Snippet from Facebook #1...

1- February 9, 2019. On this gorgeous Saturday morning after the ritual of feeding the cats, the fish and putting a plate of cut apples and bread into the bird feeder I sat down on my favourite chair and think of rearranging the little Serambi and give it a new looks. After doing it for a while I remember I am yet to have my breakfast so I stop and went to the kitchen, got a cup of Ensure and cold tea and head back to continue my work. After a few try here and there it beginning to take shapes. I then went to the kitchen again to check on the laundry and then to took a shower. Refreshed I decided to go for some Meehoon goreng, a leftover from yesterday, heat it in the Microwave oven and enjoy it at the Serambi....

2-I wanted to throw away this old chair all scratched by the cats Tam and Kenet. It their favourite chair to scratch their nails. While rearranging the Serambi I put it to one side. Then I saw both of them looking for it and went scratching. So now I am keeping it so that they could continue using. He He! Nasib baik Atuk tak buang lagi!.

3- A few years ago I met a retired officer who was working in the same ministry, on meeting me he handed his card and it show a Dr. before his name. Then later on I saw on TV one of my officer retired too written as a Dr. too. How on earth they both became Dr. After retirement since I knew all along their academic qualifications was only SPM. So how lah!

Have a nice day.

Halwa Maskat...

Sudah lama tidak merasai Halwa Maskat. Sangat sukar untuk dapat dibeli dipasaran pada masa ini. Puas dicari tetapi yang dapat tidaklah sesedap yang dibuat sendiri. Ini kerana bukan senang hendak membuatnya. Pertama hanya boleh dibuat dengan mengunakan Periok atau Belanga Tembaga. Belanga tredisi ini masih dibuat di Terengganu dan boleh dapat dibeli di Pasar Payang di Kuala Terengganu. Mengodel dan mengacawnya tampa berhenti mengambil masa tidak kurang dari tiga jam. Oleh itu hanya dengan menguna Belanga Tembaga yang tebal ini sajalah dapat menjamin juadah tredisi ini betul betul menjadi. Seminggu sudah NekNyang siapkan bahan bahan nya dan pada pagi Sabtu 7.11.20 ini bersama dengan anak dan cucu telah dapat dibuatnya. Alhamdulillah. Memang sedap. Recipe nya adalah turunmenurun dari Ayah saya yang membuat juadah ini sebagai makanan istimewa dihidang dan dijual direstaurannya di Kuantan pada setiap bulan Ramadan. Nasib baiklah isteri saya Asmah pada masa itu berumor dalam leng

The Sunrise at Teluk Cempedak...

We were in Kuantan for a short holiday. As usual I always take the time to watch the sunrise at Teluk Cempedak; a beach that I call my own. I grew up playing on that sandy beach from the age of seven years old and I felt in love with the sea. So going to that beach is a ritual that I never missed to do whenever I am in Kuantan. Early that Saturday morning of September 3, 2016 I woke early and with my nephew driving we left for the beach at around 6.30am. According to the data I had the sun would rise at Teluk Cempedak at 7.01am that morning. When we arrived at the beach there were already others there waiting for the sun to rise. I had brought my latest camera the Canon EOS M10 with me. It is a Mirrorless camera, the new new generation of the DSLR. It is much smaller than the DSLR and have interchangeable lens. As soon as I got there I walk along the beach and enjoy the freshness of the morning air. Yonder at the horizon I could see some light as the the sun makes it
