Mother's Day Dinner

I could not believe my ears when I asked mum what she wanted to eat for dinner tonight.

 

 

 

This was the first time I got mum a cake for Mother Day’s. Cake has never been part of our tradition when celebrating either birthday or any other occasion.

Gift

My nephew made the following for me during Sunday School today.

Mother’s Day at Canaanland Mission Center

Ivy Voon led P&W and played the guitar.

The Facilitator was Quek Lip Kie

The children performed skit and sang to their mothers.

The speaker was Elder Alice Thien.

We had lunch fellowship after the service.

 

Brekky

Jeff bought this in Peninsula Malaysia.

HK Prawn Noodle is one of my fav food.

 

Lunch

Brekky

There was overflowing of sauce in the Nasi Lemak and therefore it became too soggy.

Gifts from Macau

Uncle Hon and Uncle Phan brought the following gifts for us from Macau.

Dinner with Reles

Aunty Alice’s brothers-in-law and sister-in-law arrived from Macau late last night. They are staying at another relative’s condominium at Alam Damai Condominium, the same place where Mr. Quek Lip Kie and family are living.

Tonight one of their relatives, who is one of the co-owners of May Flower Restaurant invited Aunty Alice and I to have dinner with them.

Since he’s the one of the co-owners, the food he ordered were really special.

We did not have any rice but both Uncle Hon and Uncle Phan from Macau ordered rice cos they have to eat rice at least once a day.

Instead of noodles or fried rice at the end, we each had a bowl of porridge that came with a big prawn, a clam and a big slice of fish. Wow extremely yummy.

Birthday Gift

This was the birthday present Aunty Alice gave me before she went to JB last month.

I did not open it until tonight.

 

 She gave me a lunch box which is microwave proof, a very practical present.

Black Out

Was working hard when black out came at 10.09a.m.

Since I could not use the microwave to heat up food I brought from home for lunch, I had to asked the office boy to get for me the following Chicken Rice.

The current came back after 2.5 hours when I was having my lunch.

In the afternoon, I had a headache and it lingered until at night when it was time to attend Council Meeting. I had to text Lo Yi Ping to tell her I could not make it.

 

Backyard

Absent from Canaanland Mission Center

Woke up with a headache this morning and therefore decided to give church a miss.

Abundant Life are having their church retreat this weekend and was supposed to go up there this morning to join the Sunday morning service but Lily Tan could not find transport for me. She is going up with Chong Nyen Siong and family.

This is the first Sunday whereby Rev. James Wong conducts the Holy Communion as the Priest-in-Charge of Canaanland Mission Center.

Brekky

Today is public holiday for Wesak Day.

I had some work that needed to be done and therefore had decided to go back to work.

But before that, Lily Tan and I had an appointment to have brekky at the following coffee shop at Sinsuran. I parked my car at this area and she walked over from her work place in Segama to meet me.

When we arrived, we saw some HK gentlemen having their brekky outside the shop, underneath the covered shed.

We chose to sit inside the shop, which was good so that I could take some photos.

This was the stall where we ordered our brekky from. 

Altogether we were served three prawns in our Tom Yam Rice Noodles. Three prawns but cut into half each to make six halves.

We thought there was too much full cream milk inside the soup. The prawns tasted fresh though.

 

The following stall is also situated inside this shop. The lady used to operate this stall at Giant Kolombong Food Court. Before she moved here, I used to buy the Chicken Rice from her.

But after she moved, I had to search for an alternative. That was when I discovered Ho Kee Hainanese Chicken Rice opposite Giant Kolombong carpark entrance/exit and this Chicken Rice has become my favourite.

Nightmare

Had a nightmare this morning before waking up. 

Was in a foreign country. I didn't have much cash with me and I had to get to the bank before going to another destination. 

Time was running out and I was glad to wake up.

Dinner

Mum went on a roll with her cooking for dinner tonight.

So many fried stuff - fries, wantons, capsicums, eggplants, chicken breasts & chicken meat. All so yummy.
