Family gathering during iftar...

This is like a new tradition for us... on the first Saturday of each Ramadhan.. we invited family members from both sides for berbuka puasa gathering. And as usual.. the must-have-menu is my mother's 'roti jala' + kari ayam. Giler penat menebar jala!! :D Imagine.. we started at 12.30pm... pukul 4+ baru habis menjala!! :D And the smell... my god... menguji iman puasa ku... hahaha!
Anyway, it was fun! As usual, my parents-in-law came first at around 4.30pm bringing some dadih epal and lauk daging berempah.. my favourite! Yummy!! :)
Hubby forgot to buy ice-cream soda.. so I had to rush to Grand Union at around 5pm to get a few bottles plus some more additional things with Izzaty and Zamri tagging along. To our surprise, we met Na there... of all places!! She was searching for laksa rupanya... (coz she's bringing Laksa Johor.. her signature dish!). Unfortunately Saadan could not make it this year... demam... kesiannnn.... rugi la Saadan takde... :P
Later, DikMa and family came... followed by Along and family who brought kuih lopez (especially made by our own Bang Long!! So impressed lah!! hehe). Angah and family reached later with 3 boxes of Ayamas... more yum! yum!
Then when the iftar time was very near... baru la nampak bayang si Ruby and family (sesat rupanya diorang ni... tsk tsk!). So makan time!! The kids were so excited berbuka with so many food to choose... So meriah! So fun!! :)
Hamzah and family only came when we were doing solat Maghrib berjemaah at our living hall with Bang Long as our imam. SO cute to see Izzat, Daniel and Adam solat bersama... :) Not to forget Sara, Danisyah and Izzaty... :D Sejuk hati mak agaknya tenguk everyone datang berbuka with her...


Sibuk menjamu selera... (In the pic : Angah, Zaimi, BangLong, Along, May, Hatta and DikMa (in white tudung sebelah Angah).


My big nephews - Farhan & Ashraf prefered to eat at the garden with their MakTeh Na and Auntie May.

The gals - Sara, Izzaty & Danisyah had a special mini table... :) Sorry la girls.. .tak cukup tempat... hehe..

What do you want to drink for iftar? Punch (in the big tumbler!), Tea, Warm Soya? All were ready at this area - Wan Chik, Along, May (again? She seemed to be every where!!) and my mom in law borak2 after buka posa...

Hamzah and Co. arrived just when we started the Maghrib jemaah prayer...




The kids had fun with cousins.


The 3 gals... as usual had FUN!



All ready to go home.... don't forget to tapau for sahur ya!
