SYUKUR.

Salam, hope everybody had a good weekend.

I have replied to some queries at the previous at the comments column, too busy lately-  have to revert in replying to comments macam dulu2:)
I have different jobscopes under the new department now, meeting new people,attending alot of meetings and conferences. I have to do many presentation, building rapport with relevant authorities etc but i like it. It has been so long sitting,drafting contract, dealing with problems etc - i kinda feel refresh with the new change. The new team is great too, i can  get along well:)Alhamdulillah.

We had a busy weekend- First of all SYUKUR tak terhingga kepada Allah Swt we are given precious time with our beloved mother/Uwan- Uwan turned 90 on 16/6/2013! HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMAK/UWAN- nothing on this world can repay for what you have done for us- you are the starting point,you are the pillar, you are the reason for us to be here on this world.

16/6 was also a Father's Day- people said we love our father everyday- that is so true but it is also nice to give them present and celebration on this special day - it will not make our love less to him and will not make the rest of the year less special- what is important is in your heart;);)

We had a small gathering with anak2 Uwan yang available on Sunday night at my house- it was simple and sweet:)

 

To make it a little meriah and the girls can tumpang happy- i gantung2 lah balloons around the house:)

 

The girls were happy to see the balloons- their birthday will be next week on 24/6- May to August is a busy month for us - 25/5 my anniversay, 16/6 Uwan birthday/Father's Day, 24/6 TiaMia's Birthday,29/7 my birthday, 31/8 papa's birthday..he he...cakes all the way from May up to August!

 



 

 

I set up makan2 event outside the house, the weather was quite good on Saturday.

 



 

The simple set up was done then  time to check the food- the food was simple too, i made some of uwan's favourite,the rest were potluck from the Maklang,Kak Ikin etc.

 

 

I roasted two Sakura Chickens- one was spicy buffalo ranch chicken and the other one was non pedas oyster sauce with honey and dark soy.The gemuks chicken took nearly 2 hours to cook but it was cooked to perfection and tasted really good.

 

Maklang brought gulai tangkis with ikan baung sungai.

 

I cooked gulai udang galah harimau with sweet rebung and terung telunjuk.

 

I made sambal ikan bilis petai too.

 

It is always nice to sembahyang ber imamkan Pashik- duduk ramai2 tunggu Maghrib- sangat seronok:)

 

Alhamdulillah Syukur Allah atas nikmat,peluang dan kebahagiaan yang diberi.

 

Everything is ready.

 

Big basket (nearly 6 kgs) from Pashik to Uwan.

 

And it was for Tia Mia too- Thank You Pashik!

 

I love to do gathering outside the house at night- i like to look at the glowing lights and candles in the night.

 

Also it reminds me of Hari Raya.

 

 

The happy girl:)

 

 

Alhamdulillah and Thank You girls kerana bersabar menunggu doa yang panjang- doa buat yang telah tiada dan syukur tak terhingga ke pada Allah swt, moga semua nya diberkati dapat bertemu Ramadhan, diberi kesihatan yang baik utk beribadah dan terus dapat menikmati bahagia.Amin.

 

Cakes from Secret recipe- The white one was Tiramisu from us to uwan and papa while the carrot cake and brownies were from Kak Ikin.

 

Terima kasih Emak, tak terbalas oleh kami budi mu- ampunkan lah dosa2 kami samada yang kami sedari atau tidak sedari dan Ya Allah kasihi lah ibu kami sebagaimana dia telah mengasihi kami semasa masih kecil.Amin.

 

 

Yeay uwan, sila ambik tempat.

 

Tia Mia tumpang lah cake Uwan dulu ye;)

 

It was a good night anak2 dan cucu2, menantu etc di sekeliling Uwan.

 

Then makan time- so syok makan dalam gelap bawah lilin:);)

 

Good bonding time.

 

The true candlelight dinner;)

 

Macam2 lauk ada termasuk lah sup tulang, bee hoon goreng etc.

 

Uwan is also enjoying her birthday dinner yang di masak anak2;)

 

Then present time- Tia Mia tak sabar2 nak bagi because 3 of us( behind papa's back )went to buy present for papa:)

 

Papa got one gergaji (saw) ha ha from us..lupa nak snap gambar dah bukak:)- Now papa boleh buat banyak tables and chairs lagi.

 

Uwan pulak dapat benda yang orang perempuan walaupun dah tua masih suka- i didn't buy her the real gold- cukup lah ada sikit- these set is accesories jewellery to make her happy and pakai hari2;) Tia Mia made special butterfly card for Uwan- butterfly is their favourite:)

 

And papa has kapok guitar from us- yeayyyy papa can now belt us some songs:)

 

Very meaningful to see happiness on people's face- especially the one you love- he's a special man,husband and father and we love him very much:)

 

Special pose of Uwan and pashik- My emak looks very beautiful in my Kaftan isn't she? Can believe she's already 90:) Syukur ya Allah.

 

The two beautiful people;)

He he cheeky pose with uwan.

 

Well that's the story:)- It was a tiring but happy weekend- semalam mengecat rumah dengan husband nak patah pinggang penat:)

 

last night i keluarkan pack pecal beli dari Manado hari tu, suruh heni rebus sayur2..adohhh sedap banget kuah pecak ni..kalau tau hari tu mesti i beli berpack-pack,just tambah air.

 

I am, not a great fan of Pecal or gado2 but this one is definitely to my liking- sangat sedap- pedas, manis,rasa belacan semua cukup..rasa nak terbang manado beli banyak2 lagi lah;)

 

Okay lah..itu cerita kami:) ta taaaa.
