Happy Eid Ul Adha 2014

Last Sunday, we had an Eid Ul Adha Celebration at home. Eid Ul Adha is a feast that is celebrated during the Haj season, in the month of Zulhijjah. In this month, we are required to sample and to value the sacrifice that Prophet Ibrahim a.s had over his son, Ismail. It is during this period of time, that we, as Muslims should show gratitude and understanding of how great the sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim was.

Last Eid Ul Fitri, we did not get to cook as much as we had wanted. Therefore, this time, we took the time to cook whatever dishes that we normally have during eid. Besides cakes and sweets, we had pressed rice with peanut gravy, glutinious rice with beef rendang, nasi minyak with chicken kurma, dalca and ayam masak merah. 

No biscuits this time except for some pineapple tarts that disappeared within hours. 

Admit it, this year's celebration was a bit sombre as relatives took the holiday to go for a vacation. 

We? As traditional as it may seems, just stay at home and watch tv.

Well, life goes on. :)
