I hope I got that right...that you are a tomcat and not a female one. Sorry...this is my first visit here. You can bet it won't be my last. <br /><br />Talking about kuih cara - it's been sometime since I helped make them. When we were living in Dhaka and we didn't have bazaar ramadans there (kalau ada pun tak lalu nak makan), we had to make our own kuihs. I'm very bad at making kuihs. So I went to a friend's house, who I think make the best savoury kuih cara, and helped out. The reward was of course a tupperware of kuih cara to bring back home for berbuka.Madam Tai Tai Againhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06595768186117172906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145006352697447780.post-24978054823622796552010-08-29T16:51:38.499+08:002010-08-29T16:51:38.499+08:00Uncle Lee,
