My story today
He entered our home..hugged hatice, said hi to baddin..looked at me and said
*i talked to the rektör and he said i can start my new job officially early october instead of today (4th September)*
yippie!!!!
Yeah.. that was n is exactly what i felt/feel…..happy beyond words. I had almost given up on that place....and this news is …..:0)... he is starting his new job in october…n middle next month i think he will resign officially from his present post…so ..we would be free to spend at least a week in Edremit!!! My favourite place … his fav place… the kids’ fav place…for our summer holiday!!! Yeahhhhhhh……
The only sad thing about this trip is…news reached my ears.. baba said he is not coming with us this year….he said he is tired…*oh baba..why??* Edremit without u is not Edremit….. i am already used to the idea that holiday means u..,halil, the kids n i…despite feeling so happy about going to edremit....i feel sad inside that baba is not coming.. ..i hope baba will change his mind.. the date of departure? The devre (duration for our stay) will start on the 12th of september….but i suppose we will only go after keremcan’s n ekrem’s sunnet duğun (some sort of makan makan celebrating keremcan n Ekrem kena sunat).. so after the duğun… cabutttttt…eh posa bila start exactly yea?
Another story..
Halil was on the way home from the uni..he stopped at our meat shop (kasap). He asked for minced meat (kıyma)..the guy said. İn turkish.
*in the afternoon ur wife had already bought kıyma (minced meat)..so u already have it at home*
Halil said ok…*in that case let me buy normal chunk meat*
The seller then said * yenge (referring to me) already bought chunk meat as well*
In the end, Halil left the shop without buying anything… Have u met a seller who wont sell his product to the husband only because the wife bought the minced meat n chunk meat earlier on during the day?? I think this is what we call..people with pure hearts…

refcobass@rocketmail.com
i'll give u my phone number
ada share ka kat kedai tu? ke ke ke memang baguih sungguh orang kedai tu...kalau tidak penuh la petiais dengan daging hmmm...bravo to the 'orang kedai' :)
A butcher with a personal touch .... I suppose the service must be really good over there.
Simah oh Simah, summer holidays tak habis-habis lagi nampaknya :-) What a wonderful life.
alinlai
orang kedaini lain dari yg lsin kan? kami dah biasa beli daging kat dia..memang dia kenai dah..tapi memang la saya tabik kat dia.. money is not everything...
Queen of the house
in turkey u have shops selling meat which we call *kasap*. This once kasap memang baik gila diaorang...father n son punya kasap....saya tengok ramai kedai yg kat area kitaorang... masa sembahyang depa tutup kedai pi sembahyang....yea laa...surau depan kedai :0)
Alhamdulillah ..life is good here..insyaAllah dapat pi edremit...*simah melompat lompat*i thought our summer holiday dah abis pun aafter sapanca...Allah kesian kot kat kitaorang..i will take snaps 4 u all to see nanti :0)..
simah, dlm Tamil pun sebut 'kiyma' juga for minced meat..kiyma sedap makan dengan capati, tapi kedai mamak kat m'sia malas nak buat, they just serve with dalca
semoga lebih murah rezeki for you and family with halil's new job.
have a great time for your xxth time summer holidays...berapa kali nak summer break nih...jeles ni tau!
hmmm...bila masak nanti pass pass le sikit kat bro daging yang baik ati tu...lepas tu nanti bila you mintak sekilo di lebihkan pulak 1/4 kilo :)
bagusnya halil pi beli daging tanpa disuruh?
and bagus betul pak jual daging tu kenal you all sekeluarga. and siap ingat lagi saper datang pukul berapa!
simah, nak tanya lah soalan peribadi: halil comment apa tengok beautiful hatice pakai tudung?
sue
eh dlm tamil pun kıyma sama perkataan jugak ka?
sebenarnya ada la bahasa turki n bahasa urdu..n hindi yg sama..sebabnya..masa zaman zaman dulu... tentera turki (gamaknya zaman osmaniah) ada yg sampai ke india n stayed there..pakistan bla bla bla... tapi after some time i suppose the turkish language is mixed up with the local languge..itu halil yg claim la.. i am not sure the real history
mama rock
amin.... saya pun dok doa..bila murah rezeki boleh la balik mesia..akak doa doakan la yea?
jangan jeles akak..jom ikut kami hehehehe kami kat edremit bukan buat apa pon..pagi..laut.. balik bilik..masak..makan... rest...lepas tu laut.. keluar pon utk shopping barang dapur jer..
mama sarah
beli daging n barang dapur tu memang kerja dia hehehehe..i kalau masuk kedai susah nak keluar..
pak jual daging tu..anak dia..pangkat abang kot..rasa mcm dia single ja sebab mak dia selalu hantar lauk waktu lunch utk hubby n anak dia...
comment halil tengok hatice pakai tudung? when he first knew about it.. he was shocked actually.. memang la his dream..our dream is to see hatice bila dia besar nanti bertudung dan jadi gadis yg pakaian dia ayu n menawan islamically..so bila hatice sendiri decided to wear the tudung on her own accord at the age of 5 n a half years old... i memang teruja dengan anak gadis i ni.. memang la dia pakai tudung n still pakai terbuka buka..ie shorts... open dress..etc..etc.. tapi dia kecik lagi..n we told her pun..kalau dah besar sikit..dah baligh..kalau dia decide nak terus pakai tudung, she has to wear the proper clothing..tak boleh terbukak bukak lagi..
now dia pakai tudung on n off...tapi selalunya memang dia pakai..cuma kekadang bila mood dia malas dia tak pakai.. i dont pressure her.. i want her to decide on her own...like i said in my previous entries.. i want her to make a decision because it is the right decision for her.. not because we want her to...
Salam,
Simah, impressednya ngan sikap penjual daging tu. Jujur sungguh. tak mengejar keuntungan semata2.
Satu lagi, saya kagum dia blh kenal ahli keluarga customer dia..kalau tak, masakan dia blh kenal awak isteri Halil.
Bestnya naik sampan :D..berani awak ya ngan tak pakai pelampung. beria2 si Hatice membantu ayahnya :D
bercuti lagi? wah..bestnya, kali ni berapa lama pula?
syikin
memang orang jual daging tu memang jujur..baik dan peramah..tu yg menarik kitaorang ke kedai dia..
saya rasa dia senang nak ingat saya sebab saya orang luar kot..esp bila jalan dengan my 2 kids...susah orang nak lupa seba kitaorang kan tak muka turki..
hari tu tak plan pun nak naik sampan..tu on impulse ajer.. diaorang tak kasi pelampung.. dan memandangkan kitaorang semua boleh berenang..tu yg kitaorang bertawakkal n naik sampan..
kali ni tak lama..seminggu aja kot.. sbab hatice sekolah nak bukak dah..tu pun mungkin akan ponteng sehari dua sekolah... ..sebab bila dia masuk darjah satu tak boleh ponteng ponteng dah..nanti saya snap gambar yea? :0)
