First time puasa luar mesia nih...tambah pulak suami tak ada, sayu la jugak. First week teruk juga sebab puasa panjang, pukul 9 baru berbuka. Tapi Aidil steady je. First day Bob pun puasa (semangat berkobar-kobar). Tapi bila masuk second day, dah tak larat. Fizzy langsung tak tahan. So far hanya dua hari jer tahan sampai pukul 5.

Bulan puasa ni memang keje nye memasak. Almaklumla, kat sini tak ada bazar ramadhan. Minggu pertama masak pajeri nenas (tahan seminggu). Lauk lain tukar-tukar antara ayam panggang dan ikan siakap panggang, cicah air asam.

1 sudu besar kerisik (buat dari dessicated coconut)
