A weekend for the homebody...

Aaaahhh... at last the weekend is finally here. Yeay!! Looking forward to spending quality time at home. Feeling a bit domesticated, heheh.

Ramadhan is less than 48 hours away, alhamdulillah. Many thanks to Him that we're able to experience yet another blessed month, insya'allah.

This weekend will be spent at home... getting self into the momentum of the holy month, insya'allah. Planning the menu for Ramadhan, shopping for foodstuff etc. Alhamdulillah, I've completed Raya shopping for the girls, so that's out of the way. Baju raya for me... no idea yet. Think will wear the green baju kurung I made for my nephew's wedding recently. Baru sekali pakai... ok lah tu. My mom pun bought the girls Japanese cotton material in green floral prints -- she had sent them to the tailor and dah siap dah pun... so that's baju raya for the first day. Settled.

Kuih raya... (hmmm... puasa belum start dah pikir pasal raya!! hehe). I will make kuih samperit, Maira & Daddy's favourite and of course, choc chip cookies. Four weekends left to slot that in!! The rest beli je kalau ada yang berkenan (my one and only fav is Intan Cookies' Melting Almonds)... we're not kuih raya fans anyways, plus my mom will have like 20 types of kuih raya at her house thanks to my brothers, cousins, friends and her anak2 angkat etc -- kalau sedap, I angkut la bawak balik rumah heheh...

Ok... gotta send the girls to Kumon now!!


P/S: Wishing all of you a blessed Ramadhan Al-Mubarak!! Mintak ampun and maaf ye, if anything I've expressed here in my blog had offended anyone...

Dear,

Ramadhan Al-mubarak!! Kaseh telah selamat melahirkan seorang puteri comel bernama Naili Umairah. Namun Allah SWT lebih menyayanginya, dia telah kembali ke rahmatullah pada usianya 10 hari. I want u to know that i am trying and praying to be strong dalam melalui ujianNya, just like u.

Selamat Menyambut Ramandan yang mulia. Semoga ketibaan bulan yang istimewa ini akan menambah rasa menguatkan kasih dan cinta kita kepada Allah SWT.

Kaseh,

My prayers are for you, dear...

Keep your faith to the Almighty for He tests those he loves. Don't worry about your 'lil angel for she is in a safe and better place now, much better than what the world has to offer... and she's waiting for you di pintu syurga...

Take care and have a blessed Ramadhan. I am here if you need someone to talk to, k?

Love & hugs

anonymous -- salam perkenalan to you too and welcome to my blog!! ;-)

Nasib baik masa you found my blog, none of my pathetically depressing posts were on top. Kalau tak, sure you dah cabut lari!! hehe

Yes dear, we are tested in different ways... but they are tests all the same from the Almighty who undeniably knows what's best for us. I redha...

What we can do now is to make the best of this world for a better life in the hereafter... mari kita sama2 doakan semua muslimin & muslimat all over the world for His blessings and guidance... ameen.

Selamat berpuasa to you too!!
