Selamat Berpuasa.

So dah masuk 2 minggu puasa...cepat sungguh masa kan and alhamdulillah bulan ni dapat habuan gaji 'acting'. Seronok rasanya. Penat lelah kerja. Tiap-tiap Sabtu datang kerja settlekan mana yang patut and kadang2 sambung baca and reply e-mail dari rumah. Tak sabar nak pergi shopping raya untuk anak-anak. Banyak yang I berhutang dengan dia orang.
Kerja ni very addictive. Kepala otak fikir kena habiskan kerja tapi mana pernah kerja habis. Kalau ikutkan Ahad pun nak ke office tapi....heck! lepak rumah dan settlekan kerja2 rumah pula....membasuh, melipat, memasak.....Itu pun tak pernah habis jugak.
Tahun ni my other half passed one tapak berniaga. Apa boleh buat tak ada rezeki. Tak pa la kita tak boleh tamak. Sekurang-kurangnya dapat gaji extra these 3 months yang definitely compensate my ramadhan sales. Alhamdulillah....
Both Shakira and Shakiel have been good this puasa month. Belum ada yang miss except for Shakira,....women issues la. Shakiel bersemangat sungguh sembahyang tarawih kat Musolah Az-Zuhdi. Naik basikat sendiri...kadang-kadang dia bawak balik kueh mueh or bubur. "Untuk mummy" dia kata. Alahai, mana tak cair hati mendengar.....
Paling penat masak dan bersahur. Adakala rasa macam rugi tidur sebab bangun sahur. Tapi memikirkan budak-budak tu...berat hati bangun jugak. We wake up between 2:30 am to 3:00 am. By 4:00 am semua dah masuk tidur balik....hahahaha.....
At work, bulan puasa ni masuk awal for the Muslims, 8:30 am. Lunch 30 minutes and balik 4:30 pm. Ok la tu....
Jadi sebelum terlambat saya sekeluarga nak ucapkan selamat berpuasa dan semoga amalan yang dijalankan bulan ni mendapat berkat dari Nya. Amin.
A Lady In Distress.
Last night I went to my neighborhood Petronas gas station to pump in gas and pump my car tires.
As I park in the first box, I notice a car stopped right behind of me. Nak pump tires jugak ke? I asked Miss Cockroach? Well, why doesn't she take empty spot in front of mine? Ok Ok Ok.....I put in my drive gear any accelarate slowly to the empty spot in front. The car behind move nicely in to what used to be my spot.
I stepped out of the car a lady driver asked me if I can help her pump her tires. Hahahaaaa....gitu rupanya cerita dia...tak tahu pump tayar! Macam baru balik dari swimming with her bathing suit inside and over sized T-shirt up to her tigh.
Me : Kalau tahu bawak kereta kenala tahu macamana nak pump tayar.(Berlagak sikit...hehehe)
Lady : (Smile)
Me : So berapa angin kereta?
Lady : (She looked at my car) Kereta akak berapa?
Me : Eh...mana boleh macam tu. Kereta saya besar dan angin nya pakai banyak. You check kat tepi seatbelt kereta..tepi pintu tu ada dia put sticker.
From the passenger side, she kept on searching along the seat belt....Oh my God...memang tak pernah ambik tahu punya kes la ni....
Me : Bukan kat situ. Sebelah driver's seat sana. (I moved around to the driver's side and showed her where the sticker indicating the tires pressure.) Ni. kat sini, so belakang 190 and depan 210.
Lady : Oh kat situ. (So I showed her how to select the pressure) Saya tak pernah pump tayar. Selalunya bila saya hantar kereta ke workshop, budak kat situ yang tolong pumpkan.
Hehehe teringat masa I mula-mula drive kereta, tak pernah isi angin kereta. Whenever my other half isikan minyak, I akan suruh dia isi angin sekali...heheheheee.
Macamana pun, alhamdulillah. She left and I felt good helping a lady in distress.....

Alfatihah Sharifah Aini

This is the Sharifah Aini that I remember.
She was my dad's favorite singer.
Today we lost a legend music icon to fibrosis in the lungs.
Semoga rohnya ditempatkan dikalangan orang-orang yang beriman. Alfatihah.
King of Fruit - Durian
Recently I drove by our Medan Selera or Food Court and right in front, I see 3 lorries unloading durians....hmmmm wah dah musim durian agaknya sekarang, I thought.
But banyak macam tu sekali? Agaknya orang yang tinggal kat area sini kemaruk durian....to think of it, these days you can get durian any time of the year. Not like 30-35 years ago where durian season was only ....maximum pun twice a year. It's the time where you look forward to go back to kampung.....saudara mara berkumpul, makan beramai-ramai, berebut and gelak ketawa.....all that are gone.
My grandparents had 2 separate kebun durian. Dia orang adik beradik bergilir-gilir kutip durian bila musim durian tiba. Seronok dapat kutip durian. They know which trees produced quality durian and which ones does not. Normally the not so good quality, kita orang buat tempoyak. Itu kerja my grandmother. Lepas sudah 'kupas' durian she will separate the flesh and the pips. The flesh is mixed with a little salt and kept in glass container in the fridge untuk dijadikan tempoyak. Sometimes the good quality durian my grandfather will sell them by the road side. Lepas duit rokok dia cakap....hehehe
Just like my pisang story,....bila musim durian.....macam2 masakan berunsurkan durian. My favourite being pulut durian and santan.....delish!!!!

But these days, I simply lost the thrill to eat durian, tengok pun menyapah...sebab dah terlampau banyak dan tak kira musim. Cuma kalau terasa nak makan tempoyak, I akan cari kedai makan yang serve gulai tempoyak or sambal tempoyak. Malangnya most gulai tempoyak di masak dengan ikan patin, which I don't eat. Satu kali makan cukuplah until the next time.
