We had a GREAT lunch last saturday. Ay you know, Arabs are well known with their hospitality. So the situation are exactly similar to what we experience when we visited a Fiji house last year. The lady standing at the most left name Khabba if I'm not mistaken, she cooked everything tyou see in the picture below. The BBQ chicken, lamb, lasgnia, salad with humus served with the rice cooked with prawns and mushroom. It was INCREDIBLE. I was mesmerized by just looking at the dishes prepare. WOW! Subhanallah. They really adapt what Rasulallah say:-
Abu Hurairah, radiyallahu 'anhu, reported that the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, said:

"Let whosoever believes in Allah and in the Last Day either speak good or be silent. Let whosoever believes in Allah and in the Last Day honour his neighbour. Let whosoever believes in Allah and in the Last Day honour his guest."

[Al-Bukhari & Muslim]

After the big lunch we had, then she had another surprise. A birthday cake for Kak Mas who celebrated her birthdays 2 days before. So after singing the cliche birthday song, then I enjoy the cake that I has longing to eat for a long time, (I suppose) hehhe A choclate cake with cream on top make by someone at the bakery shop. It is fantastic! I especially like the cream hehhe
Few information collected from the chatting we had (afraid I might forget if I didnt write it down)

• for a pregnant women, you might want to try to drink milk and eat some nuts if you intended to breast feed your baby
• They have a better life after Saddam Hussein died in the sense that they can visit their parents home more or in short MUCH HAPPY (i dont really understand this matter of politics)
• The lamb in Iraq has no or less fat compared to NZ lamb. Maybe because of the shape of the lamb. There in Iraq and Kazakhstan as well, they have a sheep that have bigger size at the back which said that all the fat collected there=D
• The lamb are marinated with some soy sauce, garlic, lime and keep overnight, then just let the oven finish the job
• Humus is made with the 'kacang kuda', they love pickel (jeruk) but neither of us have it in our plate
• All the big plates are used in theur serving
• the house property in NZ is seriously high! A house with 3 bedrooms cost about 300K and she stil think that it is small
• what else?

But it is a really great time. I cant forget kak Aisyah's expression when having the lamb. She looks tremendously happy with the dish. She mentioned it just like what she have at her home, home style cook. I wish to imitate their great hospitality cause that is what Islam had taught us. or a nearby example, MY UMI=> need to learn from her hehhe
