It was drizzling in the early morning, the first day of lockdown (MCO 2.0). By the time the drizzling stopped, we looked at the clock and decided not to go out for morning walk.
7:00am
I went outside to take some snapshots.
Sunrise at 7:02am
8:09am
For the rest of the day, it was gray sky.
~~~~~
I had walnut and sesame bread which I bought from Aeon Big the day before. I told hubby that I will be eating bread and he only need to buy breakfast for himself.
Walnut & sesame bread.
I took out 3 pieces of the bread and spread butter and nutella chocolate and hazelnut jam on the bread.
Hubby is not a fan of bread, so he went out to buy fried rice vermicelli from our regular coffee shop.
Breakfast for 2 people on the 22 January, 2021 (1st day MCO 2.0).
My hibiscus plant is currently doing well.
I heated up 2 croissants which I also bought from Aeon Big in the oven. I pan fried some smoked bacon and hubby and I had a croissant sandwiched with smoked bacon.
I was thinking of what to cook for dinner when I received a call from our friend. She wanted to give us 2 glutinous rice dumplings and needed hubby to collect from her.
I re-steamed the glutinous rice dumplings, removed the wrappings and placed one of each plate. Hubby and I had dumpling for our dinner.
She bought 3 dumplings for RM10.
Very nice and flavourful.

yummy bakchang! my last bakchang was many months ago...
ReplyDeleteOur favourite bakchang is no more selling but now we found one pasar malam stall in my area. The size is slightly smaller but much cheaper, selling 3 bakchang for RM10.
DeleteYour skies are always fabulous Nancy, I don't find such beauty here :D Your hibiscus is a special variety with that red in the middle - stunning.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Riitta. Stay warm and stay.
DeleteThey all look so yummy! I want some dumplings :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteCan still get 3 dumplings for rm10? I always think the Rm7 or 8 is overpriced and there are those even higher.
ReplyDeleteI would also pick fried vermicelli over bread hehe.
We used to buy 1 dumpling for about RM5.60 to RM6. Recently, we came to know of this pasar malam stall in my area selling 3 for RM10. They are slightly smaller in size but the taste is good.
DeleteI so love the sky shots. They are very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rose.
Deletethe bread and the fried rice vermicelli look so good. I love you beautiful Hibiscus, the colors are gorgeous together. The dumplings look delicious too!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Martha.
Delete...I bet that the bacon sandwich hit the spot!
ReplyDeleteIt was great.
DeleteI love that type of bread, too. These days, we like Garlic Toast.
ReplyDeleteGarlic toast is also one of my favourite.
DeleteThe walnut and sesame bread sure looked good and I sure would enjoy all the other goodies you showed us today. WOW Nancy.

Thank you, Paul.
DeleteMãe passa a frente do s vosso s filhos do mundo inteiro e livramos desta pandemia em nome de vossos filho Jesus 👏👏👏
ReplyDeleteThank you, Maria.
Delete3 bakchangs for rm10 is a very good price. You like to eat nutella? I find it too sweet.
ReplyDeleteActually the nutella was for hubby as he wanted to try but later found it too sweet. Since I don't like to waste food, I will just have to finish it. I too find it too sweet for my liking.
DeleteYour sky shots are gorgeous! As does your breakfast! We are lucky that in our small village our grocery store bakes bread. Your hibiscus is gorgeous! Have a marvellously Happy Day!
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a great weekend.
DeleteThe bread looks delicious, so very tasty and tempting. Have a great weekend.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny.
DeleteYou have such nice skyshots even just outside your house.
ReplyDeleteYes, every morning when I sweep my porch area, I will check out the sky.
DeleteRice dumplings seem to taste good. Pretty skies
ReplyDeleteVery yummy.
DeleteSuch awesome photos
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo-Anne.
DeleteIt's good you can still go out and get breakfast even with MCO.
ReplyDeleteYou have lovely flowers and wonderful neighbors.
We can only move around within 10km from our home.
DeleteI need to check out hibicus plant as I know there is some in USA. Your yellow plant looks nice!! I nearly bought a hellebore the other day when shopping at Fred Meyer. They were outside as I was going indoors. I have both of them. I do need to plant them in the ground sometime. Both are in pots. Your food looks good. I need to make cookies this week as we are running low on what we have. Sorry to read you are in a lock down. We are still in same zone as before...waiting for restaurants to open for dine in as they did before virus hit. We went our lunch after church thru drive thru at Panera. Sandwich and soup for both of us. Then decided to get a vanilla cinnamon roll. We split it for our snack a bit later in afternoon. So delicious! I think I might see about get 1/2 dozen and see if they can put chocolate icing on it for my birthday that is coming up in mid February!! Have a good week!!!
ReplyDeleteI checked out hellebore and they are pretty flowers which I don't think I have seen before. We will be on the lookout for updates this week on whether the lockdown will be extended or move on to lesser restriction. We are also trying to help our local eateries struggling to stay on business at this time of pandemic. In case I forget, I want to wish you, "Happy and blessed Birthday to you". Have a great new week.
DeleteI love Hibiscus and surprisingly I have almost the same shade of Hawaiian hibiscus in my garden. It would be my pleasure if you join my link up party related to Gardening here at http://jaipurgardening.blogspot.com/2021/01/garden-affair-birds-attracting-plants.html
ReplyDeleteThank you, Arun for hosting. Have a great week.
