Blueberry Cheese Tart - The 1st trial..

****************

~ recepies taken from myresepi.com from the owner haz_amon. Thank you!!

Okey..bahan2 dan cara2 seperti dibawah:

Bahan-bahan ( 10 biji ) ~~~~ my one, since I used the aluminum foil cup yg kecik2 cumel tu...so, I dapat lebih dari 36pc's
Bahan untuk Sweet Pastry:-
125 gm mentega / margerin
60 gm gula aising
1 biji telur (gred B) saiz sederhana besar
240 gm tepung gandum ~~~~~~ Cik Little Lizzy Me agak2 j tepung. Masukkan tepung sket2 sampai jadi doh


~~~~~~ Untuk kasi pastry jd lebih rangup, Cik Little Lizzy tgk kat tv n baca, Sblm bakar tu, elok lah simpan kat freezer sekejap. Masukkan doh td dlm plastic bag. Then simpan dlm freezer 15-20 min. Hasilnya, bila da 2hari dlm freeze tu pon bila mkn still rasa rangup juga. Tp kena simpan dlm airproof food container la ye.

Untuk buat pastry shells tu, I just roll out pastry on a lightly floured tabletop. Ikut ketebalan yg u ol suka. Cut out circles to fit tart moulds ( the aluminum foil tart tu ), then press and trim the edges. Sblm bakar, cucuk2 sket base tu dgn garpu .~~~~~~~

Bahan untuk Cheese Filling(inti):-

250 gm cream cheese ~~~~~ Me guna phildephia
50 gm gula aising ~~~~~~ gula pon agak2 j. Sbb xmo manis
20 gm mentega (lembutkan)
1/2 sudu besar perahan lemon
1 biji telur (gred B)
Blueberry pie filling ~~~~~ Me x guna pie filling, guna jam blueberry j. Sedap juga!!

~~~~~~ kalau nak add whipping cream pon boleh. Sket jer, jgn bnyk sangat. Dlm 20g ok da.~~~~~~


Cara-cara
1.Panaskan ketuhar pada suhu 180 C.

2.Untuk membuat sweet pastry: -pukul mentega/marjerin dan gula aising sampai creamy. masukkan telur, pukul lagi. Selepas itu masukkan tepung. Gaul hingga membentuk doh. Tekankan doh tadi ke dalam bekas tart. Tekan kedalam kemas-kemas. Trim tepinya dengan batang sudu atau pisau. Bakar pada suhu 180 C untuk 15-20 minit. Tunggu sejuk dulu baru keluarkan daripada acuan tart. ( Owh, dekat pastry ni, cik little lizzy masukkan secubit garam. Skeettt j taw. Bukan nk kasi masin..tp nk kasi dia rasa lemak2 sket.)

3.Untuk membuat cheese filling: -pukul cream cheese, mentega dan gula aising till fluffy. Akhir sekali masukkan telur dan perahan lemon, pukul.

4.Sendukkan cheese filling tadi kedalam piping bag dan pipekan kedalam doh tart yang sudah dibakar tadi. Hiaskan diatas dengan blueberry filling dan susun diatas dulang pembakar dan bakar pada suhu 180 C selama 10 minit atau filling tadi nampak macam kering sedikit. ( Untuk buat marble effect, swril the blueberry filling using the "garpu" or "lidi satay". Tarik2 la ikut creativity masing2. Hehe.. Since I guna Blueberry jam, susah sket nk buat corak2 ni sbb texture jam tu x lembut mcm bluberry filling. )

Okey...senang j kan??

Selamat mencuba!!

