Jellanies berhari raya

Its 1 week of raya and I dah put a full stop ..... cukup lah makan belum berhenti apa yg turun bulan ramadhan dah naik balik seminggu syawal berat punya case.
Baju2 di pakai dah kena hantar untuk dry cleaning lepas tu tergantung dlm almari entah bila lah nak di gunakan lagi jgn tunggu lagi 5 tahun dah .... haha

Sudah seminggu dapur tak berasap asal siang mkn di sekolah bila malam ke rumah adik2 kalau tak makan leftovers yg ada dlm fridge.Hari ni baru lah masak chicken vindaloo ... so yummylicious....tapi rempah nya airflown dari Perth - my niece tolong belikan.

I compile semua gambar2 yg saya ambil masa raya pertama hingga lah semalam di rumah Ram and Aini ..

Kalau free tengok lah movie yg saya buat tu dan bagi komen juga .... hehe

Pada cikmilah and ummi365 I pun tak tau I buat n3 kosong agak ter ......

Saya raya pertama mmg tak berjalan sebab jadi tuan rumah semenjak mak takde 20 tahun saya lah penganti dia masak,menyambut tetamu semua.... penat tau?

Macam biasa raya tahun di sambut sederhana semenjak arwah bapak meninggalkan kami tahun lepas.Persedian pun sederhana sahja kalau nak ikutkan mmg saya takde mood lansung tapi kesian pulak nanti tetamu dtg nak juga siapkan kuih muih kan?Saya cuma beli tarts dan muruku sahja yg lain2 tu di bagi olih adik2 dan ipar2 yg masih ingat.

Raya kedua saya lepak habis - kepenatan katakan .... mlm tu baru berjalan dgn my sister Aini ke rumah adik lelaki dan nenek sedara.

Raya ketiga kerumah my brother lagi satu dan semalam kerumah adik lagi satu Lina....agak mlm ni rehat :) pasal esok nak ke rumah Ram ada open house.

Gambar di rumah my brother raya ketiga .... bersama my siters and nieces .... baju raya mmg tak beli tahun ni tu yg saya pakai baju dah 5 tahun tergantung di almari selepas hantar dry cleaning nasib baik masih bolih muat .... hahaha.... teringat saya baju tu linen saya beli di KL dan masa tu lah tsunami berlaku.....

Ni juadah semalam di rumah my sister Lina .... ada mee rebus dan satay goreng dan juga fried chicken wings.

Sekian lapuran raya saya di sini.

1st day raya @ BB

I had a nice 1st day of raya with siblings and dear friends visit .... I had been busy cooking all morning and unlike before when arwah bapak was around they start to stroll in only late starting with Aini and family at almost 1pm then followed by Ram and the rest.My last visitor is my youngest bro and family at 9.45pm .... my shop almost close lor.

Here are some pictures for your viewing ....

How was your 1st day of raya?

The madness begins

I managed to get a day leave today as you all know my leave can be taken only during school break but my boss was kind enough to grant today's leave as I need to do marketing etc and being the eldest in the family is no joke - everyone will be visiting me inplace of our parents who had left us and if given a chance I want to be the youngest ... oh oh if any of you siblings reading this entry I am just kidding ok...actually I meant it hahaha


To market to market to buy stuff for cooking for raya but makoi it was crowded and I had to push my way to get things and if you think I am big there are others bigger than me ..... prices of course increase by $2/- for meat and chicken - pandai these sellers kan? I decide not to get chicken today maybe I will buy from the supermart tomorow or back to the market again.I bought all the spices and some veges,prawns,beef and the tofu and tempeh for the sambal goreng.


I was at the vege stall when I saw .......

this jambu .... my mouth start to water thinking of doing rojak :)been looking for it for sometimes....so for tonite it will be fruits rojak and I forgot to get pineapple but can do without it.

I bought this spicy muruku .... syiok ah?wish I can eat them now whilst typing this entry ..... hep!don't think of food can or not?

also bought pineapple tarts from my regular makcik .... she reduces her price for me by a dollar ... sayang makcik:) the last few years I've stopped baking as I don't have the time anymore why bake when you can buy just as nice as mak's but one of my sisters is doing them but so far she is yet to give me a bottle so might as well just buy and be happy:)

Youngest sister Aini left msg at FaceBook that she bought the cake lapis for me from JB and also prawns roll .... thank you Aini for being so thoughtful.

Whatever you call the above cookies was made by my sis in law Saba and she gave me a bottle of that ... and I had one last night it was yummy and looks like I may have another tonite ...... hehehe .....

Dear cikmilah actually posted to me some kuih raya all the way from Penang but unlikely I will get them before raya as she only send them out on Tuesday but nevertheless she has been so kind knowing I don't bake any and she is sending them all the way ..... thank you so much Milah you are so kind and from what she told me its about 5 different types of kuih raya ... I am so lucky.

The stall that sell grated coconut was impossible for me to buy by looking at the queque so I went into the supermart and bought kara grated coconut but unfortunately only 2 packs left and this afternoon for an hour I had to stand infront of the stove to fry them to make serunding to go with lontong.



the serunding compared to last year is half the protion I did .... not that I don't want to do more blame the supermart they ran out of it.

Today has been rain - sun and rain again .... hopefully tomorrow it will stay sunny as I have errands to do ..... aiyo why lah everytime comes raya I have to do lots of running around? Maybe next year I go on holiday and no worries about all this.... but then will raya fall during school break?

Watch this space my rojak buah coming ................

Once again Selamat hari raya & maaf zahir batin.

Sayang mama ...

Garpy is now my sayang mama .... here he is posing on his master's bed which is also his bed:) kah kah kah

I was never a fan of cats or any other furry animals - don't hate but just that eeks feeling and I wouldn't even want to touch them until I met sayang mama....

oh my look at that flabby tummy ... hmm but sexy rite?

One night after having dinner with the guys and playing with garpy upon reaching home my mind was thinking of him and I know how close he is with C or vice versa ... can I break their love by adopting him?.... sitting alone in my room I decide to jot this down .... straight from my heart .....

To sayang mama

Never in a million years
I dream of you
but
Sayang mama has changed me
If touching you was yucks before
that was yesterday
As today a new horizon develope
Seeing you for first time
Makes me want to touch you
Why??? I have no answer
My hope is …..
we'll get along fine...
I know you belong to him
I'm not yours...
but my love for you will not change
you're all mine in my heart .. darling Garpy.

No matter I hope one day I will find another like him that has the same fatal attraction . 'love at first sight'... should sayang mama be mine one day can C accept the separation?
So for now I will love him from afar and if he is mine he will be mine.


Nothing much to write today and just as a reminder raya is 3 days away and I am still not prepared .... aiyo why huh?

Selamat hari raya & maaf zahir batin.

Selamat hari raya

Ku hulurkan 10 jari untuk meminta kemaafan dan keampunan jika ada tersalah bahasa bila di alam maya .... usik mengusik mmg jadi kebiasaan tampa di sedari jika ada yg mencuit hati harap di maafkan.
