From the garden to the kitchen
















This morning, sempat YM with Farihah, one of my ‘adik’ at BTB. We still keep in touch with each other even though I‘m a pensioner. Yup! Still remember the sweet memories kat office with adik-adik 3 As: Aishah, Azimah and Azura. Ingat tak? Bila stress aje, sanctuary kita di LT. We had a good lunch and talk and, hey presto! Everything goes back to controllable mode.

My latest ‘hobby’ now is gardening depan rumah. Sekangkang kera je. For a start, I baru tanam lada merah, cili api, daun kesom and a potted herbs (oregano, parsley and spearmints). It’s really enjoyable, especially bila tenguk cili tu dah berbuah. Tapi tak pernah petik sampai cilinya kecut. Sampai my DH pun dah faham, bila dia tanya aje, akak akan jawab nak buat benih...

My daily routine, every morning watering my plants and talk to them especially my roses (dah mati tapi tunggu kudup baru berbunga). This is considered as substitute for exercise. Nak jogging, a bit lazy at the moment.

Tonight my DH told me, he don't feel like eating rice. Sebenarnya I dah siap marinate lamb pun for dinner dari tengahari. Lagi senang. The way to a man's heart is through his stomach, they say.

Tonight’s menu: lambchops with chips, broccoli and parsley (tanam sendiri), desert: risole.