Nota kaki Little Lizzy : Sedaaaaaappp resepi ni. Boleh try bnyk kali. Hehehe...
Pada yg baru 1st time nk try tu, guna la aluminum foil cups tu dulu. Murah jer.. 36pc's RM2.99 kat Giant. Kalau nk beli acuan yg betul terus pon ok gak..boleh buat selalu2 kan. ;D

Keep aside and let the sugar cold itself for a while. Beat the eggs in medium level for 5 minute and add the fresh milk and evaporated milk into it, stirring briskly. Then, add the vanilla and Custard flour; blend well. ( Warning : Don't over-beat the mixture. Its enough to beat at a slow to medium level only. And dont beat to long. )Pour mixture into custard cups/ Aluminum foil pan with melt sugar just now. Put inside the preheated stimmer and stim for about 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. Unmold into shallow dessert dishes to serve.

Wiken oh Wiken siri ke-2

~~~~~~~~~~~~
Last weekend...a lotsa program we plan.Some jadi..some of its..lain pulak jadinya. Haha..

At first, on Saturday tu..me have Sime Darby Netball Inter-Department tournament in the morning while En.Suami got his mid-term from 10-12pm. After that we plan to go to Melaka for kenduri.. and went back to KL before maghrib since Ayah n Ummi want to come and give us a visit. Beside, they also want to buy some stuff for abang's wedding. Compared to in Perak, here got more choices and the price is slightly cheaper izit?

After the netball ( which my team got 2nd place, wehooooo..!! ), I iron baju n siap2 nak pegi melaka while waiting my En. Suami balik dr exam. He said..there is terrible jammed out there. His exam held in Bangi, so, from Bangi to Ukay Perdana, it tooks almost 2 hours to reach home. Pity my baby. Da la I x masak kan..sbb beside letih balik dr netball, I was plan to eat at the kenduri j. ( luckily I already prepared quit heavy breakfast for him nasi goreng and telur separuh masak 2 biji n nescafe. ) Then, we know that beside Ayah n Ummi, Mak Long n Mak Usu with the whole family pon nk datang mkn2 kat rumah we ol. Since Qistina in KL, everybody is happy where they can easily meet the little Qis more often now. ;D Me like it too!!

So, En.suami ask me to clean the house first before going to the kenduri. Perhaps he also want to take his time after tiring stuck in jammed and having a tough exam. I 1st swept the floor, lap2 lantai, basuh baju, sidai kain n lipat the clean laundry while En.Suami also help me in vacuuming the carpet. After all..I feel so terrible tired and cannot further go to the kenduri. probably because of the side effect of madecine that I have to take recently. I read the effect are I will be easily get tiring and will have a big appetite to eat. ( I can control my apetite, but cannot control the tired part ) I was so upset cause cannot make it to the kenduri. But I know..I dont have much left energy to go there. Thinking of..after a long journey to Melaka, I have to rushly back to KL and prepared for the guest that coming to my house. So, I decide not to go to the kenduri. En.Suami was upset with my suddent decision not to go, since I was sooo excited a few days back. He tought, I was upset with him or what, tp I really2 xde energy da masa tu...letih sangat sampai shaking nk sidai kain n lipat baju pon. Thingking of nk pergi Melaka, then nk rush balik n prepare for the guests who want to come..ohh, x larat. lagipon, with the unexpected jammed, risau x sempat pulak nk sampai rumah awal. Now kan da start school holiday.

Luckily, Ummi pesan not to cook anything. They will buy the food for all of us. So, I prepare air saja. Haha..suka suka suka..

