A pleasant weekend.......

Most of the time, i cooked one or two dishes to go with rice for dinner. My boys are a good eater and they love different type of food but poor hubby prefer rice for dinner as he usually eats light for lunch. Once in a while when dear hubby said he wont take dinner at home, i would cook something else. So last Friday when hubby smsed me at noon saying he would be home quite late, i asked the boys what they wanted for dinner......Unanimously they wanted my version of Bolognese sauce with spaghetti. Hubby also asked if i had any delivery on Saturday, my replied to him was no but i had one for Sunday. So we planned to go to Malacca on Saturday just jalan-jalan cari makan trip.


The spaghetti was very good i might say...we ended up finishing the sauce with lightly toasted bread as one packet of pasta finished in a jiffy.Anyone want the recipe, let me know......

Here, i introduce you to our latest addition in the family, Blackie@Hitam, i took him from the market near my house on Baby's birthday. Didnt expect that he would turn out to be a very manja cat. He sleeps with me at night, in between hubby and i.....now we feel like we are having a new baby.....he would wake up at night and licked my nose or my chin then go back to sleep ....... and hes one skinny cat ha ha ha....
Sedapnyer tidooooo.....
Friday night while watching TV, i prepared the shell for my fruit tartlets for Sunday morning delivery.

Saturday morning, while having breakfast at one of mamak's restaurant in Sban 2, i casually asked hubby about a wedding in Rembau on that Saturday afternoon which his mum asked me a few days before. He didnt tell me anything about it and i thought the wedding was not in the 'must attend' list he he.... Aaaa.... he actually totally forgotten about the invitation and he almost jumped on his chair when asked. " Sh*t.....i promised the guy to go....so how the trip to Malacca?" he asked me, told him to postpone the trip as i felt it was not nice not to fulfill once promised.... Then almost noon we were on the way to Rembau to the wedding, with his mum and our 2nd boy. It was a nice drive, and on the way i saw an antique shop beside the road and made a comment to hubby to stop by that place on the way home later. He just nodded his head.

As we were looking for a parking space upon arriving at the wedding, we saw the kompang and caklempong people was walking back with the goodie bags in hand....wahhh i said to myself the bersanding was early as the time was yet 1 pm. When we did our salam and all i asked the bride's mum about that and she said they decided to do the bersanding early due to the current rainy spell...then we headed to the buffet spreads....it was a typical wedding dishes but the taste was very good. While eating we were entertained by a band which i felt the best wedding band i heard so far. All the 4 singers sang very well and definitely better than any of the AF winners he he.......Though i was very much love to just lepak and enjoy the music, i asked hubby to go home as i had some baking to do for orders on Sunday morning. We did stop at the antique shop and i saw a few things that i like but i felt the pricing was a bit steep, i didnt get anything. We went into the car and hardly after 100 meters driving hubby realised that his mum was not with us ha ha ha....... she was left behind at the shop. Both of us thought she was behind us when we went to the car he he.....hubby made a U-turn and there she was standing and smiling widely to us.... we were laughing about it all the way home ha ha ha ..........

That night after maghrib, i baked the cakes. After the cakes were out from the oven, the boys and i went to Senawang for McDonald supper, it was almost 10.00 pm. Dear hubby was having teh tarik session with his friends in town. At 3.00 am i started decorating the cakes and the cupcakes. Finished just after 6.00 then took a breather by watching TV, at 8.00 i assembled the fruit tartlets and we left for Mambau to deliver the goodies at 9.30 am, the agreed time to hand over the goodies was 10.00. We made it to the place in good time to my suprised as i didnt know that Mambau was not far from Seremban. The customers' sisters collected the cakes and tartlets, as she was doing her make up. These were all she ordered for her big day...the cake and tartlets for the makan-makan and cupcakes for the engagement gift . She requested my earlier design for the hantaran, the combination of purple and pink....Enjoy the pictures




After settling the boys lunch, we decided to go to a tyre shops as my old car tyres needed to be replaced. We went to Senawang and had to wait for awhile as there were many cars ahead of us. We just waited as hubby said he had to go outstation soon and he afraid that the car might gave me trouble due to the tyres. Yes, i can drive his car but dont quite fancy driving his in Seremban town.... or just to go the market behind my house..... While waiting, he received a call. The call was from his relatives who happened to study in the same Uni in the States....ha ha ha talking about a small world kan?? and during that time they didnt know they were related until after hubby and i were married and we went to Sg Besar for his granduncle's funeral. The guy was with his mother in law who happened to be cousin to my mother in law.....complicated?? in short the guy and my hubby is second cousin.... they wanted to visit my in laws.

Then i dropped hubby at his mum's place with the guests, i went home to assemble the balance of fruit tartlets balance from the order earlier. Of course the real reason was to check on my 3 rascals at home ....... Went back to MIL's place with one big tupperware of tartlets and i just listened to their conversation which half of it i didnt understand. They were talking in this peculiar accent. When they left for KL, hubby and i went home and spend the rest of the day with the boys.....its tiring but fun though......
