Family run turned family running errand

We actually signed up Leo Run 2014 to join a family friend who was eager for a family run event. I was the one who highlighted about the run and naturally they signed up quite immediately. Me on the other hand, not so eager to join...my kids are not into this..yet. Sorang suka bangun lambat, lagi sorang would rather sit in a stroller and not truly enjoy the run. Baby tak tau apa, angkut je. Lagipun yg tak eager sgt, sebab we start to join Kelas Asas Haji every Sunday morning or go to Pasar Tani.

Hubby checked with me several time whether I have registered ourselves. Few days before the closing date, we officially signed up. We started to brainwash the kids about the event hohohoho...haiya..kena lah kan. Bukannya senang nak hambat bebudak ni bangun pagi and bersiap.

Dua2 budak tu dah mcm happy to join the family run...tapi at the end, kakak tak nak join..nak tido lagi. Pfftt...as expected. 5 members, down to 4. Just before we walk out of the door, the friend texted us. Tak jadi pergi...haiya..Honestly, I kind of expected this to happen too because penarikan diri seperti ini pernah berlaku.

Dengan itu, kami menukarkan acara hari ini kepada acara membeli barang2 pasar. We've spent the whole school holidays at my mom's and peti ais lengang youuu. Baby, tinggal di rumah dgn bibik and so, 3 members left. Sekian.

Tricked the friend that we are about to flag-off with this photo. Sajjjjaaa nak bg member rasa guilty

All is not lost. At least, ada hasil

Tgh tunggu makcik kira harga sayur2

Renewed sense of hope

Double...err...actually triple dose of the renewal.
1. When listening to Press Conference by the PM around 2pm today about the new phase of SAR for MH370. No evidence that the plane crashed/ exploded/ disintegrated and that the plane had flown northwest of Peninsular Malaysia.
2. When IPU in Shah Alam is improving bit by bit. Honestly, it feels like watching stock indices. MWM finally announced that the race is on. YEEAAAHHAA
3. When it rains in Shah Alam walaupun hujannya macam sempuut gitu, tapi tetap bersyukur.

Keep praying for 2 and 3. Praying harder for 1.

Penang Vacation 2014 - Part 2

When hubby ran Penang Bridge International Marathon 2013 last year, his friend brought him to Puncak Mutiara Cafe, a restaurant in Kampung Pelet, Bukit Mertajam. He was so impressed with the place, he promised to bring us there. So we went lah. And I likee. Sebabnya....tempat makannya ala2 gazebo style and I chose gazebo yang boleh duduk bersila. Yey...boleh letak baby Umar baring atas pangkin gazebo tuh. Freedom to eat, tak payah nak kendong2, dukung2 (eeee...rimas ooo...tak enjoy makan).

Sorry ye, mama nak mamam

Nasi briyani is the specialty. Agak steep jugak la price. Rambang jugak la mata nak milih menu. I settled for nasi briyani kambing grill. Hubby chose nasi briyani paha kambing. Bibik chose briyani ayam kampung goreng kunyit. Budak2? Briyani ayam goreng + fries ngeheheh. Tak boleh order yang exotic2 sgt kat budak2 ni, kang tak makan.

Macam2 ada kat sini. Rabbit farm, ostrich farm, goat farm. Tapi kitaorg pegi tgk goat farm je. Like 50m away from the tempat makan.

 Macam2 species kambing ada. Quite a huge kandang, mak kambing, bapak kambing, anak kambing sumer ada. The kandang was clean and well-maintained. Bau je laaaa...itu tak dapat ditolong lah kan?

I'm sooo cute & adorable ya?

Apa tengok2 ?

Awat? Minat my shoe ka? Nak match kan dgn bulu awak ke?

Hayaa enjoyed it so much, she wanted to go there again sebab nak melawat kambing2 tu. Bapaknya, bagi chan, we stopped for a while on our way back to KL.

Boleh laaaa...next time datang lagi to try other menu.
