@gm4queen those Begonia plants are beautiful. What do you mean hard to maintain ?

 

Leaves pretty much dry out in summer, chingu! The plant is indeed beautiful but you have to work hard to keep it alive. We've got ourselves a lot of species of begonia before! Then the life got busy and we've barely had time to manage them and that's it! Now we only have few of them left...

We have many species in our garden too! Hard to maintain..

i had this, for less than a few months and it died..

too much water, the whole leaf stalks rot and fell off

too little water, the leaf edges turned brown and crispy

 

and i got more annoyed staring at it having to clear this and that, than enjoying its beauty

@LeftCoastOppa that's chee cheong fun.. its made of steamed thin rice rolls

 

there's 2 types..

 

 

on dimsum menu, its usually a much thinner rice roll with either charsiew or shrimps wrapped in the center then drizzled with sesame oil, light soy sauce, and sprinkled with roasted sesame seeds and fried shallots

or the simpler fare

 

slightly thicker rice rolls, with just some sesame oil, sweet red sauce and roasted sesame.. chili on the side

 

cr.: owner

 

hong kong has the first type with fried fritters rolled in the center as well

I tend to look for plants that need less care & attention.  

In case I need to go for long holidays, i don't have to worry they will die.

all the leaves start drooping and going brown.

 

This is definitely a fittonia. We had one and it was very finicky. Water, light, and temperature all have to be perfect for it to do well inside. I was reading that these plants just like being in shady spots in a yard...like under a bench.

 

Wow, that chee cheong fun looks so good. Brings me back to childhood and dim sum. Drroooll!!!!

 

@Thong Thin your food pictures are also amazing!

 

Good morning every one in Europe! Good day to everyone in Asia. And everyone in the US...have a good night.

Chingu, did you drop The Veil ?....

 

 

Nope, I didn't drop it, but seeing it had a good start, I think it couldn't maintain it and went off track. I believe the last episodes will air this week, so I will be watching them

Guess I might have feed it too much water.

 

This morning before I leave the house, I moved it to a place with little light and will check on it tonight if the leaves

will bouce back.

 

  they grew so beautifully covering the whole pot and now looks so sickening.

@Thong Thin  yeah we should get snow in coming month. I think in the latest in December.

I've been there! It's such a beautiful plant when it's doing well! And then when it starts to go....it's so sad. Hope yours does better than ours did.

Good afternoon chingus! @joccu @MayanEcho @twinkle_little_star @Ameera Ali @Thong Thin @sadthe1st

At this rate, we will only be able to admire abs, not have them.

,cuttle fish, water spinach mixed with prawn sauce and chop peanuts.

By the way among the dramas that has similar vibes that you have watched which is your fav. ?

mine - my mister 

 

chingudeuls,

am i the only one who is way tooooooo much excited for Mount Jiri ?!

Am to excited to see Jun ji hyun back on screen and excited about the story line and everything in the plot as it is written by signal’s writer.

But somewhere am afraid that I might jinx it with my over excitement !

 

@Sleepy Owl chingu I missed reading your long posts .

@sadthe1st

 

 

I am not much into sea food either. Selective eating when it comes to sea food. 

 

@Thong Thinand @sadthe1st Evil twins leading us into temptation with all that good food . Turning us into gluttons!  

(That's evil laughter from @sadthe1st and @Thong Thin while the rest of us drown in drool)

 

@Ameera Ali is practising abstinence. No abs for her so no abs for us. Our only hope is @twinkle_little_star for sustaining us till @Ameera Ali is back with a vengeance!

 

@twinkle_little_star Top Gun! 

 

@4evrkdrama I like your dp. Hunger Cell rules, all the time!

I love every cells in it ...

They are so cute right ?

I even love the "poop cells"

I died laughing tooo hard during that scene !

Each time i try to drop the drama these cells hold me back ! 

The cells teaching her aegyo oh my god that was the most awkward , embarassing yet funny thing in ep 10.

 

Do tell me your thoughts on the drama twin @confusedheart ?

[joccu]

@4evrkdrama well that drama destroyed all the children's games for me.  The hype is unreal. The drama is nr.1 watched Netflix in here.

The drama was okay.

Wow, I'd certainly eat this if only for the green mangoes ingredient!  I hope there's Singaporean or Malaysian cuisine offered in Expo, and if they do, I'd have Rojak if available. 

 

Hubs brought mutton biriyani while coming from work. Yay for eating without having to cook, hahaha!
