Baju kurung merah - lawa anak beranak pakai sepasang. Makanan pun banyak, apa lagi makan2 aja lah, nak keluar cuaca sejuk. I sekarang simpan kobis/carrot/coriander leaves all the time. Kalau lapar2 buat bakwan aja. I fried them with very little oil. Not deep fried. I made some when MIL and Ernie came, Ernie said he can finish the whole plate. Memang betul..I pun boleh kasi habis satu pinggan!!

Sayang betul Sarina dengan atuk dia and Sarah looked really sweet. But where's your picture? You kena beli baju kurung lebih2 when you balik kampung!

Oh my, i admire the table setting so pretty !anyway i was thinking of making epok epok sardines for tomorrow gathering..but m not sure if they will be able to tahan pedas and now tengah rasa malas plus penat, almost nak terbaring baring at the kitchen.

And i was going to make hummus and kebab but decided against it, since i doubt i will have the energy to make my flatbreads as well! So far , I have already prepared baked ravioli, nasi briyani gravy for layering tomorrow and berry parfaits for dessert. For finger foods m planning to use up my saltines, confirm hantam style ! LOL

ni dah bagus...u introduced epok2 and bakwan to org2 kansas... sib baik u tak kasi dorang gigit cili padi dgn bakwan, that's how orang kat indonesia makan bakwan. :)

baju kurong tu sungguh menawan..mana your pic..ingatkan nak tengok tiga beranak bergaya :D

Happy new year, hijrah and masehi together to all at home :))

Salams kak rosma..

looks like the colour of your the baju kurung you girls wore fit in with the theme too...and lately wearing red is beginning to interest me..just that I am not sure at all if I can take it well..hehe

Sounds like you guys had a ball of a time at the in laws with the food and all ...esp when they can taste your cooking and experience a different cultural food experience during the holidays....it must be really nice.

Your bakwan..must be a hit..hehe hope you are well rested from your trip and may you all have a great start to the year ...
