7 Jun 2026 – RoastedChicken Stuffed with GlutinousRice糯米雞
Thu: a repeat from a year ago, hot&humid Jun weather forcast –
There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing – NorwegianSaying so in this case not better, and not just bad clothing but also bad atitudes&equipments! No worries with the appropriate air cooling appliances&gadgets over the years and still in use all being my real MVP – Most Valuable Providers of Cool Air.
Oct2013: Mitsubishi inverter AC.
2021-Present: PowerPacElectricClipFan$10 – have burnt out the motors of 2 since then and bought new ones.
Sep2024: EuropAce/Air-PurifyingBladelessFanS$258 using ClimateVouchers.
Aug2021: IUIGA/Neckfan S$50 – tested it out with a fully charged battery running on medium speed (3speeds) and it lasted for 7hrs. Jun2025: IUIGA has lasted ~4yrs and still working despite being taped! Tkx to Clement who is too embarrassed to be seen with me using the taped one got me a new JisuLife(5speeds). Not ready to say goodbye to IUIGA, how fortunate now to have one to use within the 4-walls and the other one when out with him – hahaha.
Fri: don’t pick the durians (like anyone will not pick!!) – says town council, as durian trees bloom at Lorong LewLian=Durian in the Chinese/HokkienDialect. Bringing back memories from a meal with one of the most appalling services despite one of the best RoastedChickens stuffed with GlutinousRice糯米雞 tasted then on this street.

BakedChestnuts from PandaChanSnack@FunanMall – not bad but do miss the old-fashioned-cart-open-fire roasting despite being on the messy side they do taste slightly different – pix downloaded. And yes life is good with these F-words: Fun with Family,Friends,FavouriteFoods in this order and can look forward to next week meeting with family childhood friends for a food extravaganza in Penang/Malaysia.
Sun: tkx for yummy dinner@Rochalie, taking time to enjoy these crabs.
