Just for remind my self, for everyone specially the ladies ....

Semoga bermanfaat.....


SAFETY TIPS

Because of recent abductions In daylight hours, refresh yourself of these things to do in an emergency situations...
This is for you, and for you to share with your wife, your children and everyone you know.
After reading these 10 crucial tips, forward them to someone you care about.
It never hurts to be careful in this crazy world we live in.


1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do : The elbow is the strongest point on your body.If you are close enough to use it, do! 2. Learned this from a tourist guide. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse,DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM!!!!!
Toss it away from you. Chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you,
and he will go for the wallet/purse. RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car,kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.
4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating,working, etc.,and just sit doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.DON'T DO THIS!!!
The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on
the passenger side, put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go.AS SOON AS YOU GET IN THE CAR LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.. If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF;
Repeat:
DO NOT DRIVE OFF!!!!
Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car.
Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat They will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes bail out and run.
It is better than having them find your body in a remote location.
5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:
A.) Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor, and in the back seat
B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their car.
C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side.
If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into
the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out.
IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead)
6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is so true especially at NIGHT
7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN!
The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; and even then,it
most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN, Preferably in a zig -zag pattern!
8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP IT
may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy,the serial killer,was a good-looking,
well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He
walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked 'for help' into his vehicle which
is when he abducted his next victim.
9. Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird.. The police told her 'Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door..'
The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over.
The policeman said, 'We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do,
DO NOT open the door.' He told her that they think a serial killer hasa baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped
off a baby. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that
they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night
10. Water scam! If you wake up in the middle of the night to hear all your taps outside running
or what you think is a burst pipe, DO NOT GO OUT TO INVESTIGATE!
These people turn on all your outside taps full ball so that you will go out to investigate and then attack. Stay alert, keep safe, and look out for your neighbors!


Please pass this on This e-mail should probably be taken seriously because the Crying Baby Theory was mentioned on America 's Most Wanted when they profiled the serial killer in Louisiana I'd like you to forward this to all the women you know. It may save a life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle..
I was going to send this to the ladies only,
but GUYS,
if you love your mothers, wives, sisters,daughters, etc.,you may want to pass it onto them, as well.
Send this to any woman you know that may need
to be reminded that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it and it's better to be safe than sorry..

Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this. It may save your life or love one's life. GBU

P.S Jangan lupa untuk slalu bawa pepper sprayer in ur purse and learn how to use it

Kayu manis

Sekedar info sodara-sodara tentang manfaat kayu manis : silakan simak di bawah ini , terus terang referensinya aku copas dari blognya menujuhijau, thank you sharing nya untuk the authors :)
Sementara itu bagi yang punya darah tinggi, asam urat, perut kembung, masuk angin, mag, dan diare, manfaatkan resep berikut ini.

Untuk mengatasi tekanan darah tinggi, ambillah 2 jari kayu manis, 10 gram asam trengguli, 10 gram kencur, 15 gram daun sena, dan 20 gram daun saga. Lalu, rebuslah dengan 500 cc air hingga tersisa 200 cc. Air rebusan tersebut disaring dan diminum selagi hangat.

Resep lainnya, 1 jari kayu manis, 10 gram asam trengguli, 60 gram rambut jagung, dan 30 gram daun seledri, direbus dengan 600 cc air hingga tersisa 200 cc. Airnya disaring dan dinimum selagi hangat.

Untuk asam urat, ambillah sebesar ibu jari kayu manis, 5 gram biji pala, 5 butir kapulaga, 5 butir cengkih, 200 gram ubi jalar merah, 10 butir merica, dan 15 gram jahe merah. Ramuan tersebut direbus dengan 1.500 cc air, dan biarkan hingga tersisa 500 cc. Kemudian disaring dan tambahkan 200 cc air susu cair dan diminum.

