Salam Eid from us..

Our first complete family picture together. Alhamdulillah. Have a blessed Eid dear friends...

Salam akhir Ramadhan

Sekejap je Ramadhan bakal melabuhkan tirai pd tahun ini. Anak2 dah x sabar nk raya esok...kids being kids, bila citer pasal raya pasti excited.

Raya kami kali ni agak sederhana. buat pertama kali kami beraya di rumah je..x blk kampung kedah..x blk ampang. Rasanya irfan belum sesuai utk kuar berjln. Sedih mmg sedih..especially bila terkenangkan Firas citer....semua kwn2 kt Kafa blk kg, kenapa kita x blk kg? Sori anak2 mama, insya Allah tahun depan kita blk yer!

Persiapan raya? ala kadar..tiada yg istimewa pun. Biskut raya langsung x beli...mak ude dan nek umi ada kasi sebalang dua...jadikla. Ada sahabat yg baik hati kasi kerepek2...kami cuma beli popia serunding je dr ustazah idlan. Dan minggu lepas mama buat cornflakes coklat dgn bebudak tu...saja nk amik hati mereka..sbb dah beberapa kali derang tanya bila kita nk buat biskut raya mama? :p

Pagi tadi sempat buat brownies masa irfan tidur. Esok pg goreng mihun je kot..juadah2 raya yg lain mak dan SIL akan bwk nnt. Ikutkan hati mcm2 benda mama tingin nk masak. Tapi masa x mengizinkan. Harap2 pg esok irfan tido lama sket..bole la mama bersilat kt dapur sekejap :)

Selamat Hari Raya buat kengkawan semua. Moga selamat pulang ke kg halaman..dan selamat pulang ke kota semula. Maaf zahir batin dari kami sekeluarga.

8.8.2014 - Firas turns 6!

Syukur Alhamdulillah, our small family gathering cum Firas’s birthday celebration turned out well and proceeded as planned. Being a mak yong who is still in the early stage, I had to take an off day on Friday to do the prep i.e. do the shopping, siang ayam daging, masak nasi impit and agar-agar, etc. Me and hubby also had a quick outing to Jusco for my birthday’s lunch treat and scouting for Firas’s birthday gift. I’ve also intended to bake a marble cheese brownie the same day, but the plan did not materialize anyway. Too tired already plus we also had open house jiran that night which the mommies (especially!) mkn2 and borak like nobody business from 9.20pm until almost 12 midnight! huhhh

Saturday came, I hit the kitchen as early as 4.30am. Sambung siang daging (semlm tak sempat kiki), stopped for Subuh prayer and started the cooking process. Line ups of the day – nasi beriyani, ayam masak merah, kari daging, acar timun, nasi impit, lontong, sambal ikan bilis, serunding daging, rendang daging (import mak punyer hehe), agar2 gula Melaka, kek lapis Sarawak (bos kasik), watermelon and air oren. I don’t have a big rice cooker, hence need to cook the nasi twice.

Penat? yes definitely. I had to take panadol that night, mmg sakit kepala yg amat. Happy? of course!!! Seronok dapat jamu orang2 tersayang dengan hasil air tangan sendiri yg tak seberapa. Most importantly, the chance to strengthen the loves n bonding that already exists amongst us, that’s priceless. Our kids especially the birthday boy pun mmg sgt2 hepi dapat celebrate besday dgn cousin2 mereka…Alhamdulillah.

Do we want to have another round of makan2 next year? Insya Allah. tapi catering la kotss hihi…tak larat la nak masak utk ramai orang. Kudrat dah kureng…baru masak sikit dah sakit pinggang yg amats.

Salam Aidilfitri 2014

Antara gambar yg sempat di capture di pagi Raya di Ampang. After lunch, kami bergerak pulang ke Kulim, Kedah dan sambung beraya selama hampir seminggu! Selama 5 hari di sana, mmg everyday kuar beraya dari pagi hingga ke lewat petang. Flat yg amat toksah ckp, migrain pon menjadi teman setia sepanjang raya :(
Apa-apa pun syukur anak2 semua sihat dan happy dpt beraya ke rumah sanak saudara, dapat main bunga api 3x, dapat main air dan berendam dlm pool @ Bukit Merah pada raya ke-3, dan memacam lagiklah aktiviti depa sepanjang kat kampung...uishh mmg marvellous raya kali ni :)

Semua gambar dekat Ampang je...kat Kulim langsung x snap picture sebab bz jalan raya :p

Salam.Eid.from.Yatipruzz n family

We had a blast Raya alhamdulillah. Spent our 1st raya in Ampang, with delicious raya menu spread hasil air tgn mak lah sape lagik hehe...beriyani, ayam msk merah, nasi himpit wth rendang tok, kuah kacang n lontong. ohh did i mention i lose 2.5kg during Ramadhan n gained back 1.5kg within just a week? haha

On the 2nd day we headed up north to hub's hometown in Kulim and spent almost every day outside the house. We covered Alor setar, Sg Petani, Sunway Carnival, the war museum, jusco queensbay mall..n of coz jln raya to the relatives houses. Syukur we managed to catch up with almost all the pakcik n makcik sedara hubby, the cousins, n yess i catched something precious from Primavera at jusco queensbay haha sempat lagii tuuuh.

Tomoro is Monday...going to be my 2nd day back to the office. hoping the perasan lemau will go away very soon as i hv quite a no of outstanding tasks to finish off....tolonglah rajin wahai diri!!!

baking for Eid

it's good to be back after a month of hibernating! harum semerbak bau nya...moga kuat nafsu nak menahan diri sampai ke pagi raya ahaksss

i'm on EL today. initially i thought of taking my raya leave starting tomorrow. but hey it's not cool being in the office while ur body mind n soul were left at home. kalau antar email pon asyik dpt out of office reply from the recipient...ohhh sgt mentensikan diri jika anda masih bekerja dont u think so? :)

i've got lot of things to settle today. done baking 2 cakes, packing some clothes, basuh baju raya n few matching shawls (omg its sooo cloudy today tlg lah kering plisss), hubby washed our sofa cover, langsir malas basuh halal jelah....n the list goes on. now tgh men strectch kan otot2 badan before i resume with cake decorating job...the part that i like most..which happen to be the most tiring task hoho

ohhh mendungnya cuaca di luar..must keep on praying! kang anak sumer glam di pg raya..mama kena pakai baju ofis jer huwarghhhh

jalan2 raya di hujung syawal

Sabtu kami hanya rehat di rumah. Ammar masih demam on off plus batuk n sesema. Ahad tu..syukur ammar x demam dah. So tgh hari kami pegi open house tadika addin. 1st yg kids nampak is ice cream..ishh ammar yg batuk tu pon pulun sama! Tak mampu nk larang sbb si abg2 pun sibuk mkn jugak kan.

Then gerak ke ampang rumah nek umi..lepak sampai Asar. Then pegi jln umah abg kt ampang jaya. Tiramisu my sil sgt mengancam. Guna bahulu bukan ladies fingers ok...sedappp!

Lepas maghrib kami pulang ke TS...sempat pegi rumah k.yati jiran depan. Ammar siap tertido atas sofa empuk tuan rumah :p k.yati wat nasi kerabu..pai tee..soto..sumer mantop.

Dan mlm ni..open house jiran yg terakhir di rumah misah. Penutup jln2 raya di rumah jiran bg tahun ini hihi.

So sekian cerita raya buat thn ini. Semlm timbang berat kt rumah umi...siap naik turun 2x sbb tak percaya bley gitu? Haha
