Blog readers and singing

Before I start bercerita tentang what we did today, I want to thank Ben sebab promote blog I di blog dia malam tadi. And because of that, tetiba ramai new readers masuk blog I ni and tetiba aje my followers meningkat naik Open-mouthed smile.

Selalunya yang baca blog I ni gang yang suka masak2 and readers with kids aje sebab my blog mostly cerita about our dinners aje (and then di selang seli kan dengan cerita about the 4 of us and the garden Smile). But lately I noticed yang makin ramai budak2 muda remaja yang masuk blog I and follow blog I, which is a bit mengherankan jugak lah to me (not that I mind Smile).

I asked The Other Half, apa agaknya yang menarik minat diaorang to read my blog ye?

He answered, “maybe sebab nak tengok body baru I yang cun and hensem ni.

Yo lah tu Jang, hahahahaha…..

So, I nak tanya all the young people out there just to satisfy my curiosity (ok lah, under 25 y.o. tu kira young lah for me yang dah nak masuk 41 ni, hahahaha)…

What attracts you to read this blog?

Back to our cerita today, Miss 7 participated in a sing fest today. It’s basically a group of schools singing their own songs in front of audience. But cuma sing for fun, not a contest. So, The Other Half and I pun pergi lah tengok them singing.

Waiting outside the hall to go in. That’s her music teacher who’s really good.

IMG_0334

She’s in the junior choir which basically comprises students fr Yr 1 to Yr 3. Tak ramai in her choir group ni. But the other schools semua have loads of students in their choir groups.

IMG_0336

Menyanyi pun siap ada action kan Smile.

Actually, masa budak2 tu menyanyi, a lot of the parents pun ikut nyanyi sama senyap2 sebab we all pun dah hafal most of the songs. Mana tak nya, hari2 dengar diaorang practice kat rumah, hehehehe.

Nanti lah, one day I will put up a video of her singing bagi you all pulak sakit telinga, hikhikhik…. Winking smile.

For dinner tonite, I made chicken burritos from ready made pack. Tinggal provide the chicken and the sayur2an aje.

It was a bit too spicy for The Little Misses. Macam I aje masa kecik2 dulu, sikit pun tak tahan pedas, hahaha.

Abdullah,
Kat sini that chicken wrap at kfc is called twister tak silap.
It's good you are trying to improve your english because it's good to know different languages :-).

Shiera,
Hari2 I kena masak kan so might as well letak kat blog ye tak :-). Sometimes lama jugak I duduk tercangak depan PC nak reka jalan cerita to make it interesting to be read :-)

blu4sky,
My hubby tu skrg memang sgt2 perasan macho aje, hahaha

Irma,
I pun slalu gelak sorang2 dpn pc, hahaha.... Tapi kan, nak pilih tajuk yg sesuai tu kdg2 amatlah membuntukan kepala sungguh! :-)

Shinobee,

aIDA sULAIMAN said...

hidup di rantau orang yg mempunyai adat & budaya yg berbeza membuatkan ramai orang ingin mengetahuinya. memperkenalkan makanan melayu, cabaran dlm membesarkan & mendidik anak2 dengan adat dan cara hidup orang Melayu yg berpaksikan ajaran Islam. perkara itu yg paling saya kagum..

eira eixora said...

T said...

I am not under 24, tapi selalu perasan that I am 21.

I like your blog because it's very captivating. Those foods, and Miss 7 says the darnest thing.hehehe. Also, since I am married to non-Malaysian too, your blogs make me feel like I am not alone, and that we are just as normal as other couples.

Aidah said...

Banyaaaaaknya komen you! Meriaaaah! I ni dah tuo, dekat sebaya dgn you, segan pulak nak comment tapi memang I selalu baca your blog, siap entry lelama pun I korek gak!Thank you Min for inspiring me especially when it comes to cooking.

matbond2 said...

Well....

