Local fare

Hi Honey!  How are you feeling today?  It must be getting colder over there, so I hope you are staying warm yet keeping your cool.  It's a fairly cool today over here.  I was busy all day, but my heart was calm enough to take my time and get everything done with time to spare.  Cool weather always makes me feel better.  I ran errands in the morning.  I picked up my Dad's prescription, bought a sewing needle with a big eye (so I can use fishing line instead of cloth thread) and cable blades for the grass cutter.  I had lunch downtown, flat bread with curry.  After voice training, I cut the grass.  I bought my dinner at the night market.  It's local fare, common food here but I don't think you would have ever encountered it.  I bought some "apom balik" which is a flat cake with peanuts and sugar, then folded over.  Sweet.
Then I got a "cucur udang" dinner set.  Prawn croquettes with cucumber, boiled egg, fried tofu with peanut sauce on the side.  Savory sweet.
It's not what I would cook, but that is a good thing because I didn't have to cook.
