When I started this business few years ago I have a strong desire to make my customers go absolutely bananas hence I started mixing strategies and a whole lot of passion in it.
I take pride in my work as I have managed to create a raving fan base of my pineapple roll tarts that melts-in-your mouth.
This success was probably due to my marketing strategy to targeted customers only. I do not target to serve everybody but only to somebody who crave fresh baked homemade pineapple tart like busy moms and executives who crave for this snack.
I have determine which cluster of people will benefit from my niche product and prayed this year’s coming festive season will be another BOOM sales.!!!!
Delicious Pineapple Tarts That Melt In The Mouth
Positive Parenting results in Positive Children
Hi,
As posted in my previous entry on this issue, I would like to move on to this topic on a television slot I recently watched about Children’s motivation. as illustrated by a professional Motivator.
The TV slot is about a girl who is not getting any support from her father as he is too busy with his job. He underestimated her daughter’s potential in education and all her activities. However she is fortunate her mother is supportive and give her inspirations in all her activities. She ended up being excellent in her education results and successful in her club activities and gained recognition. Her father later realized his mistake and changed to be more positive because of his daughter being one of those positive children.
The above story may have been a story tale TV series but lets flash back in our everyday live. Are we being supportive to our children and not hard on them. Too supportive is also not good as we have to let them fare for themselves. So those misbehaving children, run-away-from home are probably the lack of positive parenting attitude among adults to bring up positive children
Positive Parenting
Are your children having healthy Nutrition for them to become positive children or Global Kid?
Are you aware where your children are?
Are your children misbehaving for the lack of love and attention from their parent?
Children is not without curiosity to try to do something that they sometimes do not realize is inviting disaster. They are human beings too hence do not expect them to remain quiet, sitting down and giving them spankings when they misbehave.We as parents may have specific rules and regulations for the safety and well-being of our children, we want the best for their future. We should try not to impose strong discipline at their age.
The first six years of a growing child is very crucial for the brain development. Let them play because these activities will build their minds. In fact, parents ought to play games with them as an opportunity to connect with your child and teach them lessons to be receptive and alert them of any mishaps due to their actions.
Some working parents work hard on their children and impose punitive measures when the rules they set for their children are not met . They have overlooked the love and affection that is due on their return from work as they may be stressed or too busy with the house errand.
More on these topic and a recipe for our children in my next entry…….. happy reading
Home Gardening Project – Go Go Green
I’m a home owner with very limited green space for me to grow flowers and food for the kitchen. However I have managed to really harvest the food of my labour even though on a very small consumption. I have planted some tomatoes, chillies, african eggplant and now growing passionfruit.
I grow my chillies in a big black polibag to ensure the plant grow healthily with lost of compost and organic fertilizer.
This african eggplant is a rare species in Malaysia and I obtained the seedling by chance from a relative. The texture of this food is thick and smootie. Nice to eat when added in fish curry.
This passionfruit is grown from the seed of the fruits I had eaten, My husband made a supporting trellies against the wire fence since this is a creeper plant.
Remember the honey pineapple I was talking about some time last year. I hope it will bear fruit even when planted in a big pot.
Who Am I Not To Be
Welcome 2012. I have not posted any entries this year as I was busy with my family errands. My son entered a foundation course in Universiti Teknologi Petronas (Malaysia) in the middle of January just lately.
I am in the process of intergrating (hope I apply this word correctly!) my hobbies of bakery and gardening aspects into a webpage. I have created a page in my Facebook recently under the name of Norri Bake and NRK Garden . Feel free to visit these 2 pages not forgetting to “like” them and I’ll be writing further about my online cookies….
Both my husband and I are slowly converting our outdoor backyard into a presentably nice and not too overcrowded landscape. We’ve started transferring some potted plants especially the bougainvilleas alongside the wire fence.
Flood In Thailand
The disastrous flood in Thailand seems to be never ending. I prayed and hope this calamity will not happen in Malaysia. And I also prayed that the flood will subside gradually in Bangkok. The economic impact not only affected their local citizen but also indirectly trade and commerce in Malaysia as quite a number of consumer items are imported from Thailand. Schools and offices are closed, hence education is badly affected.
Other that the daily consumption items like rice Malaysia also depended alot of its vegetable and fruits like pineapple and citrus fruits from Thailand.
Tasty Treats of Homemade Tart Cookies For Eidul Fitri Celebration
Hi, its been very long time since I last post any entries. That’s the duration of the busiest time of the year for me according to the Islamic calendar month of Rejab, Syaaban and Ramadhan. These 3 months I am heavily devoted to my baking of homemade cookies and creating tasty treats of my product name “NorriBake Cookies” for the Eidul Fitri Celebration. We take pride to ensure that our product gives you the “melt-in-your-mouth” satisfaction.
