A Healthy Yummy Breakfast

I like having breakfast. I'm the kind of girl who has to have her breakfast every single day. My mom trained me, since I was in Kindergarten to have my breakfast for every single day.. So..until now, I can't leave the house without having a bite of something in the morning. Just by drinking some hot milo or coffee or whateverrrr... cannot be called as 'having breakfast' for me! I need to have some decent meals i.e. cereals, sandwiches, pancakes, waffles, some toast, nasi lemak, fried noodles, fried rice, etc etc.

Anyways..

I made a healthy breakfast set for myself the other day! hehe. It's really really yummy...and best of all, they're easy peasy!

A glass of chilled beetroot juice, my yummy hot coffee, a bowl of Caesar salads, a plate that consists of: turkey ham sandwich, 2 pieces of black pepper sausages. some beef salami, and a sunny side up


Why is it healthy? Because I did not fry any of these hams/sausages/etc.. I only sautéed them (with olive oil).. and I don't use any dressings as for the salad.. Well, you can, if you want to (try French dressing, instead of Mayo or Thousand Island or something..) 


Ohh...and I also used a whole wheat bread instead of white bread as for the sandwich...


Mmm...

Do try it at home! It's very simple! All you need are some slices of hams/beef salami/etc, eggs, bread, and lots and lotsa veggies/salads! And that's it! You can feed your kids and your husband before they're going to work/school! hehe



Anyway.. this is another yummy recipe that I like so much! Mom called it a Honey Mustard Chicken sandwich..

And this is one of the steps to make it.. But, I will share with you the recipe in here, soon!




Have a healthy breakfast everyone!




XOXO.

Peter Pan The Musical Gala Premiere

I am not a Peter Pan fan..as I only watch the cartoon once, (I don't really remember much about the story and the storyline..) but I am definitely a Disney's lover! I love all Disney's cartoon.. So last 2 weeks, when I get the chance to go see the Peter Pan The Musical Show - the Gala Premiere, I jumped up and down happily and excitedly! ;)

Last year I went to a Disney's Princess on Ice in Bukit Jalil (thanks to Naz for sponsoring me! hehe) and.. this year, I get to go to a Peter Pan The Musical in Sunway Lagoon pulak! Yeayyy! hehe ;)

I love everything Disney. I grow up with Disney songs and movies and books all around me.. So of course I'm excited! (You should see me while I'm in a Disneyland! hehe ;p)

Anyways, I'm gonna stop babble and I’ll just show you some of the photos I took during the show..


The Gala Premiere was on 26th of November 2010. It started at about 9.15 pm.. But I had to come early to get my tickets..





I didn't know that we're 'supposed' to wear Green Tights and Pixie Dust's outfit? But..well..everyone was wearing normal clothes. I guess.. everyone didn't know about this! But what the heck is Pixie Dust's outfit ehh? hehe ;p


It was held at Amphitheater in Sunway Lagoon.. It was quite far to walk from the Sunway Lagoon's entrance, so there was this 'shuttle bus' that night that brought us to that theatre! 


...and here we are!


Photo booth


Some Peter Pan merchandise


Arrived at the entrance..


There were people selling foods and beverages, everywhere inside the theater ..


Oh look! There's Big ben! ;)


The crowds that night. it was full house, I think..


...Okay. the show is about to start!




They were dancing happily.. 


....I wish I could join them! hehe

That's Wendy and her Father!

And that's Peter Pan came to her room!


Oh...they're flying!!




Captain Hook and his err...crews? 














The end!

The show ended around 10. 30 pm.. Hmm..To be honest, this musical show was a little less that what I had expected it to be, - not sure whether it was because I did not liked Peter Pan story, and can't remember much of the storyline or because it was Disney's cartoon so I put my expectations so high or... was it because it was held at an open air area and it wasn't that fun... or was it because I was so starving that night? haha. So yeah.. I don't know what caused me to be feeling quite bored in there. Heee.

So... I would rate this musical show a 5/10, really!


Jalan jalan dekat luar that theatre lagi best! hahaha (Bad picture quality though! ;p)



By the way... this show runs until January 2nd 2011! So there's still plenty of time to watch it with you loved ones! =)




P/s: My internet was healed by itself! Yeayyyy! hehe ;)




XOXO,

Streamyx Down!

Arghhhhhh. My streamyx at my house has been down since 2 days ago.. Sob sob.. It's really hard, not having internet these days. I feel so awkward and my life feels so weird and 'empty'! Hehe. And the worst part is, I can't do my work at all! Tskkk :( (Now I'm blogging from my BB, btw).
Hmmm..

Well hopefully the steamyx people will come to my house and solve the problem asap! I miss online-ing already! !

So How Do You Store Your Jewelries?

Accessories and me can never be apart.

"Find me a woman who doesn't love accessories! They're like toys for grown-ups, aren't they?" - Victoria Beckham.

That is SO TRUE!

