Holiday season for Christmas is around the corner. The glow and excitement for the festival is everywhere now. We were briefed about activities at Mikael’s child care quite sometime ago. They are full of colors, songs, rhymes and even cinnamon burst of cookies baking 
I’m glad that he is able to experience the beautiful and joyful moment of different festivals in addition to our own culture.
Nevertheless, this Christmas seems to be lacking one of the most important elements of the celebration. The snow!
Many are sighing and frustrated whilst people like me get even more delighted. I just want to escape from the extreme coldness at least for sometime 
It was last weekend that we were in city center for our grocery routine. I noticed one new shop selling mix stuffs like clothes and kitchenware.
I dragged Faiz and Mikael over to find out more! 
There I figured out that those items were brought from abroad like Sweden and Holland. Everything looks really so beautiful and cute.
But they were quite pricy though 
Mikael could never sit too long in his stroller everytime we are in shops. Either he becomes too excited or he’ll figure out ways to make me leave early
Fortunately this time his daddy was around. He took Mikael to the restaurant next door to calm him down. We ended up having extra lunch with some dessert while Mikael enjoyed playing around the Christmas tree
He is approaching 2 years and 4 months in a few more days. We couldn’t be happier than to watch him grows beautifully and healthy everyday.
He is now learning to talk and being able to make small sentences by himself. He repeats every time we say Maktok or Tokwe.
“TokTok” or “Wwe”… he replies
Those items are from Arabia Finland, a local product from Finland. They are of course as beautiful as the tagged price
Dinner at home, I made some fish soup for little young man and chilli crab with eggs for MrFaiz.
I used combination of Kak Hana’s and Kak Ayu’s recipes for the chilli crab. It was absolutely delicious! thanks Kak Ayu and Kak Hana

Ijan, your photographs are getting so so so much better than it used to be. I mean, dulu pun dah cantik…now its laaaaagi cantik! What software do you use to edit? Photoscape?
You 3 keep well there!!!
Love2cook´s last [type] ..♥…Chicken Fried Mayonnaise Sambal…♥
Hi dear,
We are now using lightroom and photoscape for editing. Photoscape is free but not for lightroom. You can buy it from amazon which is a bit cheaper than anywhere else. Here is the link to Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-CS4-Student-Edition-Software/b?ie=UTF8&node=1259461011&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=left-9&pf_rd_r=1K1KSVC4S1ATE3ZA45MX&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1259950082&pf_rd_i=229534
Once you have the software, you can download the presets from internet for free. It’s really user friendly and easy to use. Hope you will like it too
