Maulidur Rasul 15 Feb

Recently during the Maulidur Rasul, my parents held a simple 'Selawat' ceremony for my Dad's Surau's gang.

The grilled keli was a 'sold out'

I missed shots on both the dessert and drink stand. Dessert was 'Lompat Tikam' and curry puffs which were also 'sold out'

The Patin and Keli were freshly caught in the morning from the rearing ponds behind my parent's house


Shot of the fish rearing pond behind my parent's house. Each is about 25 feet in diameter rearing Red Tilapias, Patins, Kelis and Puyu.



Water supply is pumped from underground source and stored in these reservoir tanks for filtering sediments.
There are 6 more of these smaller thanks to house the ready to harvest patin, keli and puyu



After this event I had a short rest before going for another Maulidur Rasul festivities at Haji Boss's house.

some of you may ask, why is it always food?
Well, both my parents love to cook, and cook very well they do indeed. 

Me? I'm too lazy, although some people that know me do swear by their life on my abilities. 
Those were the not-so-lazy days then... heh..
