January Weddings

Before January ends and it's too late to blog about January, I must story about the 3 weddings I attended in January 2011... First of all congrats to all my friends and I wish you eternity happiness!

Here's some exclusive photos via my phone... hehehe

.:Ms.. ehem Mdm Yeap's wedding @ Pullman Kuching on 1.1.11:.

.:Jackson's wedding @ Pullman Kuching on 15.1.11:.

.:Siak Chuan & Adeline's wedding @ Mian Ann on 22.1.11:.

I felt joyful to see happy faces especially on their wedding day. Everyone seems to be getting married and it made me felt that it's time but I guess I have no plan to get married anytime till I'm 30 so why wna rush? hmmmmm...... we'll never know!

Movie Day

I went to movie at MBO with my dad on Friday morning since I was on a week leave before I started the new work. We went for Season of the Witch and to be honest, the movie was not great at all especially extreme slow story line in only 1 hour 30 minutes or slightly more.

Before movie, we had lunch at Ting’s Noodle (Spring Branch). Dad said the dishes were too salty but I think it’s quite reasonable since dad has a very mild taste by nature.

.:Waiting for the lunch!:.

Well I think this will be the last time dad and I will go for movie  in MBO because there’s a lot of climbing to do before reaching the Cineplex itself which I’ve just realized when looking at dad climbing and complaining about the staircases. It’s really quite hard to please my Papa but I enjoy spending time with him. :)

.:Notice the Staircase...:.

Gingerbread man

This is a left-out post to thank Chef Shukor for the birthday gingerbread man for the BF. (This is because he totally forgotten the praline I informed him about due to the birthday falls on the same time as Christmas Lighting) Boyong one... 'Joking hehehe'

.:Me and the King Size Gingerbread Man:.

.:Kenak torn apart into our stomach:.

.:Finishing:.

We ate every part of the gingerbread man coz it's very-very delicious and sweet. Something different to replace birthday cake... ha ha

Chinese New Year Pineapple Tarts for Sale!

I've always love to eat one of those 'Melts in Your Mouth' pineapple tarts and couple years ago, I tried baking it myself with some help from the recipe I got through google search and it worked out quite well. Back then, I baked some for eating pleasure and shared with my friends, relatives and colleagues coz good things are meant to be shared! 

Since I will not start working until 10 January and Chinese New Year is so near, Angela suggested I should bake pineapple tarts for sale and she would be my first customer coz she just missed the taste of it. By posting the picture in Facebook (Click Here) informing most of my close friends yesterday, I now have 15 orders and it will definitely increase as I still have to bake for myself.. 

I have bought 20pcs pineapple and did the pineapple peeling and blending work yesterday. Such a tiring work.. hehe. The first batch of the baked pineapple tarts should be available from tomorrow onwards selling at RM20 for 50pcs.

The secret of why it is so irresistible is because of of two elements which are

100% Golden Churn Butter 

100% Fresh Pineapple

How does the pineapple tarts look like,

.:This is how it looks before going into the oven:-

.:Peeling and cutting the pineapple 'like pro':.

.:cut into smaller pieces before blending it:.

.:The blended pineapple and Lotsa Pineapple Juice for the day:.

.:Cook it for about 2 hours until it's brown & dry and add some sugar & Cinnamon:.

.:The waste is so heavy T_T:.

If you are in Kuching and have read this post before 25th January 2011 and craving for pineapple tarts like this, it means it's still on time to order. Email me at aliciakcng@hotmail.com or PM me in Facebook (Alicia Ng). It's RM24 per container of 50pcs and you can choose to collect from my house or I can send to you if you stay within 8km from town area. ;)

New Years Eve BBQ Pot Luck Party

First post of the year!

It has been more than 3 years since I moved here and have never invited anyone for any house warming or anything and have been traveling for most of the Chinese New Years..

Since I'm in the mood and the home is quite empty (Only me and The Papa), I've invited some close friends and relatives for a BBQ pot luck party on... 31st December 2010.

First Great Help

The first crowd who came were Chiao Fang, Angela and the kids. Dad was very amazed with how talkative they are.. I am sure my niece will be like that in a few years. hehe the two gurls helped me with setting up the tables and washing the glasses etc. 

Second Great Help

The second crowd was Ellen and the hubby Justin. They helped me to prepare the BBQ area as well as 'Penggang' the lamb, chicken wing and luncheon meat. Yuhuu! 

Third Great Help

The few other people who had also been helping were Onga Ko, Nelson, Siew Phing & Fung Fung with some clearing and dish washing. 

Without all these people, I would have been dead after the first hour... So  lucky and very grateful to have helpful, caring and bubbly friends and relatives.... It's always nice to have a simple gathering like this and dad was very happy with the kids around. Overall, everyone was happy I guess but so sorry to those whom I can't entertained enough and thanks for coming! Here's some of the photos taken: -
