bright & cheery

Cherries toast with margarine, persimmon, coffee

It might sound strange... but persimmon is one of my favourite fruits. Haven’t heard anyone who like it too, do you?

not just hands

(for me) Ham & cheese bread, persimmon, coffee

not all are mine

Double cheeseburger, fries, apple pie, coffee

i didn’t eat them all! Just in case you thought i do :-p

why is this so yummy!

Instant noodle with egg and a piece of leftover otah from lunch, coffee

Looking through my previous posts, i realised that i have to control having instant noodle for breaks... the intake frequency is too short. Scary! i guess the only consolation is i don’t usually finish a pack by myself, and for this i take it that only half of the unhealthiness is being consumed :-)

golden or green

Chocolate swiss roll, kiwi, coffee

The label on the kiwi pack says golden kiwi, yet the flesh looks quite greenish. So is this golden or green kiwi?

piping hot

Fried sticky cake with sweet potato, coffee

Drenched from head to toe this morning from the suddenly downpour, and i had to say it was rather fun. Haven’t been acting crazy for such a long time :-p

just coffee

coffee (one of the rare days that i don’t feel hungry at all!)

Coffee and this photo of padi field reminds me of how much i missed my regular coffee during my 10 days stay in China. It was a rather last minute decision to go on the trip and i didn’t have time to stock up enough coffee to bring along. Little that i know that it was almost impossible to buy coffee, let alone the kind that i’m used to drink in a small village. The common beverage in the village was chinese tea. We were served tea at every house we visited, or even when we were just passing by. The village people were very friendly and they love to chat, inviting to tea was their usual way of welcoming guests.
