planning planning

salam,

nak cite-cite nih!

m ada 2 plan!

plan nombor satu..

nak gi honeymoon w hubby.

actually, lebih kepada dating sebenarnya

Have not been on a proper date* with him for so so so so so long..

(*haritu- 3 weeks ago i think- masa bawak abah gi johor for a stint at the cosmetic surgery clinic-a dialysis thingy- adalah kitorang gi danga bay mall, siap pegang tangan gitu, rindu gila time-time camtu. masa tu tak bawak baby, jadi ala-ala dating tak dating la tapi tak proper laa, takde dinner+movie.. hehe)

So ingat anniversary ni nak overnight kat mana-mana.

jadinya dinner +movie plus some privacy. ehem ehem

M tak penah tinggal baby malam-malam sbb mmg biasa m yang tidokan baby waktu malam..

tapi m dah berjaya dapatkan sitter for the night!!

yea for me!

plan nombor dua..

m nak buat a get-together with some friends.

an all-girls thing, light food, great music, can-wear-anything-you-want.

parti sampai tak hingat dunia!!!

tak ah, hehe..

tak sehavoc tu

i want a night to dance.. its been awhile you see..

lama giloks tak nari..

so that s why I came up with this.

and...

I got a DJ at 500 bucks!

Just need the venue, its got to be a hotel coz they can do whatever but  I don’t know how much they would charge. Need to ask for some quotes..

Let’s get busy!!

ch..chao!

A plus for me!

Salam,

think it was on Friday, went to Tesco to buy stuff..

wanted to find an alternative to Nescafe. not for me, i dont really drink coffee..

so i found Boncafe. an Espresso formula..

but to my ignorance, since i'm not a coffee drinker. i bought the wrong one...

instead of the instant coffee granules, i bought the one that has to be filtered.

a bit of hassle to prepare in the morning but in another way, its a good thing!

i get to keep the coffee powder!!

to make coffee soap!!

i know i dont have time for soap just yet but it's a keeper for now.

i put it in the fridge.. for future use..

hehe

getting high - soap porn-ing!

salam..

guess what i've been doing for the past weeks

since i couldnt make time to do soaps, i view them.

YES!
YES!
YES!

entertaining myself with the much needed soap porn..
from the web and the FB group, Soaper's Retreat!

what else could i do?

I am in the office, mixing work with the tiniest bit of pleasure..

If I were at home, I'd probably make time to do a little bit of soaping.
Coz my nephew is at the nanny's..

But I'm at work and soap porn-ing is the best I could do to satisfy my urges.

...

it is a relief..

...

for now..

Shampoo bar Rebatched (15Nov12)

hi

seems that i cant upload pics anymore!

I've used all my 1GB space (that I didnt know was limited)

sad.

this might be the last blog with pics, unless i upgrade, i think..

I've made the shampoo bar.

tried to do the hearts swirl but soap was to thick!

(heart colours was cocoa powder and turmeric)

hasilnya - kek batik! hehehe

 tried the pencil line 

alas!!

lye pockets showed!!!!

water+aloe vera - less water, maybe thats why..

so had to rebatch!

fyi, this soap is soft

i could mash it with my hands, with the consistency of mashed potato.

(now colour is light orange)

after 2 days, it was still soft. but i cut it anyway.

now waiting for 4 weeks to cure!

yea!!

Shampoo Bar

i wanna make a shampoo bar(s) tomorrow, using Soap Queen recipe.

maybe i could ask my mom to take care of Nawfal in the morning...

hehehe

Otherwise i cant do anything.. really.. 

right now, his naps are really really short.maybe an hour or less.
and if that happens, i really cant do anything but just sit beside him and watch him play, when he wakes up. and watch a bit of TV when he sleeps.

he's in the stage where he will crawl, yes. and CLIMB. just so he could stand.
he's started climbing the stairs, which is a definite no-no.
he has been watching us going up and down the stairs so he wants to do the same.
but he could only managed to climb the first step so far..

i'm really excited about the shampoo bar thing.
i want to cure my dandruff woes.

if it works, i can have my daughter use it too coz her dandruff problem is slightly worse than mine.

i've only used my soap bars as an All-in-One, Top-to-Toe kind-of wash. I use it for my hair and body. 

I have many soaps for use now but i want to have a specific one for my hair, 
specifically to cure my dandruff! 

hopefully this works!

XOXO

apa apa sahaja

m ingat m kena fikir secara serius apa yang min nak dalam kehidupan m.
terutamanya berkenaan sabun min. 

sama ada min nak jual atau tak. 

dan kalau min nak jual, min nak jual apa sebenarnya...

m rasa m dah pernah post something like this before...


hmm..


but seriously, memang m kena fikirkan pasal ni.


m dah buat pendaftaran perniagaan sebelum ni tapi itu pun sebab nak dapatkan NaOH.

dan akhirnya, pendaftaran tu tinggal nama jerr..

sebab tak jual apa-apa pun dan tak war-warkan nama perniagaan tu pun pada sesiapa.


banyak sangat benda yang perlu m fikir, m buat.


m tak boleh nak jual sabun-sabun yang berlainan setiap kali.

m kena pastikan m ada beberapa sabun asas.

dan kemudian, baru hasilkan sabun baru.


tapi bosanlah buat sabun yang sama sampai bila-bila.. kan..


kan..?

Latest ITP Swirl soap (26Oct12)

Salam,

I've managed to make at least 8 bars of soap last Friday!!

Yea!!

It's been awhile, really!!

i was so so so hoping for it ..

and alhamdulillah, I managed to make some!!

The only available colours i have was 

the carbon (black-grey colour) and turmeric (yellow-orange).

no time to blend the pandan leaves that day for the colour green.

made do with whatever i have in hand!

tore off some dried roselle leaves.

if only i had immerse them in the distilled water earlier, 

i would have had a reddish purplish water. 

but i doubt that colour would stay after i've mixed lye into it 

(thats another adventure-haha)

feel free to feast your eyes!!

it was a last minute decision to do the ITP swirl

here's the soap, wet

Look at the picture above and tell me what you see  =)

i like the effect the flash made to the soap pic, all shiny!!

chao chao!!

p.s I've decided, for this post, that i put the date next to the post title

 so that I know when i made the soap.

i know, i should take notes but it is derived from the same recipe as before.

except for the EO's!

this time I managed to actually put almost the correct amount. 

i did say almost!

Patchouli, lavender, and lime..

i think!

oops!
