belly painting

one of my besties, Kirana -- a make-up artist, asked me to draw on her bump for her personal maternity photo-shoot. i wasn't really sure what to draw or paint. though i'm a graphic designer, i'm not really good in drawing nor painting, lol.


she told me i could paint anything i like/want, but i know that deep down inside she wanted me to paint a neat tribal (oh well -__-") well, actually i did, but i wasn't really happy with the result, so i won't show it off here :P but, i was quite happy with the other one, this simple painting :)







anyway, Kirana gave birth to her second child on April 3, 2011, 6 days after the photo-session. it was a baby girl, named Refana Ayesa. Picture taken from Farry's (the dad) facebook :)

is that reaally youuu?

featured on Genie, a local tabloid, last week's edition 1-7 April 2011. thank you for Rahmi (writer) & Rahmat (photographer) who came along the way to my place in Bandung :)

sunday at home

breakfast: pancakes, hot choco and hot tea. i remember this recipe, so i asked sami to make half of the pancake batter into crepes batter :P easy to do, just add (for example) one tablespoon of milk for one tablespoon of batter :) 

and this is how my ham and egg square crepes turned out to be.. 

geez looked awfully embarasing, no? compared to kate's here. lol. will try to make this again someday :)) picture taken from here.

lunch: fresh home-made pasta with garlic buttered prawn by sami :)

tea time: lemon crepes, recipe from MSL Indonesia January 2011.
