Christmas Gathering for St. Joseph Prayer Group

-
Last Sunday, I went with my dad to the Christmas gathering at St. Joseph. This gathering resembles the year end holidays of the prayer group. As I still have dozens of coupons in my priveledge book, I decide to bring pizza to the gathering.

I went to 'tapao' the pizza late afternoon and at the same time, get some groceries at Upwell. Ooppsss, forgot to mention that I bought from Pizza Junction. I realize they have first floor. That's an improvement and expansion.

With my coupons, I bought 2 large pizza for RM36. They do not charge for any service tax or government tax or whatsoever taxes like the usual fast food charges. Hahaha...

OK, the dinner starts at 7.30pm. We reach there at around 7.10pm. By then, the place is already full with people. I chit-chat with my cousin in law while waiting for the time to fill my hungry stomach. So what's serve on the table? Pizza, spaghetti, cheese cakes and other cakes, fried beehoon, fried rice, fried mee, fried kueh tiaw, nuggets, salad tauhu (not sure if this is the correct name), veggies, curry and all sorts of 'kueh'. Wow....I'm really going to get myself gain some KG tonight!
As usual, before we had our dinner, there's thanksgiving prayer by Stephen Bong (hope I get his name right). We sang the song "This is the Day". Well, this is one of the Christian song that I love the most. Hehehehe ....

Finally when the feast began, everyone is circling around my pizza. Hhmmmm, I manage to grab one slice though. Hahaha... The taste is so so only and I still prefer Pizza Hut.

I filled my plate with a little bit of each of the items on the table. The cheese cake is marvellous! Really loves it. Someone bring 'rambutan' too but since my house is filled with it, I didn't bother to get some. Instead, I take watermelon and star fruit as desserts.

After dinner, there's a short 'gotong royong' to clean up the place and remove the table backs to its original place. Me? Well, I'm way too full to move my butt. All I do is sit at the corner, looking at others doing the cleaning up. (guilty me)

Anyway, it's Christmas time. Let us all sing our heart in prayers and wish everyone MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

The First Confession - St. Mark's Church, Batu Kawa

Last Sunday is BF day of signing the "Book of Life" (I think that's what they call it). From the time table list, it is known as the "First Confession" day... Well, I translate directly the meaning since it's in BM. Hehehe... We arrived there at around 9am. Not many people there that time but there are people setting up stall to sell some food after the church service. BF told me that he had not had any breakfast yet and I nag him. Whahahaha! I had to sit separately from BF and dad since I'm not the godfather. Church service starts at 9.30pm. While waiting for the mass, I took pictures all around the church . Are they dreaming?? I took some picture when they signed the book. Well, I'm the only photographer that day. One thing different between St. Mark and my church is that during this kind of occasion is that in my church, there will be more than 1 photographers going all round taking photos or filming the whole occasion. I guess Father Lim like

Cozy Cafe, Jalan Song

Feeling hungry for something different on lunch time? Another place you can think of will be this restaurant - The Cozy Cafe. It is opposite One TJ with a black signboard. The environment is indeed cozy and warmth. Taste wise not bad but I can say that the service is a little weird. We order tea and they only permitted to give us 2 cup. Hhmmmm, I thought that we can just ask them to refill the pot wit hot water and share the tea amongst us. Guess this is how they earn more - limiting the number of sharing per tea pot. Oh well, got to just follow their rules. And this is what we ordered - sharing portion between a few of us. After all, ladies are small eaters. Mushroom soup with garlic bread Fish and chips Spaghetti Carbonara with hot dogs  Enjoy your lunch yea...

'Ma Li Chai'/'Mani Chai', also known as Cangkuk Manis

While googling for news about 'malichai', it turns out that I hardly get anything that I am looking for, so this triggers me to write something about this local vegetables that I believe, can only be found in Sarawak. 'Mali chai' is easily planted and grow quite fast as well. In fact, this is the only vegetables that I planted and it didn't fail on me! With its stick, just plant it on the ground and leave the rain and sun to takes care of the rest. Hahaha... 'Mali chai' is a word in hokkien that mostly use in Kuching. 'Chai' means vegetables. Hakka people called it 'su choi'. Well, this vege doesn't seems to have an English name. If we are to translate from BM to English, it definitely sounds weird - Sweet Hook. I think anyone who hear 'sweet hook' will not be keen to try it out.. So, how do 'mali chai' looks like? I've snap the photos of this vegetables at my garden. Actually, I've just harvest the vegetables few
