The Loaf, Pavillion

Bila Tun Mahathir menyuarakan hasratnya untuk mempunyai cafe ala Fresco seperti di eropah, ada yang menyatakan Malaysia panas, jadi kipas berwap air di keluarkan, wujudlah cafe untuk bersantai di luar bangunan tetapi yang proper (tempat yang selamat). And I like :)

KUALA LUMPUR (July 9, 2013): Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has expressed hope that 'The Loaf', Malaysia's premium Japanese-inspired bakery, will spread its wings abroad to countries such as Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan.

Mahathir, who is The Loaf chairman, also hopes the bakery would be franchised once it is ready to open up to other parties.

"At the moment we're not confident just yet. We don't want the franchisees to lose money, we want them to make money. I think one day when we are more confident we will expand the business," he said at the 'Taste the Experience of Sweet Indulgence' event at The Loaf outlet in the Sogo shopping mall here today.

Also present were his wife Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali and The Loaf managing director Jiro Suzuki.

The event saw the launch of The Loaf's improved signature products, the Creamy Ampan (Japanese red bean buns) and U-hu-hu cheesecake. It was also the official launch of The Loaf Sogo as the 11th outlet.

The Loaf concept offers Japanese-style bread and pastry items baked by Japanese master bakers using premium quality ingredients, mostly imported from Japan and Europe.

The first outlet was opened in Langkawi in 2006 followed by several others including at Empire Shopping Gallery, Subang Jaya; Pavillion Kuala Lumpur; Bangsar Village II and The Mines.

The Creamy Ampan, a fluffy bun with red bean filling, is offered in three flavours – Fresh Cream, Expresso Coffee and Green Tea.

"Unlike other buns and pastries that we enjoy while it's hot, this Ampan is best served chilled because of its cream filling," said Suzuki.

The U-hu-hu range, introduced five years ago, is offered in two cream-based doughs.

U-hu-hu cheese is baked cheesecake with an improved recipe, being less cheesy and less sweet with a non-fruit base, while the U-hu-hu Cream is a non-baked cream cheesecake with a fresh and lightly sour taste, and is yogurt cream-based.

The Creamy Ampan is available at all outlets from today while the U-hu-hu, offered in 19 flavours, is available on July 15.

Today's event also served as an advance celebration of Mahathir's 88th birthday, which falls on July 10 (tomorrow).

Both he and his wife, whose birthday falls on July 12, blew candles served on a three-tier U-hu-hu cheesecake. – Bernama

Luciously lift / Angkat Aura

Berdiri tegak, gerak kaki kanan ke depan dalam 50cm, badan memusing 90 darjah ke kanan tepat di tengah di antara kaki. Ibu jari kaki kiri sedikit ke kiri, jari kaki kanan melurus. Lepas nafas tunduk ke bawah, tangan kanan menapak di lantai bersebelahan dengan kaki kanan.

Perlahan bernafas sambil tangan, bahu kanan bergerak renggangan meghala ke atas, nafas perlahan, bergantung pada minda menerima isyarat untuk merasa pinggang ramping, pinggul meninggi, peha mengecil, renggangan di bawah lutut melegakan. Dada membuka ruang untuk jantung berdenyut. Fokus pada pergerakkan jarang dilakukan mengangkat perasaan ceria.

Atau sekali biarkan tubuh tentukan minda.

English version

Stand upright, move right leg to the front about 50cm, body twists to the right 90 degree. exhale while the right hand falls to the floor besides the right feet. Toes straight while left toes slightly to the left. Inhale slowly while left hand, left shoulder raise to the sky.

Breathe slow, depends on the mind to feel of the waist become small, hips get a bit high, tighten the thighs, stretch release under the knees. Chest wide for heart beating. Focus on rare movements that leave you feel lusciously. Let body sets your mind sometimes.

Faiq dengan nadanya / Faiq with his words

Bila faiq basuh tangan kat sinki dia tengok pokok yang di letak tepi tingkap tu dan memberitahu yang pokok tu tak hidup, tak hidup mama

Dah masa tu kami sibuk tengah makan, papanya tanya macamana nak bagi hidup

Faiq jawab air hujan.

