tanah


semua org ada warna aura dia sendiri. hari tu. sy scan diri. i mean, oleh seorang profesional.
aura - biru. unsur - tanah.

tanah - Individu yang tergolong dalam kategori ini dikatakan memiliki sifat merendah diri dan tidak cerewet. Sifat merendah diri sememangnya sifat yang dipuji namun sekiranya keterlaluan, pasti sifat ia mampu mengundang impak negatif dalam diri kamu. Mungkin telah tiba masanya untuk kamu merubah sikap sambil lewa kamu itu dan membentuk keperibadian yang lebih tegas dan berpendirian. Namun itu bukan bermaksud kamu perlu melakukan perubahan secara drastik, sebaliknya mulakan setiap perubahan itu dengan perlahan-lahan. Oh ya! Kamu juga digambarkan sebagai individu yang sentiasa bersifat tenang dan bijak mengimbangi emosi. Apa kata, kamu kekalkan kedua-dua keperibadian postif tersebut dan baiki lain-lain kelemahan yang ada. Biasalah, setiap manusia yang lahir di dunia ini memiliki kelemahan dan kelebihan masing-masing.



happy birthday shahli.

Take a breath, Take it deep. Calm yourself', He says to me
If you play, you play for keeps. Take the gun and count to three.

Im sweating now, Moving slow, No time to think. My turn to go
And you can see my heart beating. You can see it through my chest.
Said I'm terrified but I'm not leaving. I know that I must pass this test
So, just pull the trigger

As my life flashes before my eyes. I'm wondering will I ever see another sunrise?
So many won't get the chance to say good-bye. But its too late to think of the value of my life



stranded
I can only take so much. These tears are turning me to rust
I know you're waiting there for me to come back. I'm too afraid to show

If it's coming over you. Like it's coming over me
I'm crashing like a tidal wave. That drags me out to sea
I wanna be with you If you wanna be with me
Crashing like a tidal wave I don't wanna be stranded



broken hearted
You're everything I thought you never were. And nothing like I thought you could have been
But still, you live inside of me, so tell me how is that? You're the only one I wish I could forget
The only one I love to not forgive And though you break my heart, you're the only one
And though there are times when I hate you 'Cause I can't erase
The times that you hurt me and put tears on my face
And even now, while I hate you, it pains me to say I know I'll be there at the end of the day

You say you've got the most respect for me But, sometimes I feel you're not deserving of me
And still, you're in my heart But you're the only one
And yes, there are times when I hate you, but I don't complain
'Cause I've been afraid that you would walk away. Oh, but now I don't hate you
I'm happy to say That I will be there at the end of the day




sorry 4 everything.





Whisky - with Haggis, Tatties and Neeps

Whisky - with Haggis, Tatties and NeepsJanuary 25th is of course the big night itself, the birthday of Scotland's Bard, Rabbie Burns. Tonight, Burns Suppers will be held around Planet Earth and The Bard's work will be recited and sung - while his national drink is drunk! Pictured to the right is the meal I have only moments ago finished (click on the image to enlarge it) and the recipe follows below. First of all, however, there is a certain formality which very much requires to be observed...

The Address to a Haggis is recited at every genuine Burns' Supper and constitutes the words of the poem of that name written by Burns. Very often - as in the video below - the Haggis will be piped in to the table before an honoured guest will give the required address. Even though you may understand little of it, I hope that you will spare a couple of minutes to watch the proper, Scottish address to the haggis as given in the video below. Simply click on the arrow in the centre of the screen to begin.



Method

Well, how can I follow that? In the first instance, you may note that there are no specified ingredients in tonight's post. That is quite deliberate and down to the fact that a Burns' Supper is not big on quantities. It is about whisky, haggis, tatties, neeps and whisky - yes, I know! :)

The first step is to determine the cooking instructions for the haggis which you have purchased. They will vary hugely but will either be provided on the packaging or by your butcher. If you have a haggis of about half a pound, it may well feed four people - I am not joking! When the haggis' intestine is burst, the meat "flows" forth, so allow for around two pounds of potatoes and a whole suede turnip.

Haggis is usually boiled in the skin but may be required to be cooked in the oven. Your tatties will require to be peeled and cooked for around twenty-five minutes in simmering, salted water. Your turnip (neeps) will take slightly less time, so get the tatties on before preparing the turnip.

The parsnip and pea mash that accompanies our meal tonight takes the least cooking time of all. The parsnip should be peeled and simmered in salted water for ten minutes. At that time, two handfuls of frozen garden peas should be added, and cooked for a further three minutes.

When everything is ready, the tatties should be mashed, as should the neeps, separately. The haggis should be put in to a dish, to be mixed with a fair dram of the single malt. The parsnip and peas should also be drained and mashed.

A bowl should then be lined with clingfilm and firstly the haggis, then the tatties, then the neeps added, in equal portions. The mix should be pressed down firmly before being up-ended on to a plate. The edges of the clingfilm should then be held while the bowl is removed and the clingfilm subsequently pulled away.

The parsnip and pea mix should be shaped with a couple of teaspoons and added as garnish, along with a wee sprig of parsley.

PS Fancy a pudding/dessert? You can't go far wrong with Cranachan...

We went near the Maremagnum mall, and I weared my new Topshop's coat... a big bargain, because it only costed me 15 € (and it was 110€!)


And you can see there too my new boots from Aces of London, I bought them at Berlin only for 49€... the were 119€!!

Yes, I'm the bargain girl!

Happy Birthday, Rabbie Burns! : Food Tip of the Day - Monday, January 25th, 2010

Today's food tip of the day is very different in form from any that I have ever given before in the sense that it is not my tip but that of The Bard himself, Rabbie Burns!

The Selkirk Grace was not written by Rabbie Burns, merely adapted by him in his inimitable style from a much older version. It reads:

"Some hae meat and canna eat,
and some wad eat that want it,
but we hae meat and we can eat,
and sae the Lord be thankit."


Later on this evening, I will be including on this blog details of how I enjoyed my own Burns Supper, which I will begin preparing very shortly. In the meantime, why not take the fun Burns quiz, linked to below, in order to test your own knowledge of Rabbie Burns? There are only ten questions, each of them having five possible answers. Be sure to include in the Guestbook details of your score, then send it on to challenge your friends!
