arisan ibu-ibu dan gado-gado

arisan is a group of some person, with an activity of gathering some amount of money periodically. in each period they will draw a name (or more) to get the collected money. the periods should go on until everybody gets the same amount of money.



the housewives arisan group monthly meeting in my neighborhood was held in my house this evening. it should start at 16.00, and I started preparing at 14.00. imagine, it was such a rush hour. alhamdulillah I got these helpers with me. what should I do without them?
arisan ibu-ibu bulan ini di rumahku. acara dimulai jam 16.00, dan jam 14.00 aku baru siap-siap. bayangkan, rush hour. alhamdulillah ada sukarelawan ini. apa jadinya aku tanpa bantuan mereka?



i served hot tea for the drink and some snacks such as brownies, fried banana, and tahu bakso.
(tahu bakso is tofu filled with minced beef)
here is the main course, gado-gado. want to try to make it? it's easy (remember, I only do simple cooking).

aku suguhkan teh panas dan snack (brownies, pisang goreng dan tahu bakso)

sauce:
200 grams of sambel pecel, boil with 300 cc of thin coconut milk

arange all ingredients in a plate (except emping and krupuk), pour some sauce, and put emping and kerupuk on top
