Get 2-Gather

13th of November, we had a get together at my place. It was nothing. The real plan actually for the adults to go for snorkeling and then having their dinner at my house. Plus, there were session of ping pong and ehem.....the ever awaited karaoke competition....Since snorkeling was cancelled due to the low tide in the afternoon, so everybody went straight for dinner and do what ever you like.



I was the one who insisted on making the day since I wanted to learn to cook mee rebus. Kak Faridah, Hj. Shukor's wife helped me out. The only one couldn't turn up was Kak Rohaya since Aida had her swimmiing tournament that day but she still have the time to cook the chicken rice for the kids. Kak Lyn with shepard's pie and dessert while Kak Leha brought over donuts.

National Day


On the 8th of November, the Malaysian Embassy decided to made a national day celebration despite of being late for 3 months...but it's good also...if they had made it earlier I surely didn't get the chance to go.




It started at 7.30 pm and to my surprise it was done at Diplomatic Club which is much, much bigger compared to the one I've been before. Another thing was that The Ambassador had invited quite a lot of degenerates and High ranking people compared to previous year. Food was always been good as there were Satay, local kuih again, Laksa Sarawak and many more. The crowd that turned up for the occasion also was not disappointing. Next time if I get the chance to be invited again, I'll surely go...

International Market Place




7th November, Petroleum Development Oman,PDO, made a market place for its workers from all over the world to sell their specialties either food or handicraft and about just anything to promote one's country.


It goes the same for Malaysia. This time around it was organized by one fellow Sarawakian Malaysian, Frida Jilan. So they set up a stall to sell local delicacies. As I expected my three sisters participated also in the event. As for Frida, she sold Laksa Sarawak. Kak Rohaya, Kak Lynn and Kak Leha was selling chicken rice and curry puff which was a hot stuff that day....Lucky them...A talented business woman all must have been. There were also Nasi Lemak, Fried Kueh Tiaw,Fried Vermicelli and local kuih plus chicken pau.



As usual, the kids were the one who had the fun time....as for the mothers ..complaining tired in a smile....So by the end, there were performance made successful by the Malaysian PDO's children with Joget Pahang and Sarawak cultural dance. It was fun for me too because I don't have to cook that day ..yeah!!

My tiny achievemnet



On Sunday,2nd of November, Aleesha's teacher requested for me to have a party for her at class. After a while, I was cracking my head on what to serve...It just popped out of my head to make cupcakes which I never done before and also jelly as for what I knew the teacher will let the children to eat by themselves. so I guessed cupcakes and jelly won't mess the class that much...


There on, my project begun.. and it was an achievement for me as I never done it before. So a pat on the back for me then.

My princess turns three

On the 31st October, my girl, Aleesha turned three. It was a joyous day of her life as she got to be a princess just like last time.

So the food was as always, simple and edible as you know me.....I'm not good in cooking..still in the learning process. We had spaghetti, nuggets,pizza and fries. The dessert was the birthday cake itself and truffles made by Kak Lyn.



After the stomach filling session, there was the cut cutting session and hitting the pinata. The party started at about 3.30 in the evening and it ended at about 11 at night. Since anything that related to the birthday party ended early so the kids all decided to take part with the trick or treating session as that day also coincidentally was a Halloween Day. So whom ever arrived that day, they were all dressed up. Some being a witch, clown, a Dracula, a cat and also we did had a special appearance of Julius Caesar. Rasyad turned out to be a pirate. Everybody got lots of candies which at the end they don't even consumed it. They just wanna have fun.



As for the parents...The sing all your heart out session continues..which some were disappointed as they cannot get a high score.... It's OK...trust me..there will be next time.

Salam everyone...




Salam to everyone....It's been a while...no it has been long since my last post....I got back from K.L a month now..and yes today I have the time to do some repairing on my posts, my facebook and updating my blogs...



Here are some bits and pieces from my journey back in Muscat. I missed everyone here and definitely my sis, Kak Intan back in Shah Alam....sorry yea I did not get the chance to say goodbye to her...anw, the weekend I arrived Muscat, Kak Leha made a barbeque dinner at her place and continued with the never ever boring session of karaoke...The other week for what I remembered was the session of helping Kak Rohaya and her beloved family to the new home sweet home in Al-Ansab. It's a new housing area for me who hardly been in that area....The house I might say that it is a very spacious. Suitable for her family with two anak daras. Murah rezeki Kak Rohaya.



Then the following weekend where my princess turns three plus all the kids were enjoying themselves with the tric or treating session for Halloween at my house area since these area has ever been the hot spots for parents to drop-off their kids for the Halloween....All that will be in my next post....Alhamdulillah everything went fine...It seems merrier here since Syed's family and Haji Shukor family are here. Sorry Kak
Rohaya for not being much of a help during the pindah randah.
