The Homeless...

The happening was yesterday. In the morning I went to Ampang Point to get some grocery and later went to have Roti Canai and Teh Tarek at a Mamak Restaurant that I frequent. While there I was told by the friendly cashier that  a young girl had been seen sleeping at the outdoor rest area nearby provided by the local council for food truck to served their customers.  And that he had given free food to her. Since he knew I help the needy who come here he suggest that I see that girl. I went and just say a few words to her. She look decent, a Malay teenager probably left her home after SPM. I did not want to probe further at this juncture and instead told her to 'Jaga diri'. After seeing her had some food I then discussed with the cashier and left. According to my friend the cashier he notice she had been there for some times already. Well in the city of KL and it's suburbs it quite normal to see homeless around. In and around KL there are many NGOs providing services to the homeless. Among it are the Kedai Jalanan and the  Dapur Jalanan at Jalan Panggong in Kl.  In this case I would try  to help, one step a time. I always believes in helping and not to ask too many questions. My way is Just help! and forget about it. I made up my mind to help her. Let see how it goes, In Sya Allah.

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
