The Super Bitter Premium Tea - Peria Katak

There is no reason why we would want to choose a bitter drink over the sweet one right?  Unless it's for health purpose. This is exactly the reason why we are willing to try this super bitter drink made from Peria Katak (Bitter Melon).  Peria Katak is much more bitter than the normal bitter gourd.   

 This box consists of 25 sachets of bitter melon tea bags 
 once opened, I kept the tea bags in a Tupperware container

 Translation :  "Blended from fresh and quality bitter melon from the farm into an aromatic drink suitable for the whole family.  According to scientific studies, bitter melon acts as natural insulin because they contain active ingredients that can effectively lowering sugar level."
 A mug of super bitter Peria Katak drink.  Believe me, it is super duper bitter.  Hopefully it is helpful for diabetic patients.
The look of the Peria Katak are more like a mice than a frog (Katak) to me..What do you think ??

Flowers, plants and vegetable at home

Awaken by a phone call from my brother.  Oppss...it's already 8.30am..no worries, it's a Saturday & still school holiday.

Had our relaxing breakfast at home, kids will be back to school next week.  My girl helped to spread avocado with milk on a slice of bread for me with her leftover avocado (her breakfast for today, obviously not used to taking fruits as breakfast :D).  It's just feel so nice to have my little girl preparing something for me.  She prepared sandwich lunch for me too on my request because I am down to cough & flu.

After breakfast, I went checking on my flowers, the progress of my tomatoes seedlings, french beans seedling, if any (still no way to be found) and my kale plant.
Finally, this single petals desert rose is blooming.

I took a picture of the three types of blooming desert roses at the front porch..I bought 3 more varieties of desert roses from the tamu last week, as you can see one of them is at the right side. 

Here is the tomatoes seedlings, growing very slowly but at least germinated about a week after planting the seeds.
one more, looking weak hopefully it will become stronger in the coming days.
my kale plant that I bought from the tamu for RM8.00.  It was in a poly bag, we re-potted it here.  I just learnt that Kale is very good for health.  I intend to add more herbs plants into my collections and start to learn how to "eat" them since they posses great nutritional values.

We are working on a planting project at our home, will update it here soon.
