FAKE GREEN PEAS (KACANG HIJAU)

I believe that many of our Muslim friends have started buying cakes, sweets and other titbits to be served during Hari Raya. Not forgetting those nuts like Pistachios, cashew nuts and green peas. Talking about the green peas, I received and email from my friend regarding the 'fake' green peas. Aiyoyo amma!! I thought that people in China can only imitate electronic devices and garments but green peas too???

Green peas are green rounded pea seeds that are sweet and starchy in taste. Green peas contains twice the protein of most vegetable, so they are a healthier substitute for meat. Three quarters cup of peas provides 6 grams of protein, plus thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium and 645 units of vitamin A.

Unfortunately most of food industries in developing nations cheating the customers with fake greens peas which are prepared from toxic chemicals (dyes). These industries preparing the green peas form brown peas (cheaper) by soaking them in dye solution for overnight.

All these chemicals have been banned by US food and drug administration in 1974 itself. Frequent consumption of fake green peas leads to colon and bladder cancer. All these fake green peas banned in US, Canada, all European countries and other developed countries.

Identification of fake green peas:

1. Put the peas in boil water for 30 seconds, water turns to green color.

2. After consumption check your tongue to observe green color stains and light bitter in taste.

Symptoms:

1. Stomach irritation, pain or acidity.

2. Urine turns to light green color.

3. Mild head ache.

Therefore, I suggest that everytime we eat the dried peas, don't chew them first. Let them sit on our tongues for a couple of minutes. If our tongues turn green then that's it. Green dye is involved.

KD SMOOCHED RL, MWAHHHHHSSS!

Can't get enough of her lips...

One thing that matters, one thing that always tickles my mind whenever I see Asians kissing. The suck each other lips like sucking straw. Wrong technique. Haha. Watch Indonesia & Hindi movies, you will understand me. Why can't they perfectly kiss like in those Hollywood movies? Damn.

KD and her sister, Yuni Shara

See how Raul Lemos and Kris Dayanti do it? It's like, "come to Papa.. mooch mooch.." style. Ewww... Dato' Siti Nurhaliza who is a good friend of Kris Dayanti already commented in the news that Kris Dayanti (KD) has done it inappropriately in public. So does KD's sister, Yuni Shara who regretted to see the act during a press conference recently.


... +_+, poor Bu Atha (Silvalay Noor Athalia), I agree with her. Currently, Raul - Atha are still married, legally. Obviously it makes KD now a total bi**h. Totally.

I wonder how Anang and their kids would react?

WAKA WAKA EH EH, CUZ THIS IS WORLD CUP FEVER

Who doesn’t talk about the WC this month? As what the TV ads says, once in four years for 31 days everyone goes crazy with the game. Soccer or football is definitely the game of life. My brother, Rodriguez was named after one of the 1982’s WC players from Spain and I grew up hearing some big names like Diego Armando Maradona, Marco Van Basten, Ruud Gullit, Juergen Klinsman, just to name a few. If talking about EPL, our family’s team is definitely Liverpool. Being a fan of Liverpool is like a family heirloom. Must support Liverpool, we're like family - You’ll Never Walk Alone. Haha. Dad would be smiling up there if he reads this.

20 years later…. Soccer still the no.1 game in the world but with different views of liking. New names like Beckham, Owen, Giggs, Lampard, Zidane, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho were taking places. These footballers lives are getting more popular day by day. Paid in millions of dollars and pounds per contract, having hot babes and spouses plus some wild gossips to spice up their lives.

Girls and (some guys) adore the players not because of their skills but their looks. Now do you believe me if I tell you that Cristiano Ronaldo male fans are outnumbered by the female fans out there? I still remember when the world gone crazy a couple of years ago upon seeing Ronaldo and Bipasha Basu’s kissing picture on internet.

Mere naam Inspector Ronaldo Sahab hai, hehehe....

And last year, Paris Hilton was spotted partying with the Portuguese hunk. This year, saw it on E! News too.

Paris: My place tonite?

Nah! Tell me if any female readers in this blog have that ‘thing’ for Ronaldinho? How many girls out there would scream like crazy when they watch Ronaldinho on the move? Nada!!!!