Malam tu..abang datang with the eggs and fresh milk to make the "puding telur". Aiyoo..jemu la mkn puding telur tu. But since, permintaan ramai...we make it. 2 biji puding skali buat mlm tu..Actually abang did it with my supervision. He insist to make it by his own...lantak kannnn!!!!!!!

Ohh...not forgotten, that night was abang's birthday. Sblm makan, ayah baca doa selamat ramai2..and since there is no cake...we substitute it with puding telur td. Hehehe..ok la tuuuuuew! It was fun bila dapat kumpul ramai2, chit chatting together. Rindu nak buat family days Haji Salleh's family.

Alaaa......rugi x sempat nk take picture of abang's birthday puding. 1st time dia buat tau...terus jadi. Haaa....tengok la siapa cikgu nya kannnnn. Wink wink..

Ahad tu..after breakfast, we go to Nagoya. Ummi nk beli langsir. Lama jugak kat Nagoya tu..rambang mata nk pilih langsir yg mana satu. Lepas tu mkn2 kat food court sblm window2 shopping. Ummi beli blouse labuh n Adik sempat beli DVD Adnan Sempit..ok jugak, I pon belom sempat tgk lagi cerita tu. Boleh la...lawak jugak but still stereotype. Lebih kurang mcm cerita lain2 jugak. Hero jatuh cinta dgn this girl..mula2 x suka.pastu lama2 bercinta betul2. Mcm cerita "i'm not single" mula2, x suka, lepas tu..lama2 hero tu buat sumthing2 yg touching sket...pompuan tu suka la. Terus hero biasa2 tu jadi mcm Mr.Charming. Aksi2 rempit x bnyk sangat. Bnyk cerita side mcm percintaan kawan kpd hero n heroin ( Along raja lawak n sape ntah pompuan tu )...dan juga side story of matcha n family ( Cat farish n Julia Hana ). That my point of view.. kepada fanatik cerita ni..sila jgn marah I key. I rate cerita ni as biasa2 jer. At "par" la..ok what?? dari I rate it below par.. Tp the rate is at par for all the malay movie. Kalau campur2 dgn international movie, dia bawah sket dr cerita Padayappa! Ahaks..

Lepas tgk cerita Adnan Sempit, Ayah n Ummi balik kg. Abang still at my house..tertidur tgk cerita Adnan Sempit tu. Haha... Then, Kak Anna plan nk buat small surprise for abang's birthday. Kesian kat abang sbb arijadi dia xde cake. Jadi, Kak Anna pon beli la cake untuk abang debab tu. So, bila abang bangun tido jer..terus we surprise kan dia. Hehehe... ( even he not look like surprised..but he look lost or "mamai"...sbb baru bgn tido kan..)

We having the cake together with keropok lekor n air sirap bandung. Keropok lekor tu da seminggu kat dlm our fridge. I beli kat Keramat AU. 3 packets RM10. Tp x goreng2. Duduk berdua j kat rumah kan..baik beli j kat tepi jalan keropok lekor rm1 dpt bnyk suda. Hahaha... ( ok2...sy memang si pemalas. I blame the hormone.. ) ;P

The Magical Vaseline Petroleum Jelly

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Why I have soo many Vaseline Petroleum Jelly?? haha

This is one of my favorite products Vaseline Petroleum Jelly. Can called it magic jelly that there are so many uses for Vaseline that many people might not know. I have the classic Vaseline all over my house. Tubs of it. Its everywhere! I have it inside my bedroom, living room, inside my handbag, in the office, at my home town's room and yeda yeda yeda. There are a zillion uses for it, and did you know half of those zillion are beauty related!

The most common used is to prevent dry, chapped skin or to soften skin that is already dry. Before my wedding I have a problem with my sensitive hand skin. I cannot simply used any dishwashing otherwise my hand will start rashes or have an eczema. I also cannot touch the clothes soap and a very chemical cleaning agents, Its because the tendency to get skin reactions is high for my skin. That is why i always wash my clothes using the shampoo or body shower gel instead. Hehe.. Tapi selalunye I pakai washing machine..So, no prob.
