Buka Puasa/ the breaking of my fasting day part 7

Birthday cake 
My lil cousin 
Usually, I would either break my fast at home with my mum's cooking or at one of my grandparent's house but tonight is a special event in which it is my cousin, Iryna's birthday and the fact that my cousins and aunty are going back tomorrow makes it an event to a must go. I haven't met them for 2 years until they came back 3 weeks ago, the time just swooshed by and just like that, they're going back to Houston tomorrow. Well, what can I say, I will truly  miss them. My day was spent as usual with playing Fifa 12 and with an addition of doing some chores like buy groceries and stuff. Other than that, it's just a normal day at Casa De Shazwan . On another topic, I am watching The Dark Knight Rises this weekend, I shall write a review about it after I watch it. Yesterday for breaking my fast I had Laksam (kelantanese dish) and there was also Nasi Dagang and KFC. It was just a small party only for family. Well, we all said our goodbyes and kissed goodbye before we left the house. It felt like just a while ago, they were back home and now, they're gone. Well, that summed up my day. Cheers :)

Buka puasa part 5 mummy's cooking

Soto ayam

roast chicken 

Big Apple doughnuts
Well, it was just another day of puasa, I thought I would do the exact same thing I did yesterday but my mum invited me to go to KLCC to go shopping. Well, as a person who likes shopping who wouldn't agree? We went there, and my mum wanted to go to Chanel and one thing lead to another, we ended up at isetan to buy some sweet food like doughnuts and stuff like that. After that we head back for like 10 minutes and then we had to pick up my brothers which I had to endure the heat of waiting outside for my brother as my mum parked far away. Then came buka puasa time where I had soto ayam, one of my favourite dishes. I eat it really spicy filled with cili padi. I am a person who loves spicy food like sambal. After buka puasa, we went to the mosque to perform our terawih which then, I was really, really sleepy. I was very patient. Well, that concludes my day yesterday :) Cheers

Buka puasa part 3 mummy's cooking :)

Indonesian Cooking
Sambal daging

Ketam masak lemak

fried tempe 

salted egg

krispy kreme doughnut

Ayam goreng bumbu

sayur asam

So, on the first day of buka puasa at home, my mum made Indonesian food which is also one of my favourite food thus making me hungrier waiting for the food when I  was fasting. The whole day all I did was play fifa, use my computer and read the Al-Quran. I couldn't do much as I was at home all day and this may be my routine for the rest of the fasting month unless I go out or something. Anyways, the food was spectacular, I was the last one off the table as I was enjoying every second biting and chewing the delicious food. If you haven't tried any of these dishes, you' re missing out on a lot of delicious stuff. Try it out sometime. Cheers :)

Buka puasa Grandma's cooking part 2

kuih keria 

fried chicken and kerabu 

sambal ikan, lemang and serunding 

murtabak, fried chicken and keria
The second day of puasa, I went to bangi which is the home of my grandparents on my mother's side. Well, when I reached there, I rested for a while and went straight to the ramadhan bazaar which sold many delicious food but we only bought a few like murtabak and tebu. But the most important thing we searched for was the keropok lekor noba. It has been a while since we had it so we searched for it at the bazaar but it was not there, we also searched at the mall near by but it was also not there. Our hopes crushed like a broken window. Well, on the bright side, I met my granddad's adopted son. He was cool. We chatted before buka puasa. When the time came, all of us filled our mouths with grandma's cooking. We were bloated after about 15 minutes. Lastly, we had out terawih prayers and I became the imam for the night. I was quite nervous though as it was my first time being an imam to the family but I think I did well. At the end of the day we all went back home to Bukit Damansara. Cheers :)

Well, every year my grandma makes the best ever dishes for buka puasa and this year it was no different. My all time favourite food from my grandma is her roti john and popiah. You would never taste any better than that. She makes those food with magic hands because like it's so delicious. She made nasi lemak (coconut rice)yesterday served with chicken rendang, sambal sotong and sambal ikan bilis. I just love to buka puasa at my grandma's house. Everything you eat that she cooks is just sensational! Cheers :)
