I celebrated raya. On a small scale and it was wonderful. Why? cause it was with my loved ones. Raya was on Tuesday here in Sweden and I found out at 9am on Tuesday morning, totally unprepared but what the heck.. celebrate.. took me a while to get my butt moving.
I cooked nasi kunyit, deep fried chicken, sayur lodeh, sambal, and kuah kacang. For dessert we ate the chocolates Lesley Anne sent from Scotland.
I asked Noah, 'what was the best part of the day?' He replied 'the sweets'. Bless yours soul Lesley Anne. He really likes the 'puppy-bear' shirt too :)

I have not had any late night snacking/munching since last Saturday.. till Tuesday ... 6 days total. That's a new record for me and yes, I am so darn proud of myself. My cousin told me she sleeps early. yes that worked too. Otherwise Bob Greene's tip of drinking tea seems to give better results. I drink a cup or two of herbal tea and it is my way of winding down before I go to bed.