It happen to me a few week before my wedding. I got the skin reaction where the tapak tangan went dried and "pecah2". So, I rub Vaseline onto my dried skin everyday and it resulting in much softer skin in just a few days. Believe me. But the thing is you must be 'rajin' la..for me..I'll apply it whenever I remember. Sambil2 pikir buat account kat office tu..I sapu. Lepas mandi sapu lagi..even dalam kereta pon, masa jammed tu, sempat lagi nk sapu. Hahaha...betul ni, x tipu. At that time i'm kinda desperate la jugak..lagi few weeks to my big days kannn..It was so amaizing, when the result is just in few days.Its help to make my fingernails pliable and resilient too. So, I keep applying its until the "Day". Sampai my aunts masa preparation b4 kawen tu sentuh tangan I risau nnt mak mertua I ckp I ni x pandai buat kerja rumah sbb tgn lembut sangat. ;P ekekeke.. Tp kan..I remember, lepas cuti kawen, my husband said, tangan dia pun jadi lembut sbb asyik pegang tgn I. X caya, try tanya dia..

Next, the second most common use is for the face. Putting Vaseline on your lips can soothe them and protect them from windburn or as a lipgloss. Putting Vaseline on your lips overnight will insure that you wake up with soft lips and using Vaseline around your eyes is another great use. This method can smooth wrinkles and make the skin much softer. Vaseline is also extremely effective at removing makeup. ( Tp I x biasa used the vaseline for removing makeup. Selalu pakai baby oil je..unless if I out of baby oil..then I will use Vaseline as a substitute. ) The one I like the most is to used it as a night cream or mixed it together with my favorite baby lotion and rub to all my body before sleep. Help me to sleep well since I like to feel my moist skin to sleap. ( i have the dry skin..so, i need to apply the lotion as frequent as i can. Tp..paling penting sblm tido..kena moist. Otherwise, susah nk tido.) For lips, it also can be a homemade healthy scrub. Mixed the Vaseline with caster sugar that I always took from McD or Sturbucks for free, then apply to your lips as a scrub. You will love the result. If you like, you can also mixed it with the sea salt for body scrub. This will help to moisturizes severe dry skin and prevent the dryness and ashy look.

Hmm.. I have heard of the used of Vaseline as a sexual lubricant. Tp yg ni x pernah try pon.. I also read in a few forum that many people used it for that reason and it save. Okey, lets not talk about it too much. Whoever have tried before can massage me. Next, another common use for Vaseline is for diaper rashes. Diaper rashes on babies can be especially troublesome and a little Vaseline can soothe a fussy baby and create a barrier as well as promote healing of the rash.Beside, it also can be used to massage baby. Mixed the Vaseline with a little bit baby oil and start massage all over their body. Your baby will love it the most.

Finally, Vaseline is used so that people can perform better or protect things. For instance, you can use it when there is gum in your hair. Work it into the hair until the gum slides out. Remove a stuck ring from your finger with a little Vaseline. Prevent hair dye from staining your skin by putting Vaseline along your hairline. Ha...thats a lotsa usage of this small gel. Izzit?? That y I love it too bits.

Ops...not forgotten, it can be used to put a quick shine on your shoes and bags too! just apply a tiny dap of it and rub on the pale and old surface of your handbag or shoes gently. Its makes your week old handbag or shoes look new again. Ngeeeeee ;D

The Golden Rule of problem solving.....

