Alhamdulillah, another day of puasa ganti completed. And hari ni, tekak orang puasa teringin sangat2 nak makan goreng pisang and goreng keledek :-). The only pisang yang ada kat rumah ni was pisang montel but since dah teringin sangat nak makan, I still used it. It turned out still rasa macam goreng pisang but lembik sikit lah (which was fine by me sebab I memang suka goreng pisang yang lembik2 ni, hehehe). Memang sakan lah I melantak goreng pisang and keledek tadi sampai tak larat nak makan dinner, hehehe. Nasib baik ada ‘Majlis bandaraya’ aka The Other Half kat rumah ni so he managed to eat my half of the dinner as well, hahaha…

Dah lama betul I tak makan goreng pisang n keledek ni, tu yang sakan makan tadi :-), tamak haloba sungguh! Miss 5 tengok I makan goreng keledek for buka puasa, dia terus join sama. Dia kata sedapnya goreng keledek n goreng pisang ni ye! :-).

Our dinner tonite, salami and pineapple pizza. I cuma larat makan sekeping aje tadi while The Other Half had 6 slices! He said he was so so hungry tonite, yeah right!

Lupa pulak nak cerita, it’s been raining mostly everyday here since last week and will continue to rain until next week rasanya. Masa musim hujan macam ni, our house usually looks like kedai dobi, clothes hanging on the clothes horses everywhere where there’s space. But tadi, I dah tak larat nak tengok our house bertukar jadi kedai dobi so I asked The Other Half to go to the laundromat to use their tumble driers to dry our washings. I pun bantai basuh 2 loads of washing petang tadi and sent The Other Half after dinner tadi to the laundromat. After only 30 minutes of the 2 loads of washing in the drier and $3 later, baju2 we all tersangat lah hangat nya and kering nya! And my heart pun terus lah rasa happynya and riang nya sebab tak payah fikir about wet clothes anymore! Problem solved, hehehehe. (Rumah we all takde drier tu yang kena pergi laundromat nak keringkan baju bila musim hujan ni. Tak berbaloi pulak rasanya nak beli drier which uses up loads of electricity just for a few months of wet weather in a year.)

(Why did I tell you guys the above story, God knows! Macam lah you all kisah kan about these things, hahahaha)

Alright, mari kita sambung kelas bahasa malam ni ye. To people yang bagi I peribahasa to find the equivalent nya in English, apasal lah you all bagi yang susah2 eh, naik botak kepala The Other Half memikirkan proverbs yang sesuai, wehehehe…. Takpe, we’ll persevere and one day, we’ll find the right proverbs for all of them :-). But for now, I’ll give yang senang2 aje lah dulu ye!

‘Masuk telinga kanan, keluar telinga kiri’ which has exactly the same proverb in English, ‘In at one ear and out at the other’.

Ayat contoh:

My kids think I nag too much but what irritates me is that I have to constantly remind them to clean up after they have played with their colouring pencils and crayons and papers. It seems like whatever I say to them will go ‘in at one ear and out at the other’. :-)

Hari ini, Cik Kiah merasa sangat geram dengan suaminya kerana dia terlupa tentang Hari Ulang Tahun Perkahwinan mereka walaupun Cik Kiah sudah sebelum itu acap kali mengingatkan suaminya tentang hari ulang tahun perkahwinan mereka yang bakal menjelma, memang betul2 ‘masuk telinga kanan, keluar telinga kiri’.
