Raya Decor @ Mid Valley 2017

This year punyer raya decor still berkonsepkan kampung. Last year's theme was batik and you can see some of my previous photos here.

The ‘kampong’ life community is essential in Malaysian tradition, and you are invited to explore it and be reminded of family togetherness and traditions worth keeping.

Suasana kampung with cardboard standee. 

 

Main view at centre court.

  

Ayam di reban dan awek di depan pintu.

 

Gerai makan2 cam rendang, cendol etc. Leh duduk situ makan.

  

Salam Aidilfitri

Im sure all of us missed the sweetness of Ramadhan already. Selamat menyambut hari raya aidilfitri. Maaf zahir & batin from us. Be safe wherever you are. 

Iftar with Colleagues @ Cotango, Majestic

Dapat jemputan berbuka puasa from vendor so tingin lah jugak nak join the colleagues berbuka puasa sesama. Kat Majestic Hotel summore. Heard the buffet cost was RM149+ per pax. We reached there around 6.30 and kene tunggu kejap kat lobby till they allow orang to start masuk.

 

The buffet spread. Since we were early birds, i got to take photos all the food belom berusik. Cantek jer all the food arrangements.

  

  

We aimed lobster first because yang nih for sure abes cepat and lambat replenish. I only took one sbb takot muak since it was deep fried. The marinade tepung tuh sedap.

The rest ada seafood, sushi, lauk pauk, roasted chicken/ lamb etc.

 

 

  

I did not amik rice/ noodle at all. Ratah lauk semata. 

 

This was what i took for first round. Deep fried lobster, buttermilk prawn, tempura, grilled mackerel.

Dessert here macam controlled item. Sumernya susun blakang counter. Bagus lah jugak elak wastage. Air macam2 rasa free flow. Ice cream flavour pon bukan yang biasa2 punyer siap ada sorbet.

  

 

What i took....yang paling sedap was the raspberry cheese cake

Our table.

Alhamdulillah rezeki makan sedap. If nak pegi sendiri and bayar banyak cemtuh for buffet memang tak laaa. 

[Copy Paste] Bila Mommies Packing

Walaupon x balik kampung i can totally relate to this biler nak packing jalan jauh or travelling. 

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Jangan kau pertikai apa bini kau buat.

Jangan ingat kemas beg tu senang.

Walaupun kemas beg tu like kemas BEG je, tapi ia merupakan task paling mencabar bagi seorang isteri.

Dia perlu fikiran yang tenang, mood yang stabil, fokus yang bertumpu dan masa yang optimum untuk lakukan task tu dengan baik.

Jangan kau fikir semua baju adalah BAJU.

Baju ni ada banyak jenis baju.

Baju balik kampung.

Baju untuk masak di malam raya.

Baju pagi raya.

Baju ke dapur pada hari raya.

Baju berjalan ke rumah saudara.

Baju casual di malam hari pada hari raya.

Tu baru kategori baju isteri tu sendiri.

Belum masuk tudung.

Tudung jangan kau ingat satu jenis je.

Ada tudung sarung untuk ke dapur.

Ada shawl nak pakai pagi raya.

Ada tudung bawal nak match dengan baju casual.

Inner tudung.

Anak tudung.

Pin tudung.

Pin ni pun ada banyak kelas.

Pin kat telinga kena tajam.

Pin kat dagu kene kecik.

Pin kat bahu kena besar sikit.

Pin kat baju kebaya kena besar gedabak.

Pin baju biasa tu pun kena ada takut kain longgar 😂😂😂

Belum baju anak.

Uiii..tu lagi banyak jenis.

Baju raya.

Baju bila dah tengah hari.

Baju tidur.

Baju ganti kalau baju raya dah comot.

Baju kalau tido dalam aircond.

Baju untuk turn tidur rumah yang takde aircond.

Baju berlubang, baju takde lubang.

Tu kalau seorang anak.

Kalau ada 5?6? 😂

Suami punya pun dia kena fikirkan jugak.

