Pork Noodle, Shredded Chicken Noodle & Blessing From Garden.

No morning walk and no sunrise to share because it was raining in the early morning. So we drove out to our regular coffee shop for breakfast.

Unsweetened milo (milo-O) for me and Chinese tea for hubby.

Pork noodle (yee mee) for hubby.

Shredded chicken noodle (kai si hor fun) for me.

The seller added chicken liver because he thought the noodle was for hubby. I don't like liver, so I passed all the lives pieces to hubby.

~~~~~

Back home in my garden.

I harvested 2 purple brinjals and 1 fig.

I harvest 4 custard apples but threw one away because it was over ripe and had gone mushy.

I also harvested these green brinjals.

I will be sowing some seeds since I have cleared away most of the old plants.

These are the rewards that make my gardening worthwhile.

Sunset at 7:25pm.

 Hallelujah!

O servants of Jehovah, praise his name.

Blessed is his name forever and forever.

Praise him from sunrise to sunset!

For he is high above the nations;

his glory is far greater than the heavens.

Minced Pork & Fish Paste Patties For Dinner

When I woke up, I heard raindrops on the awning roof. I waited until just before 7am before I went out to check if it was still drizzling. No more drizzling, so it was clear for our morning walk.

Returning from our morning walk at 7:55am.

Morning sky at 7:58am.

Breakfast

Chinese crullers, garlic bread and pork noodle for breakfast.

Chinese crullers at RM1.10 per piece.

Garlic bread at RM2.

Pork noodle

Fragrant Gardenia bloom from my garden.

Rice noodle (loh shu fun) on the left and wat tan hor on the right.

This was our lunch before we went out to town.

Ipoh padang (field) at old town.

The biggest flag and tallest flag pole in town.

~~~~~

Dinner.

Fried minced pork plus fish paste patties.

Sweet Thai chili sauce.

The evening was warm and we didn't want any rice.

So, this was our dinner, nothing else.

While I was watering my garden, I spotted this grasshopper.

A close up of the grasshopper.

First time a grasshopper feeding on my okra (ladies finger) leaf.

Normally, grasshoppers leave the okra leaves alone.

Since it didn't do much damage, I left it alone. I gave it a little shower with my garden hose and it hopped onto the long beans vine.

Linking to Saturday's Critters.

We can make a large horse turn around and

go wherever we want by means of a small bit in his mouth.

And a tiny rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever

the pilot wants it to go, even though the winds are strong.

So also the tongue is a small thing,

but what enormous damage it can do.

A great forest can be set on fire by one tiny spark.

(James 3:3-5, The Living Bible-TLB)

Dim Sum Breakfast & Winter Melon Noodle Soup For Dinner

Yesterday (104th day MCO), we met up with our friends for the first time since MCO was implemented. After watering my plants, we went to pick up our friends from their house.

Morning sky at 8:10 am - driving to our friends' house.

Thanks to our friends for this dim sum breakfast.

After breakfast, we sent our friends home. Our friends have prepared some fruits for us and we were invited to stay back to enjoy the fruits.

Lunch

We had chilled leftover winter melon and aloe vera sweet drink for lunch.

~~~~~

Dinner

With the 2nd half of the winter melon given by a friend, I used it to cook soup. Ingredients for the soup: Winter melon, aloe vera, carrot, pork ribs, red dates and goji berries.

I cooked yee mee or pre-fried noodle in boiling water and we had winter melon noodle soup for dinner.

For added flavour, we had this chili and garlic crisp condiment.

Beautiful hibiscus from one of our morning walks.

I can't remember when I saw these ceramic sculptures.

Remember me too, O Lord,

while you are blessing and saving your people.

Let me share in your chosen ones' prosperity and

rejoice in all their joys, and receive the glory you give to them.

Cooking Resumes After My Kitchen Has Been Restored

Yesterday was Tuesday, 28th day MCO, the last day of 2nd phase MCO. Tomorrow begins the 3rd phase MCO (15th - 28th April).

Just in time to catch the sunrise at 7:22 am

Pre-fried noodle (yee mein) in soup - hubby's take away breakfast taken with iced milo. My breakfast was just plain Jacob's original cream crackers taken with hot cocoa.

 Sweet fragrant Gardenia bloom from my garden. 

~~~~~

Our kitchen was closed for one and half day. After putting everything in the kitchen back into order, I prepared an early dinner because both of us skipped lunch. I boiled soup with cabbage, carrot and meat.

Hubby's dinner: Rice, cabbage soup and leftover waxed duck and Chinese sausage.

 My dinner: Cabbage soup, 1 hard boiled egg and oat porridge.

Happy to see my Gardenia plant bearing new buds.

Linking to Wordless Wednesday & My Corner of the World.

Let us get up early and go to the vineyards

to see if the grapevines have budded,

if the blossoms have opened,

and if the pomegranates have bloomed.

There I will give you my love.
