Dulce de leche

Dulce de leche itu apa?! Kedengerannya bule bangeeet hahaha,
Bermodal rasa ingin tau, akhrnya coba browsing untuk tahu lebih lanjut ttg si dulce de leche, eh ternyata.. intinya, karamelisasi (bukan vickynisasi) dari susu. Orang argentina n uruguay biasa pake jenis sirup ini untuk pelengkap hidangan penutup.

Ada beberapa versi cerita awal terciptanya dulce de leche, intinya karena ad orang bule yang masak susu dan gula lalu lupa mematikan kompor jadinya kelamaan masaknya dan berubah jadi karamel susu. Ternyata ga cuma gw aj yg suka lupa matiin kompor, tp kok ga pernah suatu resep mendunia... kalo ga gosong ya keasinan jadinya.

Setelah informasi akurat d dapat dari mulai cerita asal muasal sampai untuk apa mba dulce bisa d gunakan, mulaintertarik untuk tau lebih detail tentang cara pembuatan. Ada satu blog yang cerita tentang pengalamannya membuat dulce de leche cara praktis, karena kalau pakai cara biasa, butuh waktu 10 jam pemasakan dengan api kecil, eladalaaaah... lamo nian. Udah mulai ngeper, pgn browsing aja dimana bisa pesen, sampe akhrnya ketemu cara praktis tadi, cuma pakai susu kental amanis, d rebus masih dlm kondisi dalam kalengnya dengan menggunakan presto cuma 2jam.

Ga sabar pingin coba,kebetulan presto d rumah sejak beli setahun lalu baru d pake 2 kali, pulang kantor d sempetin mampir toko untùk beli sekaleng susu kental manis putih, sampai rumah langsung eksekusi. Tunggu tunggu tunggu tunggu, sampai sisa 30 menit lagi, eh ad telp dari temen lama yg katanya mau pedekate, ngobrol becanda becindi sampai akhrnya sejarah 200 tahun yang lalu terulang, ada yang lupa matiin kompor saat masak susu dengan api kecil, hahahaha.... harusnya 2 jam akhirnya sampai 6 jam. Waaaaa penasaran dengan hasilnya, apa tercipta dulce de leche varian baru?!

Ga ada dulce de leche varian baru, yang ada presto gw gosong tanpa sisa air sedikitpun. Masih penasaran dengan kondisi susu dalam kaleng, pas d buka... warnanya bukan kuning, coklat atau keemasan melainkan kering n gosong. Aish... gagal.. padahal udh ga sabar pingin tau rasanya.

2 hari kemudian nyoba lagi, masak dengan air lebih banyak dan waktu yang lebih sebentar, berusaha untuk ga mengulangi sejarah dengan komposisi yang salah hehehe... akhrnya setelah 2 jam lebih sedikit... voila.. this is dulce de leche, rasanya kayak permen alpenliebe dlm bentuk tekstur seperti selai, yummiiii....

Besoknya, bawa roti n dulce de leche ke kantor, bagi bagi temen seruangan, semua pada suka kecuali 1 orang yang memang ga suka susu hahaha...

Just be my self and be proud of it

Sometime, wondering......
what i want in live?! What i had received, what i had already given... why why why... my father said... never compare your love with others because each person has their own  fokus, their own goal, just straight to your goal... do what you wanna do, do what you like to do...
Stay fokus.. i dont wanna be like others, i wanna life my own live.. the way i want it to be...
Its gonna be hard but i will do harder and that will make me stronger...

Cheese lover

All i wanna say is... i luv cheese, more than i luv you...

He will always be my lil baby bro

'Sis, i wanna stay in a boarding room near college' with so many reason that he told me... one thing for sure, he just wanna be independent, he wanna have a new life and he hope that his family trust him.
Oke.. well done... i gave him trust as he want...

2 days ago, i took him to his room, told him what to do or not to do, be a fussy sister ever.. that actually, not ready to release his baby boy brother that wanna life independent hahaha... and then i went home by my self, on the way back, my thought flew to june 1996.

