#101 - (HolidayThrowback) Hong Kong & Macau

Ever since I was a little kid, my late father always brought us for a family holiday. Though it was only within Malaysia but it was fun nonetheless. Ar least I can brag that I've visited all 13 states in Malaysia. Have you?

Our favourite place would be Penang. So, it is no brainer why we keep going back to Penang every year.

Because of this annual tradition instilled by my late father, I developed interest in traveling. My ultimate place to be is no doubt is Mekah. That is another no brainer. Another place that I must visit before I die is Italy. But, Italy has to wait a lil bit longer. En. Suami and I plan to visit all the cities in Italy. Insya Allah.

My first oversea trip (using my own personal passport not group passport) was to Hong Kong and Macau. It was kind of impromptu holiday since Hong Kong was never in our plan. We went to The Victoria Peak, Raffles Bay, Stanley Market and Disneyland. And in Macau, we went to Senado Square, Ruins of St. Paul's and The Venetian.

We enjoyed the trip so much because we planned the itinerary ourselves without any help from any tour agent. 

Will I revisit Hong Kong? Oh yeah. This time around I want to stay at Disneyland Hotel. Still not too old for Disneyland and Disney princesses!

Till then :)

#100 - Ramadhan 1434

28th Ramadhan.

How time flies. I could wish of so many things right now but as this moment I wish Ramadhan never leaves me. I misses a lot terawikh, didn't quite done with my Quran reading. I am truly disappointed with myself.

I am so jealous of my friends who are able to perform terawikh as much as they can and even woke up for Qiyam.

I could give so many reasons but I don't think anything could justify my lack of commitment in performing my Ibadah this time around.

Ya Allah, give me the opportunity to experience and embrace Ramadhan again, Ya Allah.

Ameen.

To my readers, Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Maaf zahir batin. Do take the opportunity during this festive season to visit your relatives (near and far) and especially the elders. 

#99 - Nutella Mug Cake

Assalamualaikum.

So my husband invited some of his cousins to come over last weekend for iftar. Initially we wanted to have our iftar outside but since one of them just had a baby , we decided to have it at home.

Being such an undomestic goddess, of course I opted for take-away. Like, I'm struggling to cook for 4 people, you can't expect me to cook for 10 people. We ordered 4 chicken mandy and salad from Saba' Restaurant and lamb vindaloo from Mughal Restaurant.

As for dessert, I decided to try something new. I made Nutella Mug Cake. Have it with vanilla ice cream. Oh sedapnya.

Everyone loves it and the most important thing, En. Suami loves it too. Makes everything worth it!
