D'Residence renovation updates:-

OUTDOORS

Kebelakangan ni, bz supervising the finishing touches of the Gazebo outside the Dining Area.















The Gazebo is 95% ready except for the flooring.







By end of this week, boleh pegi 'shopping' beli anak-anak ikan for the fish pond which is surrounding the entire Gazebo. Nak kena pegi Plants Nursery jugak untuk cari 'water plants' yang sesuai untuk decorate water fountains.

After the management did some tree/bush clearings, view of the Penang Bridge is more prominent. I like !












Sambil bz dengan hal rumah, bz jugak melayan relatives from Saudi, Majidi & Mariam sekeluarga yang datang ber-holiday ke Malaysia. Semalam buat jamuan berbuka puasa to honour them. Penuhlah seisi rumah dengan keluarga from Faiz's side ramai-ramai menjamu selera.

Food we catered from Shahbi. Menu was Briyani Kambing, Dalca Sayur, Ayam Basamah, Ikan Goreng, Acar. Cakes were from Secret Recipe. Kita kat rumah cuma sediakan buah betik dan Air Buah Tembikai buat berbuka puasa.

Wah! Kecoh jugak bila 25-30 orang makan serentak macam tu. I panicked when we ran out of Watermelon Juice. Hah! Sudah! Maka berpeluh-peluhlah si hostess dok mem-blender jus tembikai tambahan di dapur. Aduh!! Hilang glamour aku! (tak sempat cari tissue dah, tudung pun boleh dibuat lap peluh!).

I thank my blessings for the fast and efficient help from my darling Yasmin, Nabila and Ari, who were bz replenishing food, serving cakes and clearing plates and glasses. Kalau sorang-sorang nak buat, mau berterabur tulang-tulang cheq !

By 10.30pm, guests were ready to go home. We ordered extra portions of food so that all the guests could take home food for sahur. The food packing were done by Yasmin and Ari. Finally... had a chance to sit down and chat with the guests for a change.

Lepas tu, as requested, we all went for a quick drive to my new house. They'll be going back to KL on Monday and subsequently fly back to Jeddah on Saturday, insyaAllah.
