From Aku, with love

I went to the market with my husband this morning. I thought of not buying a lot as my mother is not staying with us this week but I still bought "banyak". Ish Ish ish. When I was in the market, I always looked at the things first like the fish, the vegetables, .......Then I would think of the menu and the recipe ingredients. We are the one who are going to cook in our office ( the kitchen ler ), so we know better what to buy. Today, I'm going to cook ikan kerapu tomyam stim and kerabu udang. I asked my friend, Nyonya what I can cook if I buy kerapu fish from her. So she gave me her recipe. Ok lah. Thank you.  So, are you ready to cook? On your mark, get set, go....

I have already bought two hampers of Tupperware Party Keeper set. They're for my niece's and my nephew's wedding. The weddings will be next year. Well, they look nice on the online catalogue and the price is ok, so better order.  And I'm planning to give angpow to my sister. Not that much. She can use it for the wedding preparation.  And we're going to Melaka today. It's my brother's son's big day. It's his engagement and as his Mak Su,  I'm very happy for him.  It's rainy season here in Malaysia. Please take care ok. 

Husband and wife had a dinner date in a cafe. W : Did your colleagues always come to this cafe? H : Yup. Like yesterday, a few of them came here after school. W : That's quite far. H : Yes. They're good friends. W : Wah. Can I go to New Zealand with my friends? H : Do you know where New Zeland is? W : Ok, ok, ok. Sorry.

Met my mosque gang last night. I didn't know they miss my presence. Even when I entered the women's praying area, the two kakak looked surprised but excited to see me. Why? They just mentioned my name and I was there. Hahaha oklah. Alhamdulillah. I think I should go to the mosque often. Insya- Allah. 

Wan Su called her niece but her niece's daughter, An answered it. She is three years old.  An : Hello WS : Hello An. Wan Su ni. An : Hello Wan Su.  WS : Where's ibu? An : Ibu is praying. WS : Oh it's ok. Nenek ada? An : Ada. WS : Ok good. Can you please call nenek. An : Nenek ada. Ada di rumah dia. WS : Ohhhhhhh.  Ok. Thank you An.

My mother returned to her home this morning. Before that , we had breakfast at the new cafe in Bandar Satelit. It's her second time. She loves the food and I'm happy to take her there. Moreover, her teeth are ok now. Both of us had mi Bandung and I also ordered a set of dim sum, our favourite.  Today, my husband has no extra class, so I cooked something special for my family, sambal sotong petai and fried pak Choi with egg. Special lah tu. But something happened while I was cooking my sambal sotong. There's no fire on the gas stove. And I don't know how to replace the gas cylinder. Yalah my husband wanted to teach me before but I didn't want to learn. Serve me right! What did I do? I transferred my sambal to my Europlus emerald multi cooker. I cooked in my pantry today. After taking out my sambal sotong, no need to wash the inner pot. It's non stick. I just used tissue to wipe it clean. Then I continued cooking my fried pak Choi . Easy to cook in my pantry becau...

 It's easy to be a bad person. And it's also easy to be a good person. All from our mind and our heart. We want to help a poor girl. Our mind tells us not to help her. She's not our family. But our heart shouts at us, "Where's your empathy? Help her." Ask ourselves. What do we want in our life? Ops! Sorry.  What do we want? Is it heaven? Set that in our mind, then we'll always try to be a good person.
