There has been no rain for the past week. Looks like the hot and humid days are back until the next monsoon season. Hopefully by end of this month or beginning of next month we will get some rain.
Sunrise at 7:20am.
This type of sun means the day will be hot.
My plants will be withering by midday.
Time to temporary hold back the sowing of seeds until the rain returns.
7:25am.

After morning walk, hubby and I drove out to buy breakfast. The coffee shop allows dine-in and the tables are well spaced out and some of the tables were along the 5 foot way. We decided to dine-in and choose one of the table along the 5 foot way.
Hubby ordered herbal duck wonton noodle.
We have been eating this noodle since my working days until now.
I ordered pan mee with hand torn noodle.
I enjoyed my breakfast very much.
Unsweetened black coffee for hubby.
Unsweetened coffee with evaporated milk (kopi-C) for me.
The coffee here is one of the best in town.
After leaving, I bought the above Nyonya kuih for our lunch.
Glutinous rice with kaya and glutinous rice with spicy dried shrimp.
Sunset Bells from my garden.
~~~~~
Our first dine-in dinner at a non air-con restaurant. The dishes available were limited and we ended choosing the following.
Sweet potato leaves with sambal dried shrimp paste.
Fragrant fried pork rib "foh yeem pai kuat".
Sweet sour black pomfret.
Nice and reasonably priced dinner that costs about RM46.20 for 4 people, including rice and hot water. We brought along our own Chinese tea.
Yes, everything else is worthless when compared
with the priceless gain of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.
I have put aside all else,
counting it worth less than nothing,
in order that I can have Christ.
(Philippians 3:8, The Living Bible-TLB)
Looks like life is back to normal now with dine in permitted. Food looks good especially the duck noodles and flavourful pork dish. Do you know is there any sop limiting max person to a table like in sg?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. Of course there is sop depending on the size of the table.
DeleteGosh, you eat so well, Nancy. I love that dinner and the kuih looks so good too. Great sunrise shots.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie. This is the first dine-in for dinner after many months of home cooking and takeaways.
DeleteThe food you all had at the restaurant looked really good especially the sweet and sour black pomfret. The pork ribs too! I miss nyonya kuih so much but I am on a low-sugar diet. Must control, no choice.
ReplyDeleteIt has been very hot here too, no rain. The aircon at my house is on all day long.
Thank you, STP. Finally we had rain yesterday and the day before. Last night the air conditioner took a rest and we just need the fan to sleep. Looks like the rainy season is back.
DeleteLong time did not taste herbal duck noodle. Used to enjoy that when I was staying in my previous place.
ReplyDeleteIt has been so hot lately. Really like in sauna. Hope we get more rain as monsoon is coming.
I think the rainy season is back. We had rain last 2 days and hopefully there will be rain as forecasted.
DeleteBelas e deliciosas fotografias.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e bom fim-de-semana.

DeleteGreetings and Salutations! I have never seen the plant sunset bells plant. It is quite lovely. I am hoping you will get a gentle rain soon. Cooler weather will come soon. Do you have humid weather there? Chicago area is noted for humid weather. Ugh! Lovely sky watch images. Take care.

Thank you, Dora.
DeleteSorry I am far behind in both blogging and commenting. We have had two short trips away where I have managed to get a number of bird and insect photos, but I have not had the time to go through the photos and they are piling up on me. Maybe with winter approaching and less garden work to do I will have time to sit at the computer.
ReplyDeleteLove the plants in your garden and the duck looks delicious.
Take care Diane
Hello Diane, nothing to apologize. It is good to take time off from blogging to enjoy your well deserved trips. Thank you for the beautiful photos you shared on your blog. Take care and stay safe.
DeleteCoffee looks great. What's the kopi tiam name. Thanks