I ain't cute enough for the chicks - Ronaldinho

I was watching the match between Japan and Netherlands while doing this entry. Grrrr..Japan. Frustrated with Japan I am now looking forward to seeing my favourite team - ITALY. Just see what Italy can do this year. Haha.

Oh, I guess everyone will watch the FourFourTwo (??? CORRECT OR NOT), at Astro Sport before the any match begins. Tony Cottee and Abbas Saad will do the prediction and commentating the matches. Still remember Abbas Saad? He played for Johor in the early 90's. Well, during that time, he's HOT!!

The younger Abbas Saad

The latest Abbas Saad. Still a cutie.

So, what is your favourite team and player? Share with me. Oh, by the way, what happened to Spain and England?????

With Love,

p/s: Would like to wish Happy Father's Day to my FIL and especially hubby. I love you and thanks for being a dutiful and loving father to our child. To Daddy up there, our love for you will bloom forever, we never forget to pray for you everyday. We miss you Daddy. Love always. England sucks big time too, Daddy.

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU.....

For not cleaning your a** for two days.

If it was me, I would have gone scratching my a** the whole two days.

By the way, didn't he go passing motion in two days? Your intestine must be very big. What a bowel!!



That's the most disgusting story about one's cleanliness so far being published and aired. Yuxx!!

LIFE MUST GO ON AND I SURVIVE MY 'COME BACK'.

Woots!

Another busy week for Miss Coki.  My creativity and my brain seem to jam lately.  I dunno how to blog anymore-kah? Haha.. touch wood.... touch wood.... :p

First, works are works so I leave it on my desk, left untold. +_+   OK.  I'll be singing again, shaking, not rocking the stage at Etiqa's Roadtour this Friday and Saturday.  So to my fans (do I have any? ahahahahaha..) you can come over to Waterfront, next to James Brooke Cafe to see me performing live.

I'm booked for next month too, but it isn't confirmed yet.  But then, I found out that I'm taken out of  from the performer list.  It's OK.  Everyone has their own day maybe it's fated for others.  Think positively!  Yay!!

d plan was to hold a nite tribute to Kuching's famous local band which song has gone internationally.  Go and find the band itself.  *chuckle*.  Damn.  Now I am chopped as a Jazz singer, huhu what to do.  Hey, I've never thought that I can sing jazz when I tried to render some of the songs that my hubby improvises or jazzes them up.  OK, so-so.. you tell. Haha.

I dunno I'm gonna sing until when, but I know one day till I get senile I still feel that I am a Diva.  Haha!

AKADEMI FANTASIA 8 SIGHTING! @ EVERRISE BDC

No. They didn't come to Kuching. It was something that I saw whilst waiting for hubby in the car the other day. Hubby went shopping for some tomatoes for our burgers.



Then, I saw AF8 poster !! They even put the 'TERKELUAR' (VOTED OUT) sticker on Shah!!!

I wonder why Akademi Fantasia 8 this year is so cold, don't you think so? I even hardly listening to my colleagues chirping about this reality TV show lately. The only question that they would ask each other, "Who was voted out last night?". Hehe. 

So far, the bags had been given to Shah, Ema, Anum and Aliff.  I'm looking forward to see Sarawakian Daus and Farina in the finals.

MEE PRESIDEN (PRESIDEN INSTANT NOODLES) ROCKS!

I love instant noodles and who doesn't right?  DUH.  Might not an avid eater but keeping and topping up the stocks is a must at our house.  Found these two pictures which were taken few days ago so I thought to put up here, why not?

This is the way I like it.  Two packets of boiled noodles (a packet is way too small in portion for a big size eater like me, ahaks!) and complimented with poached egg.  One is adequate.

Closed up, more light.  Sorry for the broken yolks for I was rushing to watch 'Chef at Home', I love eating noodles with a cup of black coffee while watching my favourite programme on TV.  Hey, what's your favourite noodles then?  Share the story with me, will you?


p/s:  Condolences to the family of the late Din Beramboi.  I am his biggest fan so today was kinda sad day for radio ERA listeners especially to those who follow the 'RIUH PAGI DI ERA'.  Rest in peace Mr. Joker!  You're always in our hearts.  


With Love,

DON'T TRUST FAKE BEGGARS!

