Cempedak Luar Pagar

My late father loves jack fruit. There is a small plot of land opposite his house on which he planted a few trees. One of them was a jack fruit and for the last few years it had been yielding some fruits.

Not bad actually. And fresh from the tree, my Mum would fry it. I went to visit Mum last Sunday and we had exactly that. Good stuff actually. Yum yum!

New Year Day Activities

I decided to stay low this year as Anita was occupied with her Dad who is still in the hospital. He was just waiting for his tests to come back and hopefully he would be discharged tomorrow.

Not much fire on the works ....By the bed ...Started the day as usual later than usual. I was watching the fireworks last night after watching the two Trainspotting movies. Unfortunately we couldn't see much from the balcony. The looked lower on the horizon compared to before. I could only hear the sound and see a few of the taller ones.

I went for an early lunch in town after the ward round before joining Anita at UMMC to pick her up after she brought lunch for her Dad.

Morning round The afternoon was rather dull ...The rest of the afternoon was pretty slow though with the full weather. I ended up doing some paperworks and sorting out the website for the upcoming MSH meeting before again joining Anita for dinner. A night in tonight watching football. Can't guarantee if I would be awake when United kicks off after midnight later. Have a clinic tomorrow.

The New Desk

Following Ba’s passing, we decided to convert my old study room into a guess room. We didn’t have one before and with both Idlan and Irfan growing up fast, they deserve their own space and rooms. The extra room which I had been using had to go.

We bought a new bed and off one toy huge table we bought from Ikea a few years back. So, for the past 4 months, I didn’t’t have my own dedicated space to put my stuffs or do my work. Getting a nice work table at reasonable price was not easy. I went through few options but for one reason or another, none of them were taken up.

Finally a few weeks ago I plumped for one. It just got delivered today. It was at a nice height and width and it fit perfectly into our bedroom. I reassembled my Mac Pro - minus a second screen unfortunately - and so far it had been great. The view - straight through the window up the hill was not too bad either ...

I would still need to get myself a table lamp since the screens were a bit too bright to work at night. I could feel the strain after 20 minutes in front of the computer. The rest of the evening were spent updating the software and upgrading to High Sierra.

School Opening Soon

Another week to go before the boys were to school. Since last weekend, Anita had been busy getting their stuff ready. That meant many trips to the shops, dragging them grumpy boys. As for Idlan, most of his stuffs were from last year, needing some cleaning. Irfan on the other hand would be entering a new school. Plenty of things we needed to get for him.

The new iPadGrumpy boys waiting for their Uber ride ...Irfan also needed a new iPad for school, and we bought that last week as well.

We were getting them to go to bed early from this week, trying to get them to rise early. We had failed so far! Another week to go before the morning dramas continue ...

Sunday Scones

After buying the ingredients and browsing through many YouTube videos, Anita finally decided to take the plunge! She decided to make some scones!

For my Sunday morning breakfast.

It turned out superb and filled me up before heading out for my morning rounds .... It won’t be complete without the whipped cream and preserves. To top things out, she brought out the old China we had for England just to complete the ambiance ... Happy Sunday morning all then ...
