My baking #6 : May&June'09

A successful chiffon cake :)

It look short because the recipe is for 16cm mould, my mould is 20cm. So far this is the most successful chiffon cake I baked.
(sorry for lousy photo, because of my outofdate camera)

Out of shape white bread.

80% successful pandan chiffon cake. Because there is some area is like kueh texture. But it did rise nicely.

Random

It quite a shock when I first heard that MJ was passed away. I remember I hear it from MYFM when on my way to work. The DJ is saying there was rumours saying that MJ was passed away. So when I reached office, I quickly get online and CNN breaking news already confirmed that.

There is one period of time during secondary school, I listened to MJ song. And still remember one of my classmate like to immitate MJ dance move. I wonder how he felt when he hear this news.

Now, everyday will have MJ stories on newspaper, it really feel sad when knowing that some of his family member is only concern about money.

I do think of how will the future of his children without him and who will arrange their needs. And it make me tears when I read this (paste from MSN TV News):

"I just wanted to say," Paris Jackson began weakly.
"Ever since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine," "And I just wanted to say I love him — so much."

Update

My SIL gave birth to her 2nd son on last Sunday. My MIL is doing confinement for her. So I 'FREE' for one month :P. That also mean I have to cook for one month, ya ya, I got MIL to cook for me.
I think all of you will know the pro and con to live with MIL.
June is an eventful month, starting, we received sad news that hb's paternal grandmother passed away. But hb and his sisters is not close to their grandmother, because my FIL passed away when my hb only 6 years old. Now already about 30 years, things happen between those years, I not sure what happen, anyway, I just know that they are not close.
But my MIL want hb to perform his duty as first grandson, so they went to their uncle house for the funeral. And my MIL get dizzy and headache after that and admitted to SGH, stay there for 2 days. Just after one week she discharged, my SIL gave birth. Hope my MIL is strong and healthy enough to do all the confinement works.
Edmund now is fine when I send him to the nursery in the morning time. He is willing to let the teacher carry him and even wave bye-bye to me.
Jasmine is the same, but is more difficult to educate her. I really don't know how to teach her, because she is treat me and hb words like go in left ear, immediately come out from right ear. And sometime I think what I'm saying is not go into her head, I have to repeat up teen time, like when you told her to go shower, brush her teeth, do her homework, etc, she will just sit there and ignore you. When we scolded her for done something wrong, she will say her sorry but which she doesn't take it into her heart, she just say it and forget it.
New job is really busy, still have backlog to do. Hehe, curi tulang (correct?) now. Okay, get back to works. tata.

GGRRRRRRRR

I heard something yesterday, and is too sensitive and personal I cannot blog about it. I can only rank like this %&*#@*&^*&^%#@*@$$&**&^%#$@#$^&*(*&%$#@#$%^&*&^%$#$%^&^%$#$%^&%$#$%&^%#$%^*&%$#$^&*&%#$^&*%#@$%^&*&^$#@#%^&^$#@#%$^&*&%@#$^&*&^$#$^&$#^&*&^#$%^&^%#$^&^$#@#%^&#@$%&^$#$%&^%$^&^%&^%^&^$#@#@#%^&*&^%$#@#$%^&*^%#@#$%^&*(&$#@#%^&*&
So fuming.

Sorry about this, I really cannot stand.

Finally...

there is internet access at my new place. I almost bored to death..... all the documents still not yet transfer from old office.
Today is first day of school day after 2 weeks of school holiday. During those 2 weeks, we did not arrange any special outing with Jasmine. Oya, my friend made a surprise visit from Singapore, her daughter is eager to meet Jasmine, they have a good time playing together.
I stop here, will update soon.

First day at nursery

Today is Edmund first day to nursery. I brought him over around 7:15am. The teacher there try to carry him from me, he keep saying don't want (in mandarin). I try to put him down, he cling to me like koala bear! Even I show him the toys there he also don't want. Then the Principal came and carry him from my hand. He start crying and call 'mummy, mummy'. The principal carry him to kitchen, where I hurried went out. I think not to let him saw me, he will be less fuss. But it such a heartache to see him crying like that.
I went to pick him around 11:45am, when he saw me, he is so happy. The principal told me that he stop crying when other children came and he play with them. But occasionally he will moodless, maybe he is thinking of me. He have one bowl porridge and a banana.
I sure tomorrow will be more difficult to left him at the nursery, :(
