Statements I got generally from my relatives during last Hari Raya holidays :

“Ko Zaki kan? Akak dah tak kenal dah. Nak tegur takut salah orang.”
I don’t think I am that unrecognizable.

“Zaki! Ko dah kurus!”
Owh… don’t get too excited. Nothing interesting.

“Kurusnya Zaki...”
I thought I met you last two weeks?

“Zaki sekarang dah kurus.”
Expected.

“Sebenarnya akak dah nampak Zaki kurus. Malas nak cakap je...”
Then?

“Zaki, ko jangan la kurus lagi. Nanti cengkung sangat. Macam ni dah ok dah”
Thank you...

“Zaki dah makin hensem la!”
*blushing*

“Boleh minta tolong tak?”
Apa?
“Makan nasi!”
Loud of laugh!!!
*aku takkan lupe statement ko ni Haikal! LOL

I was so shocked that I could maintain my weight although I ate quite a lot during Raya. In order to avoid rice, I cooked. Because I know, if it's emalk who cook the meals, they are nothing but nasi campur, nasi goreng, nasi impit etc. Rice rice rice... Argh!

My plan to cook other-than-rice meals for relatives visiting my house did work! Thank you to mak and abah who subsidized me the whole things to cook. And most importantly they allowed me to cook!

I prepared Sheperd’s pie (thanks to her who gave me the recipe), fried vermicelli, spaghetti and fries omelet. People loved them because they were something new and most of them haven’t tried such meals previously. Also, not to mention I cooked well. Don’t take me wrong but that’s the fact. Hehe... One more thing, I think people are sick of rendang, nasi impit, kuah kacang, lemang etc. Come to my house people! I’ll prepare non-Malay foods. No no no... I mean next year. Hehe...
