First Day Of School After Winter Break


The second semester commences in winter so, Ain wears a long school pants today together with a sweater. This girl, unlike her sister, likes wearing her skort (a combination of skirt and short) to school. Along has lost her school sweater so, she has to wear her other sweater. After so much playing computer games at home (and less doing revision for their mid year exam next week ...hmm..) they seem to be ever ready to go to school. To tell the truth, some of the games website are even suggested by the school for children to try at home as they are educational but yet fun (but of course with our supervision).
As for the sweater, they just need it in the morning and probably when they are on the way back from school around 3.30 pm as it is just two hours before sunset. In the afternoon, the temperature now is about the same as the afternoon in Malaysia. We also experience a longer night during winter and Maghrib starts around 5.40 pm as compared to Malaysia at around 7.15 pm. Sunset is also the time I feel is the coldest...colder than in the middle of the night.
When the kids have sharpened their pencils to start a new semester, it's their Ibu who seems to be still in a holiday mood. Suddenly ran out of idea what to prepare for Along and Ain's lunchboxes. At last, I just made for them hotdogs and plain sausages. No fruits today because they don't want it. At the moment, am busy thinking what to prepare for their lunchboxes tomorrow morning...

About muffin, can start googling for the recipe now...but too many la that I don't know which is the tastiest. Err...why don't u put it in ur blog so that I can...well, as usual...he he.

Iza, brilliant idea tu but another big problem is the two girls don't seem to share the same interest in food most of the time. Sorang suka mihun goreng, nasi lemak or mi goreng, yg lg sorang tak suka pulak. Sorang suka french toast with cheese, yg sorang tak nak cheese. So, I've got to think of food that both of them like...ishh