~~~~~~~~~~~

Hye all...I just finished my 2 days training today and I really find it interesting to share with you all here.

Our topic is " Critical Thinking and Problem Solving".. It was very fun and informative. Beside the trainer, the participant are also very participate and we like knowing each other well for very long long time..even it was the very 1st meeting for many of us. Some of them comes from SD industrial, GHO Procument, R&D plantation and CTM. Maybe some of them I ever had bump each other in WSD, since they are working at the same building like me..Okey, that not the point that i want to share. Should stop here before I 'membebel' more..

Hehe..

Do you know..there are many solution for one problems. So the Golden Rule that everyone should have in mind set is... "FIRST SAY CAN, THEN THINK HOW".

It was like..when you having a problem that u think it is impossible to settle off..first thing first to come to your head is to say or think..

" Yes....you can solve this!!" or " Surely i can!!".

By that, u will set your mind and makes your adrenaline hormone to be ready to face the problem gently. ( wooops...better not to used the science term here. Actually I also not really know what is the adrenaline hormone is. Kah kah kah.. )

With the positive mind..then only u can make or decide or think a better solution for that particular problem. Of course, I did learn on several steps to adapt for problem solving, but the first and foremost..u must set your mind into a positive manner, then only your other body parts will interact well with your mind to make it done wisely. What do you think??

It was amazing...we even did a several activities that at first we think it was impossible but later on..it proves that the thing was actually easy to do.. One of the example is to break the wood pencil into two with one finger. I myself with many participant in the class did not believe that we actually manage to break that pencil using our own little cute finger in front of our own eyes. Believe me, I did it and it was a fantastic feeling..Wehoooo!!

So, better not play2 with me. Even using 1 finger I manage to karate and break the pencil. Imagine if I fully utilized all of my fingers.. hahaha..

Then, we also have to solve the impossible questions like :

1. How to make the underwater hair dryer?
2. How to make the solar touch light? ( When u know that the used of touch light is at night.. )
3. How to make the safety life concrete raft? ( by concrete!! howwww?????)
4. How to make the waterproof tea bag?

Do you think you be able to answer all those question? Finally we did!!! even some group give extraordinary logic and futuristic suggestion. That is because the rule.."FIRST SAY CAN, THEN THINK HOW".

Other things that count are like, brainstorming, critical thinking, to be creative, positive and yeda yeda.

Okey..that for now.

Notes : For those who interested to know our suggestion/solution for that questions above, please not hesitate to ask me. See ya!! Left u to think 'bout it.. Daaaaaaa... ;P

Broga Hill in action..

Yuuhoooo.........Hye all, lama kan I x update blog. Da lama x update...so bnyk cerita nk story..the latest story is about our adventure trip to Broga Hill.

Hooaaaaaa...the peak is soo amaizing and fantastic. Think that everybody should try to climb and experience the beautiful scenery there. I'll bet u will love it.It's not a very high hill. Almost everyone can make it to the peak. I see young children, teenagers, young adults and older adults made it without problems.

We start our journey by 4.30am from home. Waiting Kak Azura at nearby shell station as the rest are assemble at funiture stores opposite of Tesco by 5am. From there we ahead to the foothill.

At 6.40am after subuh's prayer ,we started our hike. After a few years of not climbing, I found it difficult to walk fast. In a few minutes Kak Azura stop us as she want to rest up her tired leg. And after a few stop, she ask us to go first as there are many people around..she said she will walk slowly and we promise to wait her at the 1st peak..

It was my husband 1st experience of hill climbing. I must solute him since he has a strong spirit to climb although he has a bit knee prob. He was fine..but not me. On the way to the 1st peak..i was vomiting 2 times. Maybe because i did not took any breakfast and keep drinking the 100plus. So, the moral is, please dont climb with the empty stomach. Hehehe.. We continue our climbing about 30-40minutes, then we can see the first peak. It was so near yet so far.By reach that point, there is no trees anymore. But the surrounding is covers by green grass, and cold wind. It was cool enough and the view make u impatiently want to reach the peak as fast as u can. But, looking at the stairs..Haihh...

Around 7.50am, At long last,we reached the 1st peak.We stop there about half an hour waiting for kak azura. Then we moved to 2nd peak. Moving up to the 2nd peak. We weren't that tired anymore and didn't mind the walk to the 2nd peak. From the there, we could see the 1st peak and it awesome!! We filled our time there by taking picture and enjoy the scenery since everybody are not willing to moved to the other 2 peaks anymore. Haha..By that time, we did not see our group anymore. They are so fast. And they plan to hike till up to Tok Wan Mountain. So that they cannot wait the snail like us. Wehoo..

After all, we had a really really great time there. Me and husband plan to go there next time and finished up all the 4 peaks. ;D anyone wanna join us??
