seperti tahun lepas, this year i did some cooking on raya pertama..baru masak 2 lauk dah macam nak patah pinggang..weak betol.. nasib baik mom helped me with the sambal goreng. i made rendang ayam and udang goreng rempah..then buat nasi minyak. Dah gitu aje. the day before dah buat agar2 fruit cocktail... so kira dah ok lah tu kan. kalau tak ok apa pulak kan :p actually i never bothered to cook before for raya.. no point kan since usually 1st day raya dulu, we'd go over to arwah MIL's place..makan puas2 pat sana..then off to my parents place..makan lagik pat sana...we'd have malay dishes at arwah MIL's place..then lauk pauk india pulak at my parent's place. But now, i know hubby will miss the dishes that arwahnyer usually cooks during 1st day raya such as her rendang, sayur lodeh, udang sambal.. so dari situ lah timbul semangat berkobar-kobar nak belajar camne nak masak lauk2 tu..terkial2 jugak first time blajar masak rendang tu tahun lepas..kejap2 tipon mommy tanya betol ke tak ni, apsal kaler lain macam etc..hehehe.. this yr at least dah ok sikit..cedebah!! meskipon my cooking is nothing compared to arwahnyer, sekurang2nyer its edible and made hubby happy.. so i'm happy also lor.. was also happy that one of my boss and his doter, kavitha and bf and one of my schoolmate manage to came over on 1st day raya..
oh ya.. hati ayahku sudah lembut berkaitan ngan sesuatu perkara that he was unhappy abt few mths back... so that really made this raya even more meaningful for both hubby and me :) Syukur kepada Allah swt kerana mendengar doa hambamu ini utk melembutkan hati ayahku..it was something that really moved me to tears when i think abt it...haizz..getting emotional again as usual...
raya tahun ni macam lebih meriah as compared to previous years...we made a pact to make sure we tried to visit seberapa banyak rumah sedara mara as we could this yr. since i didn't have sedara from my side, hubby's sedara is all we have so i thot we should maintain relationship with them and get to know them better.. alhamdulilah, they were really nice to us and seems happy bila kita datang mengunjung. Insya-Allah weekend nanti jalan raya lagi to a few more houses and also rumah kengkawan...
Hmm..so much abt raya stories..this few days i'm having pms i think!!! i'm feeling so grouchy lah.. and i kept worrying and thinking abt silly things again *sigh* sampai susah nak tido malam.. merepek rite? i know the things i worry abt is really silly sometimes but i just can't help it...and sometimes its also from the after-effects of some of the traumatising things i went thru sometime back... ish..
anyway enuff of my crap, makin cakap pasal ni, nanti makin stress pulak..hehe..dah lama tak citer pasal Chappee and Tweety eh? nak tahu perkembangan terbaru meka tak? they are now best of frens tau...chappee is quite fond of tweety now...actually now we've both ended up calling her sweety instead... maybe coz thats the original name given by my parents before we adopted her.. so now whenever sweety tido kan, chappee will jilat her bulu for her...awwww...so sweet rite? to think that when we first brought sweety home 5 mths back, chappee was like merajuk with us. hehe..