Tadi pun saya cakap dengan Faiq kena simpan mainan, sebab bila pijak sakit tau.

Faiq cakap maaf mama, maaf mama sangat-sangat.

Pagi ni pun dia minta tengok lion dance dalam tab. Saya cakap nanti lepas sekolah

Dia cakap tolong,;tolong, tolong mama.

English version

When Faiq washed his hands, he saw indoor plants at the window and said

Mama, this plant didnt grow, he continue  this not growing, mama

Since we are still eating then papa asked how to make it grow, Faiq.

Then faiq said "Rain" the tree needs rain.

I told Faiq "your blocks hurt me when I step on it
Oh mama I'm so sorry, am really so sorry.

This morning he asked

Mama, I want to see lion dance in the tab,
I said later

He said please please please mama.

Mencari MH370 / Finding MH370

English version below

Tertarik dengan soalan pemberita Awani, dimana ingin tahu apakah tindakkan utama patut diambil jika ada orang lain ingin mengambil alih penerbangan di cockpit. Pakar safety menyatakan sememangnya ada latihan pelindungan kecemasan tetapi kurang pasti untuk Malaysian Airline.

Membuat saya terfikir ade ke butang memanggil pertolongan dengan menekannya sahaja memberi isyarat seperti kebanyakkan bank mempunyai sistem ini.

Mendoakan MH370 ditemui dan penumpang selamat sekarang, Amin. / Pray that MH370 is found and safe now, Ameen.

english version

I am impressed with the newscaster of Awani, where she asked what action should be taken if ever the an unauthorised to take over the flight in cockpit. The safety expert stated there is a training in proctection during emergency but is uncertain ever done for Malaysian Airline.

It made me think whether is there an emergency button to just hit on to alarm people on the land to give help. Almost like most banks have.

Beraktiviti bersama / Activities add all along

Beraktiviti apa sekalipun, saya suka buat bersama keluarga, dari parents hingga ke anak-anak, kadang tu jumpa kawan saya pun saya bawa semua angkatan. Kerana perjalanan untuk jumpa kawan tu saya lebih suka beramai-ramai. Berjaya dalam hidup ini ialah dapat mengisi masa bersama keluarga yang kaya dengan kasih sayang. Kadang mak saya akan bagi exressi oh kawan ni yang pernah jumpa dah kat mid valley :D menunjukkan mak suka walaupun tak tahu kemana, asalkan bersama kami.

Tips : berkongsi bersama mak, suami tentang blogging untuk masukan mereka ke aktuviti ini juga.. Buka phone tab atau computer bila mereka mandi ke, kerana Fadya pernah letak fon di dalam bilik tutup pintu, dan ajak tengok tv bersama. Kerana saya pun suka tonton tv dengan keluarga juga. Lagipun saya boleh terasa emak saya asyik sms, saya elakkan mereka yang bersama saya terasa seperti saya lalui walaupun saya faham mak mengambil masa yang panjang satu untuk type satu perkataan:D.

Satu lagi Tip ialah tunjukkan aktiviti apa-apa yang anda lakukan berseorangan adalah biasa supaya memberi peluang kepada keluarga meriangkan kita dengan cara mereka.

englush version

I love outing activity like being with family.or do it with family, from parents til kids we would bring along. Because getting there where my friend is, I love do it together. Success in life is able to fill the time with family to enrich love. Sometimes, mom will give expression oh this friend whom we met already at mid valley, it showed that she just care being with us without being particular where we take her.

Tips: get family involve with blogging activity like show photos of kids in the blog. On phone, tab or computer while they are having shower or playing. I realised this because Fadya had put my phone away and pull my hand to watch tv with her. I also love watching TV with family. And I too feel uneasy when mom smsing while with me though i know it takes time for her to type one word. :D

Another Tip : in whatever you do, show your activity is neutral, so that you give others to make you happy with their own way.
