Some things are just too good to be true that you can't believe it's happening right infront of your eyes!!! Last Sunday, we went to KLIA to meet up with Naseem and family who flew in from Penang after a 3 days holidays there. I was so excited plus nervous plus impatient and everything, combined into one. It's like meeting your heart throb!! *wink* The moment I saw Zahra, Naseem's elderest daughter emerged from the Arrival Hall followed by the rest of the family members, I am pretty sure I wasn't dreaming that time. Until we hugged, a long hug, then only I am 100% sure I am not dreaming! Had to pinch myself in order to confirm it!

How can I not be excited. Thought I would never see them again because Malaysia and Malawi is very far. And for us to go there again, it's like almost impossible. Unless, somebody is willing to sponsor the whole family just for the air tickets, we will be more than happy!!! Anybody???? It had been two years since we left Malawi behind with loads of wonderful memories treasured deep in our hearts. And two years I had been without my close friends there whom are now just like my brothers and sisters. And to be able to meet at least one of them is such a blessing. But I got to meet the whole family. Syukur alhamdulillah......

We met up with them, just for a short 15 minutes as the hotel bus was waiting for them. But 15 minutes is better than never. Maybe hubby saw that it wasn't enough for me, he told Ishmael (Naseem's hubby) that we'll visit them at their hotel tomorrow. So yesterday, after hubby's niece and hubby left, we went to where Naseem and family are staying. Had a long chat (was it long mummy? Ummmm... I think 2 hours is nothing huh? We still have loads to talk about, things to catch up with huh?) and we left their hotel at 11.30 pm. That was because, we saw that they are tired after the KLCC tour and had to wake up early the next morning to get ready for Sunway Lagoon. Anyway, it was lovely meeting all of you again. InsyaAllah we'll try to meet up with you guys at least one more time at the airport. Oooooo I just dread that moment....wish it doesn't have to happen.... meanwhile, enjoy your time here and bring back lovely memories to Malawi.....

Since I have a long list of chores to do, will go straight to the recipe for the day. It'll be a very short, easy and lovely recipe to share. Thanks to Ummi Kuantan and Mak Lang Azie for sharing the recipe with us.... It really quench the thirst and if you're familiar with F&N Fruitade, well the taste is similar minus the gas hence more healthy....is it? Hahaha... lu pikirlah sendiri......
