Our day started with a lovely morning.
No rain or drizzling with clear sky at 6:46am.
On the opposite side, clear blu sky over Kledang Hill.
The birds on these branches were loudly chirping away.
Sunrise at 7:12am.
On the opposite side.
Misty Kledang Hill.

What to cook for dinner?
I have prawns and I also have blended chili paste in the freezer. I wanted to cook something which I haven't cooked for a long time.
Assam Sambal Prawns with lots of shallots and onions. It turned out a bit spicy, sourish and sweet. An appetizing combination which I love.
Assam sambal prawns would be great with steamed rice but we ran out of rice that evening. I was lazy to take the car out just to buy the rice so we ended up having noodle with the assam sambal prawns.
A baby pineapple from one of my pineapple plants.
Pineapple plants take a long time to fruit. Sometimes, it takes more than a year.
But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruits in our lives:
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness, and self-control.
There is no law against these things!
(Galatians 5:22-23, New Living Translation-NLT)
Beautiful skies! So can you make a new pineapple from the old one?
ReplyDeleteI grow pineapple using the tops of the store bought pineapples.
DeleteOh dear! No rice! The sambal prawns would go so much better with rice. I've a big pineapple plant - they say must wait for two years. June next year - see if there will be any fruit or not. LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteSometimes the pineapple plants take a long time to bear fruit. I wonder how those farmers speed up their fruiting time.
DeleteAssam Sambal Prawns look really appetizing and flavourful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteFabulous sky photos and good food. Love the baby pineapple! Have a great day, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThank you, Valerie.

ReplyDeleteMe too.
DeleteNoodles with assam sambal prawns taste absolutely delicious! No need to be rice. Oh good, got a baby pineapple! Hope it grows big big for you to harvest. How long have you planted this pineapple?
ReplyDeleteFor sure the pineapple plant is more than a year, maybe more than that. I lost track of the time.
DeleteOh, blogger.... just said I´ve never seen a baby - pineapple and that we love the fruit on as Toast Hawaii or on Pizza!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Iris. I love Hawaiian pizza too because it has pineapple in it.
DeleteYour pineapple grows very well.
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a good week.

DeleteBeautiful skies. I think #6 is my favorite. I like the mist against the mountains!
ReplyDeleteThank you and Merry Christmas.
DeleteThe Misty Kledang Hill photo is superb! The same applies to the photo of the tiny birds chirping on the dry, tree branches.
ReplyDeleteI like your oval shaped plates with the rich food on it, and the lovely pink baby pinneaple.
Wishing you Happiness and Joy in the upcoming New Year!
Thank you, Duta. Happy New year to you too.
DeleteGlorious skies.
ReplyDeleteThank you, William.
DeleteI would like one day to try the preparations you show. The pineapple grows in areas of high temperature, therefore where you live must be very hot
ReplyDeleteThank you, Norma. Ours is a tropical climate with plenty of sun and rain.
DeleteFor Christmas Eve dinner tonight, my wife made shrimp with noodles and a cream sauce. So we had kind of similar meals.
ReplyDeleteI always love your skies and wow, you have a pineapple plant.
Merry Christmas to you and your family!!
Thank you, Yogi. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
DeleteGreat looking skies! Merry Christmas to you!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Linda. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Deletethe baby pineapple is cute and the sky photos are stunning. Finland is covered with snow and it is very cold - but a beautiful Winter Wonderland. Happy Holidays Nancy.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Riitta. I can imagine a beautiful Winter Wonderland and a White Christmas. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours.
DeleteBaby pineapple, that's interesting about how long they take to grow.
ReplyDeleteYour sky shots are always pretty.
Thank you, Mimi. Happy New Year.
DeleteMe encanta la piña. Besos.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
DeleteI remember my pineapple plant only fruited after 2 years. See, you're at least double as good at me at gardening!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Stacy. I think mine is also about 1-2 years.
DeleteI have tried growing pineapple from the tops of pineapple , Although plant grows well still it does not come up to fruiting . Thanks for joining in Garden Affair.
ReplyDeleteThis will be the 3rd fruit from my home grown plants. Thank you for hosting.
