Dinner For 2 At Huan He Lai Seafood Restaurant, Ipoh

This was during one of the warmer days.
Sunrise at 7:20 am
When the weather is warm, I have to water the plants well.
My Bouhinia Kockiana blooming abundantly.
These bright flowers help brighten up the place.
Some passers-by even stopped to admire, inquire and ask for cuttings.

This was another lazy day for the cook (me), so we had dinner at Huan He Lai Seafood Restaurant, Desa Rishah, Ipoh.
Green Amaranth veggie cooked with 3 types of eggs.
Deep fried fragrant pork
Steamed Tilapia fish with spicy fermented bean sauce.
Dinner incl. 2 white rice (small) & drinks for 2 people - RM 44.20
*     *     *     *     *
The following items are found in the National Museum.
Dragon Cannon - shaped like a dragon is well known in Brunei and elsewhere in Borneo.
Copper Water-Container (Cerek)
This was used as currency or for barter trade in Borneo, especially in Sarawak. It is decorated with motifs showing both Chinese and local influence. A dragon is carved one each side of the cerek. The lid has a handle in the shape of an elephant.

They can see that you are a letter from Christ, written by us.
It is not a letter written with pen and ink,
but by the Spirit of the living God;
not one carved on stone, but in human hearts.
(2 Corinthians 3:3, The Living Bible-TLB)
