MCO Day 68 ~ 24 May 2020 (Sunday)

When I came back from my morning jog at 10 a.m., breakfast was almost ready.  Our baking queen was whipping up some pancakes in the kitchen!

She made button pancakes and regular size pancakes in 3 flavors – original, matcha and chocolate.

Cute as a button – these super cute button pancakes are so easy to pop into the mouth. Perfect for toddlers and adults don’t mind some too 🤤

Sherilyn poured the pancake batter into a squeeze bottle and squirted the batter onto the frying pan.

Perfect match – pancakes and caramel sauce, which Sherilyn made last week.

 

Today hubs deserves plenty of Brownie points!  After my computer got struck by lightning yesterday evening, hubs brought it to the computer shop at Low Yat Plaza today to have it fixed. Despite today being the first day of Hari Raya, the computer shop is still open.  Times are bad and business owners can’t afford to rest even on public holidays.

When hubs got back, a surprise awaited me!  I got more than what I’d asked for. Not only was my computer fixed, he got me a brand new set of computer, complete with a new mouse, keyboard and speakers!   As we don’t have enough computers at home for online classes, Cass gets to inherit my old desktop computer.  Alycia and Sherilyn who don’t have a webcam for their desktop PCs got new ones too.  I guess there’s peace at home now. Everyone has their own desktop PC and hubs can use his laptop in peace 🤟


Hubs helped to set up my new desktop PC before going to his shop to supervise his chef. There’s going to be lots of beef rendang and lemang for the coming week for customers who’ve placed order for this special dish for Hari Raya. His Indonesian chef cooks one of the best beef rendang.

Stay tuned for Catermate’s Menu for the coming week!

Choosing The Bridesmaids Dresses

Choosing your wedding colors and bridesmaid dresses color can be one of the toughest decisions you’ll have to make for you wedding if you’re an indecisive bride! As if the venue, seating arrangement, guest list, flowers, music and the cake weren’t enough to stress you out (and the list goes on and on!), choosing the perfect bridesmaid dress color that will make everyone happy is yet another feat.

There are so many irresistible colors out there and unless you already have a dream color for your wedding and your bridesmaids, how’s a bride going to choose?

Here are 5 things to consider before choosing your bridesmaid dress color(s):

1. Consider the color of your bridal gown
Whatever color or style you choose, keep that color in mind so that your bridesmaids won’t clash while they stand next to you. If you’re going to wear a white bridal dress, you could consider mauve, soft pink or baby blue for your bridesmaids. These are some of the favorite bridesmaid dress colors in 2019.

2. Location is key
Your venue will literally set the stage for your wedding day so choose colors that complement the space.

3. Consider your own personal style
If you’re one who loves bright happy colors, having a white or silver wedding would be a tad out of your element.

4. Discuss with your fiancé
Your fiancé may have a strong preference of what he does or absolutely does not want. Be considerate.

5. Consider multiple bridesmaid dress colors
Mix-and-match is in vogue now, so it’s not uncommon to see a variety of colors in the bridal party.

Color palettes are important for having consistency on your big day – between the dresses, décor, flowers, etc. It’s easy to get carried away with too many colors, so it’s advisable to choose at least three main colors for your palette.

Once you’ve settled on the color of your bridal dress and that of your bridesmaids, then it’s time to decide on where to get the dresses. You can opt to shop for it online or offline. YesBabyOnline.com is a complete online store for all your bridal apparel needs. They have a great site with stylists who are available online to help you find the dress that you have in mind. You can ask them anything from styling and sizing advice and tips on the perfect accessories for your dress, or just a second opinion. They carry some absolutely stunning elegant gowns for the bride and cheap bridesmaid dresses that you’ll sure to love.

Planning for your wedding should be a joyous occasion that shouldn’t overwhelm you too much. Draw out a planning timeline and try to get everything ready at least a month before the wedding so that in the last few weeks before your wedding, you could just sit back, relax, and enjoy the build-up to your big party!