I am a veteran (47 tu), and I am a guy. And I love to read your blog. Tiap pagi kalau tak read your blog, mesti gelisah punya sebab nak tau apa kisahnya hari semalam.

Your blog kinda remind me of my wife... dia pun rajin cam tu jugak lah. And also rajin melayan anak jugak lah. Cuma dia bekerja. So tak boleh la buat macam you buat 100%.

But what you did, the way you interact with your family, that is what most people should do. It promotes closeness and openness between family and binding them together. My mom is one... and she handle 9 kids (and at 47, I am the youngest(. And till today, all 9 are so close. And this also has been insaminated into the next generation's mind. We are one big happt family.

But bila I pencen nanti... I la yang akan jadi house husband dulu sebab bini muda lagi and anak baru umur 3 tahun. Then its time for me to do the masak masak for my wife pulak... he he.

Charlotte Arphenee said...

Hello. I'm a 16 y/o reader of yours from Kuala Lumpur. Actually, what I like about your blog is the fact that you keep it simple and funny! It was my mum who showed me your blog last year and she has been reading your blog for years :') And I think, it's cause you're humble and keep it real : the fact that like about your blog! And I do read your blog everyday. Salam :-)

lemongrass said...

Elina,
Banyak kali juga ye you bukak my blog ni :-). Hati I berjiwa muda tp muka makin ada wrinkles, tu yg susah, hehehe.

Amy,
Blog Ben tu memang ramai pembaca muda belia kan! Tu yg I rasa ramai readers I yg muda2 dtg dari situ and dari blog Cik Mat Gebu.

Nor Syafiqah,
Sometimes I rasa alangkah bagusnya masa I muda2 dulu ada blog jugak so lagi lah cepat I pandai masak and surenya by now dah terer sgt2, hehehe.

Dora,
I ni orang Jawa yg dah global, segala benda makan ;-). Tapi tempe and tahu masih tetap di hati tak boleh dipisahkan, hahaha.

Ayin,
I pun ada some blogs yg memang akan bukak hari2, mostly utk tengok their food jugak sambil cari2 ilham nak masak :-)

Aida,
Kadang2 memang susah jugak hidup kat rantau and nak kekal kan budaya. Lagi lah bila 2 budaya yg berbeza and we all cuba serapkan dua2 budaya, ambik yg baik, buang yg tak berapa baik :-)

Eira,
I slalunya akan tak update once every 2 weeks ke mcm tu, saje nak bagi jari jemari rehat, hehehe.

Nora,
Gambar aje yg membuatkan all the food nampak sedap maybe ;-)

Cik Siti Wan Kuncup,
2 years tu lama jugak lah kan :-). Most times I ulang cerita sama again kan :-). I rasa sbb ada 2 cultures in this house, tu yg bnyk sikit cerita kelakar ;-)

Cik Aien,
1 day to habiskan 3 years worth of entry? Wah, cayalah! hehehe

Maz,
clap5X sbb dah beranikan diri n berjaya masak paru goreng sambal! Lepas ni kalau you buat open house, boleh lah jamu paru goreng kan, hehehe.
I punya paru supply dah habis but I kena berani kan diri dulu nak masak paru ni :-). Kena berguru fr you lah mcm ni eh :-D.

lemongrass said...

Aunty P,
thanks :-).

Shiela,
I peramah dlm blog aje, kat luar pemalu habis, hehehe

Alang,
Alhamdulillah sihat. I thought orang2 muda cuma baca blog yg sama wavelength aje dgn diaorang, tu yg heran, hehee

CB,
Hubby I tu patut buat blog sendiri kan, baru lah boleh dia nak perasan lebih2 kat situ, hahaha.

Crazy Heart,
siannya you makan biskut kering aje. I pun dulu slalu gak makan biskut kering and milo or maggi bila dah malas and too tired to cook bila balik fr lectures :-). Kenangan indah masa study kan :-D

Hunny,
I am not that good a SAHM sbb I have moments bila rumah tak berkemas and bercuci, food pun masak yg so sempoi and baju penuh menggunung tak iron and tak basuh and tak lipat, hahaha.

