SURe Baqau

It all started with someone's suggestion of having a small BBQ session among 4-5 families. For a nominal fee of rm 20 per head, you can enjoy beef, lamb, chicken, spaghetti and of course in the company of good neighbourly conversation. Word spread quickly and we eventually ended up serving more than 5o residents.

Birthday and BBQ

Residents of Sinaran Ukay are simply searching for an excuse to gather the neighbours and share a feast.

Last Sunday residents Yazid and Fazu celebrated their daughters' birthday by the pool. Both daughters Sara and Lia's birthdays coincidently fell on the 1st of January.

In the meantime, the grown-ups have to eat (not necessarily the cup cakes) and the most logical thing to do is to go out and buy more fresh chicken to marinate and of course BBQ for the evening.

Better watch that cholesterol level, otherwise get onto the thread-mill !

Landshare@Sinaran Ukay

http://pgjennielove.wordpress.com/category/my-gardens/the-vegetable-plot/

I am a big fan of Hugh Fearnley- Whittingstall. Admittedly he is not a celebrity with much fame, but his effort and ideology had endorsed him a celebrated man in the mind of some. He is more famously known as the man behind The River Cottage, The Chicken Run and best of all - The Landshare project.

Find out more about Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall & The River Cottage @ www.rivercottage.net.

In my humble opinion, the Landshare project is something Sinaran Ukay as a community can emulate as it is both environmental friendly and fun at the same time. The objective of this project is a balancing act for people to plant their own food but possess no land and for people who owns excess land. During summer time in UK, it is a family project where all members of the family will clear the land, plough and seed the soil, water and fertilize it regularly, nurture and finally harvest the herbs / vegetables!

Compared to the Landshare project in UK, we have an advantage because idle land within Sinaran Ukay compound is sufficient for us to kickstart this project without enlisting allocation of lands from authorities or sponsors. We are also blessed with summer season all year round. Therefore we can concentrate on the operational part, proposed as followings:

1. Identify idle land within Sinaran Ukay that is suitable for this project; i.e. for planting vegetable or herbs, etc. Ideally not on a slope where no man nor woman can access.
2. Allocate the idle land into small pieces of allotment, with the approval of the condo management, of course.
3. Enlist families who are interested in this project. They will be subsequently known as GROWER.
4. Set up a sub committee to oversee that allotments are being assigned in a fair manner, preferably by drawing lots among the growers.
5. Communicate the guideline of this project to the growers; if necessary a small deposit can be collected in anticipation when the grower desert his allotment halfway, and therefore require extra help to clear his land.
6. Each grower is responsible for his / her own allotment; i.e. what to plant, when to water & fertilize, the type of tools & equipments required, etc. However, I recommend a clear guideline on the type of plant allowed, for example, we do not want to plant cactus because it may obscure others or could even be dangerous to young children.
7. The recommended plant types are either vegetables or herbs.

8. Finally enjoy playing the real live Farmville (facebook) and celebrate the fruits of your harvest.

high-tea till supper

What initially started as high-tea continued till dinner and eventually ended as late supper. The overwhelming pot-luck contribution by the residents seems more than enough to last till tomorrow morning's breakfast.

Seriously, some folks get to 'tapau' back as there were abundance of good food from 'curry kepala ikan' mee rebus, agar-agar, kerepek, pudding, bananas, rojak etc. all very much 'home-made'.

Topic of the day, 'who stays on top 4 of the English Premier League'.

M.U.

Another M.U.

Lagi-lagi M.U.

Moral of the story for ..... 'stomach full' - You'll never EAT alone !

cucur udang, seedless grapes & air suam

Laid on the table are enough succulent choices of food to tickle your palette served on a set of 'bring your own colourful utensils' , a handful of residents sat for an evening of chatting, gossiping and planning while keeping an eye on the kids swimming in the pool.

Hot among the topics are the planned celebration to usher in the new year as practised religiously by a group of residents who would rather stay at home than get caught in the jam-packed streets of KL.

Word has it that there will be another round of 'talks' among the residents who promises to put up a worth while celebration in the remaining days of what is left of 2009.

