Horn Bean or Kacang Tanduk
|
|
These beans are grown first time in our back yard. Harvested in autumn of Nov. 2008.
It is about 35 cm and have pods for about 10 adult thumb-sized beans.
The bean has a thick skin surrounding it pods but is soft and edible after boiling.
After searching for its name and cant find its exact term, I named it The Horn Beans or the Bahasa Melayu version Kacang Tanduk.

I wanted very much to meet zareda again and I told her about this. I have been in Putrajaya for more than a month now but still has no chance to see her.
I arranged a meeting with her, also telling her that I wanted to see Pnut, who just give birth to a pre-mature baby girl, less than a month ago.
I saw Pnut once, about 4 years ago, also at Alamanda. That time meeting her was very brief during her lunch hour.
This time, Zareda brough me to her house. We chatted for about 2 hours with her husband and the son.
We had a hard time finding our way to her house at Desa Pinggiran Putra.

June 22, 2008-Friday; Rusmimi and I took the long-distance bus to Kota Bharu in Kelantan. The journey took about 8 hours passing Genting Sempah, Bentong, Raub, Gua Musang, Macang, Tanah Merah and at last Pasir Mas. We had about 45 min stopover for lunch and rest at Merapoh, a town out of nowhere in the jungle. We reached Pasir Mas at 5.30 pm and were greeted warmly by Mr. Darma Mohammad.
He immediately led us to his house that passed Kg. Nur Pusaka.
June 23, 2008, Saturday; DM droved us to Pantai Cinta Berahi or now its changed to Pantai Cahaya Bulan. The, we saw the local market Pasar Siti Khatijah and the Bazaar Buluh Kubu.
We went home for lunch that was prepared all by DM wife of nasi kerabu (see foto). After lunch, we went to Rantau panjang border and immigration point, near the Thai border.
Then, we went to the fishing village at Kg. Geting at Tumpat to see some local cottage industry of fish processing.
We went in KB Mall and I bought the latest edition of La Tahzan in 3 parts at Popular Book Store there.
We went back to DM house and had pulut durian, nasi tapai and keropok lekor for dinner.
Thank you Mr. Darma Mohammad and family for the warmth and hospitality. Nothing in this world would repay that kindness.

Lunch at Alamanda, Putrajaya
|
|
At last I met these two people. I've known them for about 4 years only thro their blogs and reading their lives thro their writings.
This day, this historic day. I sat with them and treasure every seconds of this meeting.
We had lunch at Alamanda a restaurant called The Penang Place. I had cendul durian and felt satisfied with the orders these two ladies treated me.
Thank you, girls and hope we will see again, sometimes insyaAllah.
Putrajaya, June 19, 2008-Alamanda.
