Ini entri komplen. Saya minta sorry dulu awal-awal.

Saya minta tolong sedikit boleh? Maaf bukan bermaksud mahu mengecilkan hati mana-mana pihak. But this is really world most annoying thing for me, bila comment box dihujani advertisement free yang I believe you just copy paste the standard text and paste all over the place. I mean all over the blogs or webs yang disinggahi. Maaf again. But I bet you won't have much time to write every single word over and over again for the sake of advertising? So, I assume you take thing short, copy paste jer dalam semua comment/shout box selagi boleh.

Nasib baik I on kan moderator. Otherwise the my haloscan will be flooded dengan advertiser yang memilih cara kacang pis ini. I do business but I don't do this to people. Because I know, it's annoying.

And between, this is my private and personal blog, so please respect my territory. I know I choose to open this blog to public but that doesn't mean you can take this as your platform to sesuka hati hantar advertisement yang masyaallah panjang berjela.

Just don't do that. Or least take the professional way and ask for permission. As easy as that. Yang iklan pendek2 tu I murah hati approve saja, sebab tak sakit mata pun tengok. Tapi kalau yang macam karangan SPM tu, harap maaf I have to delete it. Jangan marah sebab kamu pun tidak tanya saya dulu kan? ;)

Even worst if you leave a comment panjang berjela about USANA. Ada a few yang I just leave unapproved in the haloscan. Hahahhaa. Approve tak, delete pun tak.

Frankly speaking, saya tak business USANA like sumpah beria-ria, suruh orang jadi member semua. Tanya lah siapa2 yang beli USANA from me, I just let them know on whatever they need to know and I don't force people to enroll as a member. So, tidak lah business betul-betul sangat. Suka-suka saja. Hohohohoho. But still, what on earth are you thinking to flood my haloscan with iklan USANA 200 patah perkataan when I'm selling the same thing over here? Ala, susah betul nak eksplen. Are you overly confident that I will defitely approve your free-rider-advertisement? No, I am not. Bukan sebab competition, bukan sebab duit because I'm not selling at retail price pun, tapi sebab this group of people just not using their common sense that the brain can do. Kalau tanya dulu dengan sedikit mukadimah pun mungkin I approve. But it seems like you sesuka hati copy-paste saja iklan kamu.

So the whole thing now is annoying. Maaf lagi sekali jika kamu berkecil hati, tapi INI BLOG SAYA kan? Ha, kan dah nak sama title blog Hanis Zalikha. Ahahaha.
Just show some respect, the same way I do to others. Or else, you can just try on blog-blog lain but I strongly believed that 90% of the owners will just feel the same way like I am.

*Kak Mai mesti angguk kepala setuju sangat dengan I. Kan kan kan akakkk?? =P

Believe it or not, I've taken quite a new interest in cooking lately and remember, the way to man's heart is through his stomach? Aha, old school belief, I know but it's true~! For no specific reason, I just found that home cooking is a uber-strong-tool to men's heart. So, I cook with love.

I'm just a beginner in this field but surely, I am making my way to become a kitchen goddess someday. Eventhough the meals that I prepared are far less than perfect, but I cook with love, so this makes the difference. :) After all, cooking is a trial-and-error process and there's always a room for me to make mistake *and improve jugaklah*. I mean, the more I cook, the more I will learn, because at least I have some insight on what does and doesn't work at all.

But hello, it doesn't mean that you have to do things *cooking in this matter* so that your partner will stay, it just a way for us to complement each other. Of course we need to have other important values like respect, tolerate, trust, honesty, loyalty and etc to make the relationship last a lifetime.

