The road to a friend's home is never long

Dec 24th,.. I've been invited by Mddiah for a lunch at his house in Rawang Perdana. I got the invitation via phone call and a couple of sms. I never had the heart to disapoint a nice cool friend like him. I knew he really meant it...
As I reached the Rawang toll, I got a call from nadzri (budakbudu) informing me he was about to reach mddiah's house. Unfortunately he couldnt afford to guide me in details becos he's too quite an alien to the area. Feeling lost in Rawang, a small bustling town, I stopped at McD to call nadzri who later passed the call to Mddiah for the directions. Mddiah told me to wait because he would come and get me from there. I never meant to bother him, just the directions would do. So kind of him, I just couldnt resist it... he came and escorted me all the way to his home. Feeling like a VIP, ... I was so touched.
heavy traffic on the way to mddiah's
At Mdddiah's place Nadzri (budakbudu) and Adnan were already there soothing themselves at the corner of the lovely manicured garden enjoying the beats of quarry blasting nearby, while their families were inside. Nadzri said they were just waiting for my arrival to officiate the launching of mddiah's Nasi Beriani Gam,.. Timing was perfect then, since from the morning I didnt eat anything, just a cup of nescafe to kick start my day.... It was fun to have a get together once in awhile. We chatted, we laughed....(yes, in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, for in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed). We talked about anything, the present, the past and the future... We helped each other recalled stories and names.. though there are some memories still intact in each other's mind and unintentionally certain names like Laily Sofia, Sherry etc cropped up in the conversation, ,..they were personalities of our time. Sadly, these ppl never knew of our existence back then.
The nasi beriani was so delicious...me and Nadzri did a few top ups.... I feel glad for being part of this get together which I enjoyed it so much and looking forward for another. I didnt snap pics since I forgot my cam in the car. Thanks Mddiah and Norita for the warm reception. May happiness and prosperity be with you and family always.

Was it Briani Gam?, I thought it was Tomato Rice (Pus Gum maybe) Whatever it was, the rice was so finger licking good that made me top-up twice... It was a very refreshing day indeed. I always like Md Diah house, infact my house was rearangged based on his house's concept - space and more space, minus the 'berserabut' furnitures.

I apologize for making the gathering short. I was the one who made the first move to alight from Md Diah's house, and then everyone followed. If not because of my daughters Art Class, I would have stayed longer! Thanks to Md Diah, Norita and family for inviting us. Looking forward to another makan session at MTO house! Bila yek?

He he..Was it Tomato Rice? Need Mddiah to confirm this.....it was delicious really.

Makan session at my place? he he..you're all welcome..but my place has no furniture since the concept is 'minimalist berserabut'..

We are not looking at furnitures, tho, A simple food will do, perhaps something associate with Kajang...!
