Monday Blues


Last weekend was a little crazy for me.. sometimes u think that u can handle it but deep down u know there are times that u need a breather.. dont get me wrong.. i love what i am doing right now.. baking is part of me now and my store is like an icing on the cake.. at times there are just too many things going thru my head.. things that shouldnt be there in the first place..

You see.. Some ppl change for the better.. some ppl dont.. some ppl dont get it.. some ppl are just plain st***d.. honestly i think i kinda slowed down alot since i hit the big 4.. i dont like to talk too much.. not that i hv become the quiet one but i see myself as the middle person.. i am there to listen and keep the promises that i have made.. if i feel dissapointed.. i will keep that to myself.. dont like to argue and dont like to confront either.. to me its just a waste of time.. life is too short to worry abt stuff.. we all live in a world where we are taught abt family values.. am seeing more and more ppl behaving otherwise.. sigh.. such is life ey.. "Lust is all GET, Love is all GIVE"...

Anyway.. here are some photos that i managed to take of my orders bef they were whisked away..


Simple fondant cake with minimal decor for a one year old girl.. cake is TCCC..

Happy bday Imya Elvyra.. nice name!

... and thank you Renni for this order...

Second bday cake in the making... tripple chocolate cake with strawberry topping..

Didnt take me long to prepare this one... after a good 2hrs.. cake was done.. am happy with the end product..

... and so was the bday girl hehe.. ty dear Marissa for this order.. hope ur classmates enjoyed it!

Mac was ordered by Haziqah who came all the way fm JB.. ty for the kind words.. am so happy to hear that everyone enjoyed it and also.. ty Renni for the apple crumble tart order...

While my apple crumble tart was baking away in my oven.. i decided to bake one more batch for the family... there is something abt apple crumble tart that we are crazy abt.. the aroma is just so so inviting!

... and of cos... this apple crumble tart is for moi... a baker who doesnt know how to keep still hehe..

Babe
So true.. since i hit the big 4.. three years ago i dah macam kendur banyak.. macam dah tak kuasa pun ade.. but jgn sampai over board lah.. there is so much that i can take..

Alah babe.. round pun ok jugak.. lain kali ku travel i will bring back and sell it in my store.. i hv one round pan yg deep.. that one i got it fm jakarta.. the square ones tu memang lah paling i hot fav.. senang nak dibagi bagi kan.. senang nak store.. yg rect tu pun ok jugak cuma kadang tu nak store it in ur fridge u hv to slice it into two parts lah.. yg mini square tu i got it fm paris.. mahal sikit cos its heavy duty .. "industrial usage"

Yat Maria said...

That's life babe..Like it or not after reaching the big 4, we'll notice some change in us..some subtle, some loud.well,,sometimes it's best to just go with the flow.

U make some gorgeous bakes there and that square pies..can make me weep..ishhh I only only 1 typical round tin..I think peninggalan my late grandma..tak taw la how come it can land at my place..so I guess, one of this days, I'll bake a tart..bulat pun bulat la..

Umi Hamid said...

Salam Kak Rima.. not sure what u're going thru.. tp biasanya umi mcm tu la, berdiam dan mengalah dr nak argue. sbb bila argue ni mmg 'meletihkan'. 

shazilah hassan said...

Kak rima,

Sweet sangat2 kek bday tuh.. color dia sedap mata memandang.. Tapikan kak, i will still terkam to the dark one dulu. huhu... Dah la triple choc pulak tuh. I might not look kiri kanan. will hemtam sorang2 :)

Hmm... nie semua order2 nie tunggu turn nak order gak lah. teringin nak merasa.. tapi kena tunggu kak rima turun KL *hint suh inform nieh..huhu*

Bdw kak rima... i guess normal kot.. when i was in my early 20s... nak mengamuk jer kerjanya.. soon nak big3 nieh... kurang sikit lah... mcm kalau argue pun pendek2 jer.. lagi up insyaAllah kurang lagi but i see it as a very good thing sbb hidup makin tenang. Kan kak? :D

 

Rima said...

Human can never run away fm any disappointment... I think it's the tak kuasa part yg buat kita malas nak argue..

Rima said...

Of cos ingat! Hehe.. Insyallah.. If ade umur nak jugak gi sana lagi.. :))

Rima said...

Alamak sis I ni bukan lah balik sangat pun.. Kadang also darah boleh up if they go overboard.. Cuma eversince I hit the big 4.. Ade kurenngg sikit lah "ke berserk kan" ku haha

Rima said...

Of cos ingat! Hehe.. Insyallah.. If ade umur nak jugak gi sana lagi.. :))
