Ramadhan day 1: Chilling wind but fair

It is windy now in Brisbane. I am practically shivering while typing this. But the sun is bright. What a wonderful day to start fasting today. Soon the winter will leave and the blooming season will come and visit us, for the last time.

Today is our first day of Ramadhan. Alhamdullillah, almost half of the day has pass by. Yaya is doing OK. I woke her up for sahur at 4.30am. Fasting started at 5.00 (5 minutes before Fajr). Alhamdullillah she didn't give any trouble waking up and having sahur. We had rice. Dah biasa makan nasi for sahur. We don't mind breaking fast with anything else, but for sahur, we must have nasi, otherwise by half of the day, perut pun mula berbunyi. Hopefully Yaya able to fast the whole day today. Luckily she has no school today. The school is close because of Ekka, kinda agricultural and industrial exhibition held annually in Brisbane. Macam ekspo pertanian kat Malaysia tu. But tomorrow the school opens, I wonder how she will be tomorrow.

OK, nie citer pasal adik pulak. Adik nie kan susah nak cerai puting, tapi semenjak dua menjak nie, dia terlupa sikit akan best bud dia. Wah...ini petanda baik. Tapi semua nie berlaku ada sebabnya tau..... Tengok exhibit 1 dan 2 di bawah.

Puting yang rompong

Iyeeee, itu la sebab utama adik mula reject puting nie...yang telah rompong tu. Macam kena gigit tikus. Itu pun dia masih nak hisap jugak. Nak beli baru, tak nak den, kang ntah bila dia nak let go. Gigi pun dah mula terjungkit ke depan. Kite tengok sampai bila adik nak hisap puting dia nie, sama ada adik yang reject dulu, atau puting tu memang dah tak boleh di selamatkan lagi.

OK for those who are wondering about abah (eh ada ke?) hehhehe... mmmm... starting Monday abah will undergo radiation therapy for 10 days, 2 days break in between. From the recent CT scan, the cancer has spread to the spleen and liver. It is about time for abah to start chemo, but most probably after raya. Sedih la jugak, tapi ini semua ketentuan Allah. Den pasrah. I only hope I have the chance to look after abah, hope nothing bad will happen with us still here. OK...tak nak fikir negative. Kita bertawakkal pada Allah.

So what to cook for iftar ya. I already took out chicken breast from the freezer, maybe chicken padprik and telur dadar. And will fry some of the frozen karipap I made last weekend.

Karipap frozen (tapi sebelum di frozen kan)

Ok, I still have 2 hours left to work on the chapter, until the iftar preparation. Breaking-fast time today is at 5.25pm. Until tomorrow, selamat berbuka, biar sederhana.

yours truly,
