SIBLINGS 64: CHINESE NEW GRAPES

Enticing grapes at Ah Sim's garden when we visited her house on the Chinese New Year.
Earlier in the morning, we visited Ch'ng, another of Zam's closest friend. Ch'ng's health has also improved tremendously as she could relate to us interesting stories about their long relationship. She wished that she could prepare the Penang laksa for Nana for the next Chineses New Year or even she could request Ah Sim's help in preparing the Penang Laksa under her tutelage in the near future.

Most Chinese couples believe that Valentine’s Day which coincided with the first day of the lunar new year on Sunday, February 14 was not a good date for marriage as it represents anger, argument and conflict. However I wish to convey my heartiest congratulation to my peer who has taken the marriage solemnization or akad nikah on Sunday February 14. I pray for Allah’s blessing that the couple would have a blissful marriage comparable to the blossomed grapes of Zam’s Chinese friend’s garden at Lorong Shariff, Alor Setar. Insya Allah
