" And whenever anybody takes a moment to rhapsodize about the food, there is inevitably a grumpy person waiting in the wings to say “Food is not the point. You shouldn’t even be thinking about food.” Okay, brother. But while you’re performing extra prayers, who do you think is making that biryani you eat at sunset? It doesn’t cook itself. "
Kan? I was reading the article and absolutely agreed with the statement. True, its the "Festival of Worship" not "Food Feast" (haha just using AA's term) but any sentence that contain food/drinks should not be censored. Because, anybody that talks about food often frowned upon (aku la tu yang cakap tang makanan ja). You like it or not, food gotta be served. To be served, it need to be cooked. And cooking needs time for preparation, and ideas for presentation (mood masterchef haha). Same goes to Eid preparation. Whether I like it or not, I gotta start thinking about Eid, now, on 4th Ramadhan. Too soon? Nope IMO because we gotta prepare Teratak a number of people that is triple compared to now. Because we gotta prepare food tenfold perhaps. Because I want to have my Eid beautiful, tanpa sebarang peristiwa yang akan mencacatkannya, mungkin. And the key is planning, and it's execution. Tang execution laa paling susah. haha
The bottom line is, modesty. Saya percaya yang selalu orang "frown upon" tang makanan mesti sebab melebih-lebih. Kang? Pastu pasal raya pon sebab lebih-lebih jugak. Kejar Lailatul Kamdar instead of Lailatul Qadr. Ke3 *gelak gedik*
p/s: Yay 4th Ramadhan full of blessing. Aku rasa berpuasa perut jauh lebih senang dari berpuasa mata, telinga, mulut dan sebagainya. Tak ke? Sebab, cuba kalau ada Zain Saidin tengah masak sambil buat muka comel, ce test iman, tutup tv ke gi lap cermin mata supaya boleh tengok terang-terang? Dah habis rancangan baru ingat "lower your gaze" *tutup tv* #cabaran&dugaan Ramadhan
p/s 2: Kudos to all Mamas and Wives that prepared food for the families !!
