Peach Gum Sweet Drink (Tong Sui) And Stewed Duck (Puppy Duck)

Yesterday morning (23rd day MCO), I went out to check for sunrise but saw only gray sky. Hubby went out to buy noodle for his breakfast and I boiled water to make hot milo and cocoa for our breakfast. I had bread with peanut and marmalade jam.
Light pink orchid from my garden.
Hubby's lunch: roast pork rice from our favourite stall.
I taxed 2 mouthfuls of rice and 2 pieces of roast pork from him.
Homemade peach gum sweet drink (tong sui)
Ingredients: peach gum, dried longan, aloe vela, mutt choe, and cane sugar.
I boiled a big pot and shared some with my neighbour.
Sunset sky at 6.20 pm.
Dinner
Stewed duck (puppy duck)
Ingredients: duck, wood fungus, ginger, garlic, fermented black beans, fermented soy beans, etc. The amount was divided into 3 portions: 1 for dinner, 1 for next day's breakfast, and 1 to be kept in the freezer.
Dinner for 2 people.
(stewed duck, blanched lettuce, and steamed rice)
Peach gum sweet drink for dessert.
Taste delicious whether warm or chilled.

Took this snapshot after a light shower.


Let my teaching fall on you like rain;
let my speech settle like dew.
Let my words fall like rain on tender grass,
like gentle showers on young plants.

  20. Is that considered a 'wild' orchid?

    Hmm come to think of it, my fav food places aren't within the stipulated 10km distance. I haven't been buying much cooked food at all.

    1. It looks like "wild" orchid but I am not sure. We can easily buy food within the 10 km.
