Pumpkin With Dried Shrimp & Mixed Treasures Stew

The morning sky was dark and looked like it was going to rain any time.

This was just before 8am.

Sunlight shining down through the dark cloud.

Dinner for 2.

I bought 1 whole small size pumpkin just before the Chinese New Year. One and half months later, the pumpkin was still good.

Pumpkin cooked with chopped garlic and dried shrimps. I don't have spring onions, so I cut some Chinese chives from my garden and added to the pumpkin. I love this dish and I alone ate more than half the amount.

There were some items which I didn't finish using and were kept in the fridge, so I gathered them together to cook the above mixed treasures stew. The treasures in the dish: some arrowheads (ngaku), bony parts of a duck, some pork tendon, carrot, wood fungus, bean curd sticks, and a small can of abalone. There was more than enough to share with my neighbour.

Our yummy dinner with steamed brown rice for 2 people.

From my garden.

I am still waiting for this pineapple to ripen.

This tiny pineapple seems to be taking a long time to ripen and there are some baby shoots coming out from the base of the pineapple.

each has turned away to follow his own downward road.
