Weekend Blogging

My feast, cooked for a few hours, a few minures to chow down and eat leftovers for the whole week.  The pictures are not very good. 
Mine is a lazy man cooking, all in aluminium pan, from the stove to the table and fridge, save washing dishes and looking for containers to store the left overs.

Mash potatoes in a pot

The green bean casserole, have to cook two type one from canned beans and the other fresh beans

We cook a turkey breast this year.  Thats my feast for this year, Nothing special.

 

These  are souvenier spoons which I collected over the years. They are from some States which I  visited.

 

This Buddha I bought some years ago and he must sit high and have no clutter around him so I place him on the fireplace mantel.  There is a butterfly in his hands and it is a real butterfly. It landed on the windshield wiper of John's truck while he was crossing the bridge. JJ remove it and instead of throwing it away, we place it in the Buddha's hands, maybe to give it life again :)  Its wings are still intact.


 

The Laughing Buddha which according to Feng Sui must face the front door.  The Bodhi plant is behind him. He is placed at a corner but faces the front door.

Check out the Malaysian Cookbook which I bought in 1984 in KL

Evening Bags

Here are the evening bags I told you about

These I bought from the Thrift Stores. The middle one I bought a few years ago for $2.50 and in very good condition. I thought the right small black bag is very cute.
These two are very plain but I like the chains
The top three I bought from the antique mall for $8 each and here is a close up of the one I first collected.
