Something to share.......

The guy in the picture is my older brother. Since my dad passing, this brother is the one who sort of 'looking' after us the rest of the siblings. I had not seen him and his family for so long, i had dream about him a few weeks ago. Been wanting to go for a visit since, but i only managed to see him and family in Bkt Beruntung last Sunday. I was shocked to see that he had lost so much weight. He is having problem with a back ache from a slip disc. I almost cried when i saw him, didn't know that i missed him that much.
When we reached the house, my sisters from Kg Pandan were already there with my niece and her 3 daughters, the youngest is only 4 months old. I was very glad i made this trip. While sitting down quitely at the passenger side on the way home in the evening, my mind went to one day in the 70s, just before my late dad was transferred back to Kuala Lumpur from Kota Bharu. I was maybe 10 years old and this brother of mine maybe in form 1, he came home after maghrib after playing soccer. He was laughing when he entered the house and whammmm...he got a loud spanking from my dad for being home late. I may not agree with my dad's way of disciplining us when we were kids, but now when i saw young boys and girls loitering around shopping complexes, or at the side of the road at night or late evenings, i just wonder if parents nowadays are so lack in making sure the kids' safety. I maybe wrong, but with so many children being raped, kidnapped and others, maybe my dad's way was right after all....

Enough of a very serious topic, before the trip to Bkt Beruntung on Sunday, this cute cuppies set was send to someone near Senawang on Thursday.
This white with red hearts topping on 1kg butter cake, was collected infront of KTM station on Friday.




The green decorated cupcakes and plain ones in plastic were send to Chabau in Melaka on Saturday. I made a huge mistake on this order and i hope i could make it up to the person soon. Please accept my sincere apology. I am going to discountinue accepting large order for this plastic casing at its very difficult to handle. Lastly, this set was delivered to Tampin on Saturday night. Green seems to be the popular theme color this time.

Your cakes are lovely, Zai. And the story about your brother is so touching. I pun dulu selalu kena pukul dengan mak I kalau lambat balik rumah. Budak2 sekarang, mana ada kena macam tu dah...

I echo Mdm Busybody and MrsN...memang touching the story about your brother tu. Yeah, sometimes, we just don't realize how much we actually miss certain people, especially those close to us and those we often take for granted of!

Punyalah look forward to your sending the cake to my negeri...dah mark calendar dah...last2 tak dapat jumpa jugak...

BB, Mrs.N and Ms. Hart,

Not meant to be sentimental abt my brother tuh actually, i was just thinking about those young kids yg loiter around outside their houses at very odd hours...so teringat how we got spanked or kena pukul dulu2 kalau lambat sampai rumah....and yes kids nowadays mana ada kena pukul kan??

and mr.hart...tu tak der jodoh lagi tanda nyer...maybe kalau MTT gi Melaka bole kot tumpang sekaki he he....
