new 'toys'?

this whole week, i've been buying a few new 'toys' for my kitchen.

5 Pyrex bakewares: 2 deep flan bakeware (26cm) (from Parkson, SUbang Parade), 2 867ml oval bakeware bowl and 1 1.1L rectangular bakeware bowl (the last 3 items from Giant, they were at a special price!).

last but not least, my latest pride & joy, Zebra brand Vitalux Plus 28cm pot. great for stews and the likes! orang Kelantan suka periuk kuali dari brand Zebra, Buaya ... apa lagi ek? great for cooking.

now ... if i can only find the manual for 'my oven'. it's an in-built oven. my mom used to use it when she lived in this apartment but when she moved ... the manual sort of disappeared :o(

i've been looking high & low for it and i think it was thrown out by the maids during the move.

my (hand-me-down) Baby Belling is all rusty and i dare not bake anything in it. again ... it was my mom's and when she moved, saya yg dapat. i think the oven has been with us for about 20 years or shy of it.

latest emergency is my washing machine. yes, it came with the house. age is close to 5 years. i couldn't wash anything the whole of last week because it won't drain the water out.

yes, i've checked the tubes, the release valve (whateveryoucallit) ... drained out all the water and when i switch it on again ... it's not draining water again.

should i get a new toy? should i, should we ... abang? hehehe *wink, wink*

hmm ... can we afford it? we spent alot today. raya fever maybe? a new 2-seater sofa for our house (which will only arrive after raya which is ok because we'll be away during raya) and a queen-size bed for our studio apartment. we plan to rent it out once we get the CF. it's one of our best and long term investment, insyaAllah.



tapikan abang .... i think we do need a new washing machine ... puhleeeez .........
