happy birthday sweetheart

today, 30th july 2010, is the 34th birthday of someone very special to my heart. he's my best friend, the one that i always turn to for better or for worse. he's the father of my 3 wonderful gifts from Allah, the one that my children respect & admire. he's my azizi, the one that continuously pours his attention, love & affection to my children and i.


i made some cupcakes for his birthday. well, actually he's not a cake-eater, he just doesn't like cakes. but for the sake of showing his appreciation to my effort, he ate 1, the one that has his name on it. thank you my dear..

i also ordered carrot walnut cupcakes from a bakery near ozana, farissha bakery. the cuppies are delicious! we celebrated his bday at our office. thanx to my dear siblings and staffs that joined the micro party.. to my beloved other half, happy b'day & may Allah bless us with more & more love and happiness..

cupcakes

i love cupcakes (well, who doesn't??) & it's an 'in' thing now. it's suitable for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and many many other occasions. i normally order them from full time cupcakes makers for my kids' b'days. until recently, i felt like i wanna try bake them myself. so i baked cuppies and muffins. then i thot that i should try decorate them myself, juz for fun. and i so enjoyed it!! so this is my first attempt....

~ ta-daaa...... ~

well for a first timer in cupcakes decorating, i consider myself... 6/10. (perasan!!! hahahah...).
by the way, thanks to the sophisticated world of IT, i learnt to make the butter cream from you-tube. <3

my little dimples

my little fella here has grown bigger and bigger & he's really huggable.
hugging him gives a real pleasure to me.
i love my baby!!

my little apple

terlambat nak cerita pasal my little apple's bday. actually bday dia 11 july haritu. dah besar dah dak haziq.. we celebrated his bday on the 10th at my parents' house. ordered cupcakes from a friend in melaka. last minit order, nasib baik ada yg sanggup nak buat. on his bday, bawak dia gi main2 kat arcade.


on monday, bwk cupcakes pegi school & nyanyi2 with his frens. he was so happy bcoz papa bought a toycar for him, a miniature skyline. and my fren yang buat cupcakes tu prezen kan dia a big remote control car.. punya lah kembang kuncup dak haziq dapat prezen tu!

bali

sunday lepas me & my team members pergi bali. stayed at 14 roses hotel legian kuta for 3 nights. bali sememangnya satu tempat yg sgt sesuai utk bersantai, relax, honeymoon & snap wonderful pictures.

our activity everyday full from morning sampai malam. we all pergi uluwatu temple, jimbaran beach, tgk barong & keris dance, batik factory, kintamani volcano, tanah lot & yang paling luarbiasa yg aku buat adalah scuba diving kat tanjong benoa nusa dua. satu experience baru yg aku tak pernah terpikir pun nak try sebelum ni. best gile rupanya, tapi at first takut gila, macam nak lemas pun ada, almaklumlah baru first time mencuba...

bali is an amazing island.. buildings dia banyak yg nampak ancient. semua low rise, not more than 4 storeys. byk temples, arca2 & patung2 yg agak scary & dewa dewi kinda stuffs. 90% of bali population are hindus. food yang halal is limited. banyak tourist mat saleh kat situ. the beach takde lah cantik & bersih sangat. tapi ada a lot of water activities. overall, i love bali..
