The Diary Game 01-Mei-2022 || The last day of fasting, and the streets celebrate the night of Eid

I woke up at 8:00 am washing my face and then went straight to the kitchen to cook with my sister and mother, as usual we shared tasks, cutting meat and grating coconut, to cook various Acehnese specialties such as rendang meat, red meat and white meat, it takes a lot coconut milk, to cook our meat takes quite a long time.

I can't believe the time has passed so fast, it's already 13:20. We took a short break to take a shower and perform the Dzuhur prayer, after the Dzuhur prayer I took a short break in my room before continuing to cook again because I was fasting and my body felt very tired.

My mother and sister continued to cook again in the kitchen, I took eggs, sugar, vanilla and pandan leaves to make srikaya jam (Aso kaya) on Eid day timphan is one of Aceh's must-have cakes, after the srikaya jam is cooked I continue to make the dough timphan.

Timphan dough is made from a mixture of glutinous rice flour and bananas, besides bananas, timphan dough can also be made with papaya or pumpkin (ground pumpkin), and for banana dough, how to make it mash a banana and mix it with flour, add a little salt and knead until the dough is smooth. and not sticky in your hands, to make Timphan we prepared young banana leaves, cooking oil and srikaya.

For how to make timphan, take a banana leaf that has been cut into small pieces, sprinkle with cooking oil so that the dough does not stick, take enough dough and thin it out, after thinning put the srikaya jam on it, then wrap the dough until the jam is neatly covered.

After all the dough is ready to be wrapped, I take all the timphan and steam it for 20 minutes over medium heat until the timphan is cooked.

After all the cooking work was ready I went to the friendly yard to sweep, I deliberately swept in the afternoon, so that tomorrow morning I wouldn't have to sweep again, we live in the village and many trees grow around the house.

It didn't feel like time had passed so quickly, it was getting dark, after all the work outside was finished I went to take a shower and prepare food for breaking fast, we broke our fast with the side dishes we cooked and also with my favorite fruit soup drink, my brother-in-law went to the market I told him to buy fruit soup for today's last iftar menu.

When breaking the fast at 18:41 we broke the fast with the family with the menu we had prepared, after breaking the fast I went to perform ablution for maghrib prayer, after maghrib prayer there was a sound of takbiran welcoming Eid al-Fitr in various places, I was still in the room for a while, because very tired all day.

To celebrate Eid night we went out around 21:00 to take a walk to the intersection, it's been 2 years since covid there was no celebration on Eid night, but this year, Alhamdulillah, covid is no longer there, so we can celebrate Eid night very well. rousing.

The roads are jammed, I can't take pictures of the festive atmosphere of Eid night, because it is very dangerous, I went with my husband and nephew, my niece would rather come with us than go with her mother and father, because me and my nephew are very close, we just walked As we walked to the framework of the intersection, because the road was very busy we did not walk forward, we stopped at a perfume shop to buy perfume, after buying perfume we chose to go home via a shortcut, the blang jrun road which passed to the front street of the nibong mosque.

When I left the house, I went out with my brother, but we went in different directions, my brother and husband went to Lhoksukon to buy a new cellphone, at 23.00 he called me he said he was in the nibong area too, we agreed to eat meatballs together at the meatball stall (Laris) , luckily I was still around Nibong so we went to meet him at the meatball stall.

We arrived at the meatball shop and my brother was already there, we immediately went to him and ordered meatballs and drinks, when we arrived there were only white noodles left, the usual yellow flour noodles had run out, because it was very busy, when we arrived the stall was a bit quiet because the menu was also a lot After that, we ate meatballs casually while chatting together.

After eating meatballs We went home at around 23:50, we went home together via Jalan Aron, mulieng intersection, we drove leisurely, the return trip from Nibong to the house was about 30 minutes by motorbike.

Arriving at home I immediately changed clothes and cleaned up the messy house, I also prepared a cake to welcome tomorrow's guests, I put the cake in a jar and arranged it into a small tray, when I was done, I washed my face and we went to bed because tomorrow I have to get up early for breakfast.