Jess,
I pun bila dah ada anak and dah tau mcm mana mind boggling nya jaga anak and jaga suami and jaga rumah, baru lah tau perasaan Mak I dulu2 :-)

Izati,
thanks sbb masih sudi baca my blog after many years :-).

T,
I pulak always feel 30, hahaha. But it is nice kan to know that they are others in the same situation as us kan :-).

Aidah,
you are welcome. I pun suka masuk blogs yg inspire me to cook, to treat my family right, to muhasabah diri :-)

lemongrass said...

Sooyaree,
My daughter tu memang sentiasa over banding dgn orang lain, hahaha.

Lady Morgana,
thanks ye sbb promote my blog to yr friends, makin ramai lah yg tau pasal my blog ni ye :-).
Thank goodness for digital camera kan sbb senang I nak ambik gambar all my dinners :-)

Kak Yan,
semua nak jadi bakal menantu ye, hahaha.

Abang Mat Bond,
thank you for the kind words. I tabik betul kat orang dulu2 yg ada anak ramai but still managed to instil family values and look after their kids so well.
I ni ada anak dua pun akdang2 pening tak tau macam mana nak handle their moods and attitudes.
Luckily my husband has the same values as me so senang lah sikit hidup :-).
I think you will enjoy your new life as a SAHD and to watch your young one grows up :-). Sure wife you jeles nanti sbb you get to spend time at home, hehehe.

Charlotte,
Salam. Ramai jugak ye yg dah khatam baca blog I ni. I jugak yg tak terkhatam2, hahaha.
I'm glad my writings boleh make you smile occasionally and reduces your stress :-).

Lia,
Best weh kdg2 still so young, single and available ni kan, so many things you can do :-).
I'm glad I buat you teruja untuk start masak and baking :-)

Mak Wardah,
wah, so detailed in giving the reasons which is what I like. I guess it is a bit like reading an intriguing story book kan but with photos to boot :-).

lemongrass said...

Finie,
We definitely cannot live without rice esp my hubby yg mesti makan nasi n kari seminggu sekali at least :-D.

Zila,
Lah ye ke, I thought Nana bagi ke Syam that CK tu :-)

Miss Jue,
Lama lah tu 2 tahun baca blog :-).
Psst... we all pun kdg2 heran macam mana boleh dpt daughters yg comel, hahaha ;-)

Susubasistobery,
I nak show to people yg tak perlu kena ikat perut makan rebus2 takde nasi utk kurus. As long as hati kena cekal utk exercise n kawal portion makan, lama2 kurus jugak, hehehe.

Syaz,
Salam. For me yg dah nak masuk 41, 23 is so so young, hehehe.
My kids think I am always strict and garang and only occasionally aje fun. But when we have fun, we definitely have fun.
I guess when the kids grow up among Mat Salehs and Dad pun Mat Saleh, cara didik pun tak boleh lah pure melayu kan, hehehe.
That award is definitely not for me, hahaha.

Adiby,
I'm glad you found my calories explanation helpful. I am trying to educate people (yang nak tau) about the right way to lose weight. Still boleh makan all the nice food but in moderation lah kan :-)

Bambam,
Macam duduk sebelah rumah I and dah kenal lama aje ye :-D.

Mummy Adam,
thank you for still wanting to read my blog after this :-)

Kak Zai,
Memang betul kan. I guess kita sentiasa tertarik dgn benda yg lain dr kita kan :-)

Asyraf,
I think you boleh panggil I Auntie lah sbb you pun cuma 5 years aje beza dgn my eldest daughter :-).
You minat tengok muka dia ye???? hehehehe ;-).
My daughters pulak kdg2 bosan dgn apa yg I masak sbb for them benda yg sama aje.

