The night market

 


Hi Natty!  How's your back?  Go lie face down on the floor Honey, I'll give you a massage.  After that, we can figure out what you want for dinner.  Oh we're not cooking dinner tonight, Honey.  Today is Monday, and we are going to buy dinner at the night market.  Hm, nice weather this evening.  I guess Allah is being nice.  I spent more than I usually do tonight. I bought some "satay" which is basically meat skewers served with spicy peanut sauce.  Yes, the same type of sauce you get with prawn fritters.  I bought 10 skewers of satay.  Also I got a beef  "murtabak", which is kind of a stuffed paratta flat bread.  By themselves the portions are measly for me, so I put them together and that turned out quite filling.  Putting them together gave me heartburn, though.  It's a good thing I have lots of roasted peanuts.  Peanuts or sunflower seeds are excellent natural remedies for heartburn.  What would you like, Honey?  I'm sure you will find something to your taste.  I have a feeling you are ready to try anything and everything.  If so, please don't get bloated and beware of sugar.  Oh dear, it's starting to rain.