I would always wear at least one, to just about anywhere I go! Be it a ring, or a bangle, or a belt, or some necklaces around my neck or even a chic bag! Heyyy...a bag is an accessory too, no? hehe. So yeah, I would never leave the house without an accessory on me!

Accessories personalized an outfit. They last a lot longer than clothes and they can be a good, quick and not too expensive treat on days when you really need one! For instance, I always ended up visiting (and buying) Diva store whenever I dunno what to get for myself when I'm in a mall. They're consider cheap and always chic to wear! I think, it is worth to spend or should I say...invest in some accessories as compared to clothes, because you'll tend to use your accessories more often than your clothes. - You'll carry your bag everyday, whereas you probably won't wear the same top for every single day! Am I righttt?

Anyways, among the stuff that can be called as accessories i.e bags, shoes, belts, jewelries, hats, brooches, scarves, hair pieces, etc etc... what is your most favourite item, ladies?

Well..to be honest, it's really hard for me to answer this question actually... because, apparently every girly-girl like me, likes everything girly! And accessories happened to be a girly thing! haha. So for me, if I really had to choose.. I think it would be shoes and jewelries. Those two things really do put a smile on my face. (Oh well..  and bags too! and err...head pieces, headdress..and err..lots more! LOL  ^_~) 

So this is my accessories/jewelries section on my dressing table.. Just a small area, though. (And yup, it's kinda messy.. Still saving some money to buy this type of vintage jewelry cupboard. Heh)




Anyway, today.. I wanna talk about some jewelries..since I have received some requests regarding my fashion jewelries collection. I know, you've seen my photos with really big rings or chains and whatnot, right? So today.. I'm gonna share with you some of my favourite pieces and how I store these jewelries! (Mom just gave me her jewelry box! - Thank you ma! ^_^). 

Just so you know...before any of you jump into conclusion that I wanna show off or anything... Oh well, this post is really not for me to brag. Seriously. I mean..why would I wanna brag my jewelries that I mostly bought for like 5-10 bucks? haha ;p (You've seen it yourself, right?). Well.. This is just for me to share how I store them (since I know a lot of girls would love to get some ideas on this) and to share with you, some of my favourite pieces, since some of you have asked me!

Okay... So let's start! ^_^


Now I'm sure most of you girls do possess some pretty costume jewelries, right? So how do you store them? Does it get messy and tangled with each other? Mine does! Like all the timeeee! Especially the chains and necklaces.  It's annoying! Especially when you're pretty late, and about to go out and just wanna grab your fave pieces, but only to find yourself untangling those chains for hours! Ughh >_<

That's why I need a proper jewelry cupboard. So I can just choose, grab and go! Yes, not just a box, but a jewelry cupboard! Because apparently, my overflowing accessories can't fit in the jewelry box anymore! tskk.

But well...at least these days I stored these babies of mine quite better than the last time... Just so you know.. Last time, I used to put my accessories lying on the dressing table..

...and it's really really messy and sometimes they got lost in the jungle of Wani's junk.. and I won't find them ever again! T_T


So the other day, mom gave me this Mitch & Marc awesome jewelry box for me to store all my favourite pieces in here!



It has a lot of compartment to store all the rings, bracelets, etc! So it's cool! I likee! =)


It is a two-tier jewelry box. And in this compartment, I use it to store my watches and some head pieces/corsages, etc



Here's how it looks like when I have stored all my favourite pieces into the box!


At the both sides of the tray, I stored all my fashion rings. Some of the rings, I had them since I was 13, you know! Can you believe how long I've kept them? hehe.. I'm really good in keeping my stuff, don't you think?! Hee.. Oh well, they're my vintage pieces! Of course, I gotta protect and love them! ^_^ 
And in the trinket boxes, I put all my pins and small brooches. And the purple boxes on the other hand, I store all my real jewelries given by my parents. Whilst the black sequined box, I store another fashion rings of mine. Those that are considered as.. quite big rings..

 I have two of these boxes actually.. Both, I stored my fave bold rings in them.. 
Hmm.. The next time I buy any rings from Diva or whateverrr..I don't know where else to store them! Not so many space, now...ey? LOL ;p 


Anyway, in this compartment, I put all my items that needs to be sent out to the Jewelry Doctor! hehe




Ok..moving on to the lower part of the box..

.....is where I kept all my pretty pretty items!! hehe. I've always love to see my stuff in here.. They're girly and flowery. I likeeee! ;) 
(I'm not really a watch kinda person. Hence, the space is so small. I dunno why...even though I have a few other watches, but I always ended up wearing the same one, every time I go out! haha. Lazy me! ;p)



Anyways...let's have a look at some of my fave items around here..

These are my classic pieces.. I love all of these! Sometimes I use it as a brooch on my scarf. Sometimes I put it in my hair or on a hat or something.. and sometimes I pin it on my tops/jackets, making it as a fashion statement


And these are some flower power! Normally I put these on my blazers..



