Christmas Cookies & Flowers From A Friend

The following sky photos were taken in the 1st week of this month, December. 

Morning sky at 7:20am.

That morning, we get to see the sunrise even for a short while.

Hubby and I love to eat this messy dry colour noodles.

I will always order flat rice noodle (koay teow) while hubby will order the yellow noodle.

The thick curry gravy almost completely covered the noodle.

I need to stir up the noodle just to check if I had the right plate of noodle.

This was about 1 week later.

This was at 6:50am.

The sky was dark but it didn't rain so we had our morning walk.

My stomach was not feeling well for a few days so I went to the government clinic near my area. While waiting to get my medication, I saw this little girl looking at the Christmas decoration. For your info, my stomach is feeling much better now. Doctor's advice: refrain from spicy and sour food.

~~~~~

So for the time being, I will be a good girl.

For next morning's breakfast, I ordered 1 popiah (spring roll) to share with hubby. What about the chili on the popiah? Fortunately, it was more sweet than spicy.

The popiah tastes good. A must order on our next visit.

I ordered shredded chicken noodle or kai si hor fun.

This is quite good but not as good as our regular stall in my area.

Hubby ordered prawn noodle (combination of yellow noodle and rice vermicelli).

Yesterday, a close friend drop by to give me something.

I received these 2 flower bouquets from her. They are not real flowers. She has a few so she gave me 2.

She suggested that I can use the flowers for decoration.

I decided to decorate my mother's mother-in-law tongue plants with the yellow flowers.

She also gave me the above Christmas cookies.

Nine pieces of yummy cookies or berry tarts with a star in the centre.

Seek him who created the Seven Stars and the constellation Orion,

who turns darkness into morning and day into night,

who calls forth the water from the ocean and

pours it out as rain upon the land.

The Lord, Jehovah, is his name.

Home Made Ubi Bingka & Dinner At Restoran Mun Ji

These days, I am usually out for morning walk while it is still dark or there was no lovely sunrise to catch.

Sunrise at 6:52 am. This was last Friday.

We caught this sunrise because we overslept.

Yellow bells or Tecoma stans by the roadside, planted by one of the nearby residents.

I still have some frozen cassava roots in my freezer. I took out one tub to thaw to make ubi bingka or cassava root cake.

Freshly baked ubi bingka from the oven. I couldn't wait for it to be cooled before cutting because the smell was too good. I took a knife and cut the side to taste it. Once cooled, it was packed into 4 portions. I kept one for ourselves and 3 portions given away to friends and neighbour.

A friend dropped by and gave some of her cookies for me to enjoy.

Dinner with friends at Restoran Mun Ji, Menglembu.

This was 3 days before the return of CMCO and business was good.

We have to wait to be seated and again waited for the food to be served.

Our favourite fish curry with assorted veggie in clay pot.

Deep fried pork rib.

Green Amaranth with three types of eggs.

(salted egg, century egg (black), and nornal chicken egg)

There are three stately monarchs in the earth - no, four:

The lion, king of the animals. He won't turn aside for anyone.

The peacock. The male goat. A king as he leads his army.
