Lucky Bro.

 Holla lovely folks!
It's been awhile since I post some random ramble.And I'm just in the mood to share an interesting event that happened recently, so, stay tuned folks. :)

It was my eldest brother's birthday last Saturday. Tho I was not as enthusiast as his fiancee to surprise him on his special day, I became her partner in crime in preparing the mini event.

My brother was such a bully that he'd been requesting for future SIL to bake an ice cream cake for him, but since she didn't have much spare time due to her bizarre work schedule, she decided to just buy it. And the only place that we know for selling it is the new Baskin Robbins at 1B. So?? BR is it.

Future SIL had a night shift the night before, so, we confide to meet at 1B for the cake. And that day was the first day in my longus holiday that I wake up early in the morning. Lol. 
Anyway, I took a bus from home to 1B and meet future SIL there. As expected we were early, but we didn't expect the store to open at 11am. Ok, I know I'm a noob, but we never have BR here what, and I thought the standard time for any shop to open at a mall was 10am. Betul kan? ;p

So we went to buy lunch as an accompaniment for the cake and even mindlessly bought the opposite door's Dunkin's donuts while waiting. @.@

When the store finally opened, we straightaway went for the cakes! 
The way the cakes were sold in BR was different from other store/ bakery that sells cake. 
You choose the cake based on the number of serving. For example, either for 4 people, 6 people or more, and the price differ depending on the number. 
And okay, most of you may have known this, but, I'm still an BR noob, so, sabarlah ya. Hee.

The selections were limited for our walk-in cake-hunt, so we just randomly chose one of the few flavors of ice-cream cake there. And chocolate is always the safest choice, don't you think. :)
Chocolate/ vanilla ice cream cake
Le bro was overly tired from work the day before, so he was still asleep by the time that we went back.
And then the usual surprising process happened and that was him with future SIL in his 'bedraggled' look after being forced to wash up for picture taking. Hehe.
The mindlessly bought donuts that are still in the fridge.
And my fascination for the ice cubes that keep the cake intact for our journey home.  

My brother was damn lucky right?! To have such a cool cake for his birthday. Oops. It seem like I'd been putting the limelight on the cake rather than the birthday boy since the beginning till the end.
Anyway, Happy birthday Bro! 

ps: The reason for the lack of enthusiasm to celebrate le bro birthday was that he didn't wish me mine on my birthday the week before. @.@ Tidak puas hati betul. Hehe.

Baking project part II

I had another round of baking project after my first attempt failed last holiday. 

But the result was still non-satisfactory.. *Sad*

The oven that I used was an old one and there was an error with the temperature setting, so that the cakes does not rise properly. 

To prevent history from repeating itself, it's decided that my next baking project will be on the day when I bought a new oven. *God know when* 

Don't be fooled by the cupcakes appearance, I covered the disproportionate cake's surface with loads of creams. ;o

I was gonna say that the cakes were edible and the taste was not bad, but it feels inappropriate to praise myself here. Lol.

Just sharing. ;)

Foodie Affairs: Tanjung Aru Feast

" Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and  let the food fight it out inside" ~ Mark Twain


Venue: Tanjung Aru Beach Food Court, Kota Kinabalu

The place is a well known place in KK.
And I bet you went to this place for at least once right? ;p

Well, for me.. The place is nice, with the beach and all. But for a single lady like me, I am not one of those people who enjoys a stroll along the beach, I might do so if I have a partner, but I don't have one for the time being  so, that's not one of the reason that I love this place. Hee.

And the foods. Yeah. Its all about the food.
And I'm not saying about the usual 'fried rice' or 'fried mee' from the rows of food stalls available on the food court either. I believe that you do agree with me that all that are of no difference compare to other food at other place other than Tg Aru right. (Sorry if the words are confusing.. ;p)

What I'm trying to say that I'm in love with about this place is theseeee!
1. Scrumptious Mixed fruits ABC
2. Luscious Satays
3. Delish Chicken Wings
4. And a newly discovered 'Keropok Lekor'
So what do you think, these are the reason why you kept going back to that place right?
;p

Just a simple post to make you drool. ;p
Ciao.. XOXO Gee.

