Mummy's Bday Picture

Ryan was so excited when he saw his daddy took out the cake from the fridge...he faster ran to the living room...standby want to eat the cake.But then....mummy told him that has to snap some picture before we ate the cake. So my lovely hubby snapped some pictures for me(with Ryan).Too bad hubby did not snap our family picture..I myself also forget about it. I guess we couldn't wait to eat the b'day cake.
After blowing the candle...cut the cake . We all enjoyed eating the cake. The balance of the cake was sapu habis by 3 of us on the next day.(Big Appetite)!!

Happy Birthday To Me ***

Today 27 Aug 2009 is my Birthday. Don't ask me about my age. That is a secret. What I can reveal out is that I am in the midst of 30's (Already in Gear no.3). Time flies so fast...I still remember well the time I graduated from my high school,went to Spore for further studies, worked there for a couple of years,met my hubby in Spore,dating there and at last we decided to settle down back to Sibu. It was still fresh in my mind and now I am reaching age of 30+.I am now a mummy of 1 little boy.No longer enjoy my single life there.

Any special celebration for my birthday? Just a simple dinner at home and after dinner have a cut cake session.Hubby bought me a Tiramisu Cake.Ryan sang a Birthday Song for Mummy & also give me a kiss. I am so happy...tis is my 2nd time celebrating my Birthday with Ryan.

Will update some pictures in my next post.

*** Happy Birthday to Me ***

Countdown.....For my Birthday

Another 4 days...my age will add for another 1 year....so old:( Age is catching up and life is still go on.
Any celebration ??? Actually we are planning for dinner buffet on Sat night(22Aug - early celebration) at RH Hotel(only have buffet on every Sat)...at last cancel it off. Due to H1N1...better to stay indoor.

Hubby suggested to go for Pizza + KFC...tapao back home eat on 27 August. Not a bad idea since Ryan has been craving for both food.Then will get a birthday cake too (I am a cake lover). Any suprise pressie from hubby? Really don't know.Till now he never give me any hints yet.

5 4 3 2 1 .... Yeah......My Big Day !!

Food...Food...Food

I believe everybody try this Kue Lapis Beras before and that's one of my favo kueh.In Hokkien, it is also called Kow Teng Kueh.Ryan also love to eat this cake...so far, I can't find the best Kow Teng Kueh at Sibu yet...all are lack of coconut milk taste. So after googled for several recipes and make a comparison, I decided to follow this recipe.

It is my first time making Kue Lapis Beras, I reduced to half all the ingredient from this recipe. How about the outcome?? It taste not bad (according to hubby) and Ryan also love eating it too.
Probably will make this kueh again tomorrow if I am not lazy since we all love eating this kueh.


Last Sunday is a good weekend for me to try new recipe. I was craving for Chicken Rice (using rice cooker). I have tried cooking this chicken rice a few months back...and this is my 2nd attempt. Hope can get it taste better compared to my first attempt.
So Sunday morning, I went to nearby supermarket to get ready all the ingredients needed,I omitted the lap cheong and cut the chicken breast meat + mushroom into small pieces,so that easier for Ryan to eat.
Taste is yummy...and 3 of us finished up whole big bowl of chicken rice that Sunday night.


It is always a big headache for me while thinking of what to cook for Ryan today...,need to open up my fridge and checked out what ingredient available there before start cooking.I want to let Ryan try different type of food,prefer home-cooked food for him rather than tapao outside.Since there is some leftover rice in the fridge...let's try cook Fried Rice with tomatoes,sausages & leek for his lunch. I also added bit of tomatoes sauce into the fried rice...taste great and Ryan can't wait to try it out too..he kept walk to the kitchen while I was cooking the fried rice for him.

What Am I Busy Lately ???

I am just wondering what am I busy about lately apart from taking care Ryan full-time.Since MIL has started to work on her confinement job, I have to do my own cooking for dinner,been to wet market every weekend and of course have to do some house chores(mopping the living room + kitchen which is usually done by MIL when she is at home...Am I a bad Daughter-In-Law??).

