The confusion

Dis is d 1st time I'm actually blog'g in bed. smntara tgu mata ngntuk,mau post n3 le konon.. dgn hrpn jg, my bb will cooperate dis time arnd dan tidak buat hal bila nk post n3.. btw, my cnfusion revolves arnd 'cooking'. Apa kah yg dkatakn mmasak? No! Pls don't refer 2kamus dewan. I don't need d mean'g of it literally.

Frm my point of view, bila org tu dikatakan mmasak, dia siang apa ptut, pstu dia pgang senduk, pstu dia msuk kn bhn2, pstu dia rasa2, pstu dh sedap n dh ready dia hidang, pstu dia siap masak.. So, technically, I've never cooked since I got married! Sbb pe? Ok, here's why.. I've dis routine, bila dh siap siang2 n ready bhn, I'll arrange everythg accordingly. (Talk abt O.C.D!) Which 2go in 1st, dok plg dkt ngn kuali.. So bila tgh susun2 tu, apa tjd? Soulmate akn tcegat dgn senduk! Wlubgmna pn, dia xkn leburkn bhn2 tu dlm kuali. Klu nk tumis bwg pn, I've 2cmpak dlm kuali. Tp senduk dia yg punya! And he'll prctically do d cooking 4us! Yes! He did it with style.. Mmg suma kt aptmt ni ble dgr dia ketuk kuali! Huahuahua! Bt d thg is, if I ws not d 1 yg pgang snduk, feeling dat I did d cookg tu tak ada. Jdnye, bila soulmate mkn dan ckp 'sedap b masak' (wlupn ayat tu blm tntu sahih, mgkn dia nk amik hati), ssguhnya sy xde prsn! Sbb dlm kpla pkir, 'aku ke masak td?'.. Dan mula la dialog2 sengal menunding jari siapa tkg msk sbnrnye..

Ada pd satu ktika, I said, "soulmate, tmbh la lg.. Penat soulmate 'masak'.." Nk tau soulmate ckp pe? "Aik? B perli ke yang?" Pdhl I really meant it! Cz seriusly, mmg trsa cm soulmate le yg msak utk kami bdua psl senduk tu bkn I yg pegang.. Owh ye la.. Br tringt! Ptutla mak suka amik blk senduk kt tgn kite klu kite pgang time dia msak.. Mgkin dia pn rs tak feel la masak tp xpgang senduk.. Mak, org dh phm dh prsn mak skang!!

Tp scra jujur, I don't hv d intention 2stop soulmate frm departing frm his fav (and fab!) job in d kitchen! Its like hereditary ke pe? cz my FIL is also a fab cook (no, he doesn't just pegang senduk..). Wlupn soulmate xtlibat dlm mbanting tulang mnyediakn bhn, tp dia pgang senduk tu shows he wanna help. N I'm glad he did! Jd soulmate, if u read dis, pls take note; amik la senduk mana2 pn dlm umah ni yang! I support u! U r d best soulmate!! K, nk tdo.. Nite! Nite!

the time to reminisce about last year

ok, 2be honest, dis entry wont exactly b abt me reminiscing last year's event. Bt its somewht an attempt to do so. I ws trying 2post an entry ystrday, d 25th of April, bcz it ws my 1st year wedding anniversary. unfortunately, my bb wsnt in d mood of cooperating. hence, i had 2delay it till 2day, which i felt will defeat d purpose of me writing abt my so called anniversary cz its d day after. Anyway, so as 2please an annoyed pregnant woman, please read dis as if i wrote it on dat day itself..

today is my 1st year wedding anniversary (yeay!). i have 2admit, sometime ago whn dat female singer who-went-all-d-way-2royal-albert-hall-2hold-a-concert (u do knw who she is rite?) celebrated her 1st wedding anniversary, i ws a bit flabbergasted. i mean; hello? 1st year? cld u b more serious? some ppl lasts till like 40th year n more, n they dont even celebrate or publish it in d newspaper. i mean, wht did u try 2accomplish here? bt then, it ws my turn.. (no, i did not publish in d newspaper or have a mega-celebration). since soulmate received his bday pressie dat he loved so much frm urs truly; he kept on asking me wht 2get me 4our anniversary. (to wait till my bday will take so long, cz its nearly @d end of d year). bt i then decided, i dont want any pressie; save d money 4d baby.. tetapi.. bila tiba waktu ke anniversary yg semakin hmpir, mak buyung telah request perkara yg semakin kerap di-request olehnye.. which is : makan! yes, yes.. so dis entry wont exactly b about d anniversary saja, malahan tentang tembolok mak buyung yg smkin mjadi2 kehendaknya..

so, pd sehari sblm kejadian (anniversary) mak buyung telah mengajak soulmate mkn2 di restoran rebung chef ismail d bgsar. (occasionally, whn i hv i'tnl visitors, i'll take them there 4lunch, so they can get a taste of Malaysian delicacies. n its always been one of my favourite restaurants). tba2 telah mdpt idea jugak utk mkn bsama sefamily, krn mngenangkan, pd thn lps, sefamily itu telah disusahkan dlm perkara2 bkaitan wedding, mlhn smp ada di antara mereka yg jatuh sakit krn bhempas pulas smsa majlis kahwin tsebut. utk itu, satu arrangement telah dibuat utk bjumpa di rebung dan mkn2 shingga perut kembong (almaklum, its buffet dinner = eat all u can bebeh! reason yg ckup kuat buat mak buyung suka klu mkn situ). jd ini le sdikit gmbr2 dr bb, courtesy of my sis; awien n my twin; meme.

pic 1 : ni abah saya dan anak ksygn beliau.. anak kesayangan dia tu mmg wajar di bawa ke majlis2 berunsurkan buffet. cnfirm berbaloi sbb dia mmg seorang atlit mkn. saya pn dh mcm dia skang.. (gulp!)

pic 2 : bkn, org yg tinggi tu bkn tgh mengigau.. dia abg ipar saya yg 'terlebih sudah' nyanyi smp 3 lagu bila chef ismail ajak nyanyi skali. dia akhirnya turun dr pentas bila kembar saya; meme; soh turun.. hmpir2 kami tdo situ klu dia tak turun stage.

pic 3 : peminat setia penyanyi jemputan adlh yg pki bj pink smp naik atas kerusi tu.. nama dia yana tisya (bukan nama sebenar). mgkin, dia pn risau, abah dia tak turun2 pentas sejak mula menyanyi.. yg mngadap blackberry itu adlh pesakit pd tahun lalu krn sibuk bkerja wktu majlis kahwin (sakit apa tak ble bgtau.. tp bkn setakat skt pinggang) ehehe! thn ni, dia dpt mkn free.

Pic 4 : yg menjelir lidah ni kembar saya; meme (bukan nama sebenar). tak pasti knp dia buat aksi ni.. mgkin ada kaitan dgn lagu yg bkumandang. yg sblh dia tu adik saya lg sorg, yg suka amik gmbr diri sendiri dan post kt fb.. (ehehe!!) saya dan soulmate adlh sdg menjamu selera tanpa mhiraukan kamera..

oklah.. nk tulis panjang lg, tp terlambat la.. ni dh nk time blk (kantoi update blog time keja).. nk kena blk cepat.. dapur dh lama tak berasap (bukan kerana takde gas).. hr ni ada tanda2 pelik bhw dapur itu akan berfungsi spt sedia kala. insyaALLAH.. btw, next post akan mbawa bukti2 mengapa dapur tidak berasap.. ok, ta ti tu!
