Hi Natty! How are you today? I hope you are well, and having a great time. We need to make a donation today OK? Please make a donation in the name of Allah of a minimum of one US dollar to a worthwhile charity. Are you hungry? Would you like some of my dinner? I made fried flat noodles with chicken, it turned out successful. But my pickled soybeans aren't ready yet. Pickled soybeans are reday when they turn red, but I needed them for my stir fry! So I had to use them. I probably shouldn't have. I used some local herbs for my stir fry called "daun kesum". It's usually for fish broth, but it's so fragrant. And it has a bit of a bite to it.
Oh, the good news is that the bamboo that I'm using for my wands is only superficially fractured! As far as I can tell, the fracture isn't a deep gash, so these drumsticks might last a few decades inshaAllah. I haven't cut in the hollow part yet, I don't dare to. All I did today was portion the parts out, and it looks like I will be making 3 wands. Hm, I only have 2 hands. I had enough bamboo left over to make a staff. It's a bit taller than me. It looks like about your height, Natty. I brought it inside the house, of course.
