Merdeka Day

Got up early in the morning and we started our journey to KL at 6.30am. We reached Tapah at about 7.30am. We had our breakfast before we continued out journey to our new place. 

Tapah rest stop is rather patriotic in view of the Merdeka day.

We reached our intended destination at about 9.45am. After spending some time over there, we headed to USJ for our lunch.

I was curious about this vegetable. 
It was tasty.

After lunch, we headed to 1U for a shopping spree. Actually I wanted to redeem a Samsung tablet for the boss but it was out of stock. So he got to wait for a week to get his new toy.

Shopped at hush Puppies as it offered great discounts.

Before we called it a day, we had our tea break at Miam Miam.

 I had tasted the squid ink spaghetti before when I was in Penang recently and I didn't like it. So this time, I didn't touch this plate.

I was supposed to drive back to Ipoh but the boss didn't stop for me to take over. So he drove all the way and he missed the exit to Jelapang. So you can imagine we had to take another hour to reach home!

      If you ever visit One-U again in future, it would be easy for me to walk there from home to just say "Hi" to you.

Twin bananas

Image
Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
