Qur'an 20190609

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

32.  They said, "O Noah!  You have disputed with us, and you have prolonged the dispute with us.  Now bring upon us what you threaten us with, if you speak the truth!"

33.  He said, "Truly Allah will bring it on you, if God wills, and then you will not be able to frustrate it!"

34.  Of no profit will be my counsel to you, much as I desire to give you counsel.  If it be that Allah wills to leave you astray, God is your Lord!  And to God will you return.

35.  Or do they say, "He has forged it?"  Say, "If I had forged it, on me were my sin!  And I am free of the sins of which you are guilty!"

36.  It was revealed to Noah, "None of your people will believe except those who have believed already!  So grieve no longer over their deeds."

37.  But construct an Ark under Our eyes and Our inspiration, and address Us not on behalf of those who are in sin, for they are about to be overwhelmed.

Hud 11:32-37

Home made beef jerky

Hi there, my luscious Ladies!  How's it going today?  How's business?  I hope your life is easy going, and you are having tons of fun and making lots of money for yourself.  It's been a long day for me.  I woke up early, because I have a kitchen project going.  I'm making home made beef jerky, which is a 2 day investment.  Actually I'm making what the locals call "serondeng", which looks like pulled beef but drier, and you don't add any sauce to it, so I refer to it as beef jerky.  I boiled the beef last night, and all this morning I cooked the beef with spices in a wok at low heat, constantly turning and stirring until it dried up.  I didn't want to make it too dry though: the locals seem to prefer it dry and stringy, but I wanted mine to be juicier.  Well, moister.  The locals usually eat "serondeng" with "ketupat", which is glutenous rice stuffed into packets made with coconut leaves then steamed:

Don't ask me how they fold those packets, I have no idea.  The locals do it regularly though, and they churn them out like machines.  Here's what the thing looks like after peeled:

I think my "serondeng" was a success, alhamdulillah.  Some people may prefer it dry, but I wanted it moist.  Thus, my beef jerky tastes like ribeye steak.  Very addictive.  I made almost 2 kilos of the stuff, and I could eat it all in one sitting.  There goes my diet.

This is my junior high school teacher look.
