It has been a cold day throughout we went to the supermart to get last minute stuff for our gathering and I've been busy cooking for about 4 hours as I have to make way for John to do his dessert kuih dadar.It was a busy day for John and Maria cleaning too 'macam nak raya pulak'.... hehehe
John invited his golf kakis (pakcik2 ni tak kira panas atau sejuk selalu di golf course depan rumah) and whose wives are Maria's friends too ''all retirees" (persara2 yg pandai mengisi masa - mcm2 activities mereka buat-malu saya) they play golf ,tennis,yoga,dancing classes,walking and doing own gardening.Such a happy life as I can see it all with big houses with none of the children living with them..... kenapa kita tak bolih buat mcm tu ye? berat tulang agak nya nak jln 1 batu pun tak larat (ni cakap diri sendiri ye).
The table settings .... split into 2 dining rooms .... and I learnt that husbands and wives are separated Maria and I are in the main dining room whilst John in the breakfst room... Maria kata so they don't cling to each other and have time talking to different people.The plates are set with their names written on each so its like musical chairs .... hahaha .... when it comes for food go look for your plate.
The appetiser ikan bilis goreng kacang using the mexican cili kering and my only disappointment the ikan bilis tak garing lemau je maybe the cold weather kot.
What did chef queen elle cook?????.................. here they are...........
Beef curry cooked on saturday evening so that it taste better the next day ( hehe actually also wanted Kristina and Robert to try).
Lamb satay goreng....
Cili prawns
and finally fried bee hoon.
The dessert tart nenas,cempedak and kuih dadar done by John.
