that "I'm a cat who has strong legs, beautiful heart and the ♥ of thrills, I like to climb things - including hills. I ♥ pink and I ♥ cat and again the black cat told me that I'm a lovely friendly Pienkcat"
