Jeruk Pak Ali Pulau Pinang

you know last time we went to Pulau Pinang to attend encik husband's friend's wedding? yup, and it was so fun! anyway, kalau pergi penang tapi tak beli jeruk adalah bukan "visiting penang". katenye lah.

so we went to Chow Rasta to buy some of the jeruk. usually i bought the one yang ah soh or apek jual, quite cheap there, dalam half kg for rm5 kot camtu. memang murah. but this time around, since encik husband ikot, dia kate beli yang jeruk pak ali.

well, of course jeruk pak ali sangat mahal, kalau compare dengan jeruk yang ah soh or apek jual. but looking at the bright side, jeruk pak ali claimed that diorang punya jeruk lebih healthier and delicious compared to other jeruks. jeruk pak ali jual dalam half kg rm10 kot. where else jeruk chow rasta jual half kg rm5. double the price.

anyway, no doubt memang sedap and tak sakit tekak makan.

that night bila sampai rumah, i was just started to prepare our dinner when suddenly encik husband appear on my back, while holding scissors and a packet of jeruk. jeruk mangga is his favourite.after cutting the packet, encik husband took a sip of the cuka jeruk tu. and when i saw that, i straightly shouted,

 "sayang! janganlah minum air jeruk tu!!"

"kenapeeee...... tak boleh ke? " with his sad face.

"bukan tak boleh....tapi tak elok..."

then he poured the air jeruk dalam sinki. and shouted back,

"sayang! kenapa buang air jeruk tu!!"

"sayang cakap tak boleh minum....."

"memanglah tak boleh minum, tapi you buang kenapa.....?"

and with the bored look on his face, he just went off to the living room, with the packet of jeruk.

i mean, com'on! people will understand right, you can't drink the air jeruk, but that doesn't mean you can throw the air jeruk. semua tau kan yang air jeruk tu act as a preservative untuk jeruk tu tahan lama. that's the point jeruk boleh tahan berbulan-bulan.

so now what? we have to finish the jeruk(s) within a month?????!!?? *pengsan*
