Birthday Lunch At August Healing, Ipoh

We woke up to a cloudy morning. 

Sunrise at 7:05am.

This was a Monday and most eateries are closed on Mondays. Our friend finally found one that was open and we made our way to August Healing at No. 18A, Jalan Theatre, Ipoh.

We need to go up these steps.

Our friend ordered the above quiche and

something that looks like a scone with dried herbs and served with cream.

Someone ordered latte.

I ordered Earl Grey tea (refillable) and

this tiramisu cake.

The birthday boy ordered the above with chocolate topping and

the house's special bagel with filling.

It was a treat by his aunt for the young man's belated birthday celebration.

Our one dish home cookd dinner.

I used the whole bearded chicken and a bottle of raisin wine to cook this "Drunken Chicken Soup". Other ingredients used: wood fungus, red dates, goji berries, and ginger. With this soup, we had mee sua chicken wine soup. This portion was enough for 2 dinners. 

One of our morning walk, we came across this dog sitting by the roadside.

He was sitting so upright and all the focus on what was ahead of him. I guess it might be waiting for its owner who had gone across the road to the recreational park.

Such a smart looking dog on guard, staying so focus.

Linking to Saturday's Critters.

For the Lord grants wisdom!

His every word is a treasure of knowledge and understanding.

He grants good sense to the godly - his saints.

He is their shield, protecting them and guarding their pathway.

He shows how to distinguish right from wrong,

how to find the right decision every time.

(Proverbs 2:6-9, The Living Bible-TLB)

Roast Chicken & 2 Slices Of Cake From Our Friends

Last week, just as I was about to prepare dinner, I received a call from our dear friend. She informed me that dinner is on the way to my house and told me not to cook.

In a short while, we received our dinner from Baker's Cottage.

The 1st item was a roast chicken.

The 2nd item was 2 slices of cake.

Thank you, dear friends for your kind thoughts and treat.

Sunrise at 7:05am on our morning walk.     I noticed that the tree we passed by that morning has started to bloom.

Google Lens identified this plant as Cassia Fistula or Golden Shower.

It is a joy to see these Golden Showers hanging down from the tree.

Linking to Wordless Wednesday & My Corner of the World.

Plant the good seeds of righteousness,

and you will reap a crop of my love;

plow the hard ground of your hearts,

for now is the time to seek the Lord,

that he may come and shower salvation upon you.

(Hosea 10:12, The Living Bible-TLB)

Steamed Fish, Blanched Broccoli & Porridge For Dinner

Looks like the rain is back. The weather is much cooler now and we only need to use the fan to sleep.

Sunrise at 7:20am.

Hubby stopped to buy a packet of mee goreng or fried yellow noodle and he requested for sambal to be added. RM2 for this noodle.

Hubby's breakfast: Fried noodle and milo.

My breakfast: Curry puffs and milo.

I bought 4 lemons at RM1.80 per piece.

We love to drink lemon juice with honey on hot days and it is soothing to the throat.

Lunch from our neighbour.

Chive dumplings or chai kuih.

Yam cake with lots of crushed peanuts.

2 tubs of tong sui (bubur cha cha).

Home cooked dinner.

Simple cooking to avoid sweating in the kitchen on a hot day.

Blanched broccoli, drizzled with garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce.

Steamed grouper fish slice with ginger strips.

Drizzled with garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce.

Plain rice porridge

Hubby likes to add fermented bean curd to his bowl of porridge.

This porridge is light and easy to digest.

Those with good appetite will need more than 1 bowl.

Laziness brings on sleep,

and an appetite for rest brings on hunger

(Proverbs 19:15, Easy To Read Version - ERV)

Light Lunch At August Healing, Ipoh

A friend went to this cafe and told me about it. So one afternoon we met up at the same cafe. First, she has to tell me the exact location because I can easily miss the place. It was on the first floor and a small sign above the entrance door. The address is at No.18A, Jalan Theatre, Taman Jubilee, Ipoh.

I know of a close friend of mine who would love this place but climbing up that flight of stairs will not be convenient for her. Okay, back to what we ordered for 4 of us to share.

A piece of House Quiche.

Croissant with smoked duck, omelette & cheese.

Cheese cake - celebrating hubby's birthday.

Thanks to our 2 dear friends.

Coffee for hubby and I.

Sorry, I can't remember the exact names of the coffee.

I think this is expresso (non sweet) for hubby.

And this is White Flat or something (non sweet) for me.

Linking to Friday Bliss, Skywatch Friday & Garden Affair.

For I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from his love.

Death can't, and life can't. The angels won't,

and all the powers of hell itself cannot keep God's love away.

Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow,

or where we are - high above the sky,

or in the deepest ocean - nothing will ever be able to

separate us from the love of God demonstrated

by our Lord Jesus Christ when he died for us.

(Romans 8:38-39, The Living Bible-TLB)
