Yesterday was the last off day for my hubby, sadly he has to go back to work today after 5 long days since saturday he was enjoying his holiday with me. Yup, I am alone again at home after he went to work. Anyways, prior the holiday, we have been planning things to do but I guess we didn't do some of them, he was planning to do the Wifi so I can get online downstairs or anywhere in the house but he didn't, he was enjoying too much of relaxing and reading. We were also planning to do the back garden together but again, we didn't do it and yes I was abit disappointed but I guess he needed his rest coz he's the only person who bring food to the table.

Trip To Horsham 01

Yesterday, we went to Horsham, a neighbor town where my husband's office located. It was about 30mins drive, it was a nice drive, I love the scenery too bad my camera isn't so good to take pictures from a moving car. we wanted to go to this cook shop coz on our wedding day my husband's colleagues gave us a voucher gift to shop there since my husband loves to cook. We parked at my husband's office car park (it's the last building in the pic below), then we went to the shopping centre called The Swan Walk.

Trip to horsham 02

we had lunch at McDonalds coz it's been so long since I have Mcdonalds and I kinda miss it, my husband though wanted us to have a proper lunch at the pub but I told him that we can go to the pub on the weekend when we don't have to be in a hurry to do anything else coz we still had shopping to do.

I am glad that today I can get online again but before I can get online in peace, I gotta do housechores first, so I'll be back!

Sunday Lunch

I just came back from a lunch date at my parent-in-law's house, it was also a late celebration of my MIL's birthday which me and my husband havent yet found a gift for her (blame him coz he's still thinking what to give her), his sister (in a blue tanktop) though gave her mom a purse. She and her girlfriend (in a white shirt) brought their cute little dog named Rosie, I really love dogs and I get to play with rosie at the back garden where we sat after the meal and had our dessert there. My MIL cooked a nice prawn stir fry and fruits with crean for dessert, she also baked some chocolate chip cookies, she's really a good cook oh not to mention the raw veggies with dips and garlic bread for starter and she even served us cheese sticks which is my favorite :)

I did have a good time there especially with Rosie, I took some pics with her which I think I'll post it for tomorrow's Me & My Monday. My husband is having a long weekend and he wont be back to work till Wednesday so I can't get online too long, we're planning to do the Wifi tomorrow and going for shopping on Tuesday and perhaps do the back garden, this is going to be his first time helping me out with the garden, about time, I say!

Hope you guys have a great weekend! 

Happybirthday

Happy Birthday to my MIL, sorry I can't come to wish you in person, coz I don't think I have energy left in me, not even to smile, I hope your Birthday is filled with JOY and GOD BLESS.

To the Beach

It's Sunday, we actually wanted to go to the Cinema yesterday but my husband got sick so he couldn't drive us there and besides it was raining and windy, today we were hoping the day would be a little bit brighter but nope, it's windy and raining when we went out of the house, my husband is feeling abit better, I guess the lack of sleep and he has been doing two jobs coz his colleague quit last week so he's stressed out. We went to the beach to see the funfair that is ended today but since it's so windy and raining, not alot of people were seen to take the rides or strolling by the beach, we then walked by the shops near the beach, most of them are closed though, so we walked back to the carpark and drove to my parent-in-law's house coz we promised to have lunch with them.

We had a late lunch at 3pm, the girls were behaving nicely to them, they had garlic bread, cheese sticks and carrots with the dipping sauces, then we had chicken and potato wedges with salad as maincourse with raspberries puddings as desserts. We didn't stay long as the girls were sleepy after eating and abit tired, so we came home and now they're watching Mulan, Scary Movie and Epic movie downstairs.

I'm off to bed.

Goodbye Grandma

I'm in silence mode, She'll be buried tomorrow next to her beloved husband, now they can be side by side again.

Angie

My sister has been saying that she's going to visit me here in the UK, she lives in Netherlands with her husband and their daughter Angie but since she has trouble finding time with her job and all, she keeps delaying to come here, my niece in the other hand, she's having her summer holiday now and she has been asking her mom to let her come visit me by herself. I have been babysitting her since she was 3 months old so we're very close although now we're kind of lost in translation, thanks to her mom who's probably too lazy to speak to her in Indonesian and so I had to learn abit about dutch language, she knows some indonesian words coz when she was 5, she was still in Jakarta and went to local school, her indonesian was superb at that time, then my sister and her husband moved to Singapore, Philippines (which I tagged along) and then Netherlands, she's 14 now, grown up to be a beautiful girl and I'm told she's coming alone on the 18th and going to stay here for 2 weeks.

Time flies, without you realizing it and people change without they knowing it.

Lunch date

I invited my parent in law to have lunch with us coz we have been invited to dine with them a few times now so it's time to return their kindness, my husband and I thought to introduce abit of indonesian food to them and since we've tried to make Beef Rendang before and he decided that he likes it and his mom would love it too, unfortunately his dad doesn't like curry so we had a steak with red wine pie ready meal for him.

I had to say that I'm satisfied with my own cooking and entertaining, although I must admit, I'm pretty tired now, I had to go back and forth to serve the meal and drinks and wash the dishes, but the chocolate ice cream sundae as desserts is a nice reward after all of that.

My husband is driving them home now so I dont have much time to write this, I'm going to relax now, see you tomorrow VOX!