I have not been touching my blog for the past few days since my last post on 10 Aug'09, the reason behind it is because I am addicted to SOMETHING. You might be wondering what's that??

-----------------
'The Little Nyonya' Drama is the movie that I am addicted lately. I just can't wait till 7pm and sit down in front of TV to catch up this Spore drama...Very Touching story about Nyonya & Baba Life in Spore & Malacca.I fall in love with this storyline..I managed to get this drama online via u-tube. Everynight I will spend about 1-2hrs to watch this drama online after dinner.I still have a few more episodes to go (now I am at episode-31)...before it comes to the end(total : 34 episodes).

Sorry for not dropping by all my friends' blog for the time being...Sure I will do it once I have finished with my drama.Not to forget to update my blog too.

For those who are interested to watch this drama, go to this link :

or you can catch up at Astro AEC 7pm Monday-Friday.

Suprise Gift

Another backdated post....It supposed to be updated last 3 days..but due to my tiredness after do housechores & taking care Ryan 24/7, I just don't have an energy to update my blog at night.I need a rest after the hectic day.

Tonight, I feel more fresh and would like to stay up late to update blog & surf net.

I received this suprise gift from Mummy Yugene 3 days ago..A nice Mickey T-Shirt for my boy Ryan. The colour is nice and that's on of Ryan's favo cartoon character.

* Ryan would like to say ' Thank you ' to Auntie Yugene being so sweet to send him this little gift.

Steamed Cream Cracker Cake & Konnyaku Jelly

I have been craving for some Jellys & Steamed Cream Cracker Cake since last weekend,but just lazy to make it. Today, I decided to make both of them since hubby can help me takecare of Ryan while I am busy at the kitchen. This morning I went to nearby supermarket to get ready all the ingredients needed.

After having our breakfast, I started preparing the ingredients for Steamed Cracker Cake. FYI, I only learnt how to make this cake after I married and move back to Sibu. My hubby was telling me that he wanted to eat Steamed Cream Cracker Cake few yrs back so I asked my MIL how to make it.Not so difficult and I gave a try, taste not bad and I like it too.Even my boy Ryan also like to eat this cake.He can simply finish 1 whole piece by himself.

------------------
Let's me share with you this recipe :

Ingredients:
1.Sliced some carrots ,1 big onion, 1 can of luncheon meat and some leeks into small pieces.
2.Seasoning : pepper,Maggi Seasoning (powder form).
3.1 pack of cream cracker biscuit (I used Tiger Brand - the best is to use Jacob brand).
4.1 tin of Evaporated milk(any brand will do).
5.8-10 eggs (depend on the size of the egg).

Method:
1.Grease the baking tray(square size) with some butter ( that is to prevent the cake stick to the tray - easier to wash the tray).
I need 9 pcs of cream cracker biscuit per layer.You can use smaller size of baking tray,but must be in Square Size.

2.Stir fried the carrots,leeks,big onions + luncheon meat.Add the seasoning too. The put aside.

3.Beat the eggs,add in Evaporated Milk and mixed them well.

4.Soak the cream cracker biscuits into the step (3).

5.Layer the cream cracker biscuits into the baking tray (3x3).

6.Put in the mixed carrot+leek+luncheon meat+onion (from step-2)in the next layer.

7.Repeat till all the ingredients are used up.It will looks like a layer cake.

8.Steam high heat for about half an hour/till cooked. Served with Chilly Sos.

-------------------

We are having this Steamed Cream Cracker Cake for lunch. Ryan also having 1 piece of steamed cake + 1 bowl of Beetroot porridge for his lunch.

After lunch, I started to make Konnyaku Jelly (orange flavour).I am using Konnyaku Jelly Premix Powder from Jelea. So far, I only can find 2 flavours avail in supermarket : Lychee & Orange.


Hubby and Ryan only like to eat 'Jelly',they dislike 'Agar-Agar'. Since weather is so hot lately.... eating Jelly after dinner is the best appetizer for tonight.


** Happy Sunday **
