Farewell Tiramisu

11

Some people come into our lives and quickly go.  Some stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same.  ~Flavia Weedn

Itu adalah quotes yang ada di edible image Tiramisu Cake untuk perpisahan temen kantor, SH dan JN. They are pursuing their dream and another opportunity”… Good luck ladies..!

Setelah Farewell Dinner, sampai rumah jam 8 malam, bermain sebentar dengan Alel & Awza sambil menunggu mereka tidur, namun sampai jam 10 malam ternyata masih heboh bermain. Then I went to the Plan B, serahkan anak2 ke Embak dan langsung menyingsingkan baju, angkat  mixer  dan berjibaku dengan oven di dapur hehe… Base cake nya aku pakai Pondan Tiramisu, supaya cepat.

Sambil digangguin anak-anak, cake nyaris hangus, untung bisa cepat diselamatkan… Lanjut dengan Alel yang ngambek ingin makan kuenya, belum juga diberikan ijin, satu layer sudah dicomot duluan. Ku hanya bisa: “Yaaachhh Kak…!” Jadilah Tiramisunya dengan base cake hanya 2 layer + 1 layer cream di tengah, coklat pagernya pun terpaksa dipasang dengan posisi “tidur”! Ya sudahlah… untungnya bukan pesanan orang… Meski cake nya belum layak tampil di blog, I always try to be proud with my homemade cakes and its process, no matter how you will be shocked by their appearances...! Tapi komen teman-teman kantor, termasuk JN dan SH, “enaakkkkk….!” Alhamdulillah… Kalaupun tidak enak, terima kasih sudah berpura-pura di depan-ku kawan hahah….!!

Melow time is started…

Ladies…. 8 tahun berlalu tanpa terasa…  Dari aku gadis hingga berbuntut dua… Tertawa…ledekan yang kadang diselingi dengan sentilan juga gesekan-gesekan kecil yang tidak dapat dihindari, tapi justru itulah yang bisa mendewasakan seseorang di dunia kerja.

Dunia kerja, ibarat salah satu universitas tanpa ijazah formal, namun luar biasa pengayaan diri disana. Banyak hal yang tidak bisa dipelajari secara teoritikal ala perkuliahan, namum perlu pemahaman dan pendalaman secara praktikal. Dimana teori di perkuliahan yang bisa mengajarkan bagaimana menghargai orang, approaching people, wise communicating, team working, professionalism, including confronting and arguing elegantly even sometime with arrogantly…? We get those only at workplace, right?

Dear JN,

Congratulation for the new chapter of your life… Finally you found the missing piece…! Alel ingin sekali ke Cina lho melihat panda… mudah-mudahan kita bisa ketemu... someday… somewhere… Amin!

I love being married.  It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.  ~Rita Rudner

Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who can't sleep with the window shut, and a woman who can't sleep with the window open.  ~George Bernard Shaw

Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other.  Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.  ~Katherine Hepburn

Spouse:  someone who'll stand by you through all the trouble you wouldn't have had if you'd stayed single.  ~Author Unknown

The difficulty with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality, but must live with a character.  ~Peter Devries

Before marriage, a man declares that he would lay down his life to serve you; after marriage, he won't even lay down his newspaper to talk to you.  ~Helen Rowland

Why do married men gain weight while bachelors don't?  Bachelors go to the refrigerator, see nothing they want, then go to bed.  Married guys go to the bed, see nothing they want, then go to the refrigerator.  ~Author Unknown

Divorce:  The past tense of marriage. ~Unknown.

Trust me… if you could handle all people at our office, surely it will work with your hubby… *big grin!

Dear SH,

Congratulation for the new challenging opportunity, at different atmosphere and of course with optimistic spirit!

Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end.  Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.  ~Gilda Radner

Saying goodbye doesn't mean anything. It's the time we spent together that matters, not how we left it.
- Trey Parker

Happy trails to you, until we meet again.
Some trails are happy ones,
Others are blue.
It's the way you ride the trail that counts,
Here's a happy one for you.
~Dale Evans

Ladies…

In the hope to meet… Shortly again, and make our absence sweet. ~Ben Jonson
