Birthday Playdate

This year we wanted to celebrate Miss Kiki's birthday a little bit more special than the last few years. She hasn't had a party with outside school since her third birthday. Instead of hosting another party, this year we opted for a simple playdate at home.

As a cake alternative, I ordered these yummy macarons from Liel Patissier. The macaron stack used 2 dozens of assorted macarons and she was so nice to print me the banner to go with them.

For lunch I ordered the usual Nasi Tumpeng from Regina's Bakery. We regularly order from them for events and this time my friend there gave the whole tray as a present for Miss Kiki. How nice! Thank you so much for your generosity!!

So I had about a dozen girls playing in the house, and it seemed like they all had a good time. It took some time for them to warm up to a new place and new friends (this is a mix of friends from the different classes and schools), and it was raining in the morning.












When Miss Kiki found out that I had ordered Nasi Tumpeng for her playdate, she requested pasta to serve to her friends. So I made spaghetti bolognese for the kids and it was a hit! Miss Kiki was spot on after all.










The rain finally stopped so after lunch the kids were able to go in the trampoline.


We also had Ice Jelly drink from Kayu Manis, courtesy of my friend V. Thanks a lot, dear!


















Then we made a volcano.....










And we blew bubbles...








Then another friend came....


And more friends came!





I forgot to take a picture of the heart shaped macarons I ordered for the kids to take home... they are from Dulce Bene and are also yummy. Well, I managed to take a picture of the only two left....


And here is the picture of more wrist wallets!


My back was sore for a few days afterwards, but overall it was great! 

Thank you all who came and made Miss Kiki's day extra special!

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan.  I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically  "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Where To Eat in Medan, North Sumatra

  If you talk to anyone about Medan, the number one thing that comes up is definitely the food. The distinguished Chinese-Medanese cuisine is known to Indonesians as exceptionally delicious. Just as famous is the Batak cuisine with its pork dishes and others. Now that we've been to Medan, these are our recommendations! Macehat Coffee Macehat is famous for their Avocado Coffee drink, but they also offer snacks and coffee beans. I've heard so many rave reviews for this coffee shop, but my final verdict is: it's ok, just so so.

Nasi Tumpeng - Yellow Rice Mountain Recipe

Last week, one of my friends posted a picture from her daughter's birthday with a "Nasi Tumpeng" in it. Traditionally, in Java and some other places in Indonesia, this mountain-shaped rice dish is served for special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, and other celebrations. Below are some pictures of full blown Nasi Tumpeng platters. From satelitnews.co From bundatwinskitchen.files.wordpress.com From indochili.com Impressed yet? Well, the fore-mentioned friend offered me to come over to her place and learn how to make it so of course I gladly went! I am well aware of my cooking capability (and patience) so we made a much simpler (and smaller) version of it.  For the rice you need: 2 cups uncooked rice 1 cup coconut milk (you can put more or less depending on your preference) 1 stem lemongrass 2 bay leaves (dried or fresh) 2 lime leaves (dried or fresh) some turmeric (powder or fresh) water Here's the how to: ...
