We went out for our morning walk and as usual, we stopped at our regular coffee shop for our favourite coffee. Lately, we see an increase in the early morning customers dining-in the coffee shop, which is a good sign that business is picking up. Walking home, I took snapshots of the sunrise and clear blue sky with white clouds.
Sunrise at 7:33am.
7:35am
7:40am
7:42am
7:44am
The current weather is a mixture of sunny days with intermittent rainfall.
White bougainvillea by the roadside in front of a residential house.
We also passed by this variegated purplish bougainvillea.
Both photos are from the same plant.
For this dinner, I managed to clear a tub of frozen prawns and a packet of vegetable acar.
Home grown long beans omelette.
Appetizing vegetable acar
Drunken Prawns Soup - very flavourful.
(Ingredients: Prawns, cauliflower, ginger strips, goji berries, spring onion, sesame oil and Chinese cooking wine)
Don't act thoughtlessly, but try to find out
and do whatever the Lord wants you to.
Don't drink too much wine, for many evils lie along that path;
be filled instead with the Holy Spirit and controlled by him.
(Ephesians 5:17-18, The Living Bible-TLB)

ReplyDeleteThank you, Claire.
DeleteThe bougainvillea is all so beautiful. And love that blue sky.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rose.
DeleteDrunken prawn soup :) guess it's called that due to the wine.
ReplyDeleteBougainvillea look wonderful and the variegated one is especially pretty.
Thank you, Margaret.
DeleteA very beautiful sky and flowering bush for your walk today. You made a wonderful meal too. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Joyful.
DeleteThe white bougainvillea is a dream! And this week too your sky photos look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Riitta.
Delete..."Drunken" Prawns Soup you say?
ReplyDeleteIt is because of the wine added to the soup. Lol!
DeleteThe sky shots are so beautiful! Love all the flowers and delicious food too. Have a great weekend Nancy. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Martha. Enjoy your weekend.
DeleteThe flowers are so unique, the colours. With prawns and acar, no need for the omelette, right? Could just stir fry long beans on their own if u must cook the long beans if they are going bad. Can finish all 3 dishes?
ReplyDeleteOmelette is the best way to clear the eggs and the long beans. No problem, all 3 dishes finished!
DeleteEl cielo se ve precioso, las flores y todo lo demás. Besos.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
DeleteGreetings and salutations from Illinois! Soup looks fantastic! Shrimp is so delicious to me lately. The morning sky must have added to the morning walk. Flowers are so pretty. I saw those in Florida not sure that they grow here. Be safe, Nancy.
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a wonderful weekend.
DeleteLovely pics. My mom was visiting a couple of weeks ago and we made vegetable achar as well.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Hena. Yummy vegetable achar.
DeleteBeautiful sunrise and the flowers are most beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe food looks amazing. I took a bite of each dish. Delicious.
Have a fabulous day and weekend, Nancy. ♥
Thank you, Sandee. Enjoy your weekend.
DeleteI love your beautiful skies, so optimistic. We don't have bougainvillea shrubs here so I'm enjoying yours. And the food!! I haven't had breakfast yet and I am hungrier than ever after reading your post. Have a great weekend!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Yogi. Have a great weekend too.
DeleteYour sky shots are spectacular. I love seeing it change over time. Love the blue and the color on the clouds. The bougainvillea is terrific, I've never seen a variegated one and your supper--WOW! Have a marvellously happy day!
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a happy weekend.
DeleteSome of the prettier sunrise shots I've seen in a while!
ReplyDeleteThank you and enjoy your weekend.
DeleteI would like to try your drunken prawn soup. Must be nice and go well with rice.

DeleteYes you are right it is now sunny days with intermittent rainy days as the Qing Ming Festival (Tomb sweeping Festival) is coming soon. I like all the dishes for your dinner, especially the long beans omelette and the soup. Yums!
ReplyDeleteI love to visit your blog, always beautiful sky shots, beautiful flowers, delicious dishes and interesting wild life (birds, insects, etc) to see.
Plus you end them so nicely with an appropriate bible verse.
Nice!
Thank you, Libby. It is easy to remember Qing Ming date because Easter is one day earlier.
