Zarra's Birthday Celebrations

Dear Diary,

Last Saturday which was Zarra’s birthday was a hectic day, at least for me. It was tiring; a day full of programs from morning until night. First thing in the morning, we went to Darul Ehsan Medical Center (DEMC) for Irfan’s five months check-up. My baby got a jab on his thigh. He cried a little but was shushed down by his kind pediatrician Dr Roliza.

Next, off to 1 Mont Kiara for Zarra’s birthday lunch. The story was I booked her cake at Sinfully Chocolate using a voucher that I bought online through mydeal.com.my. Click here for an entry about this restaurant. Long story short, we had a wonderful lunch there, just a small family lunch with my brother tagging along. Zarra was looking forward to celebrating her birthday since the night before. Blowing candles and cutting cake were the highlights of the day for her. That’s what all that matter in her young mind. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to look around 1 Mont Kiara because we were running a little late.

We rushed back to my in laws’ house in Shah Alam and got ready for the night’s function. I was ready in just half an hour, so pardon my appearance. Then, we were on the car again heading towards The Royale Chulan Kuala Lumpur for a wedding. Since it was just Hubby, my brother and me without the kids, I could relax and take my own sweet time savoring the food.

The directions we took today were Ampang – Shah Alam – Mont Kiara – Shah Alam – Kuala Lumpur – Shah Alam. Phew! If our car can talk, it sure lodges a complaint against us for making it going up and down the highway.

The next morning, my mother in law asked bibik to prepare a special breakfast for Zarra’s birthday. Bibik cooked nasi lemak and fried mee. The foods were simple everyday dishes but were properly thought and nicely presented.