And I got this short note from a friend saying, "kissing and sexing don't last, cooking do". Betul tak? ;)

Anyway, below are two dishes that I made for dinner last night and breakfast this morning. Hahahaha. Jangan gelak. The meals were prepared for a man who is strictly on diet. Ahaks! So, I'm on the safe side now for not having to crack my mind and to mess the kitchen for a plate of nasi-kari. =P

Sorry readers, I’ve been extremely busy lately and I just don’t have much to write and to share in here *aha, lame answer! I know* So sad that I’ve been running my life busy for God knows what and yet, so much is still unfinished and unaccomplished. Please accept my humble apologies for being lagged in writing posts for these couple of weeks. I will try to feed my baby blog with more stories and happenings, rather than to cramp everything into one post and leaving the blog silence once again.

Adam darling, I’m guilty for not writing very much on your milestones for so many months now. Rasa dah lost track, sedih... :'(

And many been asking, “Adam dah pandai apa?” Frankly speaking, definition pandai for a baby is very very subjective. When the baby is screaming his lung out whether demanding or protesting on thing, pun dikira pandai kan? Not just pandai in term of movement (rolling, sitting, standing, walking, waving & etc.). The way they express their emotions is also count as pandai, because that shows they know what they like and dislike. Get me?

Don’t make that eyh-baru-menerap face when I said, yeah he just started to roll over about month ago. Don’t you ever dare to say, “lambat yer??”. Rule no.1: DON’T USE NEGATIVE WORD TO BABY. Or here, to MY BABY. Lambat itu negative. Reti kamu?

But at least, he got his two lower front incisors out at the age of 5 months.

And he knows to point *sort of angkat tangan* or to look at the door everytime he wants to go for his morning/evening walk. No kidding. I strongly believed that he knows what and which is the door that leads to the outside world where he can see “Bird. Dog. Cat. Car. Tree” and such. So, I count that as pandai.

Eyh, apsal emo nih. Shuhhh, negative vibe nih.

Career wise, I have moved to a new job earlier this month. No, not a new place, it’s a new post but still in the same unit and division. So, tidak lah ke mana-mana pun. And surprisingly, my boss said this to me, “Shila, I can see that you are very reserve among others”

First, Hahahahahhahhahahaha.

Second, yeah you're right. I am not what I am when at work. Possibly because I am not open enough to let people come into my territory. It’s like, “kau ada blog pasal your entire life, *lebih kurang lah* but how come you are so reserve in the office?". That kind of remark lah.

My only solid reason that I have here is I don’t have enough trust. Bukan tak trust kerja, tapi tak trust that people will just be good to you. *keji gile pemikiran* Because I saw many cases when people backstab each other to fulfill their own personal motive, so I rather not to get myself involve in such circle. Macam, suka hati kau lah labu nak buat apa pun. Well, a little bit of my fault jugak because I keep holding the thought and thinking everyone is the same. Tapi tu lah, the reality here is “not everyone here is your friend. So be careful”.

Ok, lah nanti saya cuba buang pemikiran cacat itu and try to be more kepochi in the office just like what I am in the outside world. Tapi betul, bila masuk office I immediately transform myself into “saya nak buat kerja saya, saya tak kisah kamu nak buat apa itu kamu punya suka” type. And I choose to just sit in front of my pc ignoring all the gossips Cik Bedah that going around in the office, about si polan dengan si polan and whatnot.

How now brown cow for me to be busy body and to take note of what people been up to? I don’t have problems with anyone here and I don’t hold grudges, it just that I’m a bit of pendiam compared to the rest.

Bahahaha, muntah darah kalau kawan-kawan baca nih. “Shila kau pendiam?” Sile ulang lagi sekali?? Dan sile boleh blah sekarang. I think I need to envision myself becoming one of the GM in TM in few years down the lane. Tapi saya nak jadi CEO ShilasCupcakes, bukan GM di Telekom Malaysia. Hukhukhukhuk…!! Even worst if I said, “I want to be the CEO of the house, running errands and doing household chores, everything at the expense of my husband” *Terus kena tamper dengan AGMs japgi*

Dah. Enough of all the negative vibes that been running and lingering around my life lately.

