Filler Activities: Hosting and Meeting Friends

One wedding, two reunion and one hosting.

Marin's borhter was getting married at the Felda D'Saji. Went with F1tr1, and we'll meet the rest there.


This was the first time wearing the Baju melayu I made.. woo hoo..


We arrived at 8pm and left around 8.30pm. Eat, met her parents, met the brides, and left..


The available bachelors. 3 doctors (phd), one architect, one risk evaluator, and one kuli pecacai(moi) Oh I also found out that my button wont stay. Darn it..
=========================================


When I was in Amsterdam, Jan was kind enough to brought me around and feed me babi ketjap with fabolous food. So when I found out that her brother's was in this region, I offered my place.


Koen and Petah was here for about a week. They went to Malacca and Singapore in between.


Fresh fruit for breakfast.


Breakfast is served.


Koen n Petah in Putrajaya.


So, basically I borught them around Putrajaya, KLCC< Pavilion, KL tower, bird park, Batu Caves, IKEA.




And bukit bintang and Genting. They've been to Bangkok, Bali and Australia previously.


So KL was their last pit stop before heading home for Christmas.
=========================================


Next, phew, what a busy month, Zoow was back in town. So I decided to have a little reunion with the others who worked nearby.


Managed to catch Hajar and Linda. The rst was not interested :(... hihihihi, no lah, I specifically keep it small (max5) so that its easy to plan.


Disregard the fat model in this pic.. hihihih


Linda was talking abt cookie monster..


She was only in town briefly, and her schedule was tight. Glad to be able to meet her twice! and introduced her the durian chocolate cake. woo hoo... Till we meet you again Zoow.
=========================================


Lastly and recently, Lusi's sister was in town.


I met her in Melbourne last time, so when she's in town for vacation, I'd become the secondary tourist guide.


So, same routine.. KLCC-Pavilion, Bt caves.


Dinner in BB


But this time I brought her to the temples. She wanted to pray, so I sent her to about 5 temples around KL.


Also I met her friend here. Turned out he was my junior in IU. What a small world.

Filler Activities: Food and More Foods


This is the compilations of the food socialising at my place. The first gathering was for double celebrations - M4e/4sun first born + Ni$$a farewell.


My pathetic attempt to make black pepper sauce.


Hors d'œuvre- calmar et champignon frits in tartare sauce


Soup of the day - cream of mushroom.


Main course - beef bacon, grilled lamb & sunny side up egg in pain de campagne


Dessert - tarte de fraise and honey glazed peaches


Much assemblies required.


Nom nom nom


Hubby n wife


Not hubby n wife.


Leftover meat for lunch was salad for dinner. hihihihi

==========================================


And this was for the new year's feast. Cath, Elin, Marul, Hail, Dims, Hasne, Elina + son, and I.. hmm I thought there were 10 people that day.. must be satan...


One whole grilled turkey, vegiies, stuffing, Yorkshire pudding


Just main course. No entree, no soup.


Desserts. Cuppies and cherry tarts.


Of course we couldnt finished them all. I gave almost all the leftovers for Marul and only keep some for the sandwich tomorrow.


Pre new year sandwich, before I catch the flight to Saigon (and had lunch on the plane, and another lunch and dinner at zee's) *barf*

Bday 1: C-Club


Was asked to plan an event for my beloved friend, Che Yan. Arghhh stress.. believe me, I'm so bad at planning (not to mention king of procrastinate as well).

So after shortlisted possible venues, she choose 2 final candidates:
1) Red box
2) C Club

both at the Pavilion. Knowing how much I hate karaoke, I deliberately sabotage the idea of the red box (mampos kalau dia baca blog ni..kikiki), therefore off we went to C Club for planning, budgeting, food tasting, etc.


The food there was such a letdown, but Yan loved the place! Who am I to convince her otherwise, and going to red box is a big no-no. Reluctantly we agreed to have it here :p


Having it inside is not even an option, we had to tone down, so yeah, thats not gonna happen! Who ever heard about sombre birthday celebration!


So off we went, outside, open air.. the whole section all for ourself, plus free belly dancing performance next door.. And it was pretty cool(not hot and humid) that night.. perfect!


Last minute cake, the Club called and said they dont provide In house cake.. whatever that is...


After maghrib the guests started the come, and the feast began.


Minus Zee. Wished she was here though.. two hysterical ladies surely would brought the house down... literally!


Le menu for that night..


One busied cam-whoring, the other with Facebook! Grrrrrr....


The finger food, while waiting for the guests to arrive.


The soup. Shellfish bisque. If you asked me, it tasted like chicken feeds (dedak ayam).


Le beautiful crowd


My main course. Grilled sirloin steak with mashed potato, sautéed spinach and porcini glaze.


Errr.. that cake was meant to be shared!


Hear ye hear ye! Im 21 this year! Like yeah right :p
