Old and Recent Photos

Photo of my birthday cake taken in July. I was not in the mood to post it then but it is a 1kg chocolate sponge cake topped with icing.
Orange juice with an orchid in a glass. The dark soft purple orchid is the national flower of Singapore and is abundant every where over there – seen in posters, on the press, brochures, etc.
Interior decoration of a cosy nonya restaurant in Penang. The rosewood furniture beckons you to dine here as long as your wallet allows. Personally, I don’t eat here often if you think so, but prefer to have simple hawker food.
Nonya food that I ordered consisting of nasi ulam, sambal kangkong, otak and jiu hu char. Also had chocolate float, not seen here.
Cound not resist a good shot of a bouquet of orange lily-of-the-valley. I love flowers and think they will cheer up any bad day.

Hi Diana,
Glad to meet another Pg blogger! Your blog is so informative. How I wish I could work from home like you! My writing skill is not good and my spare time is very limited. Hope to learn more from you in future.

Hi there,
Happy Belated Birthday wishes!
May I know what is ‘Nasi Ulam’? Is it a malaysian or nyonya dish?
Cheers,

Viv,
Thanks.
Nasi ulam is a nonya dish of rice sprinkled with lemon grass, bits of other herbs and is fragrant. You should try it someday.
