After about 4 days without rain, I get to get some sunrise clicks yesterday morning.
7:10am - starting out on our morning walk.
7:16am.
For yesterday's breakfast, I ordered grouper fish meat with rice vermicelli. Normally, this fish noodle will come with salted sour vegetable which I enjoy very much. Since I am not suppose to take sour food, I asked to omit the salted sour vegetable.The fish is fresh and the soup is sweet.
Looking east, this was yesterday's evening sky at 7:30pm.

Today's breakfast after morning walk.
I ordered pork noodle and I requested for wheat flour (mee sua).

I am feeling much, much better today and I have the energy and mood to do some tidying of the outside garden.
This is my one and only bougainvillea plant and it does need some trimming. This is an old photo and it has grown into a bush. Initially, I thought of just giving a trim to make it a bit like a mushroom top. But after I started to trim, I found that underneath the leaves were a lot of dead and rotten twigs. So I started to remove and clear all the dead twig and the end result is a bald top for my bougainvillea plant. Lol!
The trunk has shown sign of rot due to the rainy season and hopefully by removing all the leaves and branches, the sun will put a stop to the rot. Bougainvillea is a sturdy plant and I hope new branches will appear soon.
After all the hard work, we went to Restoran Tuck Kee to buy roasted duck rice for lunch. I asked for breast meat rice @ RM7. I wanted to order for Chinese New Year and was told that the new price list for 2023 will only be out in January.

Oooo... so much grouper fish! Looks good, not like the one here. Just 3 or 4 slices, drowned in a whole lot of soup...and SO expensive, almost RM20.00!!! How much was yours?
ReplyDeleteActually, there are only 3-4 pieces but thick pieces. It costs only RM10.
DeleteSo yummy :D Very cool ! Have a great 2023!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kinga. Happy New Year 2023 to you and yours.

DeleteAround here the bougainvillea is known by the name of trinitaria or Santa Rita.
ReplyDeleteTrinitaria means three and the plant has three bracts (colored leaves) that cover the true flower, which is white and tiny, the bracts can be pink, fuchsia, white, orange and I think they also occur in purple . They have medicinal use, it is used mainly in cases of respiratory conditions such as cough, asthma, bronchitis and flu. It also works for constipation and fever. For its treatment, the flowers and bracts are used, it is boiled and the infusion is administered orally.
Thank you, Norma for sharing interesting information on bougainvillea. Over here it is mostly grown as a garden plant.
DeleteI'm glad you're feeling better, Nancy. You know how I love your food.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and rest of the week. ♥
Thank you, Sandee. Have a fabulous weekend.
DeleteKnowing you, this plant will come back and look beautiful in no time. I love noodles, and all the dshes look so good. Has it been hard to stick to this diet? Is it helping?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny. I am hoping the plant will recover in no time. As for me, the bland and soft diet has help and I am on the road to recovery. Thank you for your concern.
DeleteMe gusta el pescado. Besos.

ReplyDeleteThis is my comfort noodle soup whenever I am not feeling well.
DeleteThank you, Francisco.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nancy. Good to hear you are feeling better. Love your grouper fish Mee Hoon. Makes me feel like eating it too. Bunga kertas is hardy so hopefully the rot would be stopped by the sun. Will you be checking on it often?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. I will be checking on it daily when I water my plants every morning.
DeleteI do hope you feel better and can eat your usual foods soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mimi. I am almost back to normal.
