Hello December!

Hello December.

We meet again. This year, time seems to fly by so fast.

Alex is going to be 10 months in 5 days.

My post baby weight won't seem to go away :(

Hope it's not here to stay. (Shoosh go away please)

Life is getting pretty hectic with work and commitments.

Last weekend was Marina & Syafy's Wedding Reception. 

So hubby and I drove back to Penang without Alex.

Just a quick trip for their wedding.

Met a few friends that I haven't seen for a long time.

It was good to catch up.

So here's a few photos from the last trip home.

A few days before, hubby got my little kiddo his walker to help him walk and now he's enjoying it so much. He can move forward, go backwards and turn around. Such a clever boy.

I am so lucky to have a sporting husband who does everything as I say. Thanks bee although I know sometimes I ask you a lot and make you do silly things. You are the best! So another round of face pampering tonight okay? he he he

Refreshing just before bedtime.

Forced my husband to join me and snap a photo haha. Can't stop laughing!

Lately I've been shopping online for almost anything I can find. Saw this on the table when I came home from work and it's true, getting a package in the mail is like having small joys in life. :) Although we already have a few baby carrier (Boba, Pupsik Studio Pouch Sling and two other organic material baby carrier), I've always wanted to try the one with hip seat. Found it on Groupon with a really good deal and decided to give it a try. Still haven't got the chance to snap a photo with baby on it. Will post up pics soon.

Weekend Love

Saturday

Last weekend was my working weekend. So on Saturday, we did not do much as the weather wasn't that friendly. It was raining, so we decided to stay home and snooze until dinner. Then we went to The Bee, Publika for dinner. I had Chili Prawn Pasta and hubby got himself The Bee Burger. We also ordered nachos. Sorry I did not capture our main course but I got the nachos! Their nachos is the best!

Sunday

Hubby and I have a thing for English Breakfast. So we made a point to actually get up early on Sunday to have brunch in Bangsar. Since we've already tried Antipodean, we chose Marmalade Cafe this time. No surprise, their breakfast was actually good. Both of us had Big Fry Up. Wanted to try their Fatbaby Ice Cream but was too full by the time I'm with my big breakfast. Maybe next time. I love everything about the cafe. The pastel colors, the decorated flowers, the bright and airy space etc. If ever I open a cafe, I would so go for this concept too! :)

After brunch, it started to rain. So, we stopped by to get the yummiest soya ever. (Located in Uptown, Damansara). They have the best soya and taufu fa in town. Yay! When I was pregnant with Alex, I used to crave for this everyday. hehe

So being all sweet without baby Alex for the weekend, look what hubby did.. hehe 

Nak beli soya pun turun berdua walaupun hujan. :P

Okay enough of dating, it's baby time. Fetched baby Alexander from my in-laws' place.

He was asleep when we reached but right after he open his eyes, he was so happy to see us. Then came the sweet smile and a little happy tear wanting me to carry him in my arms.

Oh-the-small-joys! 

We played for a while before giving him his warm bath. And during dinner time, baby was super excited waiting for his aeroplane spoon with yummy homemade porridge.

Baking Sunday.

Last Sunday, while hubby was away for a photography thing, I was so bored at home so I decided to try a recipe that I saw on Pinterest. It was a last minute thing, so nothing extreme. I took out some Hershey's chocolate kisses and a few ingredients to make Oreo and Peanut Butter Brownie Cakes. Just prepare your brownie mix, spread peanut butter on oreos and cover with brownie mix. And it's ready to bake. It's so easy. 

All you need is a couple of ingredients.

1 box brownie mix 

A packet of Oreo

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

Preheat oven 175 for 30 mins before baking.

Line a 12 muffin cup baker with paper liners.

Prepare brownie mix according to package directions. For each cupcake cup spread 1 teaspoon of peanut butter over Oreo cookies.

Place oreo stacks into the cupcake lined muffin cups.

Spoon 2 tablespoons of brownie batter over oreo and let it run down the sides of the cookie.

Bake cookies and brownies for 25-30 minutes, until brownies are cooked through.

Let it cool completely then serve.

I promised my husband I will try to bake this for him one day and tadaa.. he came home smiling after smelling my brownies from outside the house.

Oh small happiness!

If you have left over brownie batter, bake separately in a separate baker tin.

I purposely put in some kisses chocolate coz I have heaps from my last trip. :)
