13 June 2026 ~ Saturday Brunch

My brunch today was simple but satisfying — 2 eggs, some leftover sardines from yesterday, roast chicken, and durian. 😋

Dad, who turns 83 this year, still loves going to the market every week to buy our perishables and lunch. Today, he came home with half a roast chicken and a box of kampung durian. Though my brunch was quite modest, it kept me full all the way until dinner.

For tea, I had chickpeas again, yogurt with soaked chia seeds, and my favourite pandan custard Swiss roll from JJ Swiss Roll.

We also made a trip to the main JJ Swiss Roll outlet in town to pick up a cake for Mum and her friends, who are celebrating their 80th birthdays together. Some of her friends had travelled all the way from KL and Australia to Ipoh for this special reunion. These are her course mates from Teachers' Training College more than 60 years ago.

Growing older is a privilege when you still have dear friends by your side to celebrate life's milestones together. Here's to good health, lasting friendships, and many more happy memories for all of them.  I hope I can do the same with my friends in future❤️