How I wished then there were more than 24/7….. to meet customers orders. With only limited hours of sleep and rest my husband (thanks to my husband who just-retired-from employment) and I managed to accomodate all the work done from purchasing food supplies, production , packaging and labelling up to delivery to customers. We are lucky most of the orders are from our resellers/agents, hence we don’t indulge much into marketing of our niche product. Our most popular products are the Pineapple and Assorted Tarts as shown in the picture below
We have been blessed that most of the orders this year are from our loyal customers so we get quite a number of repeat orders. So much so we hardly have enough time to do house-keeping . Thank You all for the support. A new product range from my Tart Cookies is the Assorted Tarts as shown in the picture below:
We do not hault our baking activities just because Hari Raya Eidul Fitri is over. We will still continue with our home bakery throughout the year to accommodate for other functions like engagements and weddings. Feel free to contact us and discuss about your order requirements.

Happy Mother’s Day
To all mother’s in the whole wide world Happy Mother’s Day!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday 08/05/2011, I am blessed to be able to celebrate Mother’s Day with my other siblings at my Mother’s house. This is the first time in many years all of my mom’s daughters and a son are here together.
We recited the holy Quran verse of the ” Yaasin” and followed by our lunch potluck party. Thereafter it was followed by Birthday parties for all babies in the family born in March, April and May, a family tradition we practised for a reason to get together periodically.
We exchanged Birthday gifts. As the grand finale we presented a Big present to mother ie a Wheelchair. She suffers pain in both leg and have difficulty in walking properly and standing on both feet. HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY MAK WE ALL LOVE YOU!!!
Eat Wisely and Stay Healthy
Eat good and healthy food everyday. Keep away from dusty areas and think positive. That’s the most important reminder I should religiously follow without fail. This is because a nice and delicious meal may not necessarily be a good and healthy food. I am saying this because of my personal experience . Prior to this I used to eat what I like to eat and take lightly about health factors. However since early this year I have been experiencing 3 occurrences of asthmatic cases and dizziness due to low blood pressure. I surf the net to find out about low blood pressure and will find out about asthmatic problems in my future entries.
What is considered to be low blood pressure?
Blood pressure is basically a measurement of the pressure exerted by blood flow on the walls of the arteries, as it is pumped through the body to the various organs. While high blood pressure or hypertension is quite well defined, low blood pressure is usually relative and not an absolute. While the normal measurement of blood pressure is 120/80 mm hg this level could vary quite widely among different individuals, and low blood pressure simply refers to the abnormality, where the blood pressure of the person is much lower than the normal. Low blood pressure symptoms include fatigue, headaches, dizziness or light headedness, because of oxygen deprivation. This is because the reduced blood flow causes a poor supply of oxygen to the brain and other vital organs of the body.
It is important to keep in mind that since low blood pressure is relative to your normal blood pressure levels, what is defined as low blood pressure is likely to vary among individuals. Thus a low blood pressure reading for one person would be normal for another. It is therefore important to go for regular medical checkups to monitor blood pressure so that a drop in blood pressure can be swiftly identified. The normal range of blood pressure could vary from 90/60 mm Hg to 130/80 mm Hg. A drop of as little as 20 could be problematic for some people and if your normal blood pressure is in the higher range, a drop of 20 would still be seen as normal, which is why periodic testing is necessary. This is also important because low blood pressure symptoms may not always be evident
Low Blood Pressure Problems and Complications
The main dangers of low blood pressure stem from an inability of the heart to pump adequate blood to the various organs of the body. As a result the organs cannot function properly and there could be temporary or even permanent damage to the organs. Low blood pressure problems will generally manifest some symptoms.
Angina or Heart Attack:
An impaired blood flow to the coronary arteries, which are responsible for supplying blood to the heart muscles could cause a person to develop chest pain, symptomatic of angina, or the person could even experience a heart attack.
Kidney Damage or Failure: Reduced blood flow to the kidneys can impair their ability to eliminate wastes from the body, consequentially increasing the levels of these wastes and toxins in the blood. This can therefore create still more complications affecting various other organs of the body.
Organ Failure:
This is the main danger of low blood pressure. Very low blood pressure levels or persistently low blood pressure levels could lead to rapid deterioration and failure of the vital organs like the heart, brain, lungs, livers and kidneys, leading to death.
