... i'd fix the broken ceiling, painted the whole house and throw away all the garbage. But I am a woman.

Material: 3kg of raw kitchen waste (fruits and vegetables) 1kg of brown sugar (gula merah/kabung/nise/melaka) 10L of water (no need mineral water or deionized - pipe water will do) Preparation: Get a 15L container with cover and measure in the water. (Water level could get up to 3/4 full) Cut the raw kitchen waste into small size and dump into the water. (Now water level could get to 1" from full. Use a bigger size container if container becomes too full. The process needs air to complete and extra space will allow for good mixing later.) Dump the brown sugar into the mixture and mix. Cover the container and keep at cool and dry place. Open the container and stir the mix everyday to release built up gas and to propogate the process. After a good mix, close it and leave it until the next day. Repeat daily for the first 30 days. Leave the container closed for another 60 days. After the 3 months process filter off the residual solids from the liquid. Keep the liquid ready for use in ...

Cheezy term coined from "do it yourself". Even as a child, I was always interested to do things myself. Remember those building blocks? Or the ABC which we'd arrange to make words etc. Remember LEGO!? The ultimate toys for the constructive mind. There are many other toys that you'd put together pieces to end up with the actual toy. Well I'm in my 40s now. When I first come across DIY term on the internet it just continued to interest me. Probably DIY at home was the most popular search. Then I began to search for DIY sewing projects. Then I came together with my own DIY kit. Through Sulam Sayang I created a Beginner's Beading DIY Kit . Then I came up with Tudung Bawal DIY Kit for hand embroiderers. Latest is through Eazy-Grow I'm promoting Hydroponic Kit , Hydroculture Liquid Fertilizer , Seeding DIY Kit and Fertigasi Kit. Wow! Am I thrilled with DIY kits. Would like to share my interest to everyone, get yourself a DIY kit. It'll probably be the be...

This year's experience is different. Kak Long is away, Baba is away, so there's just me and the boys. The boys are sweet at times, like pic showing them making ondeh-ondeh. But at other times, I can't catch up with the em, as I tire very easily. Even without Kak Long the boys got me presents for my birthday and put up an effort for a surprise party - although I knew it coming. My mind ping pongs a lot nowadays, thingking of projects for me to take on. Unfortunately it's all a blur. I'm good at thinking for other people I guess but hopeless when thinking for myself. This year I cook for breakfast and sahur most of the time. Going to Pasar Ramadhan is like trying to cross Chow Kit Road at 5. What with the swine flu and all. Plus things are so expensive nowadays. I guess that's what drove me into trying out new recipes. I love trying out traditional malay kueh and dishes. There's a few which I've updated at my Famili Cooking . But truly most of my trials a...
