Coca-Cola Braised Chicken

From the picture, it looks like a normal braised chicken. I was actually a bit surprise when read that this was cook with Coca-Cola! With some mummies who has experienced to cook and eat before they are highly recommended it. Of cause with the simple and easy to cook recipe, it looks really convincing to me to taste it very soon.

Last 2 weeks, with the recipe from here and here, I put up my first try of cooking this Coke chicken. It really looks so delicious when it cooks. The taste is like sweet soya sauce and I couldn't really get the taste of Coke. The meat is so tender and the sauce blend in quite well too. Terry and me can take it quite well, but the boy found the taste a bit boring to him and he began to eat slower and slower. For daddy, he found the taste is weird.

It is too sweet for his liking and the funny taste. Normally he'll not comment on my cooking as long as edible, but this is the first time he said this is not a delicious dish. I don't think I will cook this for 2nd time. It is not-laku for us.

The Lei Cha Meal

Ya, I got to tried that out, this Lei Cha delivery meal was my dinner last night. Since hubby was not eating, I was lazy to cook up some dishes too for 2 of us. Just call up for this delivery will do. I placed my order around 3.30pm and they delivered to me at 6.10pm. The rice and ingredients are still hot when I receiving it.

For a vege and soup lover, I heart this a lot at anytime. Somemore I'm in the midst of watching my diet now, this Lei Cha simply suit me the best. Overall the taste not bad, acceptable and the portion is big too.

This is how the set looks like. The soup base they pack in a paste form and you just need to add hot water to dilute the paste into the bowl given. The soup taste just right to goes with the rice.

Ah Nyok Lei Cha - RM6 per set with FOC delivery. I think they are still quite new around the town, do remember the check the delivery coverage area and you can do online ordering too.

Meal Delivery

I have been taking 10 months long those food delivery for lunch, I can say there are acceptable only la, nothing to shout about. After all it is still home-cook based, I just want to save the hassle for going out and eating out.

Remember last year when the petrol price hiking, my mailbox suddenly got lots of those pizza delivery and home-cook delivery brocherus and flyers. Basically for home-cook delivery, all are about the same, 2-3 dishes plus 1 soup or no soup and w/out rice. The only different is price per pax. The more persons you order the more cheaper. Some they even have weekly menu which let you choose from vege to meat.

Among all those, the unusual one is the food-court also having delivery service for hawker foods like tai chao or chinese cook dishes. I never try these before and I think is rather expansive with delivery charge depends on area. Another one Iranian food delivery which happen within my apartment only. And, few days ago I got this - Lei Cha delivery.


RM6 per set with free delivery. Stated order and delivery time too.

This really sounds new to me, traditional Hakka food also up for delivery service. I'm a big fan to Lei Cha, hope can try out this one day and the price is quite reasonable too. Looks like the meal delivery service are expanding to different varieties of food and many are quite pro now with website.

Thomas Collection I

I also follow the crazy of Thomas like Terry does. I'm the same excited when I saw Thomas stuff everywhere. Last week, during our shopping, Terry saw a baby stroller hanging a Thomas shoulder bag and a backpack. He was so excited, keep pulling me to follow the stroller and even tried to pull my hand to get the bag for him. LOL! He giggled and pointing at it when goes near the bag. Indeed, really, the bags are nice and I almost wanted to ask the lady where she got it, but I didn't la. Guess it not sell here also.

Continuous from the last collection, below are some add on Thomas items. Saw some cutlery from 100 Yen shop sometimes ago.

Got him the bowl, spoon, fork and water tumbler. The chopstick was souvenir from Mama PL during her trip to Japan.

This is worth buying...
I got this from a road side stall near OUG wet market - RM32. The quality was quite good, the whole bag is fully padded. It was not so an original design from UK (it also claimed got license, but from Hong Kong, Made in China). Well, as long as the boy likes it I will make it for him. Oh boy, with a school bag carried on his back, he really looks like a schooling kid already..well that will be soon.

Next, RM10 for 3 stickers & coloring book.
Out of 3 books, I got him 2 Thomas one. The 1st one already fully doodle and koyak. Another one for spare. He loves those stickers and sticking everywhere - on his colour pencil box, toy mirror, wall and his body.

And lastly in this batch of collection, Thomas Matching Numbers set - his birthday present from Mummy Moon. The boy just started to get the idea how to play with it, but most of the time those cards scattered around the place and he is more interested in keeping those cards back to the box when I start cleaning.

There are lots more Thomas items in the shopping mall, means there are more to buy. I hope I'm not getting too much for him and started to get spoil.

