For the past few weeks, the sky has been mostly overcast and gray.
Break of dawn at 6:56am
Just before we start our morning walk.
Passing by this leafless tree at 7:15am with birds singing above us.
Sunrise at 7:26am.

We detoured to the nearby shop (one of our regulars) for breakfast.
I ordered hand torn pan mee.
We went to visit my father-in-law's grave a day after All Souls Day in Tambun. On the way back I took this snapshot of the Deepavali decoration when we stopped at the traffic light.

Home cooked dinner.
I cooked taro rice using brown rice, diced taro, chopped shittake mushroom, chicken breast meat, dried shrimps, garlic and onions. I divided the rice into 3 portions. I gave 1 portion to my neighbour, 1 portion for dinner and last portion for next day dinner.
Blanched 1 head broccoli, drizzled with garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce.
Children at play mural.
I took this snapshot in 2014.

Dear children, keep away from anything
that might take God's place in your hearts.
Amen. Sincerely, John.

Love the birds. I can nearly hear them.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, the broccoli looks yummy.
Happy mural!
Thank you, Iris.
DeleteI'd go for your hubby's mixed pork noodles, not so into pan mee. My girl fried broccoli too the other day when she took over the kitchen - blogpost on it coming soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you, STP.

Thank you, Lovely.
DeleteYour taro rice is so tasty! The broccoli balance the taste of the taro rice. This morning I ate hand torn pan Mee too. Saw many people dining in at the coffee shop but I bought takeaway. Love your photo 2 of the birds on the bare trees against the grey white sky. Gives a very wintry 🥶 feel. Can be used as a Christmas card. Are you getting ready for Christmas now?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. Nothing special for Christmas except to attend church.
DeleteIt seems winter is coming to your part of the world with the leafless tree.
ReplyDeleteThe taro rice looks appetizing and I love the broccoli.

DeleteI like how you season your broccoli. I should do the same. Usually, I just add salted butter to steamed broccoli.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Gigi. Hope you will enjoy the new way of seasoning.
DeleteThe taro brown rice looks delicious and so does your broccoli! Love that mural!
