Celebrating teacher's day with siblings

It was teacher's day few hours ago....Happy belated teachers day to all teachers in Brunei.  Actually the teacher's day fall every year on 23rd september since this year it was felt during Syawal therefore it was postponed to 5th November.  This year theme is "Guru berkualiti teras kecemerlangan pendidikan' which means Quality Teachers are the heart of Excellent Education.

I invited my family to my house for dinner.  I cooked and served them special 'soto' ( noodles beef soup) just now to celebrate the teacher's but ..since I was too excited and busy with my siblings and nieces, I forgot to take some snaps of my special 'soto'.  I baked cheese cake too for my sisters and cupcakes for kids. This is my first trial to make cupcakes.  I make cheese cream to decorate the top of the cake and sprinkled them with coloring sprinkles.  The decoration looked not really nice but I'm happy my kids loved it...and they want me to make another cupcakes again...emmm so I have to googled the utube to find the best cupcake butter cream recipe....

Happy teacher's day for you my 2nd sister Haslinah and to my 6th sister.....

My first trial making cupcakes.

Breakfast with waffle

My kids really love waffle and pan cake.  This morning I served them 8 pieces of waffles spread with nutella.  I like to have it with butter and honey or maple syrup....My hubby likes my wafle too but I'm still not satisfy with my waffle recipe.  I'm looking for the best one that make the waffle spongy and yummy.  Dear bloggers if you have any please do share with me....I know you have the best one.  What about you rosma..You don't mind sharing with me..hehehehe

This event was happened last week...a special treat from my 8th sister, Marni.  Wow... three big dishes of crabs with different taste each were served for us at the city stalls in Bandar Seri Begawan.  That night there were lots of  people came to these stalls. It might be because of the payday..or the food is good. Do you know? This is my first time to have lunch at this place.  Before I was not really interested eating at this place.  I don't know why..but because of my sister offered us to have lunch here so at last I must go and try the seafood.  Yeah yummy..not bad...the crabs were delicious and tasty.  I think you better try the food there..

Happy 8th birthday..Naqib

Yesterday the 28th Oct was my son's birthday.  I didn't celebrate it at home...I knew he would missed his daddy.  My hubby is not around until this Saturday...oh so sad.  Since Naqib's exam was over so I decided to celebrate it with his friends at school during break time.  I didn't do the cooking because I have no time to prepare the food for his birthday party early in the morning and I'm working too.  So I just ordered everything from the Ideal Fastfood.

Naqib's choice - Bumble bee

Naqib looked shy...but too happy

Happy birthday to you..happy Birthday to Naqib

Invitation to Pulau Pakuan with friends..!!!!

This weekend I was attending an outing function organised by Bakti Association at Pulau Pakuan Tanjung Bunut in Brunei-Muara district.  Actually its not a real island..it is just a name for a place where 'this person' planted local fruits and made fish ponds.  At first I didn't know where this faked island is situated.  Unbelievable..this was my first trip to this area and you know what it just took 20minutes to arrive at this island from my house..Why  I didn't know this place? Shame of me..hehehehe
