Do You Know ?

Hello there! Good morning! I have realised that there are many things we do not know but those things are within the knowledge of some others. I would like to share this knowledge with others. My idea is to compile the things that I know through my reading, experience and information passed down to me of which you may or may not know. If the collection makes good reading material then I will publish a book to be named "101 Things You May Not Know" or in Bahasa Malaysia " 101 Perkara Yang Anda (Mungkin) Tidak Tahu" Off and on I will enter a few entries on this subject in my blog. You may comment and say whether you have already known about that or that its new to you.
I am happy to note that the number of visitors to my blog is increasing daily. However most of them are silent readers. So to encourage comments I am going to offer gifts to the comment entry in my blog number 50th, 75th and the 100th ( for this I will count from the first entry by fellow blogger,OO. I will approve all entries that are not obnoxious. You may want to know what is the nature of the gifts. It will be in the form of a bottle of homemade(by Mak Teh), acar buah utara (very deliciously appetising!) On top of that if the entry is a very good and positive one, I will add another bonus, a bottle of tempoyak (home-made A grade, product of our dusun, lovely taste like grade A cheese) Whoever wins (or the representative)will have to collect the gift or gifts at a place in Kuala Lumpur). Thank you for your interest and happy blogging with comments entries in my blog! Good Luck!He, he, he.

A Saturday Morning

Hello guys! This morning I went to my publisher's office. The people there invited me for two reasons; first they wanted me to give some motivational talks (to be more specific on how to sell books ). you see it seems that during the last K.L. International book fair I have helped them to sell many, many units of my books. So they wanted some tips on how to do that kind of sale.Tuan Haji M thinks that I am a natural talent for salesmanship (Thank you tn Haji M). Secondly, they came to know that I can cook very delicious Koay teow. So the girls had requested that I should bring some of my delicious cooking. Of course I felt flatterred and had promised them that I would.So it ended this morning I gave the(much enlightened?) talk and the dish they had been waiting (salivating) for. As you may have already guessed, after the talk we had the makan and after the makan. Then after the makan (you won't believe this) the girls pesterred me for the recipe. In the end they 'kecek' ( bahasa kedah for soft talked) out from me not only the koay teow recipe but the mee hailam, mee bandung and bihoon special. When I asked for the 'pengkeras' they gave me two new books by Nambai! So I had accepted it that at least they gave me something for the 'pengkeras' All is well that ends well! The girls inturn promised to invite me back to the office after they have tried my recipe and maybe we will work together to publish a book on Mak Teh's Recipe in the future! He, he, Look out for it!
