FrOm bAbY uMaR tO AbaNg UmAr...


Our precious son will turn 3 this coming July. Hence, I have decided not to call him Baby Umar anymore. Of course, as a mom, we wish that our children will always be our baby forever. So, when it is time to spoil him a little bit, or when i try to coax or flatter him, I always call him Baby Umar. Of course, he likes it so much when I call him like that. But, it started to have bad effects. 

Well, he is after all a clever boy, Alhamdulillah. So, he started to manipulate the word 'baby'. For example, when I told him that he needs to wean off pacifier, and start trying to ditch his diapers, or he needs to walk rather than having us carrying him because he is already a big boy, he always came with the same excuse which is " Umar kecik lagi, Umar kan baby lagi"...his words exactly. 

I tried calling him Abang Umar before. But, not for long because I always switch back and forth to Baby Umar again and again. Perhaps the main reason is because he is my only child for now. But I guess I need to be firm from now on. Well, being firm is a tough job especially towards our own little munchkin. Hopefully, I can do it well since I want Umar to start potty training and weaning off bottles and pacifier, little by little. Insha Allah...No pressure, all children develop at their own pace and their own way. That is what I strongly believe... (^_^)

SaVe tHe DaTE...

Ramadhan bakal menjelang kurang 2 bulan lagi. Kurma memang sinonim dengan bulan mulia ni. Kurma sememangnya berkhasiat tapi entah kenapa saya tak berapa menggemari nya. Kalau dulu2, makan kurma memang la masa bulan Ramadhan je. Itu pun makan sikit je, tak sampai sebiji pun sehari, share dengan mak or abah ke. Masa pregnant dulu kena paksa makan kurma. Nak tak nak makan juga la. Tapi, Alhamdulillah, lepas tu boleh la juga makan at least sebiji sehari. Baby pun bila lahir, kuat, sihat walafiat. Selepas tu, bila Ramadhan mula makan kurma boleh dikatakan setiap hari. Tapi, habis Ramadhan lupa nak makan kurma. Sedar2, dah expired kurma tu. Tapi, takde la lama sangat expired date nya. Kiranya masih boleh makan lagi la. So, saya pun Google resepi alternatif untuk kurma. Jumpa la resipi ni di sini. Terima kasih ye empunya blog dan resipi. Hujung minggu tiba, masa untuk mencuba la resipi ni. Alhamdulillah, hasilnya memang best. Paling seronok sekali, hubby, Umar n family pun suka. Umar yang picky eater tu pun makan kek ni sampai tak nak stop. Alhamdulillah. Jadi, saya kongsikan resepi nya di sini ye...Sesiapa yang ada lebihan kurma tu boleh la cuba. Berbaloi-baloi...Save the date, ya!!!

2. Tuang campuran kurma dalam mangkuk besar.
3.Masukkan telur,mentega,vanila,tepung naik sendiri dan tepung gandum. Kacau hinggga sebati- guna senduk kayu je.

5. Bakar pada suhu 180 selama 30 min@ sehingga masak.

Inilah hasilnya....



Ini pula Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcakes... buat untuk kali kedua. Kali pertama tak menjadi sebab salah faham resepi baca 'beat egg white until foamy je', terlepas pandang 'until soft peak formed'...Kali kedua, Alhamdulillah, much more better than the first try. Tapi, masih belum sempurna. Insha Allah, ada ruang dan peluang akan cuba lagi sampai puas hati. (^_^) till then....
