Pangkin Bonda Homestay

Assalamualaikum...

this is the homestay that I stayed during my brother wedding last January in Muar, Johor...when first my brother showed the house to me, I was sooo happy because there is a swimming pool inside the house...hoyeah!!...but yeah no, I didn't jump into the pool since my cousy was there and I am very the shy~lalala ^_^v BUT the kids will enjoy it!!

so basically since only my whole family which consist of 10 people plus one family of my aunt wana join us staying at this homestay, total up there were 14 people joining us that day and Alhamdulillah it fits all of us with an affordable price! =D

the homestay is equip with:

 3 bedrooms

2 bathrooms

1 swimming pool, 

a kitchen fully equip with gas and all the utensils for you to cook + coffee & tea as a bonus

barbeque set

TV (without ASTRO)

coffee table for us to lepak2

its so complete plus with the Kampung style scenery, its the best choice for a getaway or family gathering or even if you wana have a breakthrough from the hectic busy city life~

lets have a look at the house~ 

  

the 1st bedroom is equip with 1 single & 1 double bed with a sofa, a small table & 1 cupboard and an aircond

 since this room has more beds and larger than the other 2, so my aunt, my mom, my sis, my cousy and the 2 little munchkin stay in this room...luckily my aunt brought an extra mattress...fuh~~

unfortunately I dont have a decent photo for the 2nd bedroom...huhu...but the room is equip with 1 double bed, 1 cupboard & an aircond...the room is quite small and at the edge of the bed is a wall which is small that you can only put your luggage there...and the space between the bed and the cupboard (exactly on the right of the photo) can fit one person to sleep on the floor...

  

  

the 3rd bedroom is specially reserve for the guys! uhuk! haha... 

it has 1 bunk bed & 1 cupboard & no aircond only a fan but no worry...with the Kampung weather, its not that hot especially during the nights...

as I said that the house is equip with barbeque set, the barbeque area is just infront of the 3rd bedroom area with 2 benches and a table with chairs...there is even a special sink just beside the barbeque area...no hustle to go to the kitchen...hahaha...while enjoying the night gathering with family, no need to buy food outside, just barbeque and have fun!! hehe

    

  

sadly to say, with the time constraint and tiredness, we didnt have the chance to utilise it...uhhu...such a waste~~ I have been imagining it before we came there but.........wedding event right, what do you expect~wearing henna is more importante than barbeque...im sad!! -_-"

the kitchen and the bathrooms side by side...the kitchen is fully equip so no worry to bring a kettle or whatsoever...even there is a fridge! thats y its a good idea for a barbeque...you can marinate your chicken or beef beforehand and store it here... :D 

and last but not least! tara~~~

  

  

the swimming pool~hoyeah!

its sooo clean...well maintained! well done to the owner!

the first thing that the kids were so happy about when they enter the house...hhahaha...still remember the little munchkins were so excited and cant get enough with the pool...owh the buoy doesnt belong to the homestay ya...my cousin brought that when she knew that there is a pool at the homestay...hahha...can you see whos much more enthusiastic-the mom or the kids? hahaha :p

I really enjoy such a gathering...chitchatting, laughing together and release your tension...enjoy yourself while you can and this is one of the way to strengthen the relationship as well...

argh I miss the gathering already...if plus with the barbeque will make me miss the place more~~ok enough with the barbeque! haha

dont you just love the scenery~~

I dont have Kampung, so when I come to such a place, I will deeply in-love with the place...will miss this homestay...one of the best homestay so far other than Kampung Sirih that I have been to in Kuala Selangor...to experience myself with Kampung environment, I love to go to such places..

so guys, if you know any homestay that's with Kampung style/scenery/environment, would be good if its situated in Kampung, do let me know ya... ^_^v

Bye~^_^v

p/s: 1. to know more about the homestay, visit their FB page here

       2. you can ask them the price since the price that I got is the best price and dont ask me y I got 

           that price...hahaha...but believe me its sooo cheap! worth it!

