Congrats!



Hey peeps! how was the weekend?? busy?? lots of weddings to attend?? hehe well this is how it is towards the end of the year.. lots of weddings to attend.. lots of engagement parties to go to.. my cousin got engaged last wkend.. a year ago her bro got engaged.. come to think of it.. i did post an entry abt it lol.. woweeee how time flies and bef u know it another cousin will get engaged.. hmm wonder whos next ahaks

Sooo ok for the past couple of days i hv been baking macs... violet, yellow, green and pink macs.. my cousin is so into lime green that all you could see on Sunday was green everywhere lol.. i also did a batch of chocolate macs using hazelnut with nutella ganache.. yums!



Welppp my first mac tower.. its not as easy as i thought it wud be but i managed to put it together.. mac tower inspired by Yani.. tks dear!



She had ordered a few boxes of macs as a gift for the boys side and i thought why not hv a mac tower to go along.. she was ecstatic the moment she saw it hehe

Sonia and "Princess" - as what she calls my cousin hehe - gifts for the boy's side.. lucky him!

Groupie pics are a must for the aunties and cousins!

The buffet was held downstairs.. decades ago, only weddings were held downstairs.. nowadays kids are lucky .. the exchange of gifts for their engagement were like when i first got married to my ex hb lol.. branded goods, perfume, traditional costumes etc etc etc.. back then the exchange of gifts for engagements only consisted of pastries, jelly, cakes.. anything that had to do with food food food and the only expensive item that was visible was our engagement ring... nasib nasib hahaha

My Nyai inspecting the diamond ring.. she said long time ago every girl got a "buah kanah" type of diamond ring aka cincin berlian :op

Gifts fm both sides..


Well ok thats it for now.. cant stay long.. i was on my feet for 13hrs yesterday baking for my KL orders.. gonna continue with a little bit more tdy.. hopefully i will find time to bake something to get rid of all my eggs bef we head off to KL tmrw... thank u Zakiah and Siti for the mac orders!

...last but not least CONGRATS to Malaysia for winning the SEA Games Football last night!

Hi Rima,

Congratulations to your cousin on her wedding. The bride looks stunning with her green attire. She is glowing :)

Nice mac gift boxes.

Lovely macs. I loike the colors :)For your mac tower, looks like something is missing. I think maybe too many flowers and can't really see the beautiful colors of the macs? Pls don't be angry ya. Just my opinion :)

Enjoy your trip to KL.

Regards,
Sally

Canggih macam mana pun budaya tetap ikut yg lama.. harus ade bunga sirih rampai.. a few years ago there was this trend guna kan pot porri instead of sirih rampai but now nampak nye orang dah mula pakai balik sirih rampai :o)

Memang bertuah! nyampahhhh!! hahaha

Rima said...

Hi Rima. The white orchids on the tower really bring out the colors of your macs. Beautiful! (White orchids are my fav actually! Love them).
