Idul Fitri mood starts

The fire that cook the lemang
Jeruk on display
Yummy village manggo (mangga kampung)

To kick start the Idul Fitri mood, we went back to Cik Ngoh's house in Dungun last weekend. As the ritual has been, we'll do a stop over at Kijal to "borong" Lemang Kijal from Kak Ngah & Kak Nab.

Favourite Lemang Stall - rich and soft lemang always and not to mention MUROH SOKMO. For the many years, the price for even the most "fat" lemang never exceed RM2.50. This year the price range from RM3.00 to RM1.50 per piece. Not that bad comparing to Shah Alam prices and not mention the "exclusive" Lemang Kijal taste.

The LittleWans shopping and posing in front of the Lemang stalls.
Baju Raya Mr and Mrs Brown. Dah siap ! My kebaya material is so the very soft, viscose cotton. I have to remember the name of the fabric for next round of shopping kain.

This year Baju Raya - Ayahanda's and mine - are ready much earlier than the LittleWans. I picked up Ayahanda's baju melayu from the tailor the weekend before the start of Ramadhan. The tailor rate nearly choke me but after looking at the finished product and also the promptness, I think it's worth the money. 3-4 years ago we had this nightmare when baju melayu Ayahanda was not ready until 30 min before we left for KT. What make it worse was that the tailor make us go to his shop 3X before we got to pick up the suit. Tensionnnn nye. Tobat dah tak gi semule ke dia tu.Earlier today I pick up my kebaya raya from Wati. Punya le excited nak raya . Suprise suprise my baju kebaya tailoring cost is 10% of Ayahanda's tailoring cost, which is the same rate that Wati (my tailor) has been charging me for the last 5 years. Apparently, Wati has made a number of new customer, some of them are from my referral.
