Tuckshop lady aka Makcik kantin update

How was your weekend?

Ours was quiet as usual. Stayed at home the whole day semalam (didn’t drive anywhere Smile) but drove The Little Misses to Sunday School and back hari ni. The Other Half lagilah malas nak drive so I lah yang kena hantar them today. Takpe, dapat pahala kan hantar anak2 pergi mengaji ni, hehehe.

Pergi pukul 9.30, balik sampai rumah tadi dah pukul 2.15 so memang terus lepak lah saje2 hari ni Smile. Tu yg dinner pun lepak aje I masak tadi.

We had crumbed chicken breast strips (beli kat kedai), yiros bread (pun beli kat kedai) and mixed salad (carrot aje beli kat kedai. The capsicum, cucumber and lettuce kebun mari Smile).

Memang sempoi giler kan our dinner, hikhikhik….

Tu yang sempat put on my makcik kantin hat at the same time.

The Other Half’s sandwich sebelum di wrapped. He wanted vegetarian cheese sandwich so I made sandwich with mashed avocado, chargrilled capsicum, marinated artichoke, gherkin slices and grated parmesan.

And ini lunch box Miss 7. She wants dates and rockmelon for fruit/recess time and custard profiteroles for ‘dessert’ after her sandwich, hikhikhik. I made silverside sandwiches for both of them.

Hahaha...I beli artichoke hearts yg dah siap marinated in jars. Sampai sekarang, I still tak tau mcm mana nak masak raw artichoke tu. Gherkins are pickled small baby cucumbers :-).

Izah,
Kalau I kat M'sia, tapau nasi lemak jugak kot dari Bapak ke Mak ke anak2, hahaha.

DeLLa said...

MamaFaMi said...

Tengok all the lunchboxes, teringat ler mama suatu ketika dulu. Hari-hari kena buat breakboxes. Tapi kadang kalanya, bila balik rumah, tanya anak-anak,especially my son, mesti dia kata, ada yang bawak lari food dia. Cemana tuh! Especially when I tapau him donuts. Bila dia nampak je donuts dalam breakbox dia, dia cakap... oh oh, I am in trouble! Hahaha.... pengabisnya kan, asal nak bekalkan donuts, mama bekalkan banyak-banyak supaya semua dapat makan.. yang paling penting, my son dapat makan!

Annisa said...

Tengok N3 akak ni terus jd lapar..huhu

Mulan said...

Ayu said...

nurulafida said...

redbox said...

Jaja,
Kalau siapkan awal2, pastu masuk fridge, esok pagi tak payah bangun pagi2 sgt, hehehe.

Sally,
nanti I ambik gambar all our lunch bags ye. Kat rumah ni berlambak2 lunch bags, hehehe.

Relaxnhappy,
My kids hari ni rambang mata, tak tau mana satu nak makan sbb bnyk choices,hehehe.

Dinas,
Tu yg I masuk tidur awal so tak boleh nak surf blog orang tengok food so tak lah my tummy ni growling tgh2 malam, hikhikhik...

Gee,
Alhamdulillah :-). Memang best kdg2 menyediakan lunchbox ni tapi slalunya pening sbb tak tau nak sumbat apa :-)

Shiera,
I pun suka mkn sandwich occasionally esp yg banyak lettuce,hehehe

Bee,
Kat sekolah the girls ada recess and lunch, tu yg kena sediakan 2-3 jenis makanan :-).Slalunya I bagi fruit+ 1 snack utk recess, pastu sandwich/pies/sushi/leftovers + dessert/biscuits utk lunch. Tu yg meriah sungguh lunchbox kdg2 :-)

La petite cherie,
I got the recipe from here http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/13020/choux+pastry for the choux pastry and made my own custard. I added a bit of vanilla to the pastry though to hide the eggy smell a bit :-).

Della,
Selagi ada anak2 kat sekolah, selagi tu lah tugas Makcik Kantin I takkan selesai, hehehe

MamaFami,
Lah, siannya your son his donuts kena kidnapped, hehehe. Tu yg kadang2 I pun bekalkan food lebih sikit so they can share with their friends kan :-).

Annisa,
Kalau tengok N3 ni sebelum lunch, memang terus lapar, hikhikhik

Mulan,
you kena buatkan utk your hubby lah mcm tu or wait for the cucus nanti, hehehe

Ayu,
yg we all makan ni dah di jeruk dlm olive oil so texture dia mcm umbut keladi yg orang buat masak lemak tu sbb dah lembik. Rasa dia plain aje for me :-).

Nurulafida,
I pernah buat crumbed chicken breast. I guna recipe http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/1074/parmesan+crumbed+chicken. But yg I masak for dinner semalam, I beli kat kedai aje. Kalau you are in OZ, you cari brand Steggles in the frozen section, they have so many different varieties and they are halal :-).

Nurul,
Salam. Apa khabar? I should tayang lunchboxes yg I buat bila I malas, sure orang tak teringin, hehehe

zuwaidah said...

cek chun said...

lemongrass said...

Zuwaidah,
Sandwiches are so nice esp if the fillings sedap2 kan :-)

cek chun,
Makcik kantin kena rajin, kalau tak anak2 n laki kelaparan hari2, hahaha...

redbox said...

kabar x brapa baik sbb sentiasa around dgn research report...rasa cam high semacam especially buat writing.hahaha..serious sgt lapa tgk lunch box diorg.. sy time skolah rendah dulu pon mummy sy bawakkan lunch box tapi bukan lunch box la..sy rasa sesuai utk kita address as "recess box"..tapi recess box tu isinya nasik + lauk2 mcm lunch..LOL.x sempat la nak merasa puding2 or sandwich bagai..
