Of food and flowers

Celebratory dinner for a good result.

Creamy scalloped potatoes, baked crumbed lamb cutlets with mint pesto and a mixed salad of avocado, apple and greens.

Definitely fattening but very much devoured .

Another well-received dinner, beef enchiladas.

I love salads so I have it often. This one has grapes, grape tomatoes, almond and greens.

The food I had last Friday nite when everyone else was having their usual weekly pizza.

I only had to cook the rice. The chicken curry, sambal belacan ayam penyet and the tahu goreng were all from the freezer.

I only had to reheat them, easy peasy!

Definitely much yummier (makan bertambah2 kind of yummy) to me than pizza!

And the Spring has finally sprung this week, the weather has been lovely, mid 20s during the day.

Cousin It has also started flowering eventhough tak banyak bunga lagi.

And we’ve added 2 more lavender plants on the strip.

This time they were the Allaardi variety which they say is the tallest lavender of the lot.

Our french lavender, still flowering and growing strong.

And now we have a hanging pot of fuschias outside the front door. Hopefully they grow well there.

The ever beautiful strawflowers.

Our first gazania.

It’ll open up when there’s sun and kuncup again in the evening.

And the colourful snapdragons.

Do you know that I just found out that strawflowers and snapdragons ni boleh ditanam di lowland Malaysia?

I’ve seen them in a few blogs, cantik aje hidup!

I dah post some seeds ke Mak I, tinggal tunggu dia rajin nak tanam aje, hehehehe….

I know we have pretty flowers outside but I still teringin somethign different inside.

Bought some carnations at the shop sebab our carnations that Miss 9 planted aren’t growing that well…

Berseri lah jugak inside kan
