in

C.O.O.K.I.N.G

here is a story, indeed a true story...of...

Cooking and me. . .

Many decades ago in another time and place,

When I, a young girl in my own special space,

Learned math and science and a great love of books
But with mom, the expert cook at home, did I need to cook?

And then on to university, and friends oh so fine.
In the subject of law I always did shine.
But having a hostel cafe to provide me with meals,
Cooking and baking just had no appeal.

And then on to marriage , what would you guess,
Cooking was yet to be part of blissful quest,
Until last six months, I'm in a foreign country,
No more makcik stalls, restaurants or kedai mamak - that's all now history
And I found myself in a kitchen so small,
yet now I could amazingly stand in one place and take care of it all.

For my children, the dear ones I love,
I provide them meals beyond and above.

[creamy mushroom soup]

I worked at good cooking all day and all night,
And accomplished a skill that was way out of sight.

And so my hubby and kids they are in my heart my forever dear,
Enjoying breakfast, lunch and dinner prepared with much cheer,

[English breakfast - simple, fast & yummy]

Almost all dishes I'm now confident to prepare,
And hubby proudly invites all his friends..makan2..now nothing to scare!

Cooking is truly a reflection of my love
Spices, warmth and blessings all from above

[nasi beriani, ayam masak merah & kari daging]

Fire of life - that always makes my family yummiest feast
And sooth the soul of hungry cutey lil 'beast'

[kuih che mek molek]

YESS!Now I've no hesitation to say or shout it loud
For an artful chef in the making, far to proud
Cooking for family meal or writing my thesis,
Both are important, I can't miss

[note : all the above pics are my own pic collection of the food/meal that I have always been cooking in the last 6 month :)]

That ends the story of my NEW ME,
sharing it is a pleasure
Winning the Giveaway would be a moment to treasure!

being a NEW me ==I'M ALIVE!!! 

[me love this song so much..can lift my spirit and boost my confidence]
