Bakso I have to admit that my love for cooking is growing. It's growing and I can't believe it myself. This feeling has been like this since probably two years ago. Before, cooking felt like a hard work that I had to fulfill. It still is, but the difference is I enjoy it now. So it does not feel like I am forcing myself. Back then whenever I cooked, it's either wrong recipe or incorrect measurement. It never tasted right. So I gave up cooking just because I never found the right one. And then I started to feel that I wanna eat better. I don't want to just eat whatever, I want to know what goes into my body. If I prepare it myself, then I know it's good one. I don't eat too much sugar, sometimes it is hard to buy one thing outside and has a lot of sugar in it. So cooking it myself will allow me to control the amount of sugar. So I found recipes and I tried to make them. As to my surprise, they taste right! Exactly how they should have tasted. That made me happy
Setelah melihat pembuatan kerambah di Banyumulek, kita geser langkah kaki kita menuju Desa Sukarara. Waktu pertama kali ke Lombok, kita hanya sempat ke Desa Sade tanpa ke Sukarara. Katanya sih Sukarara motifnya lebih cerah gitu. Disana, ada display beberapa ibu-ibu yang lagi nenun dan pake baju tradisional gitu. Kitapun disambut bapak pemandu yang secara otomatis manduin kita. Dan you know what, kita difoto sama salah satu pemandu disana buat koleksi pribadi dia sendiri dan seneng gitu katanya liat aku sama HJ. Lapo coba seneng iku? Dijelaskanlah semua hal yang berhubungan dengan Desa Sukarara ini. Kalau Desa Sade mempertahankan desain rumah adat dan keadatannya, Sukarara lebih ke sentra tenunannya. Jadi semacem workshop tenunan Lombok. Aku sempet nenun lho. Dengan harapan nggak merusak tenunan si ibu, akhirnya aku cobain nenun. Sambil nenun sambil mikir juga ini bikin motifnya gimana, kok bisa rapi begini. Benangnya dimasuk-masukin pokoknya sama si ibu terus 2 kali henta
