Adilfitri 2007

Tahun kelima beraya sbg husband n wife…
Seronok? seronoklah..of course…..
Tp kalo Tanya meriah???
Frankly speaking…kemeriahan semakin berkurang….
Sangat berbeza sekarang…
Especially bila dah beranak pinak ni…
Bukanlah kata bila ada anak jadi x meriah…
Cuma…masa yg ada tu lebih tertumpu pada persiapan anak2…
Persiapan rumah pulak…ala kadar saje…
Takde acara masak-masak…kalo saya buat pun..sape yg dtg beraya?

Side hubby…kakak n abg dia balik kampong dah petang hari raya pertama..
While my side…mak biasa nya ada kt rumah..(dia 3rd eldest) so biasa nya adik2 dia (my uncles) akan dtg beraya rumah kitaorg…ataupun sepupu2 mak nk dtg beraya…
Macam raya kedua aritu…12 keta dtg serbu rumah mak…
Mmg dari awal pakcik tu dah bgtau…nk dtg..dia ni sepupu mak..
Dia pulak kalo dtg surely dgn anak beranak sekali…(mmg style kitaorg gitu)…
So since before raya mak dah bgtau..2nd raya tolong dia masak….
Jadi nya..2nd raya for us…dah x pakai bj raya..dari pagi sampai menjelang tghri…masak…kami buat mkn tghri….nasi beserta lauk-lauk…gulai nenas ikan masin,sayur campur,tempoyak ikan bilis dan ikan keli goring panas2…
Alhamdulillah…foods sume cukup…sempat jugak kami baca doa selamat skali…J

Macam rumah saya..kalo saya buat masak2 jugak..jadikla open house…tradisi org bandar gitu kan..
Tahun ni..kami x buat open house..lepas 2 thn berturut2 buat..rasa nk rehat la tahun ni…
Tapi…kawan2 bukanlah bermakna kami tutup pintu terus…jemput dtg..sgt di alu-alukan..yang penting bgtau dulu…manalah tahu kami tiada dirumah…paling tidak pun sempat la saya menyediakan hidangan…

Sebulan beraya…kalo ikut adat menziarah…mmg x cukup..itu kalo betul2 ziarah our family tree..sedara mara belah atuk dan nenek..
Bersepah2 kt merata ceruk kl & selangor ni…rasa2 paling jauh kt PJ-Puchong kot..hehehe..
Ini pun baru dpt jumpa 4 uncles out of 8…adik beradik mak 9 org..mak sorang ppuan…
Kalo ikut pangkat…dania dah jadik makcik dah…coz saya ada sepupu yg baru umur 1 thn…hehehhe

Lagi satu terasa kurang kemeriahan dia…takbir raya…kebiasaan kami di area rumah mak tu…mmg ada org ‘hantar takbir’..sama ada malam..atau pagi 1st raya..tp..since kami pindah ke rumah skang…tradisi tu mcm x idup…yg dtg pagi raya..hanya baca doa selamat saje…takbir nye xde….so rasa sedikit hambar…

Tp side hubby pulak…diorg still bertakbir…masalahnya..diorg lambat…dekat kol 12 tgh mlm baru sampai…dah mamai..dah tuan rumah ngantuk….:)

Ada lg satu terasa kurang nikmat berhari raya skang ni…saya pendamkan jauh di lubuk hati…saya x dpt berterawikh…sebagai mana masa anak dara dulu…dan masa 1st time beraya as wife…masa tu still xde anak…
Skang ni cuma hubby dpt ke surau berhampiran utk terawikh…sedihhh tul rasa…masa tu la br nyesal x amek maid…hahaha..
Dan lastly yg ‘kureng’ bab raya ni…dah 2 tahun x dpt gi kubur atuk dan nenek…2 thn berturut..’raya’ dulu before raya…jadiknya x dpt la mengaji kt kubur atuk nenek…
Stakat mengaji dari jauh la utk diorg…huhuhu…sedeyynyaaa….:(