Resep lain, seibu jari manis, 15 gram jahe merah, 5 gram biji pala, 5 butir kapulaga, 5 butir cengkih, dan 4 lembar daun sosor bebek. Rebuslah ramuan tersebut dengan 600 cc air hingga airnya tersisa 300 cc. Setelah itu, air rebusan disaring dan diminum.

This morning

This morning snowy again.....
Pagi ini salju tipis turun lagi......
Kaya  ngga ada judul lain, padahal memang betul hehehhe

ini mobil suami dan satu lagi punya adik iparku ( Kathleen ) parkir gitu aja di depan rumah.

Please , please jangan bosan dulu bacanya ya my loyal readers.... janji deh ini bakal nulis sesuatu yang agak bermutu kok :) maklum sekarang lagi sedilkit galau meminjam istilah anak muda di twiteran gitu..



Pertama karena masih cemas mo pindah kemana, sementara suami juga belum ada tanda-tanda tentang pekerjaan di tempat barunya. Kedua akhir-akhir ini si tante Kathleen alias adik iparku ( meski tauaan dia daripada aku sih, gimana lagi wong adiknya suami ) uring2an ga jelas, bikin bete banget, marah, ngambek, banting pintu kalau cuma arguing sama suami sih udah ngga keitung lagi. Capee deh.... memang gue pikirin, ngga segitunya cuma karena kita tinggal serumah ya pastilah kena imbasnya juga.

Habis bikin kesal ntar dia minta maaf, trus berpelukan ( lama2 aku pikir cape juga yak basa-basinya orang amrik ).. Tapi kayaknya aku mesti maklumin person yg satu ini secara dia ipar, kedua dia peminum, alias drunken master :O ..... percaya ngga setahun tinggal bersama, aku 3X melihat, mendengar orang jatuh dari tangga..... gubrak , gedebug.... gedebug...... pastilah namanya juga jatuh ngga ada yang enak, apalagi jatuh dari lantai atas trus meluncur satu-satu di tanga gitu. Hiks... kasihan sebenernya, gimana lagi.... udah habitnya gitu tiap malam minum .. :(

Aku tau situasi ini ngga bagus untuk Yaya, sebagai teenager yang kamarnya cuma berhadapan dengan kamar si tante. Pernah tante Kathleen ini ambruk, gubrak di depan kamar Yaya, aku tau anakku udah berusaha biasa aja bersikap seolah-olah ngga kaget lagi. Mudah-mudahan Yaya mengerti dan bisa mengambil pelajaran semua ini. Aku percaya sungguh putri-putriku ini cukup pintar untuk memilih mana yang baik dan mana yang buruk. Karena tahu masa depan sungguh berharga, sehingga tidak akan mau jatuh, atau coba-coba sesuatu bersiko fatal di kemudian hari .

Oleh karena itu begitu mendengar mom alias ibu mertua punya rencana mo jual rumah ini, aku bahagia meski belum tau mo kemana .bahagia sekali. Berbalik 180' dengar iparku ini, malam hari setelah ibu mertua mengumumkan hal tsb pada meeting keluarga, iparku ini menangis tersedu-sedu di living room, bingung juga aku dengernya, secara aku bahagia, dia malah sedih setengah mati. Daripada bingung aku memutuskan masuk bathup aja, alias mandi besar , bodo ah dibilang jahat -_-

Lho aneh memang ga ada satupun anggota keluarga yg mau ketempatan dia, wong mom alias ibunya sendiri aja ngga mau.... buatku ini cukup aneh ( mereka 6 bersaudara termasuk suamiku ) .... tapi akhirnya aku ngerti daripada menambah konflik, nambah story kali ya....




Contohnya kemarin pada acara dinner ( ini jadwal rutin the Regans fam tiap Rabu malam) di rumah ibu mertua, siang harinya seharusnya Kathleen datang untuk membantu ibunya memasak. Tapi kata mom begitu datang, lalu ibu mertua mengabarkan kucing barunya mati ngga sengaja terlindas kursi listrik Don ( bapak mertua/tiri ) eehhh tau ngga reaksi Kathleen...... bukannya menghibur Mom yang lagi sedih berduka kucingnya mati, malah langsung ngelonyor pergi tanpa ba-bi-bu...... :O
Aneh khan apa maunya si adik ipar ini, bukannya saling mengibur karena lagi sedih malah pergi.



