let's start from the end shall we :)


the welcoming bowl of chocolates, whish the girls so thoroughly enjoyed :) took this picture on our last day there :)

lately macam hart cakap..no mojo gitu..hahaha. i guess we're still trying to get back into the groove after a week's vacation kan..and then sean said that he is not feeling to great. hope he is not getting the cold. my arm is still bothering me..but what else is new haha! i think the winter blues has set in :) i am eating errmm..more? when i should be eating less . so much for my diet..hahahah! it seems like we're going on another road trip this weekend. this time to Iowa. to attend a funeral. sean nyer nenek sedara who was 80+ passed away last week. but get this..she will be buried this saturday. imagine how long the body is kept just so ppl could come and view..hmmm. but, i guess that is their way lah eh.


i was putting away my phone and cords when i saw kak za feeding the animals in the barn and here she's feeding the chicken and ducks. i was in the dining room when i took this.

well..last day at westport, was sedih sehhh..as usual..it started slow and suddenly the frantic packing ensues. first it was trying to clean the car..maklumlah, the girls sitting in the back, thrashed it like nobody's business and then wiping the windows of the car, anticipating the snow that was predicted in connecticut and pen. but before that, of course, we had to go and have our last meal together..hehe. we went to back eddy. before going to this place, sean and i voted fanizzi's at Ptown to be the best restaurant ever. but after going to back eddy...clearly we now know which is the better restaurant. the fish and chips that i had was so light and yummy. really...and sean said that his scallops was perfect.



whenever we ate at a restaurant there, i told myself..i am not going to order fish and chips..time to order something else..and what do i to each time..order fish and chips and this is by far the best i've tasted ever!

and then it was time to say goodbye..sedih jugak..sebak jugak dada ni kan..but have to maintain eh..tak mo melalak depan the girls..sarah was already yelling goodbyes from her car seat and sarina was going in and out saying her goodbyes and then it came time for the adults to part ways. now when shakespeare said ' parting is such sweet sorrow'..he had to be on crack..no parting is sweet, unless the person whom you're saying goodbye to, lives near you..hahaha!



the blue shelled eggs from lotus farm :)


anyway, to kak za and john, our thanks and gratitude for opening your house yet again to the four of us. having to put up with the incessant chatter from the girls and my constant ermm...not so quiet reinforcements to my daughters..hahaha!

to kak nor also, it was so good to meet you. and thank you also for having us over at your place. it was nice to meet your mom and her friend. :)

to both of you thank you for extending the warm hospitality :) *hugs*

to you both, insyallah, kalau ada jodoh and rezeki we'll definitely meet up again in MA :) as usual, more pics here :)

Wheeee Kissesssss!! I likey! :D But somehow when I served them on Hari Raya, very few ppl ate them. I bought 6 bags, I still have 4 bags left. Sedih seh. But hey, more for me!! hahahaa!!

Hope u enjoy the trip to Iowa too, altho I know the purpose is not to bersuka-suka, ber ria-ria... One week is standard lah for mereka-mereka. My friend's dad mayat lagi lama. One month +!!! My friends yang lain2 who knows this friend was also surprised at the lengthy wake.

Have a safe trip and back!! :)

Cepat jugak you sampai Kansas. Ini mesti Sean drive laju. Alhamdulillah you and family selamat pergi balik.
Hope Sean gets his much needed rest today. Stay in bed. Lots of fluid and no chocolates!
