The 'day' - Day 4 of Nasi Kerabu 'Khau Jhum'

My day begins early at 3am. My cleaner comes in early too. Yes, thereabout at 3am.

First the rice are cooked, followed by washing and slicing of the vegetables. We shared out the slicing of vegetables. This time around, I managed to find the kunyit flower. It adds extra flavour to 'Khau Jhum'. It tasted better eating it whole than sliced up. Hence I left it whole! ^-^

All the vegetables and/or condiments are ready to be packed by 6am on the 'day'. They are all laid out on my dining table.

Top from Left to Right: Plastic spoons & rubber bands, grinded fish (they sure smelled fragrant!), sliced cucumber, sliced daun kesom, kunyit flower, cooked green rice

Bottom from Left to Right: Packed budu sauce, taugeh, grinded coconut, sliced long beans, sliced onions, sliced serai and 'hot' pounded chili plus an empty bowl

Then, the packing began. I started off with my list of clients on whose 'Khau Jhum' are to be packed accordingly to the time of requested delivery. First, clients from my dear hubby's office as he helped me to deliver them to his workplace; clients from Lutong and Curtin University and then to the rest of clients from and around town/Krokop area/Pelita Commercial area.

My youngest sister helped me to deliver the packed 'Khau Jhum' to my clients in Lutong and Curtin University. A big 'thank you' to her.

I took a short break to have my breakast after I completed the packing for clients of Lutong and Curtin University. Its normally a hot cup of coffee and 'take-away' kueh tiaw which my dear hubby had bought for me. ^-^

After that, I continued with the rest of the packing. By 10.30am, I finished packing and cleared the table. My cleaner helped to wash the used containers.

I am off to deliver the packed 'Khau Jhum' around 10.45am and this driving covered a total distance of around 20km for delivery to clients around town/Kropkop area/Pelita Commercial area.

By 11.30am, I am back at home. On the way back, I stopped by at the vegetarian shop in Boulevard Commercial area to buy 'take-away' lunch for my cleaner and myself. A quick lunch for us - my cleaner to continue with the cleaning works and myself, organised my son's lunch. I am off to school by 1pm to pick up my son who finishes school at 1.30pm. I have to go early to find a good parking spot.

I takes things leisurely in the afternoon. Some afternoons, I packed 'Khau Jhum' for clients who like them for their dinner.

My family and I had 'Khau Jhum' for dinner too. Yummy, yummy....