June 8th, 1996 was special day for my brother, the family gathered to celebrate his 'sunatan day'# forget the name in  english hehehe, at that time, my mom pregnant, doctor predicted the baby will born 2 weeks later. On that special day, my mom got very bussy that made her tired.

It was something special for me also, because on june 11th, i will have a study trip with all my friends from school. A day before, Papa took me to mall to buy some stuf, cloths, snacks, and everything i need, i packed in a bag, felt excited and couldnt wait untill morning.

The morning came, i was looking for mama n papa, couldnt find them but only my aunt.. 'where's mama, papa? I have to go to school' she told me that my mom was in hospital since last nite because she had a problems with her pregnancy, she had a surgery to born the baby, i was so sad, double sad... papa called from hospital and told me not to go to study trip.

Fortunately, she was oke, the baby was born healthy and cute, my mom stayed in hospital for a week, after i saw my lil bro, the sadness flew away, he was small, only 2600gr, i had a small lil baby bro... yipppiiieee

My parents actually expected a baby girl.. papa bought everything in pink hahaha... we welcomed him home with all pink stuf... i started to be his baby sitter since the second week of his age, i luv baby... sometime my mom left us to go somewhere, i tried to be a good baby sister, but as a 13th years old sister, i felt confuse what to do, until now my mom didnt know that my lil bro have ever drink baby oil-it wasnt in purpose, its an accident, i gave him a bottle of milk after that, i saw in a movie that milk could netralize medicine...and started to pray that my baby bro will be fine (sory boy)

It was a missery to made him take a nap, just like other babies, they always have extra energy to play around... ough.. i was tired after school and need to rest.. one day, i played a trick to made him sleep... he was on his 2nd or 3th years old... there was a guy that went around to asked for money, he pretend like someone that had stroke attacked, my lil bro thought that he was a zombie monster (perhaps) and he was scared of that guy... in the room, on the bed, i was played with my lil bro, in second i pretend that someone outside, trying to come in... "hear, can you hear a guy come in?! We have to sleep soon, if noe, he will take you far away from here" it was succesfull, i played the same tricks for years.. he never learn from his experience... hahahaha...

On 2000, he moved to bali with my parent, in 2001 i move to bali, we passed a hard day in bali, but it made us stronger, he become a kind and understanding son, being a nice brother. We become close each other. After he graduated from elementery school, he with my parent moved to jakarta to continue study.

In junior high school, he suprised us when he got scholarship at school, my mom asked " why you didnt told me that you had a test for scholarship?!" He answer simple "if i told you, mom, you will be very fussy asking me to study, and if i failed you will be angry, so i let it be a surprise, if i get the scholarship i will make you happy with the surprise, and if i dont, you will never get angry with me, win win solution and smart answer" hahaha

When he was in senior high school, he was very stressfull to face the final exam "why should i brought, why should i do" and he succed to make me felt the same... but finally, he made us proud..

Time flies when we have fun, now he is in college, but he will always be my lil baby brother... adeeeeeeeekkkkkkk..... hahahaha
Make us proud, we know you could, fighting!!!

Churros

8One day, it was trio kwek kwek time to hang out, find something new to eat or just chit chat spend our nite together after few months getting bizi without refreshing, it was weekend.. most of caffee or cozy place full of ababil, we just need a peacefull place without one of them, at last we choosed one place, not really cozy but... itbwas almost 9pm but we havent decided where to go, we passed that place, and there was enough space to park, so we stop bye. It will never be our favorite thought hahaha.

Checking the menu, ms british said ' churros, i want some' its new thing for us, so we decided to order some, and other new recipe from the menu (one of them was the fake cake in the jar) hehehehe. And we didnt satisfy with the snack that we ordered, we are really enjoy being food comentator.

