~~Half way of Ramadhan~~

Believe it or not we are at a half way of Ramadhan now. Alhamdulillah, I still manage to perform this ibadah with a good health and tawaduk. Talking about Ramadhan, apart from the ibadah and tarawikh, it's a month where people been blessed with foods, I mean a variety + lotsaaa of foods here and there, especially in my home country (owh, how I wish I were there right now, miss going to Pasar Ramadhan, I miss going tarawikh with my dad at a mosque, I miss 'more', I miss preparing foods with my mom for iftar, I miss everything about Ramadhan back home, sob..sob...). And sometimes, I feel like buying the whole Pasar Ramadhan if I go there, hih, yeah I know..... it's just a 'bad strong desire'. It is like a norm, people crave more in this month, hihi, including me. Unfortunately, living in a country where less than 15% of the community are practicing Islam, I dont have many choices of foods, or in other words, it's just a waste of time for me to crave this and that, knowing that I wont get it here, unless u prepare the dish by urself, hehe.

Well people, I'm staying alone now, in a shoe box, hihi, I mean in a small studio unit, somewhere in inner suburb of Melbourne. Like it or not, there's nobody else to cook. I really2 crave 'kuih pau' since last 2 weeks, huhu... and it took me for quite a while to prepare it. I think I made it, eventhough the taste is only.... so - so.... (^-^), and luckily I didnt burn down the house, hih. So, today....I had quite simple menu for iftar - Blue Pau, meehoon tomyam and dessert (actually I'm very2 lazy to cook, huhu, hence I only prepared these unfiddly menus). Alhamdullilah, He is still bless me with a good 'rezqi', it's more than enough for me, I'm alone afterall, so no need for a round table of foods (^-^). It's just a bit sad that I got nobody to accompany me for iftar.. really... I feel sad and lonely. Ok, Ok... no more tears for today..... lets have a look.. what I had for iftar tonight.... enjoy!

'Blue Pau', I intentionally added few drops of food coloring into the doh to create a temptation for me to eat, hihi

'White Meehoon Tomyam', took only 20 minutes to prepare, I chucked everything in the sauce, heh..

Simple but yummy dessert, fresh strawberries + yogurt + raisin....
