Malam tadi The Other Half skyped ibubapa dia bertanya khabar berita. Dan saya pun menyuruh The Other Half tanya ibubapa dia apa yang mereka tak boleh makan, benda2 yang boleh menyebabkan mereka tak lena tidur. Dan seperti yang dijangkakan, mereka pun berkata, “ Takde apa2, kami makan segala nya!” ( obviously, not in Malay lah kan, terkejut badak I kalau tetiba diaorang cakap Melayu. Kalau diaorang boleh cakap Melayu macam tu, kenalah I tulis my blog in Italian or Spanish ke, hehehe. ) Selepas mereka beritahu yang mereka telan segala benda, kami berdua pun terus lah tersenyum sinis. Nak tergelak pun ada sebenarnya :-).

Tapi, saya ingin berfikiran terbuka dan positif terhadap ibubapa mertua saya bila mereka berkata begitu. Jadi saya pun berkata pada diri sendiri yang tujuan mereka berkata begitu mungkin sebab mereka tidak mahu menyusahkan hidup menantu kesayangan mereka ni. Mereka tidak mahu saya bersusah payah menyediakan makanan khas yang berlainan untuk mereka. Mereka tidak mahu saya bertungkus lumus di dapur memasak :-). Jadi mereka akan menelan sahaja segala benda yang saya masak walaupun mereka tahu yang tidur mereka akan terganggu di sebabkan makanan yang saya masak. Alangkah murninya hati mereka kan :-). ( Think positive, think positive, think positive, think positive ). Hehehehehehehehe……….

Tamat dah pelajaran Bahasa Malaysia malam ni ye Tuan2 dan Puan2 ye, hehehe. Macam mana lah I nak tulis novel cinta Melayu ni ye kalau tulis 2 paragraphs pun sikit nya susah. Maybe I can start from writing cerpen first before writing a 300-page Malay novel ;-).

Hari ni Miss 5 was still off school so melepak lagilah Mummy at home. But Alhamdulillah, her cough’s getting better and she hasn’t thrown up any of her food so far. But we might still keep her at home esok and just send her to school on Friday. I would rather keep her at home until she’s 80% better before sending her to school. Her class teacher pun tadi told me yang about half of Miss 5’s class was at home sick since a week ago. It’s the season for sniffles and coughs now, tu yang ramai tak pergi sekolah. And on top of that, there’s chicken pox going around at that school as well. But both of The Little Misses have been vaccinated for chicken pox so we are not worried. Macam2 lah kat sekolah tu, hehehe….

And since I was at home again today, I terlebih rajin pulak hari ni. I made kaya bread. The dough recipe I guna dough bun kentang by Ros kat Jepun tu yg memang femes dgn roti2 nya. Tapi biasalah kan, I menderhaka a bit, I tambah tepung lagi and then I tambah bread improver. Then sebab malas nak masak kastad, I just swirled kaya on top of it. Miss 10 makan sampai 3 ketul sekali gus, pastu makan lagi 2 ketul after dinner tadi. Miss 5 pakkal aje sebab tak sihat badan, makan seketul aje, kalau tak, sure nya dah I kena buat another batch malam ni jugak, hehehe…

Then for dinner I made cottage pie. Basically cottage pie ni sama lah macam shepherd’s pie but cottage pie uses beef mince while shepherd’s pie pulaknya uses lamb mince. But both are topped with mashed potatoes. Dah lama sangat2 I tak buat cottage pie ni, bila sejuk2 ni best lah makan macam ni :-).

I know gambar dia kurang menarik sikit lah but dah senduk baru teringat nak ambil gambar, wehehehe….