For the sake of

........ looking good and fit

........ stop buying large sizes clothes

........ stop complaining I'm fat, I'm fat!

........ admiring nice dress but couldn't fit

........ wearing the old frame top, pant and dresses

........ bulging tummy causing lots of guesses whether I'm preggie

I DECIDED TO....
Eat salad as breakfast for at least 3 times a week and less meaty on daily meal. The salad ingredients are Australia lettuce, purple cabbage, Acerola cherry, cherry tomato, gold kiwi and hard boil egg topped with coleslaw dressing.

AND,
For the past month, I'm have been start taking Tummy Trim drink too for the purpose of colon cleansing and loss fat. So far the result quite ok, but it still not achieve the optimum weight and tummy size I wish.

Finger cross I have the persistant on keeping the diet and for the next 3 months, at least - if I'm getting a smaller tummy then I'm a happy lucky mama already.

June Days

Month of June just past by so fast, half of the year 2009 gone. Comparing to last year June, it was totally a big contrast. This year June indeed is an eventful and challenging one to me. I got a peaceful birthday, Father's day and a little achievement I got in my new found business. Ya, I know the past was over, can't help I was kind of those who like to think the past, be it happy or sad. Last year these June days was the bad and bitterest moment in my life. But I still thank God for I'm able to live over pain and struggles and He reminds me always to put him at the first place.

My Big day
Turned big Three-Zero on 18th June. Reaching another great milestones of my life, by God grace, hopefully the coming days are more a colourful, fruitful and blessed one. You see when we are at 10, 20 we are very looking forward to grow up, but when the number starts at 3...ahh...I wish the days come a bit late. Anyway, Happy 30th Birthday to me..Thank you to all my dear friends on your lovely wishes from sms and FB. Nothing surprise me on this day. No cake, no candles to blow and no present too, but I'm glad enough hubby able to back early from work and brought us out for dinner at Fusion Haven, Sri Petaling. Even it is just a simple one, but I feel contented enough with everyone at home completely healthy and happy. Nothing I can ask for more... here a mass birthday celebration at church on 28/6 for April-June's baby..April- Mum, May- Terry and June- Dad, bro and me. All of us in the family are fit in there, but my mum not in the pic...
Father's Day
Hubby worked till forget about this day until I reminded him. We went out lunch with FIL at Cheras, Hakka Restaurant - Chuan Kee and night time have hawker food with my dad at Puchong Jaya food court. Wishes both dad and hubby, Happy Father's Day. May your love and care always be with the family and continue to stay strong for us.

Little achievement
I may not mention here before. Since after wearing Teviron, I'm actually slowly started to involve in Nefful business in January. My initial plan after 2 months using was to share this products with ppl around me and help ppl to gain health. I never thought of want to achieve anything in short time, cause the target for another level is quite impossible for a mum like a me who stay at home 6 days a week.

Attended the marketing and product talk once a month on weekend really taught me a lot of things. At the same time also try to equip myself and pick up more knowledge on business and marketing, as I think I have been slowly left out from the coporate world. I began to apply what I've learn and share with ppl. It was not easy at start and how to bring out the work. I didn't force myself so hard and try my best to work on it when time allows and also I didn't set any time frame for myself in achieving anything, as my SAHM duty still comes first. There were some busy days, I even run my works tagging along Terry and go everywhere except attending talks.

Since April, I began active on it and also because all the while I started to share with ppl and they began accepting it. Within 3 months time (time frame to crawl each level), I successfully hit RM18,100 sales for Nefful and promoted to Manager level on 24th June (dateline 29/6). It was a bit unbelievable, since I'm not-so-good in sell products and sales talk, with help from partners and encourgement from family, finally I make it! I was so happy and of cause the products got to do the talking and work on users.

Besides the wonderful products, the business plan also the one I like it very much for a SAHM with no capital to start anything. It not involve start-up cost, no keep stock and no maintanance on sales volume, which makes me easy to work on. Indeed this business also giving me lots of freedom and space. I'm still working hard to share with more ppl the goodness of this piece of Teviron with the aim to help ppl gain health first and at the same time continue to build a firm career with Nefful in next few years.

With this lil' achievement, it shows a good start in rolling out the business, I also give myself a new look. Last week went to Shunji Matsuo New Generation for a hair cut by Sunny.

It is short now after sometimes of keeping the boring shoulder length long hair. I like this new hair style (consider bob hair), looks fresh on me..soon I will go change my senget spec frame too. That's explain why I suddenly disappear in blog and not leave comments to others too, but I still read all of them from Google reader. My blogging will back on track soon..
