Eid II: Movie Magic


Clear Soup
Swiped from williamnyk.
Without fail, we were at the wet market again. Noticably less stalls were open, no doubt due to the fact the suppliers were busy celebrating Raya. However, it did not quite put a dent in the crowd. Somehow or rather substitues would be manning the empty slots. Nothing goes to waste. The vegetable seller not open? Don't worry, her stall is taken over by the bra and panties lady. Chicken seller not there? Out comes several salesmen pushing non-slip mats and blenders. Always bustling. But something super sensational today. Some PRC guy was selling a 'magical' Shaolin remedy for aches and pains. He had of pictures of himself with Jackie Chan and Jet Li but at very low quality. Seemed like such a con job. But that wasn't what caught my eye-- it was the remedy itself. He poured some of the yellow medicated oil onto a guys hand... and it started smoking! WTF! So wuxia! But on TV, such smoke can only mean one thing-- POISON! :P.

Breakfast was soup noodles back near my old rented place in OUG. SK had a helluva time looking for parking. Surprised to find that the bowl of noodles was only MYR3.30! And all three of us shared a pack of nasi lemak. Could actually taste the creaminess of coconut milk in the rice. Another rarity. Back home, my mood to watch DVDs had surfaced. I chose "The Kingdom", a movie I bought at Batu Ferringghi during Mel's wedding years ago! It had been nicely collecting dust in my room all this while. A good movie. Quite entertaining really. Action. Mystery. And a whole CSI thing going on. A thumbs up. For lunch, it was chicken porridge with some lemang. So many poor immitations these days. The seller assured us that he spent at least six hours cooking his. Quite nice. Good quality glutinous rice, but the curry chicken was not to my liking.

Rice in Red

Feeling bored still, I chose another DVD-- "Perfect Stranger". Another movie that centers around investigative work. This time about investigative journalism and murder. An amazing twist at the end. Was very susrprised. Another thumbs up. Later in the evening, the relentless sun suddenly turned into rain. But it stopped soon enough that I still could swim. SK prepared dinner that night-- red wine rice vermicelli. Both red wine and mee suah mum had bought from Sitiawan. Also a thumbs up. As usual, my day was filled with tummy-filling milestones. Ahhh... the only way to live. :).
