These days, the days are hot and sweaty. Some evenings we will get heavy downpour. Some evenings we only get to hear the rumbling of thunder and maybe a few drops of rain. When there is no rain, we will have to rely on the air-conditioner in our room to sleep.
Sunrise at 7:30am.
On this particular morning, I went to the garden to take a look at the plants. This bitter lettuce plant is growing taller than me.
My red and green algaenoma still surviving.

My sister-in-law's daughter and her friend dropped by to visit us on her way to Penang. My sister-in-law sent lots of goodies to us and the yellow dragon fruit and plums (below) were among them.
The first time I saw this yellow dragon fruit and its plant was when we visited a farm up on a hill in Gopeng. The red skin dragon fruit is more common and easily found. So far I haven't seen this yellow dragon fruit being sold anywhere. I was told that this fruit costs about RM20.
Yesterday, I washed the skin of the whole fruit, cut it into halves. I scooped out the flesh of one half and tasted it. It was very sweet and juicy and the seeds crunchy. I gave the other half to hubby to taste. Good thing the flesh is white because he refused to touch the red flesh dragon fruit. Lol!

My good friend Aislynn shared some snapshots of murals painted by her cousin sister Julie Chong. Julie Chong is a talented artist and she has painted many murals in other countries as well.
#1 mural, credited to Julie Chong.
For the first mural, I chose this from many others because I like the cute little birds.
Linking to Monday Mural.
Your words are what sustain me; they are food to my hungry soul.
They bring joy to my sorrowing heart and delight me.
How proud I am to bear your name, O Lord.
(Jeremiah 15:16, The Living Bible-TLB)
