Our outing to the movie is cancelled due to few factors. One of them is that the elder boys ada ujian upcoming week. So, after I've done cooking, the boys were confined to their desk, completing their exercises with Aisya, yang sangat sibuk mengacau. Dah pandai menconteng anak dara saya ni tau!
Our mood was also dampened after we received news from my brother who's now in Colombo for work. He sent sms at 2am (local time) telling how scared he was that gunfires and bombings can be heard from the hotel he's staying. I'm scared too. After all, he's my one and only brother. Lagi menakutkan, none of my sms were replied. Tried calling him but failed. I'm worried about his safety. Hopefully he's safe. Tolong doakan untuk dia jugak, ok? As I'm typing this, a friend of mine is helping to check on his status and whereabouts.
As usual, weekends I'd cook if we dont go out. Hajat hati nak makan nasi daging mulanya. Tapi, since banyak agenda dengan anak2 today, I decided not to go to the wet market sebab nak start masak and finish cepat-cepat. Chicken and prawns are all that we have left in the fridge, so, I proceeded with Tom Yam which the children love so much. Tak lupa juga, ayam goreng. Simple kan, anak-anak saya? The hubs pun suka juga. Memang my children and hubby sangat into ayam goreng, cuma yang bosan, mak dia. So, sebab dah bosan ayam goreng version kunyit + garam, I moved to try other versions.
Today, I tried mixing the chicken with a bit of salt, half a small packet of chilli powder and half a packet of rempah kari daging. Not bad .. (perasan!) Yang penting the kids (and the hubs too) love it. Nanti I share you another simple version using honey, ye?
