Selamat hari raya to my children who are overseas. I miss you all I say, with my mouth full of lemang.
As usual, we trooped to Kampung Juasseh 2 days before raya. (It has to be 2 coz that's all we can stand). The day before raya was filled with heavy cooking. Of course everything was kuning - ayam kuning, daging kuning, ikan kuning. This year Zed wanted to 'mengacau dodol' so they did. I was in charge of the soto - having been anointed by the sifu herself (Mak Jo).
On hari raya we stuffed ourselves silly after the prayers. After handing out the angpaus, came the obligatory picture taking session. There were four generations of the clan immortalized in print. Then its time to pack our bags and head off to Penang.
We also spent 2 nigths in Penang. Here, everything was curry or its variation, but with more exotic meats - there's itik nila etc. We did the usual rounds with the Tanjung Bungah folks and also other friends at Jalan Edgecumbe.
Selamat Hari Raya everyone