The jolly good days are here to stay !

impromptu BBQ.

It was a last minute decision that in less than 24 hours a group of residents decided to set up a BBQ feast and collectively purchase, prepare, marinate mutton, beef, seafood to the delight of  everyone present. 

There were no specific agenda for the night but in general gossips and chatting including expectations from the new management and how everyone can play their part in maintaining the well-being  of the condominium.

Hopefully, with more time to communicate, more residents will join in.

BBQ pre-meeting

Last Sunday a meeting was held among the residents (including representatives from JMC) with regards to the BBQ party planned in conjunction to this year's Chinese New Year Celebrations. 

Among other things discussed were the food & drinks, financials and supporting activities planned during the celebration. Long time resident Nazarudin has taken upon himself to be the Royal Executive Chef for the night volunteering to shop, marinate, prepare and cook for all residents with assistance from Azhar, Jamal, and Zam. 

Dadzie will be concocting the drinks for the night including other dishes like mee hoon etc.

 

For tit-bits Zam will be donating Keropok since MU is now top of the table. :-(

During the meeting, goreng pisang, kropok lekor and cucuk ubi was donated kindly by Nazarudin and Yam. (the only thing missing was Teh Tarik-  tercekek)

Tentatively, activities for the night will be Camping Nite out for the kids (and the young at heart) - courtesy of Nazarudin & Aziz,  big screen projection & sound system (Asri) and possibly even a karaoke by another resident (apologies name not known at the moment).

JMC president Krish and Committee member Dahili were present to support the needs of the event especially the use of the premises and facilities. Overall turn out by the residents was very encouraging indeed.

The official notice from JMC will be out soon, stay tuned for further development.

For those who were unable to make it for the meeting, no worries there will be another one very soon.

Attendance : Nazarudin, Dadzie, Jamal, Azhar, Zam, Krish, Dahili, Angah, Puan Nawal, Laila, Asri, Rosli, Zubir, Yam (apologies if your name's been left out)

Family trip of a Fellow Resident

The following is a memorable account by resident Aziz on his recent holiday trip up North with fellow resident Nasarudin. Kudos on your effort in sharing the experience with all of us.  Enjoy ! 

Family trip is one good way to enhance bonding between family members and neighbors. During the last December school holidays, Nazaruddin (Unit 4.12) and myself (Aziz 2.13) took our families to Penang and Cameron Highlands. I would like to share some of those moments with residents of Sinaran Ukay – may be next time, more residents could join in for similar family trips.

Meeting point R&R Rawang  (15/12/08)

Lunch at the famous Ipoh Nasi Kandar

Dinner at a Batu Ferringhi Food Court

The following day (16/12/2008) we have a great breakfast with Kueteow soup and mee udang at no other than Sifu Omar (ask Asri about this place)

Then another breakfast at Transfer Lane roti canai and special Penang toasted bread with eggs on top

No lunch for today as we had enough to last us the whole day ! Then we headed to Gurney Plaza for some shopping and stop by at Starbucks for a drink

After Gurney Plaza, we took a breather and drove back to our accommodation in Batu Ferringhi but not before we sampled the famous Laksa Penang along the way. That night, we took a drive down south to Batu Maung via the long and winding Balik Pulau road, where we had a very sumptuous dinner.

On Wednesday 17/12/2008, we checked out and proceeded to Cameron Highlands, but not before we had another Nasi Kandar lunch in Ipoh.  The drive to CH was via Simpang Pulai. We stopped at Green View for a drink and enjoyed the nice, cool air.

Then we checked in at a private bungalow

That afternoon, we felt like being British and had our English tea complete with scones at Bala’s Chalet

The weather was cold and we forgot to take dinner pictures at Tanah Rata. The food was good though. 

The following day (18/12/2008) we had our breakfast at the same place, after which we headed for home. Along the way we stopped at Lakeside to buy some vegetables and souvenirs.

All-in-all it’s a fun trip. 

Our Social Convenor may want to look at similar family trips if residents are receptive to the idea. It could be a picnic at Port Dickson, lunch in Bagan Lallang or weekend in Genting.
