One Word




So the word for New York City is ACHIEVE,
...for Stockholm is CONFORM, says Liz Gilbert

Someone tried to describe me today.
The person came up with just one word, UNPREDICTABLE.

I'm not surprised.

Coz the word I describe myself is CAPRICIOUS.
No, I'm not proud of being capricious.

Yes, I do not know



...and it may happen that ye hate a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that ye love a thing which is bad for you. Allah knoweth, ye know not.
(Al Baqarah: 216)

Please, help me find out which one is good and which one is bad.
I need clues.

pause to reflect




Malam ni dah malam ke -15.
Miskin sungguh Ramadhan saya kali ini. Sibuk dunia yang lebih.
Terasa hinanya diri...



Semoga malam-malam separuh kedua bulanmu lebih bermakna
Tempatkan aku dalam redha & rahmatMu
Aminnn...

Daya ria

Today's desserts:



This is what happened when one break her own azam. Tak nak pegi bazar Ramadhan kononnya...

I bought a pack of nasi briyani at a bazar Ramadhan and had it at iftar  (ni pasal ada orang tiba2 sebut pasal nasi briyani kat saya!). Everything seems to be ok when I ate it but close to midnight there was a turbulence in my tummy that I had to curl up in pain like udang goreng and later followed by a medley of toilet visit and throwing up at the sink. I took short naps between my toilet trips, and by sahur time, I was just to tired to eat, so I just took H0rlicks & loads of plain water. That too only get to stay in the tummy for mere minutes before they got expelled into the sink. Oh, have you ever vomited through your nose too? Urghhh...nasty, I tell you!

Ramadhan Mubarak

sunset at Chenang

Ramadhan is here again.

My 'Ramadhan account' is not looking good so far. It's already day 4 but I have not even completed the second juzuk. Must.do.better.

At a 'majlis sambutan Ramadhan' recently I was asked, 'asyik puasa sorang aje, bila lagi nak puasa berdua?'. No, siapa kata I puasa sorang, all these while bukan ke I puasa sama-sama dengan umat Islam seluruh dunia? Ramai tu kan...

Azam Ramadhan tahun ini, kurangkan makan diluar, kurangkan beli makanan siap. Masak sendiri ya.


Hasil tangan untuk masuk perut hari ini, grilled lamb with honey & rosemary to go with mushroom, potato & boiled veggies.



Selamat berpuasa!
