A New Paradigm!

That morning I sent hubs to the airport, he had meetings in JB, and the late Mr CP had just established his firm in KL. Hubs was to take care of the KL office. I was about 36 weeks ++ preggers with Khadijah. Since, hubs was not around, I decided to spent the night at mom's!

I felt alright that day, except that I spent the entire day going to the toilet! It got worse when I got back from work! Was I having urinary tract infection? I thought!? After dinner and my Isyak, I decided to hit the sack......if I remember clearly, it was not half an hour after I lay in bed, I felt a gush of water burst! Did I pee in my pants? I got up, went to the toilet, there was no smell, just clear water...and yup there was a pool of water on my bed....I quickly grabbed my Johnson's Week By Week Pregnancy book, ....hoyeah! It was water from my water bag!

I woke my mom up, ayah drove his old Volvo with hazard lights on...I kept telling him to relax, I was not going to beranak yet....but I can imagine how nervous he was to see his first grandchild.......I gave birth after azan Maghrib the next day, hubs arrived just before I pushed Khadijah out!....and that was 17 years ago! and today Khadijah started her SPM exams......she was cool this morning, the BM paper was okay she said just now....and I'm the one who's nervous.

It felt like yesterday, I pushed her out,.....but now she's talking college, Alevels.....she has submitted a few applications for scholarships from a few colleges...she went through an ordeal at the PBUM due to a rectal biopsy that gone haywire at 3 months, survived a culture shock when she decided to move from a private school to sekolah kebangsaan and teenager moodswings and now left with "Cupcake" her hampster!

....so... we are now talking new uncharted territories for her and me......

Maltesers' Squares

Hi you alls!How was your week!? Mine have been hectic! Anyway, we had a corporate wellness program today in the building and I got my sugar level, body fat and cholesterol level checked....except for my cholesterol level that is on the borderline, the rest is okay! Gotta start taking rolled oats for breakfast and climb up the stairs to my office to correct my cholesterol level!

Anyway....I made this about two weeks ago! First saw this in dailydelicious blog and later stumbled again on this beautiful comot squares in masam manis blog! They are awesome, except that, I love Maltesers so much that I don't think I could wait for them to be transformed into this, haha!

It's very easy to make, so, let's see....
Ingredients
100g butter
200g dark chocolate, chopped
3 tbsp golden syrup
225g digestive biscuits, I used Biskut Marie, crushed to fine
225g Maltesers, chilled

100g Maltesers
50g white chocolate melted
50g milk chocolate melted
Method
1.Grease a square 8 inches cake tin, I lined with baking paper.
2.In a medium pan, melt together, butter, dark choc, and golden syrup stirring to get a smooth consistency.
3.Add the crushed biscuits, stir to incorporate.
4.Quickly add Maltesers. And pour into cake tin. Chill in the fridge for about 4 hours to set.
5.Once chilled, spread the additional Maltesers and drizzle with melted dark choc and white choc and chill again.
6.Cut to small squares to serve!

My kids love them, I had my share of Maltesers, earlier, haha! I gave some to Dianne who came by to collect her birthday cake....
