Weekend Wedding

It's the school holiday now, which also means it's the peak of wedding season too. You can see little signboards with bunga manggar terpacak at almost all junctions and colorful canopies blocking almost all roads in taman perumahan.

If this doesn't show that it is indeed the
wedding season, I dunno what does haha!

We also have our fair share of wedding invitations this time around, but unfortunately can only make it to just a few and priorities are of course given to close relatives, then only friends. Oh well...

So on Saturday, we headed to Kuala Pilah for SRB's cousin's wedding around 10-ish AM. Driving through Bukit Putus yg berbelit and bergaung was quite challenging especially if you're stuck behind the super heavy-weight lorries and buses. (Can't they make a rule for 'kenderaan berat' not to be on the road during school holidays the same as they do during Raya?).

While we're searching for a place to eat dinner that night, we came across this:


See, I have seen people wearing 'Cafe Batu Keras' (a.k.a Hard Rock Cafe) T-Shirts for quite a number of times but have yet to see the real cafe bearing this name, until now hehe. It's actually a 2-in-1 shop where they sell landscaping stuff (pasu, statues, etc) and also lauk-pauk Melayu. You can enjoy your food sitting under a shady hut or duduk bersila on a wooden plank, surrounded by mini waterfall and mini kolam. It's quite cozy actually with the suasana kampung and all, but they don't serve tomyam (how can they not?!!). So, we cancel lah to eat there hehe.

Sunday, went to Kelana Jaya for my cousin's wedding pulak. I just realized how big her house is when I saw that they managed to pasang 8 big canopies inside her halaman rumah hebats! No need to block the road at all, leaving ample space for people to park. When we got married, we had to use the padang for our canopies and they used their halaman rumah sahaja? Seriously, for me that IS big.

Anyway, congratulations to all brides and grooms! Let's raise our glasses to all the lovely couples and to the beginning of the beautiful adventure they are about to embark together. Cheers~
