New Sport Equipment At the Recreational Park

We haven't been walking in the recreational park since the pandemic. We now prefer to walk around the shops. There will be less people around in the early morning as most of the shops have not opened yet. On morning, we decided to take a detour to the recreational park to check out a new sport equipment.

We were interested in this new thing above.

Looks like it is built for those interested in climbing exercises.

This is more for the older kids.

Are these for training for wall climbing?

I hope this equipment will not be under utilize and become a white elephant.

That morning, no one was using this.

A public toilet at the recreational park built in 2019 before the pandemic. It is now opened to the public after the pandemic was declared as endemic.

A dancing exercise group with music.

A dog can be seen lazing on the grass enjoying the company and music.

Another 3 dogs sleeping to the sound of music and exercise instructions.

After morning walk, we drove out to town for breakfast at Yee Fatt Dry Curry Noodle, Kampar Road, Ipoh.

Hubby's dry curry noodle with chicken curry and bbq pork.

That morning, I don't know what happened to me. Instead of ordering the usual dry curry noodle, I ordered curry noodle (wet version). You can see the layer of oil floating on top of the curry noodle. It was my own mistake and I didn't enjoy my breakfast that morning.

This is the only place that I will order the dry curry noodle.

I hope I will not repeat the same mistake again.

After sky at 2:40pm. Expecting rain any time soon.

Another lazy day for me, so didn't cook dinner.

We went to WK Claypot Chicken Rice for dinner.

This round, we ordered the ready cooked dishes with white rice.

Stewed prok rib with fermented black beans.

Fried Senangin fish or Threadfin fish.

Blanched baby choy sum.

Thanks to a friend who shared this photo of elephants when he visited the Taiping Zoo with his daughter.

Feed the flock of God; care for it willingly, not grudgingly;

not for what you will get out of it but

because you are eager to serve the Lord.

Don't be tyrants, but lead them by your good example,

and when the Head Shepherd comes,

your reward will be a never-ending share in his glory and honor.

Simple Dinner At WK Claypot Chicken Rice, Taman Silibin Ria, Ipoh

On this particular morning, a beautiful sunrise greeted us when we started out on our morning walk. 

#1 - Beautiful sunrise in spite of the dark clouds at 7am.

#2 - 7:05am

#3 - 7:10am.

#4 - 7:15am.

After morning walk, we had breakfast at one of our regular coffee shop. Ordered shredded chicken noodle (kai si hor fun). I think the boss must have forgotten to add the reddish prawn oil to the noodle because they looked pale. Business was good that morning and the boss was managing the stall all by himself. Hubby ordered Chinese tea and I ordered Herbal tea.

Reached home at about 8:10am. View of Kledang Hill.

That late afternoon, I received a new keyboard. Younger son bought a better keyboard for me to replace the previous one when he heard that some of the keys were not functioning well. The previous keyboard is now connected to the laptop for easy typing.

I didn't cook that evening, so we had dinner at WK Claypot Chicken Rice. We thought of ordering claypot chicken rice but the wait was quite long. So we ordered ready cooked dishes with white rice.

Fried fish.

Pork belly with wood fungus and carrot.

Sweet sour mustard green.

These dishes are like home cooked dishes.

Hubby paid so I don't know the exact price of each dish.

I've blotted out your sins; they are gone like the morning mist at noon!

Oh, return to me, for I have paid the price to set you free.

Mixed Pork Porridge With Fried + Steamed Fish & Wonton Mee

There are times when we do not know what we want to eat for lunch. After a few suggestions, we finally settled for porridge at Restoran Kar Heng, Ipoh.

We ordered a plate of fried fresh water fish.

Our friends ordered this steamed fresh water fish.

Both the fried and steamed fish were very nice.

This is the mixed pork porridge (chu chap chook).

Took this pic of a yellow butterfly on a sunny morning.

We meet up with the same friends for dinner at Cheong Kee Wan Tan Mee in Buntong.

I usually order the dry version but this time, I wanted the soup version.

Wat Tan Hor, Assam Laksa & Fried Fish With Nyonya Assam Paste

The day started with a nice sunrise.

Finished our morning walk early at about 7:30am.

Drove out to Yummy Food Garden in Menglembu Industrial area for breakfast.

Hubby ordered flat rice noodle with egg gravy (wat tan hor).

I ordered assam laksa. I have no problem eating assam laksa for breakfast.

Love the generous amount of fish meat in the laksa.

When I can't have the Penang assam laksa, this one will do for me.

~~~~~

Home cooked dinner.

Fried grouper fish meat and topped with Nyonya assam paste.

Beansprout sauteed with home grown Chinese chives, chopped garlic and salt.

2 salted eggs.

We ate brown rice porridge with the above dishes.

Simple, satisfying and filling.

Feed the hungry! Help those in trouble!

Then your light will shine out from the darkness,

and the darkness around you shall be as bright as day.

And the Lord will guide you continually,

and satisfy you with all good things, and keep you healthy too;

and you will be like a well-watered garden,

like an ever-flowing spring.

Fried Noodle For Dinner At Restoran Wai Wai Ipoh

This was a Sunday evening. There is a new place in Ipoh Garden that many has been talking about and has been receiving mostly good reviews. The only drawback is the waiting time. Someone suggested that we should go and check out this new place. We reached the place at about 6:35pm.

Just as expected, the place was full. Since there were only 4 of us, we didn't have to wait long for a table.

We were given a table right in front of the entrance. We gladly took our seats and we were told that the waiting time for the food will take quite awhile.

We didn't mind the wait as our tummies were not growling with hunger yet. Lol!

The first dish to arrive at our table: Crunchy fried small fishes dipped in batter with Thai chili sauce as dipping sauce. This will keep us occupied while waiting for the next dish.

We enjoyed munching on the above. Some were crunchy while some were not quite crunchy. Probably needed more frying.

Flat rice noodle & crispy fried rice vermicelli in egg gravy (wat tan).

If I am not mistaken, this is Claypot Sang Mee.

It tasted more or less like the wat tan noodle above.

And the last was this fried rice vermicelli.

We ordered small portion for all the noodles. Somehow, the 4 of us managed to finish what we ordered. I don't have the receipt so I am not able to share the price of the food.

Haven't you yet learned that your body is the home

of the Holy Spirit God gave you, and that he lives within you?

Your own body does not belong to you.

For God has bought you with a great price.

So use every part of your body to give glory back to God

because he owns it.

(1 Corinthians 6:19, The Living Bible-TLB)
