Allah knows best

If we hold grudges, our spirits get stuck like trapped birds. We can’t fly the way we’re supposed to, because our own resentments bind us and hold us down. When you hate someone, they don’t feel it. Only you do. It affects only your own heart, until your heart hardens and your vision narrows, and life loses its joy and zest.

We must forgive each other and forgive ourselves. Let go of resentments from the past. Do it for your own sake, because letting go and forgiving is the only way to be happy.

Whatever others have done against you, let it go. Consign it to Allah, then forgive. Whatever you have done against others, apologize and ask forgiveness, and ask Allah’s forgiveness as well.









Good night everyone.

Chef Acikin 3.0

Mama must be so proud of me. I have made kuih buah melaka @ gula melaka @ ondeh-ondeh by myself! Actually, not only mama, i proud of myself as well. Lol. This is the third traditional kuih (cakes) that i made myself using my mama's recipe. Before this, i made roti jala and roti bawang.  Hebat. *clap clap* 

So here, what you need are: 

1) tepung pulut (glutinous rice flour)
2) pandan juice - chip the pandan leaves and blend them to get the juice and the colour. Very fragrant.
3) gula melaka - finely chopped
4) grated coconut
5) a pinch of sea salt - table salt sudeh







Both thumbs up! Sumpah sedap. Delicious to die. Tak tipu. 

La ni, bila duduk overseas baru terhegeh-hegeh nak belajar buat itu ini, mintak mama resipi segala benda. You crave, you make your own. Haa tu la, dulu kau tau pergi dapur and makanan dah siap je kan. Order je nak makan apa. Buruk nau perangai. Eh, tapi tolong jugak okay mama masak. Congrats acikin, good job. 


Till then, XOXO ! 



Monday blues is here again?


I wish i could precisely say how i feel right now but none of those words i bind together carry the precise meaning. Not even closed.

Not.