Aiskrim Pasu - 'Vase Ice Cream'

Assalamualaikum...

while I was in Malaysia for my brother wedding, I took the opportunity to go and hunt for this special and unique way of enjoying your ice cream and has become a phenomenon in Malaysia recently...I encounter it when my bestie sister posted it in FB...so since after the wedding I was alone with my new sis-in-law and she is a foodie as well, so we go and hunt for that particular shop at Bangi...

the shop is called Bubble Blog and situated at Lot 36, Seksyen 4 Tambahan, Bandar Baru Bangi

there are lots of shops that sell this but since I am particularly going to Bangi that day to run some errands, so I end up using Mr. Google to locate a shop that sell this at Bangi area and this address pop up ^_^v

dont ask me the direction to go there since I am not familiar with the area but since my sis-in-law is a ex-student of UKM, so she new a lil bit Bangi area and she directed me there! hehe tq Finas >.< but all I can say is its so easy to find the shop...

this is how the shop looks like...its not only selling 'aiskrim pasu' alone, but they also sell variety of other foods like waffle, ABC etc as you can read on the banner :D

  

the preparation stage...

its actually an easy steps to make it happen...

The Steps:

1. prepare a vase and then insert another transparent container in it

2. Put 3-4 scoops of ice cream of any flavours that you wish (as this shop case, they allowed 2 flavours for each vase)

3. Then sow some cornflakes powder

4. Then sow some oreo powder next

5. Insert a straw in the middle of the vase and then thru the hole of the straw, put any vege that you want such as mint leaves

6. Then put a love letter biscuit

7. Lastly, put some colourful sweets that looks like a rock (as in the pic below, sorry I dont know what its called) and a jelly to illustrate a worm! -_-'

and tadaaa~~!!

the taste? taste like ice cream! hahahaha...what do you expect right? =D

but for RM5 for this size of vase, is worth it I can say coz the vase is quite big...

inside view...

once you finish eating it, dont throw away the vase, you can recycle it back by making your own vase ice cream as I already show you the steps of making it or you can use the vase to plant something...recycle guys!! hehe

I send this pic to my bestie and she was satisfied coz all she wants is the vase! lollllzz!! haha...

can strikethru one of my bucket list! haha

Bye~^_^v

My Brother Wedding ^_^

Assalamualaikum...

my second brother at last is a married guy now ^_^v haha

since I am already in UK last year December, so I went back on the 27th January coz the wed was on 31st of January at the bride side at Muar, Johor....and thats the reason last year I went to Muar for a day trip! to meet my future sis-in-law since during my bro engagement, I wasn't there -_-' hehe

so, since the wedding was at Muar, my bro rent a homestay around my sis-in-law house which is just a few minutes away from her house and the venue of the reception...will tell you more about the homestay in a new post...just love the scenery, the house and the price is sooo much reasonable comparing to what we get! :D

after the 'akad'...Alhamdulillah, with just one 'lafaz', he is a husband now! Congratz Alang :D

with the family theme is red! ^_^v

the reception!

Alhamdulillah, all of my relatives attend the wedding at Muar including most of my mother's siblings all the way from Seremban, and few of father's side all the way from KL...muchas gracias!

and yeah, the highlight here is, dont mistaken him for Nouman Ali Khan, its not!! =D

a week after that, on the 7th of February, the reception is on my side...my bro rent a hall at Gombak named Pusat Komuniti Gombak...although its a bit confusing since the are few halls at the area and since the hall is situated in the housing area, so quite a few people actually lost in finding the right hall...hahaha...but Alhamdulillah, everything went well and guests keep pouring in until its 5pm...pfftt~ 

at the groom side, the theme for the family is electric blue! ^_^

Alhamdulillah, quite a few people that I knew came to this wedding including my roomate when I was in UIA with her husband, my boss Dr. Aznida and her family, and my bestie family...tq guys!!! muchas gracias!!! muahhh3!! ^_^v

and there is one particular guest which everyone thinks that they are my friend....hahaha...but its not...its my first brother's friend which is from Bulgaria but working with the same company with my brother, Scania...and they even attend the reception at Muar! 

they haven't really experience the real Malay wedding eventhough they have been in Malaysia for one year...so they came to both side of the receptions to witness it themselves and even when at Muar, they were one of the early guests...and me, I am the commentator explaining everything to him since my bro is busy on the stage as one of the witness =D hihi

and this is my sis-in-law!! hehe...and she is the same age as me!!! yaaa u heard me...haha...anyhow, since we are at the same age, we really have chemistry between us...anyhow, she is still a sister to me since she is 3 days older than me...wakakaka! ;P

HAPPY MARRIED LIFE TO 

ALANG + SYAFINAS

love you guys!! :D

Bye~^_^v
