How To Make: Heat 2 tbs Margarine, saute the Shrimp till golden brown, put some Salt and Pepper. Put aside. Heat 1 tbs of Margarine, saute Garlic for 5 seconds, toss the Balado instant, stir for 3 minutes, add some water, atir, add the Shrimp. Stir for 3 more minutes. Serve with rice and sliced Cucumber for the Balado seasoning is pretty hot. Easy peasy!

My Face On A Book Cover!

About a year ago, my friend , Raggy Adam from DeviantArt asked me if he could use one of my stock photo for a book cover tender. Of course I said yes. I would love to be in a book cover! Yes yes yes! :D So after a few months, I found out from him that the image was accepted. Yay! Oh, the book title is: Dyah Pitaloka, Korban Ambisi Politik Gajahmada. Yeah, it’s in Indonesian. Back in January ‘08 I went to Indonesia. I found the book in one of the biggest book store in Jakarta! Wow! I bought several, to give to my family and friends, hee hee.. It’s not everyday I become a book cover model you know. ^__^

Cutie McFlirty

You might not understand this if you are not a beadmaker, or if you’re a normal person. :P I get too attached to my beads sometimes. I named them according to their personalities. I made this pink turtle bead which is my most fave, using my favorite glass Messy Pink, I named her ‘Cutie McFlirty’. Cause she is super cute! Cutie is one of the biggest bead I ever made, she’s a chubster. I was so excited to see how she turned out. I guess I was mesmerized by her big blue eyes, I forgot to keep her warm while decorating her body. So she cracked during finishing touches, gave me a minor heart attack. I remember screaming the bad word. I was devastated. I spent about half an hour on her, damn it! Anyway, pulled myself together, I heat her up again, she is in 1 piece, but not sellable. I was going to keep her anyway. Update: Cutie lives with my cousin now, to prove that I can part with my favorite beads. (Boo hoo!)
