From Aku, with love

Tomorrow ( February  1 ) is not only my niece's wedding in Melaka but it will be my nephew's  "Majlis Sambut Menantu" in Kelantan.  The same date. It's sad because we can only attend one venue. And I think my sister needs me more to help her tomorrow and that's why my husband and I made that decision. May Allah bless both ceremonies.  Aamiin ya Allah. 

Preparing the ingredients for sambal udang. My son helps me with the dried chillies - cut, boil and blend.  He will also help me with the onions - peel. Thank youuu. I will clean the prawns and cook it , maybe at 2 or 2.30 p.m. Oh ya, not forgetting gula Melaka, salt and tamarind paste. The akad nikah ceremony will be tonight.  So I'm not worried. Yes, yes, yes we can do it! Alaa only sambal udang. It's not rendang. 

On my blog, I prefer to write all about myself - my experiences, my hobbies, my loved ones, my friends. Easy to say, all about me. And the title of my blog also states it well, "From aku,.." which means "From me,....". So it's all about me ler. Simple! Or is it "Sempoi"?

My husband, my mother and I attended Kak T's daughter's wedding. Kak T is my former colleague. She invited my mother too because our families performed Umrah together in 2017. We used the same travel agency. That's how she knows my mother.  I congratulated Kak T for her daughter's wedding. So happy for her.  And I'm also very happy because I met Kak F, Kak M, Kak Z, Kak N, Kak A and Kak G there. A few said that I put on weight. Yup, it's ok laa "Orang Pencen".

We had Shellout at Restoran Selera Kampungku, Klebang this evening. It's in Melaka ler. It has been months since the last time we came to this restaurant. I love the seafood and the 3 rasa sauce. There are other Shellout restaurants here that you can choose. After having our early dinner, we went home. I did not feel like going to other places. Staying at home is better.

I listened to a talk on Israk Mikraj at the mosque last night. It's a one hour talk and a very good one. I didn't fall asleep. He talked about Al Quran, Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and also other prophets , Israk Mikraj and he emphasized to keep reminding ourselves that we are only Allah's slaves (hamba Allah). He asked us to always praise Allah. Subhanallah Walhamdulillah Wala Ilaha Illallah Wallahu Akbar.  Ok, it's time for gardening. Take care.

W : Alamak the cafe is closed today. H : Where do you want to go? W : Remember the restaurant that we went to last time.  It's .............. H : That's quite far. W : I don't mind. I love jalan-jalan, not jalan kaki.  H : Yes, but who's driving? Krik krik, krik Kirk, krik krik..........
