Home Grown Green Amaranth & Nyonya Assam Prawns For Dinner

This was 2 Sundays ago. No morning walk because we were preparing to go to church.

Morning sky at 8:05am.

I received the following photos from my friend, Aislynn.

Using Google Lens, this bug was identified as Batocera rubus.

Common names: White spotted Longhorn, Mango Longhorn, Rubber Root Borer.

It has long legs and very long horns, much longer than its body.

Linking to Saturday's Critters.

Shout to the LORD, all the earth;

break out in praise and sing for joy!

Sing your praise to the LORD with the harp,

with the harp and melodious song.

with trumpets and the sound of the ram's horn.

Make a joyful symphony before the LORD, the King!

(Psalm 98:4-6, New Living Translation-NLT)

Chicken Rendang For Lunch At Classic Mealody Kopitiam, Falim

We came to know of Classic Melody Kopitiam through a friend. Hubby and I decided to give this place a try.

This high rise building is facing the Fair Mart, Falim.

Ample parking available here.

Chicken rendang with beehoon Siam @ RM15.90.

Chicken rendang pairs better with nasi lemak or just plain rice.

Beehoon Siam.

Chicken rendang, rich in taste and delicious.

I hope to return to try the curry noodle.

Lovely pink Mexican Petunia from my garden.

Oh, put God to the test and see how kind he is!

See for yourself the way his mercies shower

down on all who trust in him.

Cod Fish Fingers & Home Grown Vegetable For Lunch

It was a cool and breezy morning.

Setting out on our morning walk at 7:05am.

Sunrise at 7:15am.

Hill view at 7:16am.

We wanted to have breakfast in Menglembu but found the shop closed. Since we were there, we might as well choose to eat in one of the nearby coffee shop.

There are about 7 food stalls but I couldn't decide what to order. In the end I ended up with a packet of nasi lemak which was quite tasty.

Hubby ordered a bowl of curry noodle. The red oil looks spicy but the taste was good.

Simple home cooked lunch.

I harvested some home grown "nai pak choy". Due to the rainy season, small snails have appeared and were feeding on the leaves.

Plain blanched "nai pak choy".

I cooked 1 packet of instant noodle, dry tossed with the given seasoning.

Fried a packet of frozen cod fish fingers (Pacific West brand).

Kewpie roasted sesame dressing as dipping for the cod fish fingers and vegetable.

Lunch for 2 people.

Driving out to pick up our friends for dinner at about 6:40pm.

We were going to try the Hokkien mee or fat noodle (tai lok meen in Cantonese) which we haven't eaten for a long, long time. Hope it will not disappoint us.

As the Scriptures express it,

"See, I am sending Christ to be the carefully chosen,

precious Cornerstone of my church,

and I will never disappoint those who trust in him."

(1 Peter 2:6, The Living Bible-TLB)