After googling, i found out about churros,

churro, sometimes referred to as a Spanish doughnut, is a fried-dough pastry—predominantly choux—based snack. Churros are popular in Spain, France, the Philippines, Portugal, Ibero-America and the United States. In Spain, churros can either be thin (and sometimes knotted) or long and thick (porra). They are normally eaten for breakfast dipped in hot chocolate or café con leche
The origin of churros is unclear. One theory is they were brought to Europe by the Portuguese. The Portuguese sailed for the Orient and, as they returned from Ming Dynasty China to Portugal, they brought along with them new culinary techniques, including modifying the dough for You tiao also known as Youzagwei in Southern China, for Portugal. However, they modified it by introducing a star design because they did not learn the Chinese skill of "pulling" the dough (the Chinese Emperor made it a capital crime to share knowledge with foreigners). As a result, churros are not "pulled" but rather extruded out through a star-shaped die.
Another theory is that the churro was made by Spanish shepherds, to substitute for fresh bakery goods. Churro paste was easy to make and fry in an open fire in the mountains, where shepherds spend most of their time.

Actually, there is snack in indonesia that similarbwith churro, called cahkwe, its originally from china but famous in indonesia as one of the favorite snack. In indonesia, cahkwe been sold in store or as street food market. If churros served with hot chocolate of coffee, cahkwe served with sour and spicy sauce, yummiii... if i could choose, i will prefer cahkwe than churros, especially churros that we order in that cafee...

But my friend try another churros and she said... 'better taste than we tried before' maybe i'll try the other one hehehe

People around you

Have you ever been in the situation where you feel that there is no one you can trust?!

I remember wise word 'you are smart if you can learn from your mistakes, but you are smarter if you can learn from others experience'

Today i have learned something from my friend, precious lessons thats based on his true story.. i learned that People came to your life to colour your day, not only for blessing you but they gave you  lessons sometime. Some People stay in your life but others only stay in  your heart.

Sometimes in our life, we couldnt receive back what we have already give, but in our deep deep feelings... we want everyone do the same thing that we have done to them, "i have done a very good things, but why he couldnt do a good things from me?!" - have you ever thing about that?! Even only in your heart?!?

Or maybe 'i am not the best but im trying my best... but he cheated on me' as a human being, everyone ever have that feeling, i bet... if someone dont receive what he expect to receive, he become broken hearted, feel sad and not satisfy.

All you need to know that.. you cant force someone to the something for you, even if you have gave him the best thing you have ever done, because someone came in your life  for blessing you and give you a happy moment or give you experience as your lessons, they came to your life not by accident but for a reason.

The miles just keep rolling as the people even wait to say hello,
I've heard this life is over rated
but I hope that it gets better as we go

but your still on my lonley mind,
I think about you baby,
and I dream about you all the time,
Im here without you baby,

Family

Family is the most important thing in my life, my mood booster, all i wanna do in this world is just doing something that can make them proud of me, simple but so hard to do hehehe

My parents have a great sense of humor, in my childhood papa usually told me a funny story about his childhood in village, his friends and school. Papa love to give us surprise, sometime it isnt work hahaha but we respect that he is trying so hard to make us happy.

My mom, the best chef ever.. she will cook everything we want, even in 5 different meal just to satisfy our apetite hahaha....

My younger brother... he think that traveling is wasting time n money, but oneday i change his mind, i made him traveling by train to bondowoso, i made him hiking 3km to the top of ijen crater, he almost late to catch the train to go back to jakarta hahaha... dont worry, he come home safely and feel very happy

The youngest, he is the best bodyguard ever, family loving, he always ask 'wish me luck, pray for me' before doing something... but sometimes he is very annoying with his question... "what should i do? What should i wear?how?where?" Gggrrrrhhhh grown up baby!!

Everyone in family have their own character, sometime nice sometime annoying, but i love them... xoxoxo

Traveling, Tourism is in my blood

Traveling, Tourism.... is in my blood

i didn't realize it before, didn't know what i wanna be in the future, all i know - i love to learn English when i was in junior and senior high school. it was a short chit chat with my beloved papa in 2001, "what should i choose for my major?" he only said " what subject do you love the most, choose something you love to do because  you will learn it for 4 years in university. don't think what you wanna be in the future, just do what you love to do and in the end you will know that you choose the right one for your future."
now i know for sure that tourism is my passion, traveling is my hobby, developing tourism is my duty.
