Happy Ramadhan Al Mubarak...

... to my beloved family, friends, followers and everyone who drops by.

I'm still alive and kicking

and so thankful to Him

for another chance

to grace the month of Barakah...

May Allah bless us all.

Happy Chinese New Year!

Had a little time (to doodle) in hand to wish everyone who celebrates!

Enjoy!

The New Welcome Doodle!

The Ending and The Beginning...

Sigh.

Ramadhan is ending.

How time flies.

As life moves on, some of us are looking forward for a new beginning...

Such as these two love birds...

For all my Muslim blog visitors, let's enjoy the rest of the Holy Month and pray that we'll be chosen to experience the Night of Power... Lailatul Qadr.

InsyaAllah.

Allah says in the Qur'an in Surah Al-Qadr:
"We have indeed revealed this (message) in the Night of Power. And what will explain to thee what the Night of Power is? The Night of Power is better than a thousand months. Therein come down the angels and the spirit by God's permission, on every errand: Peace! This until the rise of Morn." (97:1-5)

I know it has been a while, oh blog...

But you know I'm around... ;)

Lazy Monday...

Well, it's OK to be lazy when you're a baby spider.

Did I tell you about the cake I made for Zain on his 1st Birthday? 

Truth be told, I was super proud of it... 

and the fact that it was the first cake I've ever done in my life...

made it extra special even though ermmm.. I didn't really 'bake' it ;P.

Wanna see how the cake looked like?

Now, the first tier consisted of fresh fruits and the second tier was a steamed banana raisin cake!

I got the recipe from here after surveying quite a number of steamed cake recipes on the net.

It tasted really good and Zain finished it in one go!

Making the cake was an exciting experience for me.

I'm looking forward for many more memorable experiences with Zain in my life :).

Have a sweet Monday...even if you feel a bit lazy, ok?

10 Minute Sketch_Apple

When you're 'full-time' taking care of a baby...
every sleeping time of his...
becomes so precious to you.

Here's one of my precious 10 minutes to be shared with Diana Evan's :)...




Hmmm... I have an idea to use the Apple sketch for my next Calendar Freebie.

Have a nice Wednesday, everyone.

A Boy and A Kite...

Owh... look!
My little boy is flying a little kite...
with his legs crossed!

Hihii... thought of having a little fun with Baby Zain's pic this morning while visiting Creative Every Day blog-- which happens to have "black & white" theme this month :).

Have fun!

Singing Baby

Hihii..

Nothing much.

Just fooling (doodling) around with baby Zain's photo :).

He's just turned 9 mo recently, by the way.

With him getting 'wiser' day by day,
you can't really catch me taking my time doing things

for myself anymore nowadays...

well, not unless he's dozing away.

Salam Maulid Nabi...Freebie :)

Syukur...

Syukur dapat menumpang..

dunia yang diciptakan

buat Nabi Muhammad saw.

Hanging Around...

...while waiting for the NEW year.

Happy 2013, for each and everyone of you who drops by :).

May the NEW year brings more of everything that's good for you 

and your family.

Enjoy!

P/S: Do check out my NEW post at Yartstik, ok?

A Short Visit to Ganu

It's rainy season in the East Coast of Malaysia right now.

There was no escape from it when we went there last weekend.
However, when the rain stopped once in a while... Mr.Bee quickly drove Baby Zain and I to a few of Kuala Terengganu 'Hot Spots' (for us, at least).

Early in the morning, we couldn't see the sun rise because it was so cloudy... but we still wanted to bring Baby Zain to see the beach at Pantai Batu Burok.

Here's the result:

Yup. He slept all the way... tsk tsk tsk.

So, we made our way to a breakfast stall which was in Jalan Panji Alam.
I would say, they have one of the best nasi lemaks and nasi dagangs in Ganu. Yummy2x...

Not even 8am yet customers were already in queue. Yikes!

This used to be my playground...
when I was in the Primary school back in 1980s :)

While we had our breakfast, it rained again... and thanks to Allah by the time we finished, the sky was quite clear and beautiful.

We hopped on the car and decided to go to Marang because I wanted to take some boat pictures for my future painting reference!

When we reached the Marang Jetty, baby Zain fall asleep yet again. Hihii...

 But I had a good time snapping my boats away...

We also stopped by a stall that sold a local delicacy called Akok. 

It was still made the traditional way... and tasted sooooo good!

After that we had a rest at home while outside it rained cats and goats.

I craved for ICT.

You can't go back to Kuala Terengganu without ICT in one of your hi-tea menus!

So, Mr.Bee drove us to Teluk Ketapang for it.

What ICT am I talking about?

It's 'Ikan Celup Tepung'. 

Not only the fishes were dipped in a special recipe flour and fried but you will find a whole lot of other seafoods ie. prawns and squids too!
Of course, keropok lekor was there if you want. 

Burp!

Sorry. 

I was too busy eating until I forgot to take picture of the food.

Plus, baby Zain was sound asleep on my lap while I was eating 'em.

And when you thought there was nothing much in Kuala Terengganu at night, you'll be surprise to see that the real ICT existed there too!

Here at Kampung Cina... or Dataran Shahbandar as they named it now.

As you can see, baby Zain was wide awake by now.
*Sigh... so much of outdoor loving, son.

But baby Zain was such a sport during our short trip. He didn't make much fuss for the long car ride. 

I know you're tired, baby. 
So much for you to learn and see...
each and everyday of your life.
