SALAM AIDIL FITRI 2009

Salam to all and here's wishing you and your family Selamat Hari Raya. Maaf Zahir dan Batin dari kami sekeluarga. For the first time this year, I did not make it home but Alhamdulillah we had a wonderful raya with our fellow countrymen and friends. The anticipation for raya was exhilarating for me as so many things to prepare for the big day, trying my best to make it feel like we are at home. Managed to prepare mix menu of Malay & Indian specialities for Eid.

We had Putu Mayam and Lamb Curry for breakfast followed by Nasi Impit, Rendang, Kuah Kacang, Sayur Lodeh, Nasi Tomato, Ayam Masak Merah, Jelatah Nenas/Timun, Acar Buah, Lemang, Ketupat Palas and Serunding Daging for the guests later.

After Eid Prayers at the Embassy, we had our breakfast and had a family photo session. At 12.00 pm my first guest show up at the door and it was celebration then on. Indeed, we had a nice Raya although being away from our beloved family at home.

To all that came...thank you for coming to our house and you guys make our raya here so meriah. Domo arigato gozaimashita!!
