KETUPAT LEBARAN

 

In the seventh day of iedul fitri, some people in certain villages in East Java usually have “Kupatan Party”. The day means that iedul fitri celebration has ended and Moslem have to do regular activities ; the worker must come to their office back; the student must go to school as usual. Although almost of them consider that kupatan party is the ending of iedul fitri, there are few Moslem celebrating iedul fitri and visiting one another.

It is not difficult to make ketupat. First, we have to prepare “janur” ( the coconut leaves whisch is young and yellow) and then shaped pocket of plaited young coconut leaves we form it as Shinto, luar or others. Next, they are filled with rice for about ane third for each ketupat. Finally, ketupat must be boiled in the boiling water.

 

Ketupat can be served with vegetable dish cooked with coconut milk. We can put kidney beans, legume, tofu, fermented soybean cake (tempe) , unripe jackfruit. We can add grinded soybean to make it more interesting and delicious…..

IDUL FITRI

Like clarity of morning new…

This moment gives a good clue…

Moment when we reborn to be new….

Takbir shakes all over the world. It means then end of fasting month and the coming of the victory days. This event is waited by moslem. After fasting for a month, we have days when we forgive one another and make ourselves pure.

Waken up in the early morning, we feel something special. we fell His love.All of moslem go to the mosque to held “Sholat Ied”. These walks feel nice, like cocoon has become a butterfly. So nice….so beautiful!

Although this lebaran day is not celebrates at the same time (some on friday while others on Saturday) it still can chees is up. But, there is something different;there is no firecracker, there is no explosion. Our goverment has forbidden it. Instead the gas ballons which is made by the youth. After finishing sholat ied they light the ballons and they fly on the sky….Wow, so nice!

If one star falls everytime

We make mistakes

I bet the sky now dark

Already….

So, lets lighten it up again by forgiving
