Bubble Love

What’s with the title? Bubble love? *Sigh…seriously I don’t really know where to start my story. Last week, during my last day at my parents’ house (with anak2 and husband) , I was busy at the main hall doing my work and I just let my husband handle the kids alone (shouldn’t do that again), since I got like tonnes of work to do. Yes tonnes of work , I’m not kidding and I was like mengelupur nk siapkan semua kerja.

Inilah dia bahan bukti kes tuang shampoo sampai habis sebotol. Seriously I don’t know to laugh or to cry

Suddenly I heard Ichiro crying and he ran to me. I didn’t expect anything bad happen since dia mmg selalu gitu pon. Drama king budak sorang tu. Huhu. My husband face was pretty tight. Ichiro mengadu to me yg daddy scold him. Husband still with his tight face told me that Ichiro pour the whole bottle of my new shampoo (baru 2 kali guna sob sob) into the tub and he was playing happily with the bubble…hence the title “bubble love” He sure love the bubble so much. It was our mistake too, Ichiro has been asking for bubble quite a number of times already. We do keep about 6 big bottles of bubble for him to play, it just that the battery operated bubble factory machine can’t be use anymore, so we don’t have an instrument to blow the bubble with.

Sebenarnya can always find something else to use as a bubble wand, dulu masa kecil my mom tak nak bazirkan duit beli kan I bubble2 ni, yg dulu jual dalam botol pink merah jambu. So, I really want to play.. you know. I pun suka bubble gak. So, what I did, I ambil pemegang span kapur kasut, siapa dulu2 rajin sapu kapur kt kasut, mesti tahu yg kapur kasut jenis ada span yg celup2 pastu sapu kt kasut (bukan jenis yg roller tau) . Jadi I took the sponge holder, I threw away the sponge, so tinggal just the holder and lubang tempat span tu diselitkan. Jadi, I celup holder tu dalam air sabun (luckily zaman dulu punya sabun boleh kuar bubble, if not sure I kecewa) and I tiup. Then keluarlah bubble comel. I was sooo happy and I never asked my mom to buy me bubble lagi lepas tu

Kalau ada sesiapa berminat nk cuba shampoo yg sangat best ni, way much better dari brand Body Shop and harga pon lagi best rasanya especially time promo, boleh lah order from me . Boleh message or contact me by filling up the contact form. Harga shampoo ni if I’ve not mistaken is around RM16-RM17 this month (member price). Retail tk sure, kalau berminat I can check the price. Just message me dulu ok.

Ok in Ichiro case, I was too busy with lots of things in my mind , so mcm malas nk gi punggah2 benda kt dapur nk cari yg boleh jadi peniup bubble. But then my kemalasan tu eventually has taken its toll on me, as Ichiro tuang seluruh isi shampoo into the tub, I baru guna 2 kali and I really love the shampoo! It smells good, bau orange & grapefruit and it’s a natural (not 100% natural) shampoo, without paraben, mineral oils and other harmful chemicals and it really works to soften my rambut yg keras mcm dawai ni. The moment I saw the tub full with bubble, my jaw dropped.

I baru pakai 2 kali….2 kali jer tau. Waaaaaaaaaa. I felt like tearing my hair out. Like seriously.

Ichirooooooooooooo.

p/s: siapa yg pernah alami cam ni sila join tarik rambut ramai2 and like this post. tsk tsk.

Be Creative with Old Tennis Ball

I was supposed to update my blog yesterday regarding something that really put me in “tearing my hair out” situation (was trying to keep calm when it happens, but surely I need to vent it out) But that’s ok, I’ll write about it tomorrow. Today is Tuesday, time to be creative!

Do you have any family members that love tennis? What I meant by love, does also includes playing the sport ya and not just watching Federer and Nadal on TV. So, if they are playing the sport…I bet for sure there will be at least one or two old tennis ball being forgotten and unused in the house. So! What to do with this ball? Before your 4 year old toddler (read Ichiro) start throwing the poor little ball around, you better do something with it.

Tennis ball as envelope holder, pen holder, key and bottle holder and many more. Brilliant and not to forget cute too. You may need a very sharp knife to cut the ball though.

Here a few ideas for you for a start. I believe if we let our creative juice to possess (yes possess, like naik hantu mcm tu) our being, we can create many wonderful things. I just wondering, is that true that being creative is a gift from god? and only selected people would have it? Or was it the ability of your mind and thinking that blocking you from being a creative person? Creative is the way you think. I rasa semua org diberikan otak yang boleh berfikir, kalau kita rajin berfikir diluar kebiasaan, jadilah kita org yg kreatif. Cuma nak dengan tak nak jer

Ok, got to stop, hardly can open my eyes now. Need my power sleep. By the way, Telekung Fatema new stock sudah update di blog Nilam Boutique KL, boleh tengok dan order secepat mungkin kalau berminat sbb stock seperti biasa limited. Mesti ramai cakap, apasal la buat sikit2? Hmm banyak faktor sebenarnya. Nnt I’ll write in another entry ok. Now, really need to sleep. Bye buddies.

p/s: am revamping my blog, expect 360 degree change soon.

