The fun ends, the memories begin!

Braving the mosquitoes and chilly night air
- for the fishing interest of Ashraf! 

Sya, Naj and Yours Truly
The final minutes before we bid goodbye to the beach!

The tree has specially grown in a slanting way
- for Yours Truly to take a breather! 
We definitely had a rejuvenating weekend. That prepares Yours Truly for what the next week may bring! :-)

Sunshine, wind and harmless company!

"A one million dollar view!" according to Zul!

Ashraf and yours truly, in each others' arms

Zul, Nan, Yours truly, Naj and Sya
 A group foto with the ever pleasant Mr Zul!
Who is that lady that made Naj so shy!
In summary, the beach outing was just awesome! ;-)

The dinner

Yours truly
 Waited for the speeches to finish. HM delivered quite a good speech about how your shoes took "efforts" to get used to your feet so that the shoes will be loved by you! ;-)
Naj has got a fish!
 And he is a happy boy!
Naj and Sya enjoying their dinner

Ashraf  having a great time with grilled fish and
hot and spicy sauce with oranges!
 
Yours truly had a great time enjoying all the great company and great food! This was heavenly!

Lending her presence


Front: Yours truly, Zaleha
Back: Hj Sahar, Hajjah Sahanim
She is lending her presence to the students who were attending the motivational talk prior to sitting their UPSR exam end of this year. And she is glad she could do that!

Beach-ing out!

The ever inviting sea!

Yours truly and a woman in pink

Yours truly in semi serious talk with En. Ismail

Rows of gorgeous kayaks ready to be taken!
She spent the weekend having too much sun than her skin could afford! She hopes that the skin will not revolt too badly. But the company and the hospitality of everyone else is simply great! The food was simply great!

Glorious food?

 Do not remember what sushi are these, but they were oishi! But she wished that the Japanese chef did not mould the wasabi by hand! So geli man! :-)
 Some soba in clear water soup. Not bad a choice for weight watcher! It was so clear that even the lighting was reflected in the soup!
 Vegetable fritters. The equivalent to cekodok sayur! Yummy!
 Chicken chop. Nothing spectacular. Normal bolognese or bolognese flavored sauce from the bottle or can and countable chips!
Over priced for normal food like this! ;-(
 Another peasant food. She couldnt understand why the chef was so stingy with the chips. Fish was less than fresh. Could have been better, but the her boy ate them all, happily! ;-)
Coffee was great and such a rescuer to these less than great dinner! Should have known what not to order next visit, if any!

The humble Malay traditional dessert - Bingka Ubi

The humble "Bingka Ubi"

Two humble Bingka Ubi(s) ready for collection!
She still bakes this traditional Malay dessert but upon requests. And this time's requests came from Mdm Safiah of PBB, PR and her new customer, Hj Yahya of Air Hitam.

She hopes that is "hangus"/burnt enough as specifically requested by Hj Yahya! According to him, the burnt portion is his favourite! She cant understand her customers at times. But she tried to adhere to her customers' request, no matter how peculiar it could be!

Mdm Safiah and Hj Yahya, thank you for your support and enjoy the Bingka!
