Update On My One And Only Air Plant

Hubby and I didn't go for morning walk yesterday morning (98th day MCO) because I had a date with my girlfriend. It is the time of the month that my girlfriend and I make a point to go out to pay our bills and had breakfast together.
Sunrise at 7:32 am
My girlfriend came to pick me up at about 8.30 am.
After we have finished paying all our bills and etc., we both had pan mee (noodle) for breakfast. This is one of my favourite noodles.

Update on my one and only air plant.
As I was watering my plants, I noticed that my air plant is flowering again. I bought a single air plant from the plant nursery and posted about it in August 2018. If you are interested, you can click here to read the post.
From one mother plant, it has multiplied into many 3 baby plants called air plant pups. The mother plant is the smallest in size and the pups are very much bigger than the mother plant. So far, I haven't tried separating the pups from the mother plant. As you can see from the above picture, 2 air plant pups have flowered.

Dinner
I was busy clearing my front porch area and was too tired to cook dinner.
Hubby went out to the nearby shop to buy fried rice.
I blanched the green veggie which a friend gave to us. I have finished the garlic oil, so I used extra virgin olive oil and oyster and soy sauce.
Simple and filling dinner for 2 people.


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.
For wisdom and truth will enter the very center of your being,
filling your life with joy.
(Proverbs 2:6-10, The Living Bible-TLB)

Pork Rib Wonton Noodle, Bak Chang & Simple Home Cooked Dinner

Our favourite wonton noodle stall was closed when the movement control order was implemented. On Sunday night just before we retired for the night, I mentioned to hubby that about this wonton noodle. So early next morning, we cancelled our morning walk and drove out to town for the wonton noodle.

Due to the need for social distancing, we had to queue for about 15 minutes to be seated. We were seated 3 people to a table. Hubby ordered herbal tea and I ordered barley drink. We both ordered wonton noodle with pork rib and pork dumplings plus sui kow.
 Wonton noodle with sourish pork rib.
 1 sui kow and 5 pork dumplings (wontons) in soup.
 Feeling satisfied after this yummylicious breakfast.
 While I was watering the plants with a water hose, this insect came and settle on my hand.
~~~~~
Lunch
 Steamed 2 glutinous rice dumplings (bak chang) for lunch
 Bak chang made with glutinous rice, black eyed beans, pork belly and salted egg yolk.
~~~~~
Dinner
 Sauteed home grown snake beans with prawns and garlic.
 Steamed minced pork with preserved vegetable (dong choy).
 Rice porridge with salted egg for hubby.
 Plain rice porridge for me.
 Simple home cooked dinner for 2 people
My neighbour blessed us with this tray of agar-agar.
A ceramic lampstand and a nice stoneware tea set.
Took this snapshot at one of the restaurants we visited.


No one lights a lamp and hides it!
Instead, he puts it on a lampstand to give light
to all who enter the room.
(Luke 11:33, The Living Bible-TLB)

Chinese Rojak And Tofu Fa For Lunch

On Sunday morning (14th Sun under MCO), hubby woke me up at about 7 am. I looked at the clock and we still have time to go for a short walk before the online Sunday worship starts.
Morning sky at 7:10 am
Starting out on our walk.
We go this way facing the Kledang Hill and that is hubby with a backpack. He carries a backpack comes in handy in case we buy some fish or veggie from the roadside stalls.
Saw this black bird with white breast on a power cable.
It was making a lot of loud sound.
~~~~~
We went to our regular coffee shop to have a cup of unsweetened black coffee and some fried stuffed bean curd sheet. Our friend bought some green vegetable which was selling cheap in the wholesale market and gave us some. Hubby placed the vegetable in the backpack and we walked home.
On her way home, a friend dropped by to give me this preserved vegetables "dong choy" in a Chinese jar. So kind of her to remember me.
~~~~~
Lunch
Hubby went out to buy Chinese rojak (fruit salad).
And 2 tubs of soya bean curd or tofu fa with ginger sugar syrup.
Afternoon sky at 3 pm.
Puffy clouds before the evening rain.

He covers the sky with clouds; he supplies the earth with rain
and makes grass grow on the hills.
(Psalm 147:8, New International Version-NIV)
