    I wonder why penguins? Just kidding. :) I like penguins it's fun watching them get fed.

    The snail in my picture is there because the restaurant is famous for serving snails or escargot as the call them in France.

Hayley and I

I went to Taiping as I was sending my mum home. Well, I never thought that I would be meeting Hayley instead. Initially, I had wanted to meet both Yan and Yvonne but they were working yesterday. Yan gave me Hayley's phone number when I asked her if Hayley was working too. So when I reached Taiping, I messaged Hayley that I would try to locate her place as she had given me her address. I didn't think I would be able to find it. So to be on the safe side, I called her when I reached somewhere near her place. She directed me and I found it..  So nice to meet a new blogger friend and her baby. Aden is so cute! On the way to Hayley's place, I remembered this temple  where I used to visit when I was young to watch the Chinese opera show.

This friend of mine, is a kind person. When he has any second hand Brooks shoes, he will call me and ask if I want them. My answer is definitely 'Yes!' He is a dealer in Brooks shoes and he always likes to try on different kinds of shoes. After that, he would just sell them away cheaply. Many months ago, I had bought two pairs from him and recently, my husband told me that those two pairs were almost worn down.  So I had to ask this friend if he had any second hand shoes. He told me that he had this very pair which he only wore it once and he's selling it at RM180. Grabbed it and gave it to my husband. He wore it immediately for his meeting last night. After that, he will wear it for his daily work at the shop.

Simple lunch

My husband loves to buy durians but he wouldn't eat at all. I had to finish them most of the time. My boy won't eat and my girl would just take a seed or two. Firstly, he bought two whole. Not long after, he bought another two when I told him that they were delicious. Then again, he bought more. This time they were already packed in plastic containers.  Durians are rich in nutrient. Durians are naturally rich in potassium, dietary fibre, iron, vitamin C, and vitamin B complex. The king of fruits is thus excellent for improving muscle strength and blood pressure, bowel movements and skin health. It also supports the nervous and immune systems, and enhances red blood cell formation.   I like to take durian with plain rice as lunch. Yesterday, I just fried fish and took it with lettuce and some rice. Simple yet delicious!
