All Green - "Earth Day" lunch 110510

Four of us who recently got the confirmation letter of our respective promotion (alhamdulillah!) - decided to throw a makan-makan session for our sector.

So we held the sectoral meeting followed by lunch, sponsored by us.

Threw in some present-giving ceremony - for birthdays, 2 newly-wed officers and 1 who just got his second baby.

Since it was also a Majlis Kesyukuran, the boss asked for a bacaan yaasin & do'a selamat to be included in the itinerary.

Since Idy, one of our officers, just came back from Korea for a COTI program, she decided to present some slides on the program.

And someone said - "why don't we all dress up in green in conjunction with Earth Day?".

So there - we ended up having yet another all-in-one lunch in the office. Heh.

Main theme - Back to our origin a.k.a Selero Kampong

Menu:

White rice

Ikan bakar with air asam
Daging salai masak lemak cili api
Ayam goreng berempah
Bergedel
Sayur campur
Ulam-ulaman with sambal belacan
Fruits - honey dew & banana
Sago with santan & gula melaka
Choc moist/carrot walnut cupcakes from Anna of Bake Freshly

And yes, it was yet again, a good lunch - food was okay, the cakes really yummy - and center of attention too. Turned out we have some rather old-school bosses who were not familiar with the trend of substituting traditional cakes with fancy cup cakes. One or two found the cakes to be "cantik sangat, sayang nak makan.."  someone was reported of being the recipient of cupcakes for his birthday in October last year and he'd never eaten a single cake until all of them rot in his room because "cantik sangat, sayang nak makan"

Thanks Kit for recommending Anna and for letting me to use your name as the introducer. Anna was pretty busy but was kind enough to take our less-than-the-required-one-week-notice order. The premium cakes for the birthday girls/guys were super yummy - carrot walnut with cheese frosting, yeay!

I think we might have yet another makan-makan soon in the office.
I just got a letter of transfer to Parcel D yesterday.
I am supposed to report for duty next Monday.

"Apa yang CC menungkan tu?"

"Puan, jomlah makan. Ambil gambar je tak kenyang, puan..."

Parents-to-be (with respective partners though) who both celebrate their birthday on January 15 - Fairuz aka Peyuz & Nabil

Encik J: "Rasa macam tak larat dah ni"

Tn Hj M: "Eh, makan, makan. Banyak lagi ni... "

En Z oO "I kalau ikan bakaq cecah ayaq asam memang tak angkat muka dah makan ni..."

Comel kan birthday cuppies kita ni?

CC yang malu-malu nak ambil gambar dengan birthday cupcake

"Eh-eh, dua orang je pegawai lelaki yang pakai hijau?"

Anizz tak baca emel minta semua pakat-pakat pakai baju hijau sebab jaga kaunter semalamnya, huhuhu

Chiiii zu!
