weekend snapshot

victor in house

I had a great time today at william’s ancestral village. victor fixed my desktop and printer. Yippee. It has been out of action for months :) Iiks… magic hands. Thanks a million, Victor.

live herbal chicken

These black feet chicken can fetch a price of RM18.00/kg in the local market. It is used mainly for cooking nutritious herbal soups.

country chicken

These country free range chicken can fetch an even higher price. Perhaps RM24.00/kg. It has little fat.

siamese cats

There were some cute Siamese kittens. :) Felt like taking one home :)

soya bean milk machine

This machine is used for making soya bean milk.

machine for pepper

This is for removing the stem from the pepper pods.

fruit cutter

I really should get a fruit cutter like this. I only need to tie it to the end of a stick and avoid the hassle of climbing a tree to harvest fruits.

slippers

When I arrived home, I found I was still wearing the blue and white slippers I borrowed to move around the farm :) . I immediately called to apologize. It is fortunate they took it lightly. I was so absent-minded I had left my own behind. William told us he was going to treat us to a drink at a nearby coffee shop. In my excitement I forgot all about changing shoes :)

    Kampong chickens are expensive here too, the elderly folks swear by them, but actually I can’t tell the difference :P

    Have a good week ahead Beng!

    after boiling them, one can feel the difference in terms of nutrition content is my opinion

    Nice shots of the place.

  6. Kampung chickens! Not easily available in Singapore! They taste good. Hope I get to try them when I go Malaysia. *slurp*

    not so easy to get them in major towns in West Malaysia though