Foodie Affairs: Pancake House, One Borneo

"Beware the hobby that eats" ~ Benjamin Franklin

The buddy had vow to take a bite on the pancakes of this awesome restaurant when it was first opened in One Borneo, Kota Kinabalu.
But, the plan was postponed for so many time due to unknown reason. Hee.
And at last. On this very day, we managed to fulfilled our self-made promise.

Venue: Pancake House, One Borneo KK
Le spontaneous trip between me and one of the buddy, le Firah.
wink ^.<
 We were indecisive when making our orders as all the foods served in the restaurant was heavenly.
Not quite understand of what I'm trying to say here, why don't you flip through the menu and see for yourself. You will get a headache too right. ;p
Click Here for the menu.

After a period of contemplation, we choose the 'hearty mains and healthy dishes' course, which consists of a main dish and a glass of lemon iced tea.
Le Firah's Hot Roast Chicken
My Classic Pan Chicken.
The foods was nice but we haven't try the pancakes yet.
Will go again in the future for the pancakes! :)

November Rain

Wink wink!
Hello November people! :)
Google image
Mr October has packed his bag and leave us all.. and he will come again next year for his yearly visit.
So, we lefted with two more months before Christmas Day and New year..
Time sure is moving fast and in a blink it's gonna be new year again. :)
For this time being, I want to forget about the future and look back at the past for a bit..

Last October would be nice except for the surgery posting exam.
 I screwed my papers and probably would need to repeat the papers on next posting. *Sigh*
What to do. Things happened and all I can say is let bygone be bygone and brace up for the worst case scenario. >.<

And after exam, we have a week of holiday.. and....
Initially, I've listed down a number of things to do on this holiday...
Well.. all the while I were studying for last paper's exam, I will get random ideas of what to do on the coming holiday..
But, as per usual, not all things goes as planned.. and yeah.. memang banyak janji janji palsu toward own self.. *Facpalm*

Lemme just list down some of things that I planned to do this holiday.
1. Register for a driving class
2. Bake a cake
3. Finished my novels
4. Study for coming medicine posting

And out of the four: I have yet to accomplish one. *Facepalm* again.
I failed in registering myself in a driving class as I have no one to send me to the academy, as the only brother that I can depend on is busy with his work. *sigh*
I kinda pushed myself for this for the past few weeks because I will start working next year and knowing the busy life of my chosen career, it will be hard for me to not own my own transport. But, memandangkan tidak berjaya, what to do lah.. I will try again next holiday. Hehehe

Bake a cake.
google image
I had been postponing this plan ever since last Last holiday.
I was planning to bake cupcakes at first but after seeing Sis Stella baked a cheesecake, I was motivated to make one too. Then, just before holiday, she made a chocolate fondant, and it was tempting too.
So, I was juggling the 3 choices in my head and at last minute I decided to make the choc fondant!
I prepared all the things needed to make the awesome cake and will start on the Choco fondant project tomorrow. Yeah! So, this is confirmed to be accomplish punya mission. Hehe

Novels oh novels..
Well, I left 4 of my novels at home to prevent me from reading it over the medical books last holiday.
Now that I have the time to do so, I hope that I can finish at least one of it.
I'm half way through 'Beautiful Chaos'. 4 more days before class start, I can do this!
Yeay! :)

Study for coming medicine posting??
Uh oh.
*Smile*
Yeap. Haven't do so yet. hee..

4 more days of holiday.
Good luck mi self in accomplishing the missions!

Signing out..~ ET

Jumbled up post

I'm in the mood of posting something on my page.

Went back hostel after lunch and was distracted by the Jambu air's tree in front of our block.
And decided to do some harvesting and...
