Serawa durian yummeh

DH was asking me to make this serawa durian, he even bought 2 durians just for this.. hmm.. actually we, kelantanese not really know how to cook this, and I never tried before. Luckily I did see my MIL cooked this last time. Pretty easy though... but then my DH said mine is not as tasty as his mom's :P  of course not!  I cooked it with evaporated milk while she used coconut milk :P 

Here it is :

Pretty easy though...  

Put durian, coconut milk or evaporated milk, brown sugar/white sugar & pandan leaves. Errr.. a bit of salt for seasoning. Then stir slowly once in while in slow fire. :)   Can be eaten with bread ( DH favorite!)

5 Things You Didn't Know About Breast Milk


So sorry for not updating, but surely I have a lot to tell!! ha ha. It will back dated post soon...  or shall I say in the future? Sorry, was pretty busy with so many things lately. I'll let  you know what occupied my time in one of my post, Insya Allah.

While checking on my email this morning, I have this popped up from one of my prescription email. Do you girls know about this?  You've heard that breastfeeding is best nutritionally and a great way to bond with your baby. But there are some things about breast milk you might not know. Here are the facts.

  1. It changes based on your baby's needs. Unlike formula, the milk you produce adapts its composition to suit your baby's nutritional requirements.
  2. You can donate it to save lives. When babies are born prematurely, breast milk can greatly increase their chances for survival. However, not all mothers are able to produce or supply breast milk for their very low birth weight infants. A donation of your excess breast milk could have a significant impact on the lives of these infants and their families.
  3. It may make your baby smarter. Studies have shown that breastfed babies have higher IQs than their bottle-fed counterparts. This small but statistically significant difference may be due in part to DHA, a brain-boosting fatty acid found in breast milk.
  4. It helps make diapers less stinky. Granted, it's never going to smell like roses, but your baby's poop will smell a tad sweeter if he's breastfed. This is due in part to the fact that the fats in your milk separate more easily than in cow's milk.
  5. It can help develop his taste buds. Breast milk takes on the taste of whatever you're eating. Thus, it expands your baby's palate at the start, boosting the odds he'll want to try new foods when the time comes to start solids.  

    Number 5 is my favorite :P  how about you?
