a lesson delivered


I was in the midst of cooking this afternoon when the gas ran dry. Phew..the concoction of dried fish,cili and bananas should make my curry to die for..

Hmmm... tak kan nak berhenti tgh kari ataih dapuq .I said to myself and an idea struck my mind.
Dapuq letrik kan ada.
Since the rice was already cooked while I was prepping the dish, I took out the pot of rice.Transferred the half cooked banana curry into an old rice pot. Alas the pot was not the right size for the electric cooker. Transferred it yet into another pot and this time around it fix although not perfectly.

At last the curry was cooked and I proceeded to fry the already seasoned fish. Nilagilah... with the other rice pot .it seems to take ages for the fish to cook.

Alhamdulilah cikli could have his lunch this afternoon.

Searching for gas delivery in Perlis ,I met with a few numbers to call and whatsapp.
As this was Friday,the numbers I rang went un anaswered.
Luckily I hace towkay Ah Seng to the rescue.
One hour later,uncle was heaving the heavy cylinder across the yard into the house.

Jauh hooo...susah mau datang was his usual comment. I paid him and ask him to keep the change. Sikit pula rasanya. I should gave him more.

Seeing my husband ,dear uncle sat down on the chair and struck a conversation with cikli about their ailments. Uncle pun sakit mcm cikli juga. Tapi dia in control

Sepuloh biji laicee,ketuk2 bungkus dgn kain dan rebus ambil air ..was his suggestion .Kemudian minum. Cubalah . He suggested.

Mujuk kakak sihat ,he then said to whih cikli replied
Kakak pun sakit juga. HBP...

Macam dia tahu saja. Kakak jangan pikir banyak .Itu yang jadi sakit. Apa jadi sekarang , terima. Sembahyang banyak2. Doa banyak. Pikir banyak2 pun bukan selesai masaalah. In which I replied my worries are plenty. My children included.

Anak dah besar2. Biar depalah...Akak fikir banyak2 buat apa..

This afternoon I was delivered a lesson in life management by my towkay hantar gas which I cant thank enough..

Thanks uncle... a lesson delivered.
