Makan-Makan




Today we had a hi-tea to welcome another two Malaysians family to Oman – Hj Amin n Raja. Hj Amin has been here quite sometime n just brought his family to stay here while Raja just arrived here 2 weeks ago. The event started at 3.45pm. One by one all the guests came (well actually the same usual colleagues). The guest of honour finally came at one hour later.

Everybody attacking him for his lateness, especially moms! We just love to make him feel guilty. After that everybody started eating n enjoying the food. Today I made mee kari, dadih n cheesecake. I’m always thankful to have my friends – Rohaya, Lyn, Zaireen n Oja who never turn up with their empty hands.

No matter what occasions that we made, all the moms will always busy preparing n trying their best to make dish n desert. Well actually this is the time we can show our skills.. :). We always say to each other that if we r in Malaysia, we will never want to do all this. Just imagine u can buy any kuih with 3 or 4 for RM1. Even if u want to order kuih in bulk it is still cheap compare with all the efforts n hard work that u have to do. To make traditional kuih require a lot of patience coz it’s sometime jadi n tak jadi!

When come to think about this, we glad that we learned n gained lots of skills n knowledge in cooking. Especially me.. I just love to explore n venture into a new recipe.

Last night we also gathered at the PDO hill to watch the fireworks. The kids just love watching it. Each time when the fireworks hit the sky they were screaming excitedly. The show last for ½ hour. After that all of us headed to our favourite ‘jalan-jalan cari makan’ place.. where else? It’s YAHYA.. the Turkish food with YAHYA around who always greet us ‘Selamat Kembali’ each time when we went to his place. Hj Zunaidi treated us last night for his triumph of getting his driving licence. Bravo!

p/s: Good luck to Rohaya for her 6th road test tomorrow. Hopefully she'll get thru it.
