Home Grown Chinese Cabbage & Steamed Pork Rib

I have tried to grow some leafy green vegetables before but they didn't turned out well. There must be something which I didn't do right.

I didn't want to give up easily so I bought the above seeds to try again. I sowed the seeds in a small container. Once the seedlings sprouted, I prepared the vegetable patch. This time, I loosen the soil and mixed in with growth fertilizer and left it for a few days. We were in the midst of rainy days. After the seedlings have grown the 2nd leaves, I transferred them to the vegetable patch.

I finally have success in growing leafy vegetables!

Freshly harvested for our dinner.

Washed and broken into pieces, ready to be cooked.

Home grown Chinese cabbage simply sauteed with garlic and salt.

Pork ribs steamed with fermented black beans, chopped garlic and ginger, chilies, dark and light soy sauce, salt and sugar to taste.

Satisfying dinner for a rainy evening.

This house is next to the Antong coffee mill. Dr. Sun Yat Sen and Chen Cuifen stayed here when they were in Taiping.

Portraits and other artifacts are kept in the upper room. The ground floor is used for coffee tasting and selling of coffee products.

For if you give, you will get!

Your gift will return to you in full and overflowing measure,

pressed down, shaken together to make room for more,

and running over. Whatever measure you use to give - large or small -

will be used to measure what is given back to you."
