My Diary November 19, 2024 || To my mother's place.
Masya Allah the weather today is so cold, this morning the cold air is still felt because it has been raining since last night and it has been raining continuously for the past few days, usually in the morning and evening.
All my activities as a housewife at home are finished, I go to my mother's house very early in the morning. Not to take my daughter but I miss being at my mother's house. Sometimes I get tired alone at home without anyone to talk to. I just want to play there, I miss the forest behind my mother's house. In the past, I often came here to herd cows and goats. Now I just miss wanting to wander and see the condition of this place.

The air this morning is really fresh and clean, not many drivers have passed by because it is still too early, I also leisurely ride my motorbike slowly while waiting to breathe fresh air to my heart's content.
I arrived. My daughter immediately ran into my mother's arms and she was so happy to meet them while I, after greeting and chatting I went straight to the room to lie down my body which felt heavy, as if my weight was not 50 kg but 100 kg as I felt.
Ah, it's so good, I roll around, sleep on my back, stomach, sideways and even somersault. But being in the room keeps making me feel bored. Finally I go to the front of the house to greet the neighbors, chat with them and even exchange news 😋.

I left my neighbors who were gossiping excitedly, I stepped out of the "fussy mothers" area, then I took out my cellphone camera to take pictures of flowers. There was a flower that caught my attention, I liked the color and shape. For me, the flower felt very beautiful. Celosia cristata or we call it chicken comb. I took pictures of this flower with several portraits, if it wasn't good I repeated it several times to get good results.

Because if I try to take a good picture, my hands move and shake so that the picture is sometimes blurry or not on target. I also took pictures of marigold flowers, this flower is very beautiful and attractive. In my area, the leaves of this flower have good properties, namely they can relieve bloating and flatulence. Usually when my daughter has bloating and a stomach ache, I will rub these leaves with wind oil.
During the two hours I was at my mother's house, I went home before that I went to the market to look for kitchen ingredients that had run out and also bought cooking oil.
This afternoon, after cleaning the fish and cooking rice, I then cooked food for my little family's lunch. Today my daughter wanted to eat crab and they suggested I make crab soup.
I got ready to prepare the ingredients and was helped by my husband to cook. I mixed delicious soup spices. I can cook thanks to my mother. When I was little and a teenager I always accompanied my mother in the kitchen, it's not that I didn't like playing with my friends, but I was very curious about how my mother cooked delicious food every day, I was curious about what was put in the food and how much.
Until now I really like cooking, except when I'm lazy ☺️.
Yep. I mixed the soup spices, cut the potatoes and also the carrots, celery and also the spring onions. Don't forget I added some spices to make it more fragrant and the aroma of spices is strong, I like it.
After 15 minutes my food was ready, I ate it with vermicelli and meatballs while my daughter and husband ate it with white rice. We had lunch together while chatting.
