[Cooking With Love] A Tribute to An Indonesian Blogger's Angel (Bunda Inong Haris)


Bunda Inong was a very famous blogger. She is inspired me a lot to enjoy cooking and baking. I knew her from my friend when the first time I arrived here in Canberra, a capital city of Australia, which is far away from my home. We had to cook satay and we just search it on the internet, and suddenly my friend Deazy said let's open Dapur Budan Zidan & Syifa. It has a lot of delicious recipes inside. That's the first time I knew Bunda Inong.

I hadn't had the opportunity to meet her by myself but I'm in love with her since I opened her blog. She passed away two years ago, but people are still be able to read or even feel that she is alive. Her story teller ability was very amazing. She could attract people to enjoy and read her story from the beginning 'till the end at the zidansyifa blog. Lots of topics such as her family, cooking activities, and relatives parties are becoming more attractive on her hand. Her recipes collection on the dapurbunda blog can make people feels hungry until now on. Her poetry collection are amazing, check this out! I don't even dare to compare my writing skill with her. Truly, deeply and madly, her writing is very marvelous. Two thumbs up for her.

Today, it's a tribute for her. Her best friends and relatives are trying to make a good memory of her. They made a book about her stories and recipes with the title "Cooking With Love". It's as a tribute for a mom who love to share her knowledge to other Indonesian moms all over the world and who love her family and friends a lot. My writing is just want to make a tribute for her as someone who are really inspiring me for doing kitchen activities and to remember her as my 'virtual teacher' especially on the kitchen activities. She cooked everything with love and even been able to share her knowledge with love. She didn't dare that someone will steal her knowledge. How kind are you bun... you're my idol as a friend and teacher, even someday I really want to be a mother like you who always care of your family so nicely and lovely. You make every mom in the world is being proud to be herself.

You can also see the video of Cooking with Love book. I'm sorry, I can not download and provide this video to you as a video bar. I am not the best friend of technology ;-) . However, it is very nice to listen and watch this video, then you will know how is Bunda Inong Haris...you can feel it through the music, words and pictures that describe her a lot. (Honestly, I cried when I watched it). I wish I could see you bun...

May you rest in peace the angel of every Indonesian blogger "Bunda Inong Haris".
