Missing my craft time...

Picture : Google Images

1/2 year gone.....Arghh.... Time flies.... and here I am again to complain about me not having time to make craft... The last was..

• school's sports day - making them looking like ladybird
• Vaani's Order - will find time to upload the pictures
• Jasmine's 3rd Birthday which I yet to blog about

I stock up my supplies but sadly to say I can't find time to make something from it. Too much of other commitments that require my attention. Some of the supplies I got it from my Sista (Love ya!). She helps me to buy whenever she travels to the States.. It's super cheap. I also ordered some stuff from ScrapnCrop and Beading. I also got myself a new toy..... Guess what is it????

Currently, I am busy at school. I'm there til late evening everyday this week. Next week, I will have to attend a 3-day course from 8.30 to 4.30. I heard that it'll be a BORING one... Sigh...

Hopefully I can make some lovely things next month... *Crossing my fingers and toes*

Kelantan

We made a trip to Kelantan to attend Kak Ewa's Wedding. My high school mate. Appu, Amma, Jasmine, Me and Julie (my bestie since high school). The drive from Penang to KB took about 5 and half hours.

Checked-in at Flora Place along Jalan Kebun Sultan which was walking distance to Siti Khadijah Market (Tourist Attraction). Quite a decent place with affordable rates.

We were there for 2 nights. We covered :
3 Buddhist Temples - Sleeping Buddha, Sitting Buddha and Walking Buddha
2 Night Markets (1 at KB town itself and another was the famous one at Wakaf Che Yeh),
Kak Ewa's Akad Nikah and Sanding,
Pantai Cahaya Bulan,
a Thai-Chinese Restaurant for a yummylicious dinner hosted by Julie's cousin,
Pasar Siti Khadijah where we did most of our shopping
Kampung Kraftangan for Cikgu's Nasi Ulam

Eventful May

I know I know... It has been more than a month I abandoned my blog... Shame on me for not making the time but I was really busy to the max last month... Okay  where shall I start??? Hmmm...

May kicked off with me getting a tablet for myself.... Yippie... It was not a planned purchase.. I promise. Was with Appu at PISA during the PC Fair... I was actually surveying on netbook then Ipad caught my eyes... So just then Appu explained to me how a tablet works.. Compared netbook and tablet, made a very fast decision and purchased Samsung Galaxy Tablet... WOW!!! And now, Papa and Jasmine are fighting over it to play Angry Birds.

Then, a lot of meeting and workshop I attended in May added with May School Activities - Farewell Dinner, Appreciation Dinner, Teacher's Day, Language Activities, Sports Practice, Language Activities etc etc...

Finally, May 28th came and it's SCHOOL BREAK!!!! Yahoo... Made a trip to Kelate....

More updates coming soon....

Homemade Pizza and Apple Cinnamon Rolls for Earth Hour 2011 (Updated)

Yesterday was my baking day! Managed to make Apple Cinnamon Rolls in the afternoon and Pizza for Dinner... Thanks Mummy (Mother-In-Law) for handing over your breadmaker... I'm using it every week!

Apple Cinnamon Rolls

My Sous-Chef

Pizza

My friend wanted to try the rolls.. so I'm adding the recipe.. It's from my Amy Beh's Cook Book

Apple Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients

Filling
• 1 Granny Smith apple
• 15g castor sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 15g butter
Dough
• 240g high protein flour
• 40g plain flour
• 2 tbsp milk powder
• 1/2 tsp bread improver
• 9g instant dried yeast
• 50g castor sugar
• 20g butter
• 85g lukewarm water
• 85g lukewarm fresh milk
• 20g melted butter for brushing
• Cinnamon powder and icing sugar combined
Glaze (beaten)
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 tbsp water

Method

For the filling: Skin, core and dice apple. Melt butter in a non-stick pan. Add the apple, sugar and salt. Cook for 4?5 minutes until apple turns
slightly soft. Puree the cooked apple in a food processor.
For the dough: Sift flour into a large mixing bowl. Stir in milk powder, bread improver, sugar and yeast. Make a well in the centre and pour in combined milk mixture and butter. Mix to form a soft dough.
Knead the dough for about 10?12 minutes until no longer sticky to the touch. Place dough in a covered bowl to rise until double in bulk. This takes about 30?40 minutes.
Punch down the dough. Roll out on a floured surface into a flat rectangular sheet. Brush lightly with melted butter. Sprinkle with combined cinnamon powder and icing sugar. Apply a light layer of apple puree. Sprinkle with a little more of the cinnamon powder mixture. Roll up tightly.
Cut into 6 equal portions. Place each portion into an aluminium tart casing / muffin paper casing. Leave aside to prove until double in size.
Bake in a preheated oven at 190°C for about 15 minutes. Immediately after baking, brush the rolls with beaten egg yolk and sprinkle lightly with icing sugar.
p/s: Wait til the rolls cool then you can tear off the paper casing easily.

Weak!

Picture from Google Images

I literally can sleep by the toilet bowl... Been having diarrhea since yesterday morning... Had fever by noon then I took a nap... It started again (diarrhea) after dinner... I couldn't sleep.. then again I rushed to toilet... Popped in imodium around 2 am..  Finally, I could sleep.. Got up and get dressed for school... Before stepping out.. another trip to toilet but this time I vomited... Decided to visit my GP.... Took 5 types of medicine and a urine test...
Now I'm in between making porridge and blogging... Have to see my GP again by noon to make sure I don't throw up or diarrhea... Hopefully I won't get admitted... Tired of frequenting the hospital..... What I need now is 100Plus and the bed....
