Wutchalookinat Malaysia

Yah...I know it's a mouthful. This is my brother's blog that he is doing when he has trouble sleeping. I don't know what it's about yet but I know it's a mixture of everything. I'm just here to give him the support and may the blogging force be with you...LOL

Snow

It finally snowed. I got out of work today with a little suprise from mother nature. Snow!!! I love the first day of snow and I can't wait to drive in it tomorrow morning. I know I sound weird, but I love the challenge. Now that I got all wheel drive and such... :) Ask me again in a week what I think about the snow. I'll say it sucks!!! Not to sound crazy but I think this is the only thing I'll miss when I go home in a couple of years. *sniff* *sniff*

Plain & Simple

I don't know how many times I have changed the look of my blog. I was never satisfied by the layout and wanted more. I wanted a simple and clean template so today, the whole day, I had wasted my time going online and searching for blog templates. I know that you can rearrange the look of your template but my HTML days has gone by and I don't...well, I'm a dummy at it now. :) I guess I can settle for this one. Until I learn how to write the codes again.

Another month has end..

October went by pretty quick and now that November is here....that means Thanksgiving Sale!!! Although I say every year, I don't feel like buying anything since I've already have everything, which in translation means...I'm going shopping first thing in the morning on the day after Thanksgiving for something that I don't really need and will regret later... typical. What else am I going to do with that big money I earned at Summit...LOL **wink** **wink**

Rasa Malaysia--Butter shrimp/prawns

I tried her butter prawns recipe today. It turn out pretty good except I forgot the garlic and had to substitute grated coconuts with coconut milk and didn't have any leftover curry leaves from the Raya open house the other day, so I sprinkle a little bit of Baba's curry powder just enough to give it that mouth-watering aroma. I tried taking pictures of the processes and it went dead after 3 shots....arggghhh....I'll try this recipe again and with fully charged batteries. :) Highly recommend for simple dinner or when you just malas nak masak....

Rasa Malaysia

As usual, what I do every weekend...look up Malaysian recipes that I can try at home...been here for almost 10 years and missing all the masakan kampung, the variety of kuih and drinks...OMG!!! :-0 I haven't had Sarsi for awhile.... :) Anywho, I give kudos to this one young lady where I stoled her delicious recipes from.
Her website is http://www.rasamalaysia.com/. She has alot of good recipes...so Tajul, if you are reading this...tengok dia punya website k... I found another website...a very good cook as well, but can't seem to find her in my favs file...I'll put up a post later when I find it again...

It's cold!!!

Raya is over and I have gain all the weight that I lost during the fasting month. Sedihnya... anywho, we went sight-seeing at Fitzgerald Park. It was beautiful minus the allergies. It wasn't that cold when we went up there. Suprisingly, it was 81F in Lansing. A good day to take fall pictures. Now that summer is officially over...here comes winter...

Raya

We all had a good time at our Raya open house. More than a handful of people showed up which made it more merrier. There were people everywhere, in our garage, our kitchen, on our stairs, anywhere they can find a place to sit. These are the few that stayed awhile to keep us company. :) Happy Raya 2007 everyone.

p/s Forgot to tell you all. Make sure you keep an eye out for our picture in Utusan. We thought that this picture was good enough to be included in the Salam Raya column... :)

Selamat Hari Raya

Yay! Raya is around the corner. Alhamdullilah, we have completed one of our obligation this year. Selamat Hari Raya to all. Banyaklah minta maaf ye...for silap kata and attitude towards you all.

I couldn't believe...

I got an email from a friend of mine with this video attached to it. At first I thought it was one of those stupid prank video that ask u to stare at it for a couple of minutes and a guy pops up and scares the hell of you. But what I saw was unbelievable. It took me quite a long time to process what it was. I thought that someone had painted the body of the baby with black paint and then I took a good look at her eyes...words cannot express what I was feeling at that time. I read the story that my friend had sent me so I try to translate it as good as can...it goes....

This happened in Makkah, somewhere around this year (2007), the lady that happened to was pregnant with her third child. Her first 2 children are girls and she was very anxious to have a boy. However, during her regular exam, the doctor had done a scan and told her that her baby was a girl. She was quite depressed and sadden by the news because she really wanted a boy. Throughout her pregnancy, whenever anyone ask her whatever her baby is a girl or boy, she would reply that she was pregnant with a baby snake. On the day of her baby's delivery, she gave birth to baby girl but the only thing that was different about her is that her physical appearance does look like the markings on a snake.

Please be warn! You may not like what you see!

After watching the video, I was speechless and I cried. I cried because she doens't deserve this. All babies are innocent.

Hello again people. After being sick for 3 days it's finally good to be back and posting. Actually, there is nothing to post anyways. I had a fabulous 4 day weekend which was cut short but a slight fever/flu in the forecast. Wasn't very happy about it. Anywho, raya is coming..... :)