Seronok raya ni part masak2 tulah kan…sape setuju…hehehe
Puas hati kalo dpt menyediakan sendiri juadah utk tetamu…
Alhamdulillah..at my side..adik beradik boleh diharap…SIL sorang tu pun boleh diharap…
Berkat kak long nye ni jugak membebel saban tahun…
Side hubby…? Diorg masak jugak…tp…gulp….i would like to reserve my comments…buat spoil je kang entry kali nih…hehehhe

Macam tu lah raya kami di KL nih…
Rasanya pada saya yg semakin meningkat umur ni…nk rasa betul2 meriah tu….kena tunggu anak2 da besar esok…ada tukang sibuk kt dapur…yg boleh diharap membantu mama nye ni masak2…(kena train tu…)

Masa tu rasanya…baru havoc sket rumah ni…InsyaAllah…moga umur panjang dan murah rezeki….aminn

Pre Aidilfitri 2007

backdated entry

as planned..on thursday 2 day before raya we were off and clean our own house.

i'm able to re-arrange a little bit of the furnitures.

when we enter the house about 2 yrs ago, my husband bought a set of 3-2-1 seater sofa set, an 8 seater of dining table, those furnitures really takes a lot of space for our 20x65 house. at that time i couldnt say anything, it was his money and during that time i was heavily pregnant nadzim.malas nk survey from one shop to another.we just picked the one showed in cavenzi showroom.

so last week i managed to make the house more spacious. i'll put the picture later..hehe..

on friday..we went to my mother's house..anyam ketupat (my hubby did).dekat 50 kelonsong jugakla dia anyam.while nadzim n dania play around with their aunties, i help my mom to prepare the 5 kilo rendang daging.

bila da siap masak ketupat baru lah kami balik ke cheras.singgah ke rumah MIL,send some of the ketupat and wait for the 'takbir'.at MIL's house my SIL da siap masak nasi beriyani dan ayam masak merah.saya da x lalu makan..kenyang makan masa maghrib.5 minit b4 org takbir dtg kami pun balik.dah dekat kol 12 dah tu..bdk2 ni pun dah meragam nk tdo..

Raya 2007

Macam x excited je tahun ni...hehehhee..

Guess why..?

sbb this year..turn pagi raya di cheras...muahahahhaa..

sungguh childish kan...:D

actually bukanlah x excited..

tp preparation da buat awal sket...starting from June, i bought the kain ela for baju kurung..which all of us in my side..sedondon..this year kaler coklat kehijauan...

kuih raya...i decide no kuih this year..just beli kerepek2 n kacang..so guys..sape nk dtg please inform earlier..at least i could goreng bihun..hehhe

langsir..had to buat a new set..bukan apa,since october 2005 itulah langsir yang tergantung.the only one..guess its time to put the new one so that the current boleh sent to laundry.

what else?i did buy a new set of cushion cover at jln tar,rm17 for 4 pieces.Our brown sofa takdelah boring sgt nnt rupanya.

the kids...baju kurung n bj melayu sepasang sorang.bj jln pulak ada 2-3 pasang sorang.I plan to go shopping at midvalley,but xtahan nak mengadap org ramai we ended up shopping at parkson kajang.(pun ramai jugakkk...)

i hope last weekend i'm able to hang the new curtain,wash all new clothes,wash the biscuit container but only on monday,i'm only able to wash the new clothes only,minus bj kurung n bj melayu dania n nadzim still x siap..the sheer curtain pun blom siap.. :(

The kids were not feeling well on Sunday,dania demam n tdo the whole day..minum susu je.

while nadzim pun demam plus throwing up everytime i gave him his milk.

We will start off for raya on thursday, hubby n i will clean the house,arrange the furniture,trim the grass or should i say lain kali jgn tanam rumput la abang..kalo xmo jaga..

On Friday, off to gombak, helping my mom cook rendang,anyam ketupat,rebus n buat kuah kacang.heh itupun kalo budak2 ni x mengacau.

I hope there's some spare time that i can use for baking a choclate cake.The only thing i miss during preparation for raya.

baju raya dania n nadzim..gaun dania blom beli..ayah dia da bising..sungguh x sporting btul dia bab2 shopping ni..
