• Raya Gaya Bilabila

    Disclaimer: Feeling weird seeing this post because you knew you didn’t see this post got published on March 2026? You are not alone. This post is actually published on August 2026, which, yes, this post is backdated. I just remembered I haven’t wrote about Bilabila Raya Gaya, and I wanted to honor that.

    1-2 weeks on the second half of Ramadan month, I had a slight debate with the Bilabila team on the IG DM section. They persisted, again, to send me a goodie box filled with merchandise from Bilabila as “our way to say thank you for your support!” Again and again, I told them that my support has always been there on its own because I need my daily morning latte fix and Ori Herbal Tea whenever KL decided to summon all of its seven suns on the sky. That said, they already got my address and phone number, so here it is, me wondering what did I do right in my previous life to have such an honor like this.

    I personally love how practical this gift box is! There were stickers, sampul duit Raya (custom envelopes for gift money), and tissues! Hari Raya is all about gathering and visiting, and one knows how we would need tissues to wipe crumbles from yummy cakes, rendang, or lontong during Raya open houses. The illustrations are so cute and so festive, too!

    Thank you so much, Bilabila, and selamat hari Raya!
