The Blog

The reason why I created this blog is to talk about my hobby which is baking and also to pour out my frustration with the commuter service here and my experience taking commuter everyday to and fro work. How people's altitude and behaviour in and outside the station. I will be writing more about this and also the people I met while waiting for train is another interesting part. 

Medusa

We received a request last week from a lady to make a cake topper. She wants something that is unusual. After much thought and consulting with my sister. We come up with Medusa. For some reason both my sis and I adores Medusa. So we tried making her, off course my way..We found a lot of flaws but the lady loves it. Hmm..I will be doing this again soon but with a twist..Here is my version of Medusa..

Yin & Yang Cake

Made this for a dual celebration. Heaven and Earth, the cake speaks by itself.

Bubbly Cupcakes

Received a request for Vanilla Butter Cake for a baby girls's naming ceremony.

Made this cake for a 21st year old birthday girl.    

Feeling great

I am neither a saint nor a sinner. But I am feeling great, today I helped a blind man to walk across. I am a person who always mind my work and not involve in others. When ever I am down, I will talk to my little nephews and that will make my day. All my little nephew will say is "I am busy watching cartoon, you call me later ok". And that word with his cute voice will give me a good feeling. I love all those thing my little nephew does.

Father's day celebration

We celebrated father's day for my bro. For celebration, I baked Dulce De Leche cake. The cake taste so good and yummy but not sure what went wrong, the cake taste too sweet. Goodness..I will definitely bake this again but will reduce the dulce de leche and the sugar off course.

To kill my frustration after hearing and boredom

I started to learn technique of baking and sugar craft since Sept 2009. I receive an order for cupcakes for a mini wedding anniversary sometime next month so I started to look for a simple roses,,All I can find is roses that uses, petal cutter from small to big, calyx, florist wire tape and other. So I come up with something simple and easy to do. All you need is a container of water, brush, small rolling pin, round cutter and fondant of your choice of colour.

First you need to take a small amount of fondant as below.

Then roll is like a small sausage and flatten using rolling pin as below.

And then roll the flatten fondant like this.

Now you need to roll your fondant and use the round cutter. You may need 5 rounds.

Take the rounds and fold it around the roll fondant (Image 5) overlapping each other. Lightly pinch the petals and fold it.

I will post a video on how to do simple fondant rose soon.

My Dad

Happy Father's day to my beloved dad. I didn't appreciate him when he was alive and now I missed him the most. My dad pst away due to renal complication in 2004. we have to struggle between home and work and hospital. My dad left us a house with some money in the bank. I didn't know that writing a will will cause a lot of headache after someone pass away. The house which belongs to my father was under his name and I have to go through Amanah Raya to change the name from my dad to my mum. Little did I know the problem we are about to face. As per Malaysian Law Distribution Act 1958. My grand father who passed away after my dad entitled for 1/4 of the house and since he is dead, his other children will inherit it. Where is the logic. The house belongs to my father and rightfully we the children should get or at least my mum should get it but why my father's siblings. I just don't understand. WHY WHY WHY....Why do I need to give them...My dad pay for the house through hard earning so why someone who never care for my dad should get it..I am so frustrated that I ask them to hold on and not to proceed further. I hate the law here.

Dulce De Leche

I made Dulce De Leche last night...actually I tried and I hate the taste..it  tastes more like condensed milk rather than caramel milk...Not sure where did I go wrong. I boil 2 can of condensed milk in a pressure cooker for about 45 minutes and waiting until the next morning to open can only to find the content is not as thick and creamy as I saw in some blogs. So I pour the content in a microwavable container and microwave and stirred every 30 second and it did turn into dark and cream texture but taste wise,hmmm not so good...still condensed milk taste.....hmmmm

Colleague from HELL

I was a PA before, life being a PA was so cool...you know everyone kinda look up to you and try to be good. That kind of nice..but when your company stop loving, you are out of that place. That happens to me and being jobless is really pain with so much debt to pay..I struggle a lot. Finally I end in a well known company. But prior to joining that company, I have to go thru some many procedures and background check..and to hear the word, you are in take more than a month..Working there is really fun, you are in charge of the office..I am a receptionist with a recep pay but doing an office managers job..Life was good till a lady by the name of Delia join the company in January 11. She was so nice and kind at first. Advising me what I should be eating, what I should not and what vitamin I should take and caring too until I go on a day leave and my back up was slightly late to work. She called up my manager and started yelling at him without knowing that my manager is a screwed up man as well..I went back to work the next day and she scream and shouted at me since she can't do it to my manager..I was a hot tempered person but I just kept quiet..feeling disgust and sick of that woman..and from then on she started to pick on me for the littlest thing ever...she always claims that she is rich and wanted to resign since she is not hoping for the salary but till todate, she is still here.. I am trying all my level best to satisfy this woman but she is so sick that everyone in the office started calling her "crazy"..we only have about 8 pax and she is the one with loose not..I really hope God will help with this devil...

For one more day

I am a lot of reading lately. Not anything but the kill the boredom while on train. While I was reading "For One More Day" by Mitch Albom.. I start to think back and wish God could grant me a day, full day to spent with my dad. I did not appreciate my dad when he was alive and till end of his life..I always have this guilty feeling in me that will be there forever..I wish I be nice to my dad knowing that he will leave us all forever..While I was feeling sad I called a special person and ask him who would be the person he'll spend if God grant him a day and he says his dad, He didn't have the chance to grew up with his dad. His dad passed away when he was 6 years old. And the I start to realise what a bad daughter I am..I can feel my father's hurt and agony now though i know he is watching over me all the time. It's too late to apologise.

It has been quite sometime now...I haven't been blogging for days. I will post more videos and write more abt my trip to and fro work by train..Different ppl with different chracterics (can't remember how to spell this word). Well sign of aging. Not sure why I started to blog probably I need a place to pour my heart out. My travelling really makes me sick anyway...will post some videos tomorrow

my life on train and my nephews cake

God.....all my life I never take any public transport..I hate it in fact but now I have to..I started to commute since mid August 2010..it was during the puasa time and everything is so smooth. The train arrived on time and there's no crowd in KL Sentral. I feel blessed and started to fell in love with public transportation. for about 1/2 months I was happy, I get to sit immediately I got into train and it is soooooo nice till after Raya..thing turn upside down..I hate to feel the stir in my stomach..the train never arrive on time and the crowd makes me sick..Ok..I'll continue my life on train tomorrow and for now is another cake which I bake for my both nephews.

And also this. Design from some blogger, I can't recall the name.

Well, today I am going to talk about my work. I am a facility coordinator cum receptionist. My work kind of nice but dealing with some PA from other department really make me mad but I can't do much. I got this job after 6 months being jobless. I was so worried then that I may end up being jobless so I grab the opportunity to work as a receptionist. At first I love this job but then I had to deal with some people that make me really mad. Anyway, whenever I am upset and really got mad, I will bake and this time I show my anger (positive side off course in baking cake).

This is my first time blogging. I always thought that blogging is a waste of time. And now here me trying to blog and I don't know what to blog. Well there'll certainly some thing to blog about when I go along. Lets start with myself. I am 37 years of age and life is getting bored that lead me to blogging. I spend most of my time with my nephews and now they are growing up and concentrating on their studies. Now I know the reason why some ladies got married before their 20's. I am attached to a MNC as a facility coordinator. Kind of boring. Mum always remind me to love my job..but me...hmmm...
