Well, Hari Raya came and left and after all the shopping, cleaning and eating, I think I'm ready to get back to work (though I'm still on leave until Friday) and blog a post or two. :)
The first day of Raya was spent at my MIL's place, followed by my parents' home. We had an abundance of Raya food including the usual ketupat, chicken and beef rendang, lemang, sambal kacang, serunding and lots more. As usual, we ate and ate till we could not eat another bite and I ended up bringing home some of the food to be served for a late brunch the following day.

Raya goodies for my non-Muslim blog friends who might have missed out on these Raya delights, enjoy!
Baby Issy caught with her hand in the cookie jar!
Having spent the First Day of Raya at my MIL's home and my parents', we decided to have a small intimate dinner last weekend for baby Issy who'll be leaving us soon. But first, we needed to do some major spring cleaning as our home was in no condition to be expecting guests, seeing that it was in a mess!
Naturally, we turned to IKEA for some shopping, and B and I spent the whole afternoon there. I brought along my credit card of course and only started worrying about the damage after we got home! No point in worrying about how much we spent while busy shopping, that would just take the fun out of shopping right? Speaking of credit cards, some of my friends have been complaining to me about having their credit card applications rejected so now, you can actually check out dsiSolutions to find out more on credit repair, credit dispute and ways to improve credit score. Hopefully, you'll get better luck in your next application and you too can happily go on a shopping spree like me LOL!
Shopping spree!
Anyway, by the time we came home, we were too exhausted to do any decorating or cleaning, so that was saved for the next day, which saw both of us furiously dusting, mopping, decorating and vacuuming for the big day. I think we did an excellent job too because the first thing my mom said when she entered our home was that everything looked so clean since her last visit so YAY!
We were already sick of eating Raya food, so B and I decided to serve a normal but nonetheless delicious menu for dinner. Sweet n sour prawns, shrimp egg Fu Yong, fried asparagus with belacan (shrimp paste) and black pepper chicken. Our menu was a hit if we do say so ourselves and we enjoyed watching our guests devoured every last bit of food served.
Baby Issy was a curious George alright! She crawled around everywhere, exploring every corner and anything that was in her path. It was so entertaining to see her antics and I snapped as many pictures as I could.
I even managed to get B to entertain us with his piano skills! Usually, I gotta wait for him to be in the mood to play a tune or two for yours truly but since it was my mom who made a special request for him to play the piano, B couldn't possibly refuse and happily provided the entertainment for the night. Thanks love! :)
All in all, it was a terrific Raya and though we had an exhausting week, we enjoyed every bit of it. Once again, I'd like to wish a Happy Hari Raya to all our friends and I hope your Raya was just as wonderful as ours! :)

which reminds me ..I had better start spring cleaning my place as I have guests coming for lunch on Friday...eek
enjoy your days off and have lots of fun with your adorable niece :)
GP!! Thanks for sharing your Raya moments with us. I can see that baby Issy is the center of attraction...and rightly so because she is adorable!! Looks like you had a nice time and so did the family. It was a good idea to cook something a little different too...after a while everyone is tired of the usual stuff...no matter how good it tastes!
And thanks for the Raya spread for us too! Sure looks yummy...
Cheers!
Ha ha ha Kim!!!! That's my sister (Issy's mom) with baby Issy on the red bedspread, and on behalf of them, thank you very much! But the last pic is me with baby Issy! ;)
Oh thanks for noticing my spic and span place, we worked so hard to get everything ready and by the time our guests left, B and I were dead tired and slept like logs! :)
Now it's your turn to do some cleaning, good luck! :):):)
YAY, thanks GK! I hope u enjoyed the raya spread here, everything was yummy but after 2 days of Raya goodies, enough oredi! Everyone loved our dinner menu too so that was great.
Baby Issy was the center of attraction, she's too cute to resist! Oh and I love her outfit here as well, just wanna pinch her cheeks and hug her all day! :):):)
Hola Marzie! Thanks for the lovely photos! Seeing the cutie Baby Issy and her super cute smile brings sunshine to rather gloomy my morning. She is so adorable, if I mesti I cry when she goes back to UK.

My Hari Raya was all hectic with hustle and bustle. Even at one point, there were more than 50 visitors came to our house. It's like having a open house without really knowing it. Huh. I am glad though they came, it just that since our maid already finished her contract and went back home, we are out of staft. Thank God everyone seems to understand about it and lend their helping hands :)

Hola NAFA!! So happy you guys made it to GP's open blog ha ha! Makan banyak-banyak okay and hope the food is yummy enough lol!
Oh yeah, baby Issy was so excited to see my kitties, she couldn't get enough of them esp Phoebe cause she's the smallest. I think Issy was afraid of Benji though cause he's so big ha ha!
I hope u guys are enjoying ur Raya break too, I'm back to work on Monday! :):):)
He he, that's right Emila! Go Emila Go! :)
Is it Nick? She looks the same to me, not much bigger than when she first got back, but maybe cause I see her more often than you kan?
Hey, there...the lemang, rendang etc u see here, all that's for my blog buddies la! I made sure to take pics so can serve you esp lol! :):):)

Hi LJ, ye la working slow and steady here to maintain my spot. Now Rizal pulak nak 3rd spot, so I kena kejar dia. :):)
Hehe..love you too, GP! :):) Thanks for letting us chat here. :):)
Btw, the red dress mmg pretty on baby Issy! I don't think I'll every pull off a chilli red dress like that! Great taste, GP! :)
Oh ya, what's everyone's fave Raya cookies anyway? I LOVES kuih makmur yg bulat2 mcm snow balls tu. :)
GP, I didn't know RED is your favourite colour. I always thought you're more into pink! Hehe..ahchooo!! Sorry am allergic to pink. :P
Debbie, my 'spam' food is halal one; cap Ayam tu!
debbie, i suka pineapple tarts! yummy!
tapi i suka jugak rempeyek and maruku!

Emila, I suka pineapple tarts jugak. My mom salu buat jenis yg gulung tu. Pastu letak bnyk2 jam, yummy!
I suka rempeyek jugak. Ada org panggil dia tempeyek, mana2 la kan? Hehe asalkan benda yg sama, bnyk2 kacang and ikan bilis..slurps!
Emila, ada ke spam food yg halal cap "ayam"? Tak penah nampak la..
Rizal dah potong i dah, takleh jadi. Dulu ingatkan nak leisure2 jer mengomen kat sini..skrg dah ada pesaing yg nak spot number 3, rasa bersemangat pulak! Hehehe..
Such adorable photos! I especially love the one of the hand in the cookie jar. It makes me wish my little girl was still that small.

I'm really impressed that our busy marzie could come out with such scrumptious meal and of coz I am proud. You're a good cook too, after all! :)
Debbie, spam cap ayam tu ada kat sini je...tempat lain takde!
Ya Debbie, I pun suka yang banyak jam! Yummy!

You and Emila could be borderline stalkers. :-)
Oh wait...I guess the same could be said about me lately.
I went from like top 100 commenters to the top 5 in about a week (maybe less than that).
I promise...I am NOT a stalker. ;)
Grandy.. all of us are stalker..lol.. Maurica's stalker....hehehe..
Alright...but if we must be stalkers, please know it's stalking in a good way Marzie.
