Market Sentiment

Bless our fathers and mothers in law! Well, mine at least! They are always feeding us, or sending us lots of good stuff. My mum-in-law turned up on our doorstep on Saturday, right from the Taman Megah market where she went to buy ingredients for her popiah. Along with her turnips and tofu and what have you, she also brought food for my little family. And like my father would do, she brought way too much. Still, it was really lovely food.
Mothers will never forget what their kids love to eat.

Kit got fried mee, because his mother knows he loves yellow mee. I got fried kuey teow, wonderfully smokey and full of good things, like Chinese sausage, two large prawns and lots of bean sprouts. There were also these pretty little mini egg tarts, with melt-in-the-mouth pastry, and jello-like egg custard, and beancurd-skin wrapped fried dumplings with dipping mayonnaise. What bounty! What love!
