This year marks our first Hari Raya celebration at this new home. It's a great experience and we are grateful that everything went well. As for the decorations, we keep it simple in order to avoid overspending. To mark this special event though, we had a dedicated display table especially for the Hari Raya cards from some of Brunei royal family members to share with others.
During the first two days of Raya, we spent a lot of time visiting family members to convey greetings and as such the house was closed to visitors. My wife and I started working on the third day of Raya and as such receiving guests was delayed a few more days.
Our first "openhouse" was on Thursday night as a special request from a few of my close friends. On the menu was rice with crispy fried chicken and cabbage, corn soup as well as my wife's delicious wet noodles. To all those who came (you know who you are!), thank you and we really enjoyed your company.
To all family and friends, we wish you Selamat Hari Raya!