Bukan takat baju melayu je.

Butangnya, sampin nya, songkoknya. 

Itu baru baju.

Baju tu pulak ada dekat 20 pasang yang dia dah siap iron. Siap congak hari pertama baju ni, hari kedua baju ni. Kalau seminggu kau balik kampung, ha memang nak roboh lah handle tangan kat ceiling kereta tu dia sangkut. Silap aribulan boleh melengkung bumbung kereta.

Belum dia nak bawa balik kipas, tilam, bantal selimut, extension, ubat nyamuk letrik dan segala keperluan alat tidur agar tidur suami dan anak anak lena.

Iron pun dia bawak weh!

Kasut?

Ha..ada kasut raya.

Ada kasut kalau nak pergi pasar kat rumah mak nanti.

Ada kasut kalau nak jalan jauh.

Hmmmmmm 😯

Fuh...tu je..

Tu je?

Belummmmmm...

Kuih raya..kerepek raya..kek lapis..kek coklat...serunding..dodol...

Ha...mandi cemane mandi...

Sabun mak..sabun anak..sabun bapak tak payah. Dia tibai je sabun apa apa yang ada dalam bilik mandi tu karang. 

Shampu, ubat gigi, berus gigi, semua tu mesti cukup. Takde nak main sebat je orang lain punya walaupun dalam bilik air rumah mak tu karang ada dekat 10 jenis sabun mandi sebab semua orang bawak sendiri punya 😂

Ha..ok...cukup dah kot. Nak meletup dah pun beg tu ha.

Eh...ada lagi!

Barang mekaaappppp...

Bedak anak, bedak mak, shaver bapak, minyak rambut bapak..deodoran aih semualah... Ketip kuku pun dia bawak.. Cotton bud.. Dan penyepit bulu ketiak pun ada. Entah bila dia ada masa nak proses pun tak tahu 😜

Charger handphone..charger charger..

Tuuuuu kalau dia tak ingat memang takde le bercaj handphone tu karang.

Dan...dan...

Dia siap ada plan kontigensi.

Bawak panadol..minyak angin..blood pressure meter..home thermometer..mopiko..tiger balm..kot anak demam lah..takut anak kene gigit sengkenit lah. Macam macam.

Jarum jahit pun ada..benang..gunting...kot tertetas jahitan kat ketiak ke..tercabut butang baju raya anak ke..

Haaaaa......

Fuhh...legaa....

A Quick Stop @ Sogo

Hari tuh sempat singgah sogo kejap after an appointment. Cuaca pon redup, traffic pon just nice, sedap sket berjalan dengan laju.

Baru discovered there's one floor yang direvamped baru. I noticed ada few famous online brands bukak physical store here. Iols dah lama tak ke sogo, memang tatau lah biler ada benda nih hehe. Maybe dah berzaman dah pon. But i like it because it looks more refreshing. 

Baru jer browse poplook website hari tuh. Sooo biler nampak ada their physical store here, terus excited gi belek the material and size. 

The rest of the stuff on this floor. Rasa cam nak beli that butterfly shoes because the prints cantek2. But for me too mahal for kasut lipat2 and nipis. Next time jelah. 

  

Dinner @ Junction 11, SA

2 days before Ramadhan, me and Jeeb went out for a quick dinner date. Main criteria were food ala2 kedai tomyam, cepat and dekat. But both of us don't have enough cash time tuh. Nak pegi carik ATM rasa cam waste of time because nak cepat2 makan and pickup the kids. So jenuh laaa kitowang dua carik duit selit dalam wallet and budget agak2 cukup baru confident kluar keta haha. We ordered char koay tiaw for two, 1 watermelon juice and 1 lime juice.

The food was sedap. We had a nice chit chat instead of tengok phone (guilty as charged).

Guess what, we still have more than few ringgits left hehehe. More than enough to order side dish, but mostly sumer kene tunggu lama. Simple things are the best.
