- Stop by at the night market near my place after work.
- Must walk the whole stretch of the night market before deciding to buy anything
- Must buy item: fruits and cendol
- Buy something for dinner (if there is no plan to go out for dinner), normally Nasi Kerabu.
*I have some story with Nasi Kerabu. Will tell that later...
- Reach apartment, unpack the things I've bought
- Sit down, put my feet up while sipping the cendol. Ahhhh.... this is bliss :)
*If I have not planned anything for the weekend, this is the time to think of what to do.
If you remember reading about my exercise plan on the evenings, that plan is definitely not for Friday :)
About that Nasi Kerabu story....
A few years back, went to KB with a group of friends to attend a friend's wedding. On the way back to KL, we decided to eat something before boarding the bus at about 8 or 9, can't remember. Anyway, I'm not too hungry to eat a whole pack of Nasi Kerabu so decided to share with my friend. We keep one more pack just in case we got hungry in the bus.
That Nasi Kerabu was the best I've ever had. Really really good. At about 1 or 2 in the morning, the bus stopped for a while. We decided to eat our nasi kerabu but found out it has gone bad. Sooo... sad. Kempunan betul! So from that day onwards, if I saw any Nasi Kerabu that looks decent (no blue coloring OK!), I'd buy and give it a try. Luckily, the Nasi Kerabu they sell at the night market is pretty decent.
Sunflower gives the connotation of cheerfulness, bright, jolly, merry... you get the idea! However, if any content in this blog didn't fit the cheerfulness implied by its name, look at it this way... I'm putting down all the wretchedness, gloom, melancholy feeling in here so I can continue living up to the expectation of making the association to the sunflower.

Dear Sunflower, did you had a hectic week? You poor thing. Never mind the weekend's here. Anytime I feel tired or down I just look at my patch of sunflowers in my garden and I feel better much much better. Do you have sunflowers too? I also have a good view of the mountains and the valley and the air is just cool and crisp. Hmmmm just like heaven. Speak to you again soon.
i love nasi kerabu too... but not the kind where the rice is blue.
nasi kerabu + ayam percik... damn shiok!
kerabu biru buat i ngeri..cam direndam dlm nila...
Hi PW, sounds like you stayed at a nice place there. I don't have any garden to plant sunflower and don't think I have a green thumb either.
I like my nasi kerabu with daging salai lynnee.
A'ah puteri, blue is not a color we normally associate with food.
Dear Sunflower,
I didn't know food in your country can be blue in color. Won't it kind of put you off or do some people really like it that color? How did it originate and do you use food coloring to make it blue? I personally will be put off but then if it makes the food really taste good, I may change my mind. Anyways the coloring may not be good for your health so you should take care. You might just turn blue, sunflower, and that wouldn't be nice.
PW,
the traditional version of the rice got its bluish color from some herbs. the modern version, people use blue colorings coz they can't find the herbs or too lazy to do it the traditional way. but bluish and blue is not the same thing. so no blue rice for me.