I've got these pictures from my friend via email.  Taken somewhere in China showing how desperately people are nowadays plunging for money.  So let us scroll down the pictures together.

A lady with a man lying on her lap, the man looks very very ill and dying.  See the young man tipping money?  It's showtime!

OK.  The gig is off now.  Time to leave the place and unleash the drama king and queen.  Oh, don't forget to calculate the catch for the day.

La la la.... left right left right.... I wonder where they are heading to?

Oh, it's lunchtime.  "Towkay!  Two bowls of noodles!  Dry one!!" .  Thanks to all good Samaritans who have contributed before so these two rascals don't have to work hard like dogs, like us.  Well readers, life goes on!

With Love,

AKADEMI FANTASIA 8 : DISCRIMINATION OF SIZE, I RECKON

I don't care if you disagree with me but I just can't help it to write it down here.  Malaysians have witnessed Shah AF8 left the building tonite.  It's not a big shocking thing.  Remember Aizat?  How about Bob?  Idayu anyone?  Those voices are awesomely good.  I still remember when Idayu sang, TIADA LAGI TANGISAN, it was far away, far, far away better than Ema of AF8.  Well, Malaysians generally are so typical.  Not all but some percentage had proven so.  Am not the biggest fan of Akademi Fantasia but as an avid follower, the flow of this programme is definitely predictable.  Trust me.

Last year's winner was Hafiz who is a Sarawakian.  Steady urang Serawak!  Akim, oh I love him so much, I mean his voice but he came in third and Aril .... not a fan of him, was second.  Aril, controversially voted in after being voted out so I wonder what is so special about him?  Because his brother is a not so popular singer turn TV presenter Izwan Pilus?  Because he's good looking and desperately cute?  He looks like a possessed goat in DRAG ME TO HELL, excuse me... because he can shuffle????? Please donk.  I saw him shuffling in AF and also in 'KAU DAN AKU' at Astro.  He looks damn funny. I mean he shuffles funnily.  I saw shuffling videos at YouTube but nothing like Aril's.  Whenever you watch the Brand's ads at TV you will see that he's the most focused celebrity, more than Hafiz and Akim.  The best part now??  He's replacing Jimmy Shanley in Trek Selebriti.  How about that??  I wonder how young girls out there including my daughter adore him.  It's their choice right?  But sorry for Aril from me.  Sorry I just can't.  

HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT I'M NOT HANDSOME?  I CURSE YOU, I SUMMON DEMON LABIA TO CURSE YOU.... (Oh, Lady Labia Majora or Minora???? Hahhahahaa....)

AF8 this year gathers very good voices all over Malaysia.  Wow. I'm impressed so far, maybe most of the participants have equipped themselves with good preparation.  I hope, Malaysians out there who happen to read this blog.  Please make your bestest choice.  Bestest OK? Haha.  Seriously.  Judge for talent not the looks.  So far I am eyeing on Ain. There's something about this girl and needs to be dug out.

This has given a deep impact to my self-esteem.  FYI, next April precisely on 11th, I will be joining other friends busking at the Waterfront in conjunction with the World Health Day.  Thousands of people are expected to come.  Like other big size singers like Bob, Adibah Noor, Dina...... do you think they will laugh once they see this big size singer with that little microphone?

Pasti berjaya di Akademi Fantasiaaaa!!!!!!!!

p/s:  Just read my friend, Budiey's blog and found out that Yanie Mentor passed away today.  She's a very talented singer with very good husky voice.  God loves her more than us do.  I hope her family is doing good and condolence from us.  Rest in peace beautiful voice.  We will miss you.

With Love,

ABORTED, ABUSED, ABANDONED BABIES - HUMANS ARE ACTING MORE LIKE BEASTS NOWADAYS

I hate to read newspaper lately. I'm dying, OK? Dying to get another baby but those so called human beings that equipped with satanic minds are dumping theirs just like that???? Civilized people don't throw away their rubbish, they recycle them. How could you dump the innocent little breathing creatures just simply like that? Masa main memang sedap, lupa Tuhan, lupa dunia. Bila dah tau perut berisi, konon-konon nak simpan. Lepas beranak sedap-sedap je letak tepi longkang, depan rumah orang, depan pintu surau. Budak-budak sekarang memang advanced. Belajar belum tentu pass tau. Those yang kat IPTS/IPTA berlagak mengalahkan officers yang dah 10 tahun bekerja. You guys are in higher learning institution, matured enough to know what a condom for. STUPID BASTARD!!

