Slowly progressing….

I’m feeling a bit happy now because I can see some progress in the dress making :-). I spent nearly 2 hours last night duduk depan the sewing machine and the overlocker, terasa macam pekerja kat sweat shop aje pulak, hehehe. Baru 2 jam dah rasa macam best aje, orang lain spend 1 hari suntuk buat macam2 and produce gorgeous clothes tak kata apa2 pun kan, hahahahaha… Biasalah kan pekerja amateur ni i.e. me, dapat jahit 1 baju aje dah rasa bangga bagai ;-D.

And while I was sewing last night, sebab material dresses tu sama aje kan, I got a bit confused. I was like.. “eh, ini dress sape ye? how come I got 1 extra top and extra 2 pieces of the skirt bit? but I’ve matched everything else and I did get 6 dresses so how?????” I definitely tak boleh jadi tukang jahit lah kan sebab baru 6 dresses aje dah confused and got them all mixed up. Ye lah, selalunya I buat dresses for The Little Misses and the nieces guna kain lain2 so tu yang tak confused. Ni tetiba sama aje kain semua :-). Nasib baik tak kena buat 10 flower girl dresses kan, wakakaka…..(To Raina and Raisa, sebab kain tak cukup, I’ll make you dresses from another green kain ok! :-)). Tonite I kena sambung lagi buat the dresses and make sure the right top is sewed to the right skirt, the right skirt front is sewed to the right skirt back :-D. Lebih kurang macam lagu ni lah… “the foot bone connected to the leg bone. the leg bone connected to the knee bone. the knee bone connected to the thigh bone, it’s easy to connect those dry bones”. Have you heard of this song? It’s called Dem Bones which is a really cute song. Kenapa I merapu ni? Entah lah you, hehehehe. Tu yang The Other Half kadang2 tune out bila I cakap2 denagn dia sebab I selalu menyimpang jauh from the main topic of conversation :-D.

Anway, like every other tukang jahit, masak tetap diterus kan walaupun busy dengan jahitan…

Last nite, we had ‘beer-battered’ fish and chips. I bought this non-alcoholic malt drink which I guess is the equivalent to beer without the alcohol kot, hehehe. Rupa dia macam ni..

The Other Half loves to drink it on a hot day but for me, it’s definitely an acquired taste lah. I don’t like it. Macam makan budu and cencaluk jugak, sape yang tak biasa makan, memang tak boleh telan langsung lah :-).

And this is the fish and chips dinner. Sape nak recipe the batter, boleh tengok kat sini . Tapi kalau you all tak pakai malt drink ni pun takpe, pakai aje soda water.

Tengah berdiet pun makan fried stuff, hehehe…

And malam ni pulak, I made Samsun pizza which is the glemer name for folded turkish pizza, hehehe. But inti dalam tu is beef mince. Kalau nak recipe boleh tengok kat sini but I tak letak pine nuts or feta cheese and I guna beef mince aje and I tambah chili flakes untuk bagi pedas. And for The Little Misses I made stuffed crust pizza. Why I terajin malam ni? Tak tau lah apasal :-).

Sebelum masuk dlm oven. Psst..cantik tak my marble rolling pin itu? hehehe… but berat nak ma***s. Kalau jatuh atas kaki I, memang kena pakai cast lah lepas tu for a few months!

Ni, lepas kena bakar. I punya pizza memang selalu naik macam bukit!

And this is our folded turkish pizza..

and at the dinner table…

Makan pulak dengan salad sebab nak nampak kan healthy kan ;-). Jom makan buat orang2 yang terliur!