Ini foto 'buddy' RIP kucing ibu mertuaku yg tragis umurnya.

Begitulah saudara-saudara sedikit curhatku kali ini.

Lunch box ade vs school lunch menu of other countries

Setiap pagi aku masih ribet prepare 2 buah lunch box, satu untuk suami ( kalau ini ga terlalu ribet karena cuma sandwich isi peunut butter/ jam strawberry/ blueberry atau dilain hari berselang seling sandwich isi tuna fish favorite nya ), pisang dan cookies .

Nah satu lagi lunch box untuk Yaya inilah yang paling ribet, karena aku harus memasak terlebih dahulu malamnya, atau di pagi-pagi itu harus sudah selesai sebelum teng jam 6.00 pagi.
Ini tampilannya saudara-saudara, sebenernya simpel sih, isinya ( kali ini ) cuma nasi, dadar mie, fish stick, brocoli, carrot, pisang molen ( kecil ), muffin dan botol minumnya.


Ini nih salah satu menu lunch box Yaya anakku setiap harinya.

Oh ya kenapa aku beribet dengan urusan lunch Yaya ini. Alasannya karena dia masih belum terbiasa makan siang di sekolah dengan makanan di sini ( adaptasi dengan American food ) yang pasti karena tanpa nasi.... -_-

Jadi ngga ketang sekali sehari dia harus makan nasi. Bukan berarti di sekolahnya ngga menyediakan lunch for the student gitu. Bulan-bulan pertama eh maybe minggu2 pertama dia udah coba makan di kafetaria di sekolahnya seperti piza, burger ato spageti .....dst komplen terus ' ibu ngga enak makan kaya gituan.....' padahal dapat membeli cukup murah karena memakai kupon berdasar penghasilan ortu.
Kalau ibu-ibu di Indonesia ngga terlalu heboh dengan urusan lunch box khan, karena sekolah bubar jam 13.00 atau 13.30 siang. Anak-anak makan siang di rumah pastinya, meski di sekolah sudah jajan macam-macam.

Umumnya sekolah-sekolah di luar pada umumnya selesai pukul 15.00 jadi acara lunch di sekolahnya judulnya wajib. Sayang di sini ngga ada tukang jualan jajan seperti waktu Yaya di Jogja hehehehe...... kadang-kadang sambil jemput Yaya aku juga suka beli gado-gado, somay, baso dll di depan sekolahnya :))



Sekedar info tambahan aja berikut ini aku copas kan menu makan siang sekolah dari berbagai negara.
Kesimpulannya kalau menu dari negara-negara Asia pasti tidak ketinggalan dengan ikan dan yaaa itu tadi  nasi pastinya  hahahhahaha.... :D
Coba perhatikan foto-foto berikut menu dari Korea, Japan, China , India, France dan Amerika....

1. Korea

sup tahu, pisang, bakmie, brokoli, kimchi, nasi goreng ?

2. Jepang

Ikan Sardin, milk, orange, soup and nasi.

3. China

ikan,kimchi,brokoli,sup,bloemkol dan sure rice eeh.......nasi

4. India

Kari, saus and nasi  I mean rice....... of course .......... :D
malah jadi menu andalan nih ....

Nah berikut ini menu tanpa nasi maksudnya menu dari negara Eropa diwakili menu makan siang di sekolahnya negara France gitu. Dan yang terakhir menu dari benua America, karena ngga ada bau2 tacos, tortila dst sepertinya menu state yang di bagian utara nih contoh seperti daerah New England ( Notrhern ), ok. plis simak.....
5. Perancis

scallops, sebuah artichoke, jeruk, cheesecake, baguet


6. USA

BBQ sandwich, fries potato , bean , dan peach pai
