I am back
in my hometown.
The
journey was good, despite some minor air pockets and turbulence..
I was
thrown from my seat a few time, not that I bounced from my seat high up and
landed flat on the floor but my butt did lift a few mm from the seat….hehehehe
When I fly
alone and there was such turbulence I would sometime picture myself as falling
from thousands feet high. I closed my eyes…pray
And then I
die. Alone
But things
were different when I was flying with Zoul. When there were turbulences I felt
less scared since my tension was somewhat released when I squeezed his hand, at
least he was there with me and I wont die alone if we fell….
I have
dabai daily since a month ago. B$5
/plastic container (800gm? Or less?) but since I love it so much Zoul would go
to all length to get them for me. Hmmmm….so far so good….supply is over demand.
Thanks daddy!!
It’s been
three days since I had the last dabai and now there is none left for me to
savour.
What is
dabai? Some of you might ask..
Dabai is a
seasonal fruit that could be found in Borneo. You can tell fresh dabai from the
colour of the tip where the stalk was (upright end) it’s yellowish, if fresh
but it’s white if not so fresh although still edible.
The
locals scrape the skin before consuming but I eat without scrapping them. Dabai
has to be soaked first in warm water (not hot water) until they get tender
before consuming.. Zoul will do it for me since my judgment was never precise
and I would end up eating not tender enough dabai. I like dipping them in soy sauce which gives
the ‘lemak masin’ taste but Zoul doesn’t like it. Alhamdulillah….I always had
more than I bargain for. Thanks daddy!
I told
Zoul that maybe we should plant the seeds here so we can have endless supply of
dabai but then Zoul said my craving for dabai will soon be over. No need to go to
such length.
Well, I don’t think so.
Oh, I cannot wait to go back to Brunei where gloriousssss dabai
awaits!
