Nasi Goreng

Nasi goreng is famous Indonesian food. Easy to cook and delicious. There is no standard recipe to cook nasi goreng. The most important step is to fried nasi, then you can put any ingredients and taste that you like. This is a version of my favorite nasi goreng:

Ingredients:

2 cup nasi

2 tablespoon cooking oil or vegetable oil

1 tablespoon sweet soy sauce

1 tablespoon soy sauce

a little salt

Half cup sliced carrots

1 stalk scallion

2 garlic, minced

Heat the pan, pour cooking oil or vegetable oil, add garlic, scallion, and carrots, mix until half done. Pour sweet soy sauce, soy sauce, and salt. Mix well. Then add nasi, mix well. Turn off the stove, and put nasi goreng to serving plate. 

You can eat nasi goreng with sunny side up egg, sliced cucumber, or fried chicken. It is super delicious!

Here is a song about nasi goreng... enjoy!

Blogging Is For Sharing And Caring

When I first knew about blogging, I thought I should write a full story of my life. Then I thought I should write all of my thoughts. After a years, I know that my orientation about blogging was changed!

Blogging is about keeping my working portfolio. I become a blogger since 2009, and now when I read my old posts, they make an "aha" moment. From the old posts I know when I mastering certain knowledge and how I learned.

Blogging is about keeping family memories. My baby photos, wedding photos, and some old photos of my parent, my house, my pets with stories that explained, that I put on my blog several years ago, kept my eyes wet when I read them! I kind of a woman that easily cry when something from my memories recalled. And that feeling is beautiful, I like to memorizing my past, that's why I like to become a blogger.

10 Things You Should Know If Homeschool In Indonesia

I’ve been eleven years homeschooling, and I never live in other country. So here are my experience, I want to share with other homeschool fellow, to let you know about how we, Indonesian homeschool family, live in our days of learning.

My son in his scouting activity

1. Your neighbour and family will continue asking about your child socialization

Even if you already told them, they won’t believe in you, until your child have his good friends playing at your house.

2. You should have your own library, most of all libraries will ask about your child’s school student ID when apply membership.

And as a homeschool child, they do not have school ID, and therefore can’t apply for library membership.

Levemir VS Lantus, The Effects On My Diabetic

Yesterday i was so disappointed with the fact that my effort and pain at the whole month was useless. It is about my blood glucose that is getting higher than last month. Before March, my doctor prescribed Lantus Solostar as my diabetic treatment. I injected every night, 12 units. And my test showed result about 160-190 mg/dL, that was good, I used to be 400 mg/dL before insulin treatment.

On March, I got Levemir as replacement of Lantus, my doctor said that Lantus is out of stock. OK, I thought they are just the same. If certain brand medicine is out of stock, doctor will prescribe the replacement that have the same effect. So I injected my Levemir the whole March. And guess what I got on April test? My blood sugar was 322 mg/dL! I was very shocked!

Camping In Rainy Day

Look at those cloudy sky!

It was our third camping with our homeschool community, Klub Sinau. And it was rainy day! Most of campers tend to ignore rain, but not us. Camping in rainy day is so challenging, we learn how to survive from the rain in the tent with dry clothes, sleeping bag, and food! Can we? Yes we can!
