A Homemaker’s Diary

I think it’s been a while since I last update anything on this blog. I’m sure many of Muslim friends and readers are excited to balik kampung for this Hari Raya holiday.

Please drive carefully and be patient with the traffic jammed on the highway.

May our amal ibadat during the month of Ramadhan be accepted by Allah SWT and Aidilfitri this year be a joyous occasion for you and your family.

I bought this book among a few other titles last month. I just finished reading a few chapters. The book is written specifically for fathers to learn what are the skills and techniques needed to ensure the best for their sons.

Mendidik Anak Lelaki
Penulis: Adnan Hasan Salleh
Terbitan: PTS

Buku Mendidik Anak Lelaki menitikberatkan kepada pentingnya peranan ibubapa, khususnya bapa dalam memberikan perhatian dan bimbingan yang islamik secara berterusan kepada anak, khasnya anak lelaki.

Mengapa bapa dan mengapa anak lelaki? Buku ini tidak bermaksud memandang remeh peranan ibu dan anak perempuan, namun kerana seorang bapa dan suami cenderung meninggalkan tanggungjawabnya sebagai pemimpin keluarga, sekaligus sebagai pendidik anak-anaknya kerana sibuk bekerja.

Buku ini mesti dimiliki oleh para ibu bapa yang mengimpikan anak lelaki mereka menjadi pemimpin umat.

For me, the book is quite dry, more like reading a thesis. So I am reading it first in order to jot down the important parts for Hubby to read later.

Recently I made a decoupage plaque with salam greetings for sale. The above with size of 36cm (width) x 20cm (the highest height) was sold for RM35. It can fit into the poslaju plastic, so the postage will be RM6 for Semenanjung Malaysia.

If anyone is interested to place a custom made order, kindly contact me at farah [at]bungatelur.com. I usually will need about a week to finish a small piece like that. The color theme could be adjusted according to your preference.

If you want something bigger, you can opt for plaque with this size and shape. The size of the plaque is approx. 36cm x 23.5cm. The price for this one is RM40 excluded postage. The color and the wordings on the plaque can be custom made according to your preference. I have a client who requested a pantun to be painted on the plaque. You can check more samples of completed (and sold) plaques on my biz Facebook – BungaTelur.

Wising you all a blessed Ramadhan.
