Happy 2nd Anniversary My Babykia!!

October 15th 2009 marked our two years of being together as a couple. Instead of the usual ways such as having a romantique candlelight dinner at some enlisted fancy restaurant filled with good food or wine or going for a romantic getaway for the weekend or giving a romantic surprise gift to each other, we decided to celebrate our anniversary in a very different manner by having a food feast at Gurney Drive.

We ordered Asam Laksa, Muar Chee, See Kua Ting, Fried Lok-Lok, Soy Bean while we save the best for the last - Rojak as our dessert. We managed to feast on all these mouth-watering food with the cost of only RM20+. Cheap and fulfilling yet we enjoy it to much extent and loving every moment of it!

I know it may not be the ideal way of celebrating one's anniversary for some women, but I think one need not always have an expensive taste to make your anniversary special. Sometimes we can use romantic and inexpensive ideas for an anniversary to celebrate all these years of togetherness.

In my personal viewpoint, what is right for your anniversary is totally up to you regardless of how you celebrate. An anniversary celebration is one of love and togetherness, a time to honor the love that you both share. I don't mean that anniversary is the only time to honor your blooming love, as everyday is a time to rejoice and commemorate the hills and valleys that you both have quell in your love's journey. But anniversary celebration obviously play some important milestone in your relationship as it profess your allegiance to your partner as well as allows both of you to have a glimpse into the future and a look back into the past.

As you come up with ways to make your anniversary special in any way you can, always remember the most important thing....... enjoy each other's company!!

Dining at Vintage Bulgaria

Past few weeks ago, my friends (Leng & Jay) invited me and my baby to have dinner at Ingolf. Unfortunately, Ingolf was full so we gotta find some other restaurant to dine. Just a couple of shops away, there was this Bulgarian restaurant. So, we decided to dine there since we never even been to that restaurant even though we passed there so many times.

I actually loves the atmosphere and surrounding as it is really cosy with the warm lighting. And the basement area reminiscent of a Bulgarian cottage. We were seated at the basement area as it is a non-smoking area.

Upon browsing the menu, we do not know what to expect since we were really new to the Bulgarian food. Me and baby decided to ordered "Chicken Stroganov" and Jay ordered some pork ribs which actually turned out really tasty while Leng ordered a basket of potato wedges which only cost RM5.00. Cheap huh!! We ordered the wedges as well in the end. Couldn't resist the temptation.

Perhaps on the next trip, I would opt to try something more unique.

Homemade Cake

I have made a homemade marble cake for the youth cellgroup last Friday, since it was my baby's turn to bring some food. He's out of idea on what to bring so I have suggested to him why not a homemade cake since I felt a compelling urge to bake one. In another way, I get to sharpen my skills in making cakes to perfections. Who knows, I might own a homemade cake business in the near future. Whoa... a boss!!

Anyway, this is not my first time baking cakes. But this is my first attempt in making a marble cake. Surprisingly, at the end of the day, I got a nice marble cake as it is nicely moist with a light-pound cake texture, considering this is my first. (not the appearance of the top layer because I'm still learning how to swirl the choco into a better design & should have add more choco to make it darker)

I've considered this a success for my first attempt but it will be a process of trial and error to bake the perfect cake. Plain as it may look, the result of this marble cake is most satisfying as my baby & some of them told me that it actually tasted good. *happy*
Guess I gotta keep on experimenting.

What's next?? Angel food cake, jellies..?? What says you??

Hard Rock Hotel

Saturday, 03.10.2009 marked the first time I visited the legendary Hard Rock Hotel in Penang. It is situated along the scenic, famous beaches of Batu Feringghi. Since my baby and Joseph were performing on that night in the lobby lounge, I've decided to tag along. Me and my baby were just so amazed and the next thing I knew, my baby's camera went clicking non-stop.

This hotel is something completely different from the regular hotel in Penang. You might agree with this once you see the pictures below.

Everything in this hotel are just AWESOME!! You really need to be there yourself to experience the authentic Hard Rock milieu.

Vain-pot moments..

One thing in common that me and my hubby have - we both are SUSHI LOVERS!! Often times, I would suggest Sushi if you were to ask me what to have for lunch or dinner. It's a craving that I can't seem to shake it off.

Last Saturday, my baby decided to treat me. So, off we went to Sushi King to satisfy our desired craving for sushi. Often times, we would have a set of Kodomo Bento to share so that we could save some space in our stomach for our favorites.

And a little camwhoring never hurts right??!!

Notable Picture

Found a picture of myself when I was searching for something in my room. It brought back some memories. I still remember vividly the day my grandparents took me to snap this shot at Padang Tembak. Just to let you know I just woke up from my afternoon nap, if you are wondering how come my face looks like this.

Ready to see the picture of the day??