Telekung Berwarna Rabiah

Last week I ada update Nilam fan page dan juga Nilam Boutique blog utk collection coloured “prayer robe” / telekung berwarna yg terbaru iaitu Telekung Rabiah.

Telekung ni menggunakan fabric jersey yg sama seperti Telekung Fatema, cuma kemasan muka dan jenis renda adalah berbeza. Kemasan dan bentuk bukaan muka adalah seperti tudung biasa, jadi utk sesetengah orang pemakaian inner adalah diperlukan terutama yg jenis anak rambut melata atas dahi (macam I huhu). Tetapi dgn bentuk muka yg muncung ini, ia amat sesuai dipakai seperti mini telekung dan dipadankan dengan jubah.

Untuk order dan baca info pasal telekung berwarna Rabiah ni, boleh ke blog Nilam Boutique KL ada entry khas utk Telekung Rabiah.

Renda yg digunakan adalah renda ala french lace dan agak exclusive. Renda dijahit pada fabric dan bukan dilekat jadi lebih tahan lama. Sgt sesuai dijadikan hantaran, atau kegunaan sendiri di rumah atau utk solat di mana jua. Jika hati kita ikhlas utk solat, insyallah tk kiralah warna apa pon telekungnya, kita tkkan risau berasa ujub atau bangga diri. Jadi marilah beli telekung berwarna / “coloured prayer robe” keluaran Nilam Boutique KL I terima international orders juga ok, jadi buyer dari Brunei, Indonesia, Australia and etc , do not hesitate to contact me for shipping quotation ok.

p/s: kebanyakkan dah sold out, tapi kalau berminat just contact jer I dulu, sbb some colours fabric masih available so boleh jahit yg baru, cuma kene tunggu la tailor I jahit dulu ok. Dah jahit boleh pos.

Reason, WHY you should ditch NetworkedBlogs

Do you guys know NetworkedBlogs? To non-blogger, you might have no idea what is NetworkedBlogs la kan? But to hardcore blogger, NetworkedBlogs is like a life saver to them since it is an application that help them to post new blog  updates to the most famous social network site “Facebook” automatically. It’s quite convenient for those who has many blogs, as they can strike one task out already. NetworkedBlogs can automatically publish new update without a need to type in the link manually multiple times for different blog entries.

I used the application for all my blogs (including Nilam Boutique KL and Lonia| the sweet tooth fairy) before. But after I’ve discovered the trick that NetworkedBlogs is playing recently, without wasting any time, I’d straight away deleted the application. Do you want to know why? Kenapa I delete tanpa fikir panjang?

It is because NetworkedBlogs get all the traffics while we bloggers do the hard work. Got it??

Ok, it works like this, when NetworkedBlogs publish blog new updates to Facebook, the application will submit a link to our wall. The link is no doubt is our blog link “BUT” with a twist. The link actually has been redirect to NetworkedBlogs website, meaning, visitor will read my blog in NetworkedBlogs website, hence NetworkedBlogs get the traffics while I get nothing albeit I’m the one who penat2 update my blog. Yg terkangkang2 update blog is me, but orang lain yg dapat bayaran. Yeah something like that.

Bagi kiteorg yg ada blog/website we know how important traffics and ranks are. Bila banyak traffic/visitors, blog atau web kita akan rank better in google search page. Jadinya if we are trying to sell something on our blog or website, it is easier for potential customers to find us. So, that’s why traffic/visitor is very very important.

It really upset me when I got to know that NetworkedBlogs try to steal my traffics just like that. So say NO to NetworkedBlogs, but if you don’t mind about traffics and ranks, this application is truly a life saver.

How to close plastic bag using recycle bottle cap

Here comes Tuesday, Tuesday is creative day for this blog since last week. Ehe. I find this thing interesting especially for housewives like us who has had to endure a great pain whenever we want to keep leftover food in the fridge. That task require a lot of patient and passion. Hahah. If not menyampah betul nk simpan baki makanan.

Plastic box container like Tupperware consume too much space in the fridge and it need to be wash after use. Alternately, keeping the food in a plastic bag is lot easier except that you need to go through the hassle to close the plastic bag using string or rubber band. Same problem occur during opening the plastic bag. Need to remove the rubber band or un-tie the string. By the time the job is done, tangan dah sememeh dgn kuah kari bagai.

Now, there is an easy way to do the task and not to mention more practical and clean. Next time if you wanna throw away empty mineral water, remember to cut the top part (the bottle neck) and keep it together with the cap. It can be use to close a plastic bag like shown in the picture! Senang kan?

If you need to keep something large in size in the bag just get large size bottle top. Kalau nk simpan kuah2 ok la ni. Kalau nk simpan lauk ayam yg still ada ayam, tu kene amik botol kuih raya yg warna merah penutup dia tu, yg besar sket tu. Ha yg tu leh guna rasanya. Or ada idea lain yg lebih bagus? Utk simpan barang2 yg bersaiz besar? Cam sup gearbox ke haha.

Guna plastic bag pon not good to our earth, ada idea lain utk ganti plastic bag? or maybe guna plastic bag yg degradable ok kot eh?
