Raya Ketiga and the Rest Of It...

Woke up late. Very. Then lazed around in our respective kain pelekat and kain batik makan breakfast and resumed our gossips. Hai…. Luckily it was not Ramadhan… err… if that is any consolation lah. Ian we thought was already on his way to his son and he thought we already left for Raya elsewhere. Ha ha...

My Uncle E dah chop raya ketiga waktu pagi. Turn rumah dia, he said. So everybody went to his house in droves. More food.

Menu : Mee soup, chocolate cake, fruit cocktail jelly, tonnes of kuih raya

He he…. It was fun. Sambung gossip…

Baru nak mula makan...

Makan sambil bergossip.

Dan makan lagi... Why am I wearing jeans ? Because my baju raya terbakar then berlubang when I ironed them ! Waaaa !

Stayed awhile, sembang-sembang then head back to Uncle Mat’s house for lunch.

Menu : Kari kepala ikan, kari sotong, sayur kacang goreng, broccoli and black mushrooms in oyster sauce, fried chicken.

Ana makan.

Kamil makan. Ermm... there are no other activities to be done ?

In order for his family to eat in comfort, my Uncle placed plastic tables all over the kitchen so much so when Umar entered the area he exclaimed, “Wow ! Macam restaurant !” Ha ha….

Kamil had agreed to leave Perak late afternoon, at my aunt’s behest. She dangled the promise of sup ayam masak dalam buluh which intrigued us but sadly at 2, Mail who was already on the way home (as he has to report to Hospital Muar the very next day) called to say he had left his white lab coat at our house. Sigh…. Had to leave early then.

Perak is actually very pretty, with the rolling hills and greenery.

The journey home was not that smooth as certain highway exits were jammed up.

Home sweet home but sad thinking about my lovely family in Perak. Had KFC for dinner !! Ha ha….

And the Raya yang seterusnya

My mom’s cousins Mak Teh and Mauk Unggei came one afternoon. Mum cooked lovely Meehoon Singapore.

As they were about to leave, my cousins Shah and Boy came for raya with their families. Sadly their mom, mak Ngah was still in Penang.

Had shisha Raya with the Bs. Belum beraya together yet tapi shisha raya dulu. It was really cosy, the way Anu made up his harem… he he…. When we got there, Shazmi dok terlentok, punya relax. Kah kah… Kamil bengang sebab dia kena bawak bini. B yang lain tu flying solo. Sorry aaa… They are my friends, too.

Anu served us lovely tart nenas but I was too full for some reason and could only manage one. Told my friends the sweet thing their friend did for me. He he…. They congratulated me for having a bloody wonderful husband. Shazmi said, “Kamil… please do not up the husband ante any further….”

Bro, this is after 10 years of marriage, okay. Lagi haru kalau cakap after 17 years of being together. So the Best B Husband award is still up for grabs. But no, he is quite wonderful (at the moment lah…).

This picture reminds me of the kekecohan that ensued when Saiful Apek was photographed smoking shisha. He was branded a drug addict. Don't know if it was really drugs he took then but ignorance can actually breed fitnahs. This one is lemon flavoured, okay ?