Whenever you guys are having pre-marital sex on a cheap hotel bed next time, while humping your partner, please think about the consequences - parents approval of your partner, responsibility to bear a child - milk, diapers, jobs, insurance etc etc. The 10 minutes pleasures actually can cause you suffer for the next 10 years! Think about it.

I don't have heart to throw away God's creation as cute as my kitten, Bujang. OMG.. so cute.

.... how can anyone resist to play with such cute angel? She's my 1 year plus niece, named Ashlyn. I love everything about her because she's so adorable. Look, I even can't resist to bite her fingers.

Think wisely before doing something stupid, little kids. You're not adults until you act like one.

With Love,

JESSICA 'XIAOPING' ALBA

Cantik kan Amoi ini? She reminds me of the fellow Singaporean's blogger, Xia Xue.

Her name is Xiaoping. What a beautiful name just as gorgeous as the owner. Poor Xiaoping.

I read about her on Utusan Malaysia just now and felt so pity at her. She determines to change her appearance by doing makeover. A facelift more specifically. Kalau setakat hendak mentouch up kan muka I kira OK la tu tapi yang mengerikan she decided to do plastic surgery, operasi plastik kata orang Indo. The reason? To win her boyfriend's heart back and her boyfriend's is obsessed with Jessica Alba. Her beau even asked her to wear a blonde wig so that she might look like Jessica. OMGWTF. What a sick guy.

With her current look, she can actually fish out any guys in this whole wide world whom are much more better than your very own so called bf. Show some girl power lah dik oiii. Apa sudah habis ke stok-stok Ah Beng kat China tu sampai you sanggup nak alter your gorgeous face, it's a gift from God for God's sake.



If comparing Jess' ol appearance, she also had done some face lifting. I believe. So why bothering yourself to get her altered look? Furthermore, Xioping is now pleading for some donations in order to do her facelift.

Well, human beings will never get satisfied with what they possess so readers, be thankful.

THE LATEST NEWS FOR SLU (SECRETARIES LIKE US)

Photo 1: Errkk.. stupid hair on my forehead. Hate curly hair. Let me handle the curl first. No curly hair allowed. Seriously.



Photo 2: Hepppp!!!! Ehh? NO. Wait! Eyes too small. Haha. No small eyes. *lol So sepet.



Photo 3: Yes. Eyes are bigger a bit. Haaa.. curly hair is hidden now.

Now we can do the talk.

Ignore the pics. I just wanna show you guys my first day of working in 2010 and to all my Secretary buddies, starting 1st January 2010, all of us who previously holding the post 'Pembantu Tadbir (Kesetiausahaan) N17 will be promoted to 'Setiausaha Pejabat (N27)'. Please refer to the latest circular (Please click)

Firstly, would like to congrats each other - finally.... Yes, we knew and we heard about some pros and cons against it. Personally, I am waiting for our officer to come back from KL, bringing along the good news whether the post is applicable at our department.

Salary wise, the increment is just for a hundred plus which is quite unfair for my batch. The starting salary for fresh secretaries post now is RM1400++ just few hundreds behind us who had worked for 10 years. Is it hard to push our salary to our current scale accordingly? We deserve to sit at the Asst. Admin Officer's post just like our friends from other courses, graduated from UiTM?

My dearest friends, don't worry, instead of the new increment, we'll benefit the ehem ehem, ITKA's allowance and for those who had served for more than 10 years will get 30 days annual leave plus other allowances - Perumahan, Trengkas Dwi Bahasa, Pembantu Khas and Wilayah. Cool ain't it.

Well, we're just waiting for the day. Can't wait to see some reactions from the hospital side. Most of the Secretaries working there are actually doing clerical works.

Shit. I've been dreaming the big 3 in front of my pay sheet next month which is actually a broken dream. Haha.


With Love,

I NEED HOLIDAY - DON'T FEEL LIKE WORKING

Hey y'all! *cry* I wanna be at home now. Checking the weather out there, it's brightly shining and oh yes, there are some vacant at the parking space. Pak Engku is coming tomorrow to visit us, after 2 months OMG really miss him. +_+ Yay!!

