Hamper - Duit Raya - Kurma

Allo everyone.. (huhu macam ramai sgt). Semua orang macam dalam mood raya sekarang ni..but I have a certain uneasiness during festive seasons like this. At offices and almost everywhere..i think the same uneasiness exist.I was at the bank today and ramai sungguh org hantar hampers untuk pegawai-pegawai bank. i was on my way bank and i saw a lorry downloading a load full of hampers in front of an office which i dont want to mention.Some of my friends are telling me that they are receiving hampers and some hampers are being sent home.

kalau bulan ramadhan and raya, kuih, kurma dan keke. kalau chinese new year - buah limau. makan sampai batuk seluruh Malaya. Bolehkah kita menerima semua ini? bolehkah kita menerima dah untuk mengelakkan makan sorang kita distribute kepada staff? Bolehkah? bolehkah? apa niat orang bagi hadiah ni? kalau kita tak kerja di situ orang tak bagi hamper pon kan? kalau kita decline, pujuk rayu siap kata nanti kena marah ngan boss.

Fikirlah sebelum menerima. Kepada bosses, sebelum raya/festivals atau di kaunter sebelum ke dalam pejabat, tulis terang-terang yang hamper atau seberang hadiah tidak diterima. staff pon lega tak payah pikir pening kepala nak kena tepis hadiah-hadiah dari orang luar. tapi boss pon takleh la terima hadiah di rumah.

Selamat Hari Raya.Maaf Zahir Batin.

Cheese Cake

Semalam teringin nak makan cheese cake. tapi keinginan itu dihentikan sbb cheese cake hang alot of eggs especially egg yolks to which i am allergic to. The longing for cheese cake came after watching Nigella Bites...huhuhuh

Tapi the story i would like to tell about the cheese cake this time is not mine. Yesterday when i was talking and drooling about cheese cake, my aunt told me a story about my late eldest uncle who died last year at the age of 73.After his death..his wife (my mum's SIL) who has the penyakit 3 serangkai misses his husband terribly asyik menangis, and banyak la cerita about the things she misses about the husband came out.

On valentines day, my uncle until the year before he passed, gave a bouquet of roses and cheese cake to the wife every year.. on the day of her birthday, he presented her with a new baju, comb her hair for her and ask her to wear make up, so that she will feel beautiful.. while telling this my aunt started to tear and i was holding back tears.

He was such a loving husband. He was hard to forget. I did not want cheese cake after that..sob sob..

Bukan Salah Murtabak..

Hi everyone.Selamat berpuasa.In this month,ramailah peniaga-peniaga baru muncul macam nobody's bisnes.Tetiba banyaklah usahawan-usahawan muncul..banyaklah artis2 jual lauk and kuih..

rata-rata and especially in Ampang ..anything you sell will go. and because of that some unscrupulous 'once a year businessmen' ni jual sesuka hati dan buat untung sekelip mata..selling mende2 yg takder rasa,takder masin, takder manis..hello..kalau taktau masak jgn jual makanan la.. jual la kasut!

i am very angry today. although after surgery i cant eat egg, i told myself that its already a week..ok la kot. So, dengan gagahnya pi beli murtabak. so, naturally bila beli murtabak dapat sedikit kari dan sedikit bawang merah direndam cuka (seperti gambar di atas yang bukan merupakan gambar sebenar)

When i got home, i was shocked to my bones! dalam plastic kecik yg sepatutnya ada bawang berwarna merah.. there was only air cuka warna merah! after getting all worked up and berbakul2 caci maki keluar dari mulut ini (forgive me God), my aunt told me that she experienced the same thing from the same stall on the 2nd of Ramadhan. Goodness!!

Kan lebih baik kalau dia kata bawang dia habis?? that would be better!takder org nak marah dia daripada dia tipu customers dia ngan air bawang !!

Tomorrow, he will definitely be getting a piece of my boiling mind!