Okayy..enough about the stuff in that jewelry box.. Now, we move on to another fashion accessories that I store outside the box..


Since I don't really wear head pieces/hairband/head band or whatever you call it thattt often.. So..I don't really need a huge space and compartment for this one..

So I stored all my cute little hairband, gypsy head band, etc etc in this small wooden basket..



Next.. I placed some of my bangles, bracelets and charms on this pinky cylinder thing.. They're great to store your bracelets! But unfortunately, there is not enough space! I need it some moreee! tskk. T_T

If you're planning to get one of these, I bought this at Girls Store in KLCC, by the way..



And just to share with you, these are actually my fave fave fave wrists accessories! These 6 items are my all time favourite among my other bracelets/bangles.. They are pretty and super cheap! (None of these were from Malaysia though.. They're from Aussie, Holland, Indonesia and Jeddah, by the way)



Next that I'm gonna show to you are...

Everything else that are on the table! haha.

Well I can't really show you girls each and every item in here, can I?  I know, you'll be bored reading me blabbering! haha.. So I'm just gonna make it short.. 

Anyways..

I have two doll necklace holders and one ring&bracelets holder that is in a high heel figure, which I bought them while I was in Bangkok last year. They have no brand/label as I bought them at one of the flea markets in there.. So I hang all my junks around them.. They are pretty messy actually... I don't know how else (and where else) to store them! T_T 
Does any of you have any ideas on how to store necklaces and chains without looking so messy? 

Oh yeah.. by the way, that hot pink bangle was given by one of my reader as my birthday gift, this year! Thank you so much Kak Mawar! ^_^

And next... In that blue Tiffany & Co cute jewelry box, I stored all my scrunchies, hair bands, hair clips, bobby pins, etc etc.. While in that black box, I put some miscellaneous items..

So that's it... That's how I store all my accessories!



Ohhhh... and before I forget... I have another part that I want to share with you girls...

...well, under the dressing table, there are some drawers.. And in one of the drawers, I divided the section into two parts; I stored my brooches, and another compartment is for my most favourite necklaces everrr. I love all of these necklaces so much! That's why they deserved to be placed in a safe and comfy place! haha. Unlike that messy dolly necklace hanger! haha ;p



So these are my lame brooches. I don't really wear expensive brooches, unless it's a gift from my mom (which rarely happen! LOL ;p)

And..can you see the flower pearl brooch at the corner lower left side of this tray? Well..it was a gift too, from my reader, a.k.a Kak Ain! Thank you kak! You're so generous to give me some brooches and the Tie Rack scarf! God bless you! hehe ^_^

So these are my favourite necklaces!


Okayyy.. That's it! Enough already! You've seen most of my jewelry collection now! hehe.. So how do you store yours, ladies? Care to share? =) 




XOXO,

It's here! It's here!

IT IS HEREEEE! hehee.

Guess what I'm looking at??

Yupsy! The "christmas blend" is hereee! Hooray! (I knoww, I'm a lil' late to announce this..but whateverrr! hehe ;p)

I honestly feel that Starbucks Christmas special blend is one of the best coffee in the world!



My favourite one from their Chritsmas special, is the Toffee Nut flavor drinks (be it the frappuccino -that's iced blended for you, or the iced latte or even a hot one). I love having their Toffee Nut Latte especially, since latte is my fave type of coffee beverages among the others (I don't like Long Black or Affogato or Espresso or whatever, by the way! But..Cappuccino's fine by me! ^_^)


-image source: googled-

If you are a fan of caramel, you will love Toffee Nut Frappuccino because it tastes almost similar to Caramel Frappuccino except with sprinkles of tiny toasted nuts on the top and has some buttery toffee taste. While, the Peppermint Mocha Frappuccino has more of chocolatey taste in it. (which I don't quite like... Because I don't know whyy..but if I drink any chocolatey drinks..I feel like a kid. Unless it's raining and it's cold outside. Wth?? LOL ;p)





Anyways.. every year, around November, I will look forward to this menu! This drink is so special because it is only available around Christmas time..up until January only.. Bummer! How I wish they have it all year long! I still remember, around last two years, I think.. I used to buy this drink for every single day for the whole 4 weeks! Craaaazyy! hahaha. Until the Starbucks' barista near my house, already knew my order..that I don't have to say it out loud each time I walk into the store!  They'll be like, "Hey Miss Wani! Iced Venti Toffee Nut Latte with extra sprinkles on top, for you right?" And smiled.. Hehe.
Oh, I do really love this drink! LOL. ;p



Well.. This Toffee Nut Latte is different from the regular lattes because they add another 2 more ingredients, which obviously the Toffee Nut syrup and, the crunchy Toffee Nut Sprinkles on top of your yummy latte.. And that's why I loved it so much! Mmmm...


For those who haven't try, do try it the next time you're ordering at Starbucks! =)



XOXO,
S.
