it has been awhile since i last blog. mashaAllah, alot... alot of stuff to talk about. let's see if i can list almost all of them here. inshaAllah.
ok... let's start with ramadhan, e blessed month. how do i find this ramadhan? compare it to the previous one. better? the reply only lies with Almighty Allah. nonetheless, it was definitely different than how i go through the last one. mashaAllah. every ramadhan is a whole lot of new experience- new discoveries, new friendships, new bonds if they are not new then they were re-newed. anyway, it never cross my mind that i would actually sit down on the kitchen floor with ibu & helped her with all the baking... i still can't believe till today. haha. really... alhamdulillah ala kulli hal. now, i can proudly say... 'kueh ini dan itu & kek ini, saya yang buat'. =)
right from the beginning of ramadhan, Kak Sis commented that 'budak ni mesti tak nak tolong buat kueh tau'. obviously, she was referring to me lah (as expected). memang malas & tak kuasa pun nak tolong- that's me in ramadhan coz so leceh to cetak2 & wash all those utensils. subhanAllah. But then with Allah's plan, my cycle came 2x this month and everyone in the house knowing me tak puasa, lagi i kena tolong kat dapur. haha. baru nak duduk kat kitchen. ibu just push the mixing bowl, flour, butter & sugar to me. sungguh terkejut but i shall not complain. =) it was a success though. alhamdulillah. those were the biscuits.
then came the cakes... 4 marble butter cakes, ok. this time, got assistant. my adik. we started after dzhur till almost iftar time. penat tau. plus... got some mishaps & accident. 1st cake didn't look too good bcoz adik didn't read the instructions completely. thanx, dik... :p but alhamdulillah, still tasted nice. by the 4th cake, we can close our eyes to do it. haha. oh ya, not forgetting, the 3 stripes on my delicate fingers- burnt moi self while trying to take out the cakes. kena 3x seh. subhanAllah. anyway, those cakes were baked with love. for those dear to me & family.
2 nites before raya, unexpected last minute shopping for Kak Sis. We iftar at KFC (the only iftar i had outside this time) & headed to IKEA. punya lah byk melayu kat sana. finally (after all these years), we got a 'bed' for her. ok... it was a D-I-Y bed. gotta fix & carry ourselves tau. punya lah berat. i hate to carry heavy stuff (to someone, pls take note of this in the future). but terpaksa tolong my sis lah. adik carry all those plastic bags while Kak Sis & me carried the bed. we couldn't stop laughing. kelakar. jalan mcm ketam. hahaha. but so sad lah, taxi driver bukan nak tolong the ladies to (at least) assist us to take it out from his boot. astarghfirullah. but takpe, managed to bring it back home though.
at almost 12 midnite... ayah, adik & me, assembled her bed. subhanAllah. this one really taxing. ini pun kelakar. walaupun penat tapi sungguh bersemangat. got it all in viewcam (not for the view of non- mahram). on top of that, adik was in the spirit of vacuuming every corner of the house this time. to Kak Sis: pls do not discard the bed for at least 5 more years.
alrite... that's about all this time. wokay, that was how i spent my last 2- 3 days of ramadhan. cleaning the house basically. the rest were private moments. we'll catch up soon, inshaAllah... =)
