Today, sharing the apple crumble recipe which i got from one of my best collegue while we were working together in the Courts at Jalan Duta, Kuala Lumpur....Rashidah Zainal....those were the days when we were young....we were so closed even after both of us got married....both our husbands got entangled too and we just loved cooking and barbequeing together....she, too likes cooking and she is one of the best cook..so was her late mum....She is also a Muarian....She had left her service just after I got my transfer to Kemaman to follow my dearest husband....we had lost contact once, but managed to rekindle our friendship when her husband who is a doctor moved to Besut...where at that time, i met her husband, Jack (Ramli) with her only daughter ,jaja at one of the stalls near the bus station in Kuala Terengganu and I was shocked to hear that Shidah was admitted to the Kuala Terengganu Hospital for the operation of fibroid....I went to see her then and when her husband was transferred elsewhere, she got missing again....
