I am excited to witness a wedding in my family in 30 days. The last wedding we had was 5 years back. And I missed 2 family weddings while we were overseas.
My family is always EXCITED about things. We'll be excited about kenduris, rayas or other events that involve family matters.
I am writing today to share my view about gift giving. Some people think of gift giving as a lame idea, but to me, it's a sign of your love. The smallest gift from one person opens the heart of the other. I'd feel touched, appreciated and get the feel of much love getting a gift from someone.
Since Nina is getting married to Shafiq soon, here are some GREAT ideas what we can give this young (???) couple.
If Nina can tell us what she wants...we'll gladly get something PRACTICAL for their use at home.
The bride likes painting....so perhaps you can get her a GOOD painting...not the lowya one...
This is very IMPORTANT....a dinnerset
The secret to a man's heart is through your cooking. Give them these pots...
Pans Pans Pans
And unique bowls....UNIQUE ok
Tea anyone??
or... a set of drinking glass (cikai la...unless you get crystal glass)
Knife set would be a great idea....
Cutleries?? Not from Langkawi I hope. Go for 18/10 stainless steel
Or the Spice Rack....not Spice Girls
Anyone for Tupperware for storing?
Give them a wall clock?
Or settled for a bed sheet?
On some days, the couple might want a cold shake...give them a blender?
I wish for this...an oven! Darling, can I have this please....on our Annivesary???
Settled for these flasks???
This is such a lovely present. The mini processor. I have this and it's wonderful!!!
Yup...the toaster with a more feminine touch....
If you are on a tight budget, perhaps you can give a DIY frame?
On some nights, they may want a romantic scene...give them the power of lightings
No excuses for not cooking!!! I need this too! A microwave oven!
Mirrors mirrors on the wall.....
This one is MINE!!!!! Kitchen Aid!
The stand fan is another great gift idea!
A retro table fan that the couple can take it with them.
What do you know about coffee?? Have you tried maybe one, two, three of these? Well, what's your favourite? Some people go for mocha for the coffee and chocolate flavour, but I'd go for the more coffee flavour.
15th April~ Nasri celebrated his 19th birthday. We didn't have a proper celebration as he's away in IIUM. Well we have to postpone the celebration when he returns. I told hubby to get Nasri a "good" watch. I chose Titus and ellesse but he said both choices did not suit Nasri's age. We settled for a FCUK watch which cost us around MYR300 after discount. Hope you like the birthday present, son...!!!
It was kind of my hubby to prepare dinner for us. He served us a plate of wedges but my kids complained that the wedges tasted funny. I looked at the plate and said, "ah...dad used cheddar and it's not melted the way it should be".
"No, it really tastes odd!"
I took a bite. "Eh, why sweet??"
"Someone put white chocolate in the same cheese container...I didn't know it was white chocolate! I grated both onto the wedges...."
Well, the smart someone had to be me....!!! (Gulp)
I wish our wedges would look and taste this good.....
I have 2 book projects in mind for this year. Why do I want to write books? This image answers my 'burning quest' to start writing.
One thing for sure, you will never get RICH writing a book, but you will definitely enrich the minds of your readers! A book changes life, you may take years to write one, but one may take only an hour to read your writings...
Well, speaking of these two books, I am planning to compile one book of life experiences of women who have had some kind of hardships? challenges? while going into some transitions in their lives. I have approached a few people who have shown some interest in contributing their writings into this book that hopes to inspire others. The other thought will be academic in nature. I will share with you once this project is confirmed.
Legoland will be opening in Johor soon, and get your promotional tickets at a discounted price before 16th April 2012! (I am not a spokeperson for Legoland...just doing this for free!!!) Check out Legoland's map!
With Legoland located right here in the heart of Johor, we longer need to cross the border to get to the Universal Studio. I am pretty sure the rides and games are similar to those in USS but with Legos themes. I guess the rides would be less extreme compared to other theme parks.
The first Legoland was opened in 1968 near Billund, Denmark. Other parks are found all around the world, in California, Windsor, Florida while Legoland Nusajaya will be the first theme park of its kind open in Asia.
Well, they have started selling tickets to enter the theme park at a discounted rate! Well you can always buy your tickets now, and plan your holidays later.....Do check out the rates at Legoland Website
I am thrilled...the next time you come visiting us, at least I know where to take you....
Why don't you get a feel of Legoland by watching this video?
