Happy Malaysia Day

I was doing a bit groceries early this morning and it appeared that the Jalur Gemilang Lego bits at Bangsar Village was completed in the nick of time.

Back at the apartment now and waiting for Syahril and his family to arrive. Will likely chill out the rest of the day, but would be on call tomorrow.

For those resting at home and enjoying the long weekend, Happy Malaysia Day!

Rambut Raya

It was just a couple of days before Raya and the boys still needed their haircut. Best to leave them until late so they won't grow back too long during the holidays. As usual, it was a quick drive to Bangsar Village to have a trim with Uncle Truno. And that included me.

All done within an hour, and everybody went home happy.

The Cookies are Back!

Anita's favourite cookies, LoveBakeCookies were back to Bangsar Village and yesterday, we didn't waste any time from picking a jar or four from the stall.

Truth be told, I was excited as well. The only problem was, they were not that cheap! There were some nice new flavours which Anita tried last night which turned out great. My personal favourite was the jam tart. They were not too sweat and I must say that the baker did not skim on the ingredients. The stock this year however was noticeably more expensive than last year. According to the staffs, the raw material was more expensive this time around. And there was also the GST.

It looked like we had to go there again before the end of Ramadhan to stock up. Last year, we left it too late and the variety which we wanted were already sold out. Hopefully that would not be the case this year.

Agonising Wait

After we were done with the Friday prayers, the area around Bangsar was a nightmare. Anita parked at Bangsar Village II and it took us almost half an hour to get the car out of the car park.

Good thing that I rarely do the prayers there. I was sure the fact that Selangor had a public holiday contributed to the jam. I can't imagine how it would be like in the center of KL ....

Wayang Kulit at Bangsar Village

It was Halloween. Saturday it was and I spent the afternoon with Anita looking for some snacks in the afternoon. I was on call a couple of days earlier and I thought that it was a good way to unwind. There were plenty of kids and their parents roaming around Bangsar VIllage, looking for chocolates. Our boys were just not into that, they would rather stay at home.

"Hulubalang Empayar"While Anita was doing some groceries, something caught my eyes. There was a small exhibition going on, and I thought what was on show was somewhat different. It was "wayang kulit" or shadow dance, but with a twist! It was about Star Wars rather than your typical old legend like what was usually told by those puppets.

It was a great initiative and it would run for another week. The one which caught my eyes were on Princess Leia and the Stormtroopers. Not much of a narrative I was afraid. Maybe there would be a session when they would do all that. But I still thought it was well worth a visit.

Obi Wan vs Vader"Tuan Puteri Leia"

Venue? Ground Floor Bangsar Village. But it would not last for too long though ....
