RAYA blues with hubby .....


It was raya eve and we all were stuck in the kitchen helping to prepare all the ingredients. We cut this and that, blending this and that, washing plates after plates and mopping the house. Basically we did everything we were supposed to do to make sure everything was going as planned.


We managed to finished all the pre-cooking by 1 am, before we all turned in to sleep. We were so tired our whole body was aching(how nice if we had the ogawa massage chair at home). Serious it like we been working since morning and came back home stared 2nd shift, without any rest owh well.


The following day we all woke up a bit late then we were supposed to, and stared to cook. By the time everything was finished we had a shower and "the salam ceremony", after all that I followed Hubby and family to the grave to visit the deceased as its their culture.


After all that was the baest part eating all the yummy-lious food. We had Ayam Masak Merah, Rendang, Ketupat,Nasi impit, Lontong, Ayam Masak Kicap, and lots more I cant even remember. Then as usual we had guest over at our place.

After lunch hubs and me and a mission to go and find Almond London which is my favorite cookie during raya, we search high and low for it. We didn't find it till Raya 4, we managed to get from larkin bus station. How happy was I hmmm....you had to see it on your own. Amount of time and energy spend to get the cookie was paid off, thank goodness.


The rest of the raya days was spend by cleaning up, washing up and cooking for guest that kept on coming. And don't even bother asking about duit raya hampeh didn't even get any, of course I am an adult I should be the one giving.