Yesterday was a long torture. Workloads killing us. Luckily Dr. JoJo came and saved our day. He brought along;







RAMBUTANS!!

The rambutan (pronounced /ræmˈbuːtən/, Nephelium lappaceum) is a medium-sized tropical tree in the family Sapindaceae, and the fruit of this tree. It is native to Malaysia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, although its precise natural distribution is unknown. It is closely related to several other edible tropical fruits including the Lychee, Longan, and Mamoncillo. It is believed to be native to the Malay Archipelago.[1]. Rambutan in Indonesian, Filipino and Malay literally means hairy caused by the 'hair' that covers this fruit. In Thailand the fruit is known as ngoh (เงาะ). In Panama, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua, it is known as mamón chino. There is a second species regularly for sale at Malay markets which is known as "wild" rambutan. It is a little smaller than the usual red variety and is colored yellow. The outer skin is peeled exposing the fleshy fruit inside which is then eaten. It is sweet, sour and slightly grape like to the taste.

Talking about rambutan, so sayang our rambutans back at old house in Kota Samarahan. My BIL had chopped down the two trees because by hook or by crook they will be chopped down soon. FYI, my parents' old house will be demolished as the place has been taken by the developers. Then, they were given a double-storey terrace house as a compensation, which is now has been occupied for 2 months. *Luckily my late father had spent only 3 nights there. :(* Our rambutans are bigger and juicier than these. You will say that I'm bluffing when I describe the flesh, OMG, the flesh is very thick and the seed is tiny and small.

Hence, what can be more perfect than having sweet rambutans while reading one of your favourite blogs??



Right Farah?? *LoL*


Happy working readers. Happy tortured too. ;)

R.I.P to Brittany Murphy. I love her since the movie 'Clueless'. She used to be so chubby and I know some of you out there might agree that Ashley Tisdale @ Sharpay Evans of High School Musical resembles her. The industry had lost another shining star... :(

SORRY. NO MORE FACEBOOKING ALLOWED DURING OFFICE HOURS

Not quite a surprised to some of us. We have been talking about it ages ago. Yes, the time has come. Bye bye to Facebook but hello to Facebook via personal broadband, starting today. *chuckle. I don't feel mad actually (tapi sempat meroyan kejap) but one thing I'd like to note here, how shallow the mindset of older, ICT illiterate higher ranking officers in the so-called public service without realizing that most of their employees bring their own broadband to the office? Memiliki broadband sendiri adalah satu keperluan, bukan lambang kemewahan sekarang ko tahu ke tidak?

So next time, please, step both of your feet outside the office, listen and look around. Ek eleh, ko sendiri kat ofis pun suruh kerani ko taip surat, what do you know about ICT? Go and bang your head on the wall. OK. Enough said. Have to wash my face. My pimples are about to explode. +_+

IT'S A BIRD, IT'S A PLANE, NO! IT'S SUPARWONO!

Yes. Meet Mr. Suparwono, who was almost claimed as the tallest guy in the world. Almost, even though he was announced once. Hehe. This guy, originally from Lampung, Indonesia is said, having his big portion of dish in the form of 3kgs of rice and at least 15 eggs per day katanya! (Imagine if he farts..? ) I should get my Gabby to read this. Mesti anak gadis ku itu melopong since she loves eggs so much, tsk..tsk.... (",).



Suparwono is measured, 2.42 m! hmm.. sayang nye cuma 0.05 inci je rendah dari pemegang rekod dunia sekarang that is.. *drumrolls - Mr. Sultan Kosen from Turkey! Height: 2.47 m (8 ft 1.2 in). I wonder how long are these guys genital parts, can anyone assume? *cheeky.



This is Sultan Kosen.



Anyway, it's a good thing for him as he's appointed as the Ambassador of Lampung.
Ko ado???? Nan ado nyahhh!!

Jangankan Duta Lampung, Jalan Duta, Duta Negara, Duta band, Lara Dutta pun jauh sekali, so with a humble bow, I walked away with my title, Duta Kolok Mee, can anot? Yes, I can!




Am not short, just under height,
