Laksam & Nasi Kerabu Iftar



What a fun day it was....

It began with a cold, rainy morning when I actually forgo studying due to the demanding tired body. However, I received a call from Abg Zorro at about 9 am asking me to come in to the office in order to finish up the consol accounts. There goes my Saturday!

Before I went to the office, had to run some errands in order to prepare for the big iftar tonight. Hence, went to the Pasar Besar to get some fish and ulam-ulam for the laksam and nasi kerabu.

Rushed to the office after dropping off the groceries at home. Was already at my cubicle, crunching numbers, by 11 am. Unfortunately, Mr. Tilam was in too.. Urrggghh... Ran through the accounts with Abg Zorro and got everything done by 1 pm. Since it was still early, I decided to update on my filings and managed to cleared out most of my in-tray stuffs. Hah... that's what we call efficient! *winks*

Got back at around 3 pm and helped out Ema (maid) in the kitchen, preparing the laksam for the laksa kelantan. It was actually fun to actually take time off from all the studying that I've been doing and do some cooking instead.



Laksam & ulam


The troop (Aunt & family and Cousin & family) came at around 6.30 pm. Aunt had prepared the rice and all the lauk for Nasi Kerabu. It looked oh so delicious that I was constantly looking at my watch to check the time for berbuka. On top of that, she had also prepared karipap and some puddings too! It seems that the cravings for karipap actually runs in the family. My lil' cousin actually asked his mom to prepare it almost every single day! Cool!

It has been a long time since we had a dinner gathering like tonight. And it was a fun occasion indeed. However, it would have been two times merrier if Lil Sis & Ducky Cousin were at home instead of in Perth & Japan. Well girls, just click here to see what you guys have missed tonight (warning: jangan emo ok).

Hope everyone had a great iftar too...!
