Our Hari Raya Weekends

For the last 3 years when Siti, our helper, was with us, Hari Raya is a BIG Affair for the family. We will usually bring her out for a good lunch during this special day and she will dressed up pretty in the Baju Kurung that we bought for her...sweet memory.


This is the 1st year we DID NOT celebrated Hari Raya. On Saturday, i cooked a simple meal of prawn noodle soup for lunch. While the children were napping, i took a nice & relaxed swim by the pool nearby. I like Public pool on a public holiday - no crowd and plus it was drizzling.. : P

Dinner was with our extended family at a new discovered Teochew restaurant - Mong Hin Teochew Restaurant. Nice home cooked spread with a bottle o good white wine. I told adrian that ever since i married his family, i have been eating a lot of TEOCHEW cuisines..hehe. One fine day must learn to cook some speciality.


Aunty SK recently tour Hokkaido and she shared with us some goodies from Hokkaido. I brought some for my extended families to sample. My parents in law will be going for their Hokkaido tour in December. They can help to buy back nice goodies stuff.



Today Adrian is back to work, so i am home alone with the 2 children. In the morning, we had breakfast at the market place and then brought them to the playground for them to sweat it out. The children had a good nap in the afternoon.In the evening, we had Macdonald's for dinner.


Today i missed the opportunity to do an assignment for an event company because of Adrian's work. What a pity. I have always enjoyed doing this kind of major event during my days in the Travel Industry. Even after i left the industry, my closed friend will still invite me to join her on ad hoc basic.

Hokkaido!!! I wanted to go to Hokkaido so much! not only because it's an extremely beautiful place, it's also because it's the hometown of Aya from "Coins from Heaven"(星之金货). i fell in love with jap drama after watching coins from heaven...
