SPRING IS IN THE AIR

SOME SPRING QUOTES

No matter how long the winter,
spring is sure to follow.  ~Proverb

I love spring anywhere, but if I could choose
I would always greet it in a garden.  ~Ruth Stout

If we had no winter,
the spring would not be so pleasant;
if we did not sometimes taste of adversity,
prosperity would not be so welcome. 
 ~Anne Bradstreet

The year's at the spring
And day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hillside's dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in His heaven -
All's right with the world!
~Robert Browning










UNDERWATER BEAUTIES

Snapshots of my brother-in-law's salt-water aquarium.
I wish I know the names of the species.

POLO GROUND

Morning at the Polo Ground in Ipoh.






LIM KO PI




Black Sesame Pau, Pumpkin Pau, Vegetable Pau

My sister-in-law introduced me to a really quaint kopitiam, newly opened in the old town section of Ipoh. It has the usual local breakfast stuff. Nothing special, except for the pau, which tasted very homemade. I like the vegetable pau. The special feature of this kopitiam is that at the back of the shop, there are 2 separate enclosures which can accommodate 2 kopitiam tables. It is open air and has a garden theme. Lovely. And at the moment, price is still reasonable.

CAFE DE ARK

Discovered a cafe run by a pastor.
I understand that the profits go to help orphans and a street ministry. Unfortunately, I was too busy eating the food to take any photos. But I can tell you this: the walnut pie is to die for.
And price is reasonable.
