team lunch @ tgif, menara hap seng

we've been waiting for this tgif to open. finally i think end of Sept baru dia buka. rasanya dh lama x de team lunch kan? so last friday since everyone look so stress with the work, workload, client, etc. so i think it's the right time to cool the team down.
it's friday guys. friday suppose to be the happiest day kan?
so where else we can go to hv a great team lunch??? TGI FRIDAY's it is!!! :)


the lapaq guys...



cik puan hirda's all time fave lemonade

appetizer - chicken nachos. yummeh.

cik puan hirda's Cedar Seared Salmon Pasta (bykkan mkn ikan yer now. *wink )

zai's bbq beef sandwich

afiq's NY chimichurri strip.

izam's Chicken with Peppers and Mushrooms

ken's miami key west shrimp

our mini dessert. 1 each. (budget team lunch katanya. ha ha ha)

drastic changes after watching TBLA 2

tadaaaaa... yeah changes in food intake. exercise?? errrrr... nanti2 la kot. hehehe

fitnesse honey & almonds.

serious sedap. nampak x the almond chunks tu.

tapi budak ni yg habiskan satu bekas tu.

paling best, kunyah ni sambil tgk the biggest loser asia 2. pastu berangan sorang2. yer hirda keep on dreaming....

i hv a 'sweet' smell......

hehehe sounds like gatal2 je kan? but to tell u the truth the 1st time i smell this Marks & Spencer white peach & almond body wash kat m&s pyramid, terus jatuh cinta. tgk pulak price dia.. WHAT??? rm25 for 1 bottle? oh mahal. excuse me ladies, cik puan hirda bab2 ni kedekut skit.



Then last month, 'someone' who just came back fr london bought me this. not 1 but 2!! oh sgt tamak kan?
actually no different pun, just that yg kaler clear tu foam bath & lagi satu tu cream bath.

so now hari2 i smell sooo sweet. even my boys pun kata wangi. hardy shah pun demand nk pakai ni time mandi. over tauuuu....

500ml. quite big gak.

the price in london is much cheaper than here. ;)

for those who like to try can order from me. email me at: hirda.ibrahim [at] gmail [dot] com.

will check & update apa lagi bath & body product yg available and will open for order.

till then...

i am ready...

..... for 2nd baby! yes u here me right ladies. oh i'm not pregnant (yet). but when i browse through my fp old entries, i just noticed that i really desperately miss hardy when he was a baby.

so here i am, gearing up for my 2nd baby process. ;)

ps: to be precise, gearing up for baby GIRL. we are willing to try anything that can help us to get a girl this time. But if it turns out to be a boy, we'll be happy as well. but i guess shahnun will be the happiest person on earth coz he can save a lots on baby's cloth. cheh.....

so, please pray for us k? :)

xoxo,
Hirda Ibrahim

sunday yg hangat lit-lit....

tu diaaa... cik puan hirda dh buka kamus kedah dia! korang semua perasan x? lately weather sgt le panas kan? on aircond pun cam dh x rs sgt (or adakah aircondku yg dh nk habis gas? or kena upgrade beli aircond tinggi hp dia? oh tidakkkkkk)

so pagi2 ahad, aku bgn goreng kuey teow. mana aku dpt recipe pun x sure, aci campak je bahan2. sekali baru perasan taugeh x de, kucai pun x de (eceh baru perasan konon; sebenarnya x penting pun sayur2 tu, coz mak & anak sah2 x mkn sayur kan? so sila ikut majority. ha ha) so terjadilah CHAR KUEY TEOW!! pelik bin ajaib kan? ori plan nk buat kuey teow goreng, yg jadi char kuey teow apsal? x per la janji ada rs kan?

ni nama dia chay kuey teow karnivor coz penuh dgn daging + udang + ayam +fish cake

pastu tabur ni atas char kuey teow before mkn. isk marbeles sungguh.

ptgnya pulak... singgah kedai kat area2 umah. dia jual keropok lekor yg dikomersialkan.

nama kedai dia "leko-leko". so as a perempuan yg sgt le bagus customer service kan, sambil tunggu owner dia goreng keropok lekor tu, aku siap interview nih...

rupanya owner ni amik keropok lekor fr tganu, tapi dia improvise letak black pepper dlm tu. so rs dia lain fr normal keropok lekor. aku sukaaaa....

lg satu, dia siap letak cheese + mayo lagi atas tu.

left: leko cheese + mayo. S size. rm2.50

right: leko biasa. M size. rm3.00

tekak aku org kg wei, so x leh terima leko cheese mayo ni. tapi terbalik pulak dgn shahnun dia pulak yg suka. pelik, selalu tekak aku yg very international.

yg ni cik puan hirda habiskan. dh le size M pulak tu. ish sgt le kuat mkn hg hirda oi..

itu budak mkn kopok lekor plain je.

hardy shah is 4!!!

sorry la hardy... mama bz this week, so nk post entry bday pun lambat...
ok here goes...

we plan to celebrate hardy's bday a day before coz on his bday itself, shahnun x free mlmnya.

aku dpt tau milwaukee steak house baru buka kat the19, subang jaya. so sebagai pakar kewangan keluarga, cik puan hirda telah mengdecide nk mkn kat situ.

then for dessert; brownies + ice cream.

tapi sayang kat situ x dak lilin ok!! so anak aku frust x leh blow candle.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the next day (on his bday); aku ada meeting kat PLUS office kat NKVE. so meeting habis awal. so mak kompem balik umah terus la kan? pi ambik hardy kat nursery & pi SR section 17. coz sejak balik fr milwaukee steak house semlm hardy dok complaint coz x boleh blow candle.
