30 Ramadhan 1427H - chronicles of a preggy lady on leave (part 2)
23 10 2006so i’ve managed to accomplish what i planned
- prepare kuah kacang ala mama’s recipe (1st attempt at preparing it all by myself - about time… since amir’s crazy about kuah kacang and ketupat)
- prepare ketupat (of course the instant kind - sri nona or whatchamacallit)
- bake another batch of honey cornflakes (i see this as a fast moving item during raya later)
- do all outstanding laundry
- change the draperies (not new ones, mind you - this set was the one mama papa ordered when i got hitched)
- packed items to bring to in-laws
list of outstanding tasks
- bake another batch of chocolate chip cookies (yet another fast moving item - all due not to the potential guests - more to inhouse cookie monsters)
- iron family raya outfit (wondering whether the main raya baju kurung i made for raya still fits - we’ll know tomorrow)
- pack for potential overnite @ atuk’s in tg malim on 2nd syawal
- get me that chocolate milkshake that mcd’s s’wangsa didn’t have
it’s all so quite over here as the masses has left the residential area - when woke up for sahor this morn - the whole row of houses behind ours was dark. raya morning will see the street clear of cars that are normally parked haphazardly - your normal middle-class township sight.
so here’s to the last day of ramadhan - may it end with us achieving to lose not only kilos but also gain in spiritual enlightenment (chewahh!!~ cam real je)Â
selamat hari raya & maaf zahir batin!
chewwah!! very der domesticated gitu!!
anyway, slamat hari raya, ly-d and hope ur pregnancy and labor nanti smooth yer!!
Selamat Hari Raya!!
u r one macho preggie lady!!:D
dura: maciiihh… on sunday nite, i actually dreamt i delivered @ my mom’s childhood home… with all my aunties around me … subconsciously takmo masuk balik keje sampai mimpi nak deliver ekekek
nina: muahahah… i guess this is what the pregnancy books describe as ‘nesting instinct’… some soon-to-be mommies would start pottering around the house - mcm those birds preparing a nest for their offspring.. when preggy with kya takde plak rasa rajin camtu…
