It rained. In the morning.
And, the weather remained cloudy ALL day.
It was good because I had to go on a walking tour of Little India, Brickfields at 10:00am!
Yes, it’s Ramadhan, but ‘someone’ didn’t bother to consider that little tiny detail and so it was trudging-the-streets-in-absolute-thirst we go….
But, as I said, it rained in the morning, and weather was cloudy and not too hot so it turned out to be quite acceptable and not too punishing :p
No pics from the walk, though, as I coudn’t really be bothered to trudge around with the “darn thing” hanging of my neck :p
We got back to the office around noon, and I had to run an errand at the bank.
Having settled that, it was back to work, and at 4.30pm, I clocked out (I leave at 4.30pm during Ramadhan). Road was haywire and topsy-turvy with traffic as usual, but I wasn’t driving so it wasn’t too stressful.
Oh yes, Ramadhan month I carpool with a neighbour who’s also a colleague.
Anyway, got home around 5.45pm, then settled what I had to ~ Asar prayers, connect the internet, etc. ~ then headed to the kitchen.
murtabak from the bazaar, sirap selasis, asam rebus ikan kembung, baby kailan with egg tofu and condiments 🙂
It was past 6.45pm by the time hubby got back and I thought her was stuck in traffic.
I was ‘almost’ correct.
He’d stopped by the bazaar to look for murtabak for me, but the line was REALLY long. Suddenlt he saw the usual man selling the roti canai near our place calling and waving at him. Turned out, it was his murtabak stall 🙂
The poor guy was swamped with orders he wasn;t able to cope with. And so hubby stepped him and helped man the stove while the seller kept making the murtabak. Finally, for all his ‘hard work’ hubby’s order of 3 pieces became 5! The seller was very thankful for the help!!! LOL
And so the balance of the murtabak will be our sahur tomorrow 🙂 Alhamdulillah….
Dinner was very simple, yet satisfying.
…with sirap selasih to wash everything down 😀 😀 😀
Cheers!
