Summer time

Now in here is getting hot and hotter, today the temperature was 41 C, feel very lazy to go out, anyway, my kids start again with their exam, the third term exam and my eldest daugther still having another five more paper to go, her last day of exam will be on 11th June 2008 and for the rest kids will be on 12th June 2008. After that we will go back to Malaysia for two months, such a long holiday and everyone is so look forward. Actually two months are a very short time since i am going back to my hometown in Pahang and my husband hometown in Kedah, then we plan to go for a holiday at Port Dickson and Penang, just a few days left to some shopping (mostly foods) before come back to Abu Dhabi. Hope we can enjoy every minutes we are there.


Last month, i had finished a quilt for my parent-in-law, their 50th anniversary, hope they will like it, each block was designed by my children and my husband, and each drawing will tell how they think about their grandparents, such as Fardan drew the cake for the 50th anniversary, each candle represent 10 years, and i just followed the drawing he made. Fariha drew the sweet corn since in front of their house has a sweet corn stall and everytime we go back to Gurun, my mother-in-law will give us a bunch of sweet corn. So each block has its own meaning.

I aslo made another quilt, it called a puff or biscuit quilt for Fardan. Just for him to lay-down while watching the tv.

Now i'm in the process of finishing another quilt, a wall hanging actually, hope can finish it before go back to Malaysia, still have another three weeks to go.

Last few weeks, i'm also in the mood of baking so did tried a few recipes from the internet, i tried fancy or decorative cookies, oatmeal cookies, black pepper steak, shawarma and jeneket ( recipe from Pn Zarina, thank you), my children loves them all very much. This the decorative cookis i made, but the decorations are not very nice. hope next time i can decorate it better.
