A Homemaker’s Diary

I thought I might as well update something despite the loads of work I have in hand, just in case readers visit my blog and they find nothing new to read..hehe..

Actually I would like to put the pictures of my Pangkor trip up in most of the coming entries but then again, I haven’t transferred whatever leftover in my T30 into my PC and Hubby is still not done with his transferring and sorting pictures into folders as well. So I guess this will do for today.

Aren’t they pretty? I love when flowers bloom. It just brighten up the day and feel like there is always hope and spark in life even in the most depressing hours.

These orchids (maybe it’s just my orchids) take ages to bloom and whenever they do, I just glow with joy inside.

How would you like to order a great looking cake which complement the theme of your wedding but is still within your budget by just browsing the Internet? Or a special custom cake for that special person in your life? Now you don’t have to restrict the choice to typical shape of round or square, the cake could be in stacks of books shape. Personally I would love to have this for my next birthday to let people know how much I love books..haha!

If you are a cake shop owner, why don’t you promote and advertise your cake and other baked products at CakeAmerica.com. Or if you are planning to have a wedding, check out their Wedding Cakes Gallery. I love the seashells fondant cake that one of the bakeries advertise on the site. Pity that I am already married. Maybe I could order that for my 25th wedding anniversary later..haha!

I think this is a great idea for local stores to let people know about their baked products. Consumers could search cakes by cities and it certainly will make both life easier. They could see how beautiful your cakes are without having to go direct to your shop. It would help them to make an informed decision about the design and the price. Plus once the good feeling of satisfaction spreads around by your clients, you will have a booming business in no time.

I just love this 5-tier cake. It is so gorgeous that I think the bride and the groom shouldn’t cut the cake forever.

This picture in the middle of KL was taken early this month when I went out to buy some stocks for my business. It was raining that time and I thought while waiting for the traffic light to go green, might as well ask Hubby to take the picture of the building on his side.

I just reached home from Pangkor Island and it was raining the whole trip from the island to Lumut and most of the time to KL. I think it is raining season now in most of the states in Malaysia..huhu! I don’t really like traveling in the rain but I guess we really have no choice when it comes to weather.

I will update about my Pangkor trip as soon as I have transfered all the pictures into my PC and edit them. Have a good start on Monday, OK!

Have you ever heard about vanity light before? I’m sure you have seen one but maybe you don’t know that’s what it is called as..haha!

Ever wonder why in certain restroom in hotel and especially when you are staying in the hotel room, your appearance always look good in the mirror? Well, that’s because they put vanity lights to help you glow in vain..wink!

If you are planning to do some make over to your bathroom and looking for great bargain for vanity lights, check out the online shopping comparison site at BizRate.com. You could shop for the lowest prices, check store ratings and read product reviews before you decide to buy the lights that you need.

Now I don’t know which vanity lights will make me look good in the bathroom because they have so many choices. And it will for sure make Hubby wants to spend hours in the bathroom in the morning to see how handsome his face is..haha!

A friend came over on Thursday noon till evening asking me to make few samples for her textile projects. I never realized how tired I was when I spend my daytime working instead of staying in front of the PC..haha!

I couldn’t even write sponsored post tonight because my brain and body kind of tired. I think that was why when I used to work (employed full time) I fell asleep by 9pm..huhu..

Regardless of that, I was happy that we managed to come out with 5 more samples for her to show to the VIP clients. After all my handcrafted flowers have been published in a local wedding magazine (thanks to her for advertising and asking me to do the samples..) I will scan the pictures from the magazine later and upload into portfolio segment of bungatelur.com.

For now I am still awake because I am watching the items that I’m bidding on eBay. Hopefully by next week I will be over my eBay obsession. I am almost done with the shopping. As of today I found few more interesting items like the leafing pen, metallic paint etc. I am excited to wait for September when I finally will be able to immerse myself completely into scrapbooking.

Oh, the picture above was taken the other day with my D50. I am yet to use the close up filter to see whether it works on the black ant on the heliconia..hehe!
