Lunch & Dinner On Christmas Day 2020

Early morning on Christmas day, our friend called up to inform us that she will be buying breakfast for us. She bought savoury taro cake (woo tau koh) for us. After breakfast, we walked home and waited for the online Christmas Day celebration to start.

Christmas Day Lunch

I reheated the prawns and pineapple curry which I took out from the fridge.
A walnut sesame bread which I bought from Aeon Big Falim.
I removed the corn from the cob, steamed and mixed with a little salt and butter.
This was our Christmas Day lunch.
Happy to clear all the leftover items from the fridge.

Christmas Day Homecooked Dinner
Beef slices with young ginger slices and spring onions.
Blanched Chinese mustard (choy sum) given by a friend.
Drizzled with garlic oil and soy sauce.
Our homecooked dinner with steamed rice.
A bee busy at work in the Okra flower.
A dog crossing our path as we walked home from morning walk.
This bird perched on my neighbour's roof was chirping loudly as I was watering my plants in the garden.
Can you see the bird perched on the Bauhinia Kockiana branch? I think it must be trying to fish from my guppies pond. I have covered my guppies pond with a mosquito netting to protect them from the birds.


You are my mighty rock, my fortress, my protector,
the rock where I am safe, my shield, my powerful weapon,
and my place of shelter.
(Psalm 18:2, Contemporary English Version-CEV)

  9. The walnut bread looks good. You never see dogs on the loose in Hawaii. It is against the law.

    2. The dogs on the loose is a problem here. Some of them will chase after motorists and passers by.

    1. Lol! Yes, enough is enough. The birds have been feeding on the guppies without me knowing. By the time I came to know there were only 4 guppies left in the pond.
