Ramadhan So Far

How has your Ramadhan gone so far? Mine has been hectic as usual. Macam tak puasa. MEMANG TAK POSA PUN!! Hahaha..ok not funny…I now have a minimum of 6 days to replace. Urghh…must get that out of the way ASAP.

Last Saturday, because of you-know-who is no longer around, hubby decided to take us all to the Pasar Ramdhan to buy food. We got mee goreng for the girls (fail!) and some roti john for myself (I give 2.5 marks out of 5). Hubby bought some ikan percik and sayur pucuk ubi, which cost bloody RM8. RM8 for a small fish and vege!! Pucuk ubi lak tu!! Huh…

Because Pasar Ramadhan was such a bust, on Sunday I decided to cook. However, I had a group discussion at the Uni around 430pm so before I went, I prepared all the stuff to cook and then headed out. The discussion took longer than I expected (grrrr…) so I drove like mad getting back home. Tengok2, hubby pi beli lauk lak. Cet!! So in the end, i just made my special eggs (benedict…NOT!) and sawi in oyster sauce.

Mee Bandung Success

Today was yet another tired day at the office. Add to the fact that we all didn't wake up for sahur, the office was freezing. REALLY FREEZING!! I felt my veins shrinking. Is that possible? Tomorrow I'm bring socks. And maybe my gloves if I can find them. How hard is it to type with gloves on your hands? It's the raining season, for crying out loud, do they really have to put the aircon on full blast?!! Grrr...

Today I cooked for our break fast. I COOKED!! Hah, that's been a while. Yet another miracle during this holy month. Since hubby and I had promised each other not to visit the Pasar Ramadhan, I decided to check the trusty mesra.net website for recipes.

It's not that I don't like cooking, it's just that I don't like having to think about what to cook.

After browsing for a few minutes, I decided today I would cook Mee Bandung. Yummy!!
I knew the kids would love it because they love any kind of mee. I called home to ask Enon to defrost the chicken and bought the rest of the stuff at the grocery store on the way home.

Since both Enon and I were first timers at cooking mee bandung from scratch, we followed the recipe closely. Since we were both fasting, we couldn't really taste the soup until it was time to break fast.

And it was delicious!! If I must say so myself. [smug look]. Even hubby (who was kind of sceptical when I told him I was going to cook for break fast) loved it. Yeah for me!!
