Eating with Zafry Famiry

Hi guys it's me again. It's been awhile :D. On this blog, we were given another novel to discuss on and this time we got a novel called the particular sadness of lemon cake. On chapter 8, Rose and her family seem to have a ritual during dinner time where they talk about themselves while eating. I find this similar to my family where we usually share dinner time together and it's the only time where we get to express ourselves. My family dinner can go in two different ways, one in which is that it can be really quiet (basically concentrating on our food 😂), the other one is that we are actually talking with each other.

Personally i think that my favourite dinner was when i was a kid and i had to compete with my sister. Since me and my sister's birthday was only 2 days apart, we always compete when to celebrate or which day to celebrate. Most of the time, my sister would have the advantage since her birthday is 2 days after which i found wasn't fair 😂. I am very competitive if not the most competitive in my family, I remember when I lost a game to my brother I would cry. Ok back to the dinner. I can't remember much of the details but basically, we had a birthday party on the afternoon and we had dinner as a family. All i could remember was i got a lot of gift on that day compared to my sister which was a joyful victory for me. 

One of the thing that my family is so strict about is that NO WATCHING TV WHILE EATING AND NO EATING IN THE ROOM. I guess that's reasonable if you think about it. Oh one more thing NO SINGING WHILE EATING why? I have no idea why actually but every time we sing, my mom would usually say ''recite prayers'' instead 😂. As you can see i am very skinny in person but my family are big eaters but it depends. My dad always complain about how when my mom made a lot of food, we couldn't finish it but when she tried to reduce the amount of food it's not enough for everyone 😂. 

To conclude, my family are big eaters but to a certain extend 😂. We are genetically skinny but somehow my dad manages to gain weight after marriage maybe it's because of my mom's delicious cooking. My mom will try to satisfy the needs of her children which is why i love her 💝. One of my goal is to learn cooking from her so that I could cook myself and others good food especially Laksa Sarawak to my friends.
