Arisan August 2006

Kali ini laporan dalam Bahasa Indonesia. Arisan kali ini dijadikan satu dengan acara Kerabat Jawa di rumah mbak Wanty tapi sehari sebelumnya rumahnya disatroni maling. Hidup memang seperti menumpang sebuah bahtera, kadang lautnya tenang, kadang ditimpa badai, itu menurut pendapat mbak Wanty. Arisan dipindahkan ke kebun depan rumah dengan perabot seadanya. Yang datang memang kurang banyak tapi makanan cukup berlimpah bahkan yang punya rumah dalam keadaan seperti itu masih bisa memasak bubur ayam dan membuat bolu kukus.

Tetangga ikut melongok dan ikut prihatin. Menurut tetangga muka, belakang, semua pas pergi pada jam kemalingan yang terjadi pada siang hari itu.

Arisan July 2006 plus Silver Wedding Anniversary Party

The arisan of the month of July was held today at Ike's place in Gymea. Today was a very special arisan because it was also the celebration of the 25th Wedding Anniversary of Ike and Erik de Haas. Plenty of food enjoyed among good friends and neighbours. Happy Silver Wedding Anniversary to Mr and Mrs de Haas!