Now I need to think of what to cook for dinner today. Yes, you read me right. COOK is the word. Saya telah masak dinner untuk husband saya everyday over past two weeks. And I’m glad that he requested non-nasik-lauk-kari dishes but more to healthy diet meals. So now, mihun ladna, mihun hailam, macaroni goring, mihun sup all at my fingertips. Wa dah tere wooo!

Aha! Grilled chicken wrap is the menu for tonight. Hahaha. Jangan gelak, tau lah resepi tak mencabar senduk periuk belanga kan. But it’s healthy and at least it makes my diet-conscious husband happy for his dinner. I wanted to make chicken tortilla but somehow the chunky salsa sauce that I saw in Cold Storage agak meragukan. So I better not and just proceed with my own recipe of grilled chicken wrap. Hopefully jadi lah. =P

My husband and I went for a weekend date at The Curve after the little one being kidnapped to my cousin's place yesterday, hihihihi...Initially, I wanted to watch a movie but ended up chilling in Starbucks and enjoying the fresh brew of coffee. But the worst thing now: it's only been two days since I found my favourite Iced Toffee Nut Latte is back and I already had my fourth venti cup to date. But what can I do? I love it so much and I have to wait until every end of the year to get for one. So, hentam jer lah labuu...

Speaking of Starbucks, it reminds me to one of my hobbies *kalau boleh dikira hobby* which is people-watching. I love coming to this kedai kopi, sitting and watching people while enjoying my venti sized latte, and yesterday was no exception. I can easily amaze and fascinate by the mixture of human emotions; there will be people smiling, laughing, fighting, crying, rushing, stressing or struggling for whatever reason it may be. Betul tak?

And at the end of the day, my conclusion will always be, "life is hard enough, so why make it harder?" and for that, I should be more thankful to Allah for all the blessings I have in life.You should try once. Just get yourself a cup of coffee, sit back, get comfortable and relax. Seriously, this is a kind of entertainment that is fun but doesn't cost any money *except for the drink, hihihi*.

But for my yesterday case, the people-watching-session only lasted for 30 minutes before seeing the Debenhams 30% markdown banner in celebrating the 1st anniversary. So, the husband stayed and lepak-ed with his former schoolmates while his wife went for deal hunting at Debenhams. =P *Sexy luxurious satin nightgown for only RM52 hokeyyy* Muahahahaha..!!

I'm so sorry for the long silence people *2-3 hari tanpa entry adalah long pada saya* A lots of things are happening at the moment (mixture of good and bad) and that's what has been keeping me busy over the past few days till now. In fact I've been holding few entries in the queue but yet to publish it because I haven't had enough time to edit the respective photos. Harap maaf yer ;)

Adam is out with his grandparents to Wangsa Maju, so now I have a quick 15 minutes to write whatever that comes into my mind, before my hubby wakes up and asking for sayang-abang-nak-milo-dengan-roti-please Hihihihi...

First, I'm happy to know that my all time favourite drink, Ice Toffee Nut Latte is back in cafe now. Wooott wooott!! This is the time of the year when my visit to Starbucks will double in amount, first to get my daily dose of the super sedap holiday drink that really hit the spot and second, to collect 11 stamps and get the 2010 planner, hikhikhik *But the whip and the toffee sprinkle will definitely screw up my diet pulak! Sheeshh...* Please, I need an extra brain power to make a wise decision on this.

Ok done with that.

What else? Owh sudah 10 minutes and I have to make it fast.

Anyway, I just want to tell you that I am heavenly happy for the whole wonderful evening spent with my husband and my baby last night (at Pavilion KL). We had a great dinner, good talk, lepak session with Adam future parents in law *hohohoho* and even did some shopping for Adam Haris. Just few important things for him; bottle brush, teat, travel feeding set, Barneys CDs and infant cereal.

At the end of the day, I realized that we just need to make a commitment to spend more time with family, for a package of great things that leads to a happier life. :)