Al,
hahahahha...I baru aje teased Asyraf about it. Kalau blog I ni still ada lagi in 4 years time, I rasa memang ramai yg masuk sbb nak tengok their faces :-)

Khairunisa,
Salam. Thanks sbb suka baca my blog even though I write mostly about things that are not the in thing for 16 year olds kan.
But I guess food is universal :-).

Anonymous said...

Herm, kita suka baca akak punya blog sebab bila tengok ada org kahwin dengan org yg bukan sama kaum je, msti dieorang cakap susah lah, nanti berpisah sbb tak sama thought la ape la. Bila jumpa blog akak, rasa sronok sbb ada jugak bukti yang org lain ckp tu tk betul ;) hehehe

lemongrass said...

Farhan,
I rasa skrg ni kahwin sesama kaum sendiri pun banyak end up in divorce kan. I guess kita cuma boleh berdoa and buat yg terbaik so our marriage berkekalan :-).

TTM,
I pun selalu gak perasan muda ni, muahahaha. Tapi tak lah kot sampai 23, itu dah melampau bebeno rasanya, hikhikhik...
Rajinnya kamu bukak page2 yg belakang, mesti masa Amjah tgh tidur or nenen tu kan, hehehe

Syahira,
Salam. I belaja masak by tengok tv cooking shows, baca buku recipe, trial n error and now ni on the net. But I guess kalau kita minat masak, tak susah nak cepat pandai :-).
Sometimes I do miss the working environment, surrounded by adults all the time instead of kids aje, hehehe....

MamaRocks,
Nanti kalau I buat contest utk write essay, bolehlah you join, hehehe ;-).
I sebenarnya tak rajin memasak tp sbb terpaksa memasak sbb mahal giler nak makan kat luar hari2, tu yg lama2 jadi rajin sendiri, hehehe

Anim,
Apa yg you angankan bila masuk sini ye? hehehe :-)

Mun,
Thanks sbb excited nak tau apa yg I akan masak everyday. I wish my eldest excited mcm you nak tau apa yg I nak masak for dinner hari2. She's not into food, so tu yg tak kisah apa yg I nak masak.

aku la ros,
Kalau ada masa, boleh jumpa tapi slalu nya bila I balik Ms'ia, memang busy mengalahkan menteri, hahaha.

Kak Ida,
Salam.Anak I yg second tu memang sedap nak dipeluk2 sbb dia chubby sgt2 :-). I pun kdg2 wish diaorang still kecik lagi :-).

Hi kak LG,

I started reading ur blog about 2 years ago when I read one of my ex boss' blog entry yang linked her dinner recipe to ur blog.

From that moment, terus addicted.

Loved the way u write. Lawak. N loved ur entry about the food. Made me berkobar2 nak masak utk family jg (tp blm kesampaian ;p).

N I like reading about ur family outing. Esp the road trip u did with ur family.

N I like reading the little misses growing up. Kiranya nak ambil tips utk besarkan anak la ni.. Hehe

Ok kak LG, if u'r thinking of maybe moneytizing ur blog, try Nuffnang :D. Mana la tau kan, sambil2 blogging dptt generate side income .. Hehhe..

K kak LG,
Selamat maju jaya haha

Cheers,
Vien

salam kak LG! :)

I'm 21. I do really2 love to read your blog because

1) FOOD!! - no doubt. haha

2) Parenting
- How u adapt yourself to be a good friend of your adorable little misses instead of being just ordinary mom.

- Since my mom had passed away few years back, as the eldest sister I am truly2 adore your parenting style because to raise a children nowadays is very2 challenging.

3) 2 benua
- Getting to know how's life in other country + mix culture is very2 interesting and u are one of the best and reliable source for us to learn bout that.

p/s : Keep on blogging Kak LG.
- Hope one day, the little misses dapat hero junior pulak to take of them. hihi.

Wish u and ur family all the happiness and blessing from Allah. :)
