independence day.

we're lucky to live in such a friendly neighbourhood. we were invited to a small celebration of various games and feasts last august 17th. and it lasted for two days, woo-hoo! i never really enjoyed the independence games up until then, even yuara seemed to agree - he won third place out of three contestants :D

the last picture was taken by our neighbour, muhammad fadhli. anyway to break the fast, i made two of my signature dishes: bread butter pudding and sauteed shrimp with butter sauce (minus the pasta, that was our late dinner). at first, i wasn't very optimistic to cook during fasting time, but i think they turned out quite okay. since the recipes were quite simple, i won't bore you with the details.

so what are you craving for today? me, i simply want my mother's cooking. any kind will do. selamat berbuka puasa!
