Oleh kerana nak siap in advance for today, last nite, aku sapu and mop lantai malam2 buta. Then aku siap2 marinate the chicken, letak dalam freezer. Lepas siap keje, aku tengok movie Inception with hubby. That movie aku download from the internet using unifi, which took me only about 45 minutes! Weeeeeeeeeee... aku happy!! hehe.. Pastu hari ni, pagi2 lagi aku dah keluar breakfast with hubby and the kids, rumah bersih, kemas untuk ketibaan tetamu. Lepas breakfast, aku gi pasar tani with hubby. He wanted to buy betik, and I bought pisang lemak manis. Balik from pasar tani, Azli dah tunggu with Doritos for Amy and me. Yay! best giler dapat makan Doritos!! Thx Azli!!
Masuk je rumah, terus aku basuh baju, jemur baju and lipat baju. Since my guests are expected at 3pm, so aku plan to start cooking at 1pm. I cooked nasi kebuli sebab tu je la yang paling senang untuk aku yang maidless ni. Letih weh kalau nak masak beria2, pastu nak kena kemas dapur before guests sampai lagi, then kena kemas rumah lepas guests balik pulak. Takyah susah2, sakit kepala.. just masak yang simple je. I managed to finish cooking at 3pm. Zana was the 1st to arrived at 3.30pm. Pastu June and As sampai. Then Nora, Anne and Roger. At about 4.30pm, Azel and Camie pulak arrived. Last sekali sampai Lily.. huhuhu.. dah ler dia bawak salad for nasi kebuli tu. Orang lain semua dah kekenyangan by the time salad sampai. Nora made delicious Apple Cake. Lepas ni kena mintak recipe dengan nora :D
Kita orang duduk, lepak2, minum kopi, then some dah terpaksa balik, mcm Zana, June and As. Ingatkan Normi dah tak sampai, alih2 at almost 6pm, Normi arrived with Abu and their kids. Riuh rendah kejap rumah. Alhamdulillah nasik and lauk tu cukup utk guests yang more than 20 termasuk children. It was a great get together. InsyaAllah, lepas ni, boleh la jumpa lagi. Alhamdulillah, all went well. As I'm typing this, rumah dah bersih, cuma tinggal nak sapu and mop je esok :)
...aahhh, akak yang penat with your activities! Hehe! Actually, I've been there, you know, done that too! (somehow writing this seems cliche kan? Anyway, histories are cliche!). But it's the happiness of doing that that counts, right?
ReplyDeleteThese days, I've mellowed and I'm trying to slow things down. Hahaha!
Savour the moments with friends while you can. :)
Oh yes, Shidah...lupa nak bitaw...
ReplyDeleteYour friends Wan, Za and Lily tu... haha, are combinations of my name in full!
I'm 'Wan' to my kawan2 biasa.
'Lili' to almost everybody, esp. close ones... and...
'Za' to my darling hubby! :))
K.Lili,
ReplyDeletepenat kan baca list of things that I did this week? I pun rasa penat. The truth is, when I was in my late 20's and early 30's, I hardly went out with friends, takde mood nak berkawan. Bila dah makin hampir to 40, tiba2 rasa seronok pulak nak berkawan. Thus my routine (masa makcik ton ada), keluar for a drink malam2 with close friends. Selalunya keluar for 1-3 hours, just to de-stress. :)
so, kiranya, since I call you k.lili, i'm one of ur close ones la kan? hehehe... za sounds very feminine. wan is very general. lili is sweet :D
