Scones

-
I have a very bad experience with making pastries which uses a rub-in method. Failures after failures of having to make a decent pastry out of this method had sort of freaked me out. However, with some courage I made up my mind and decided to give it a try yesterday. I decided to make scones, I have never tasted the actual scones and after looking and surfing over countless numbers of blogs and websites, at last I tried this simple scones which I found from Taste.com


So here's my first ever scones and it was clearly everyone's favourite as the whole tray disappeared within minutes. And I had to make the scones again after that.  The recipe produced about 17 pieces but the first batch was only 12 as I was being very careful with the dough and followed the recipe religiously. And the recipe didn't fail, it turns out better after that, well....practice makes perfect kan...so Mum has requested that I make this again next weekend and she suggested that I add cheese, wah...(does that sound like an approval there?..hmmmm.....***grinning***)

Psst...will upload more pictures of the scones later..am so excited with this little success of mine...yeyeyeyeyeyye...

Bahasa Melano Balingian

-
My trip to Miri not only gave me the opportunity to reunite with old friends that I missed dearly but I also took the golden opportunity to learn more about my dad's language. My dad is a Melanau from Kpg Suyong, Balingian. Their melanau dialect differs from the rest of the Melanau dialects from Mukah, Oya, Rejang, Dalat, Matu, Igan & Bintulu. Sad to say that this particular dialect is slowly disappearing. Even my aunt Regina or fondly known as Usu Ina who is married to a melanau from Bintulu is at loss with her own Balingian dialect at times. So far, I've noticed that only my dad, my first cousins Lai & Kak Senah are still speaking this beautiful dialect fluently. Usu Ina converse mostly in the Mukah dialect and I observed that she would refer to Lai if she was not sure of the language itself. My dad and his siblings back in Balingian still converse in their own dialect but once they are out of their kampung, they would converse in the Mukah dialect again. Mmmmmmmmmmm....
