Kopi Makes Me Happy

Today I was expecting a client but she was late. So I did not wait for her but had someone else attend to her.

I am a stickler for punctuality. That's what I emphasized to my partner, who is a bit more relaxed when it comes to time. I told him 9:00am means 9:00am. Sharp! Not 9:15am or 9:30am or worse 10:00am. 

Some people are very lax when it comes to keeping time. Their 9:00am can sometimes mean 10:00am or later. Times waits for no man and neither does this madam!

So I left to get newspapers and chicken rice for my mum. I did not wait to chit chat with mum because I had to get back to the office to get my work done. On my way back to Damansara Uptown, I decided to settle my lunch.


My first roast duck for 2025.


Juicy and tasty. No complaints. I was very well behaved, no sweet black sauce and no condiments. Just the duck in its natural taste.


All that washed down with an iced Kopi C no sugar. The best in the neighborhood.


This was last night's dinner - pork shoulder steak, two leftover fried eggs, chicken broth and fermented veggies.


This morning I caught Kittie Kat checking out a new macho cat. This is the first time I see him. Fortunately, Kittie Kat is fixed, or else .....  

I found this old photo of Belle Belle. I wish she were still around. I do miss the old girl.

  1. My food and beverage intake for today was: Breakfast - fried bee hoon with cabbages and luncheon meat and 2 half boiled eggs (for my protein). The cabbages are warm and very very fresh, I enjoyed my breakfast this morning. Lunch was western food, brown sauce chicken chop with 2 buns and coleslaw. Lunch was satisfying too. Dinner later will have mushrooms pizza with pineapple chunks and one char siew bun. I love the pizza as it is sweet and sour and very hoi wai with the pineapple chunks.

    The roast ducks look really great! Better don't play play with Mdm PH, 9am means 9am not 9.01 or 9.02am. Ahem!

  2. Hugs PH! I understand why you miss your old cats. I miss my old dog too who had gone to heaven even if he was not with me for a long time. Short while also can have strong emotional attachment.

  3. Wow! Good exercise for you to walk to your mom and back very quickly. Your teeth are strong to eat half a roast duck with ease πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
    Padan muka your client for being late and couldn't see you.
    I miss Belle Belle too though I only know her virtually. When I miss Belle Belle I go attend to my tenant and see more of him. 😻

  4. Coffee makes me happy too! Every morning I start the day with a shower and a warm cup of sweet black kopi which helped set the tone for a happy and fulfilling day ahead for me.

  5. The last photo of Belle Belle really looks like Kris's new part time pet, no wonder you say so.
