MY DREAM HOUSE

For the last 3 weeks i had been overwhelming by a big house cleaning, i've thrown away all of the stuff that we no longer need and some of the stuffs that still in a good condition, i will give it to charity. It's a real hard work, because altough its been three weeks already. It's still not done yet. But, it feels sooo good once you saw the room, drawer, closet become neat and prettier. It is so easy to find things now. Make me so happy with the results. The room look brighter too..and once its done, i can move to decorating part. Which will be a very fun and exciting progress.

So, i want to share what i browse in beautiful mess blog. I saw a reference near my dream house. Its childlike, pretty, artsy, unique and lots of fun things. It's Sherri Bemis's house. Let's take a peek..

 "I grew up just a stones throw away from what would become my future home! My parents house that we moved into when I was 15 is only a couple of blocks from mine and Max's 'Pink Palace'.We jokingly call it that, as the house was built in the 1930s and has a slight 'dollhouse' vibe. When we bought it, it desperately needed to be painted and luckily, I have a very easy-going husband, who was more than happy to let me play out my childhood dream of living in a pink house (my favorite color)! So we painted it a beautiful pale pink."

 "Max and I are avid readers, and he also has a fantastic comic book collection. So we built out the second living room in the house to be a library! I'm working on finishing up free-hand paintings on the sides of all the shelves."

 "One of my favorite finds is a simple wooden dresser that was super shabby. I painted it for my daughters nursery, while I was pregnant with her. It's cherry red with gold stripes and whimsical bumble bees now, and somehow I just knew it would fit her personality—it totally does! I love redoing old pieces and making them our own."

 "Max basically lets me have free reign on the decorating, which is almost like walking into my brain when you walk through the door. It's quirky, whimsical, childlike and a bit cluttered but also romantic! Haha. It's always evolving too. My rule is simple: Don't decorate with anything you don't absolutely love. I also wanted to create a world that was fun for kids to grow up in. So the furniture is to be jumped on, the 'things' are to be touched."

 "It's been  a little over two years. And since the house was a sort of fixer-upper, we spent a lot of time redoing the boring things first: plumbing, electricity ect. But once we started getting settled in, it's just become our evolving project—always changing and tweaking things to make them feel or look better."

"I live in my dream home. To some it may be just another old house, with creaks and drafts, oddly placed closets or cabinets. But to us it's perfect. It's our 'Pink Palace'."

HOMEMADE PANCAKE FROM SCRATCH

Hello everyone, so happy im here again. This past two days i've been so busy cleaning and reorganizing my house..Well its not done yet, still in progress but im so happy that i can make my family feel better at home and its starting to get more and more comfortable because it's really make a huge impact in daily life. 

Today im gonna make pancake from scratch. The good thing is, we can really control the pancake we want to by making it from scratch. I follow this tutorial and its really easy and fun to make. But, i think this recipe is only for 1-2 people. You can double or triple the ingredients if you want to make for a bunch of people.

Ingredients : 

100g flour 

2tbs sugar (less sugar for me)

1 tbs corn starch

1/2 tbs baking powder

a pinch of salt

1 egg

100 ml milk

1 tbs melted butter (i used butter instead of cooking oil)

 Prepare everything first

 Measure

 Strain the flour, sugar, corn scratch, baking powder, salt to make sure there;s no lump

 Mixed together with a whisk 

 This is the wet ingredients, beat the egg first 

 Pour the milk and mixed it again

 Pour the dry ingredients  

 and melted butter. Please dont mixed everything to well, just mixed it a bit (this is the thing that i got from different tutorial) because when you over mixed it..the pancake will become tough and nobody love tough pancake. You want the pancake to be all fluffy. 

 Leave the pancake for 5-10 minutes and heat the pan. You can use non stick frying pan or if you dont have it, you can use butter/ margarine so the pancake wont stick.

 Pour the mixture

 If the bubbles appear, you can flip the pancake

 Love it 

Place a butter and pour maple syrup or honey. You can eat it with your favourite food, jam, or ice cream too. Even with egg and sausage would be nice :D

See you soon. Hope you have a great day.
