3 days update

Another long gap between updates, hehehe….

Takpelah, at least I update jugak walaupun cuma beberapa hari sekali kan.

And what are the excuses this time?

Seperti biasalah, busy and malas, hahahaha.

So, what’s been happening the past few days in this household?

Nothing much, same old same old, tu yang tak tau nak update pasal apa.

On Friday, we had a few guests for dinner so I made this.

Friday nite memang selalunya pizza nite unless I’m so sick and tired of making bread or pizza that week, hikhikhikhik…..

I made all of the above pizzas with garlic bread and salad on the side.

And choc victoria sandwich cake for dessert.

Then the Saturday was spent mostly doing things involving the garden.

Bought some more flowers for the garden Smile.

I’ve been wanting these flowers for so long when I saw it in gardens around our house ni.

Tapi tak tau nama dia and nak ketuk pintu rumah orang saje2 nak tanya nama bunga, tak berani pulak nya, hahahaha.

So, when I saw them at Bunnings, terus lah i sambar.

They are Western Australians wildflowers called Everlastings.

But it’s a bit too late dah for them to grow, cuma lebih kurang 3 bulan aje lagi before they stop producing.

Next year boleh tanam awal sikit since dah tau nama dia.

My little garden helper. She dug the trench and planted the Everlastings.

The Other Half pulak mowed the lawns, fertilised the plants and lawn and readied the vege patch for planting.

Alhamdulillah, malam ni hujan so hopefully all the fertilisers will get to work soon.

And also on that Saturday night, I tried making home made fondant, first time ever!

I’ve never ‘played’ with fondant before so I have no idea jadi ke tak.

Sambil uli, sambil I bayangkan the consequences of having diabetes!

Banyak giler pakai gula!

Hahahaha….

But the girls and Miss 14’s friend certainly had fun playing with the fondant today.

Ok lah kan for first timers without any specific tools.

I had to limit their cupcake intakes tadi or else memang tak kan dapat tidur lah due to sugar rush!
