Share and care

i workout before I eat breakfast so this morning i filled up my water bottle and went to do zumba in the park.It was so hot outdoors with a glaring sun.After zumba i drove to the mamak restaurant near home for my roti canai ,teh tarik fix but forgot it was Hari Raya Haji holiday and the restaurant was closed.So was the poolside cafe and kopi tiam in the condo. I was feeling dizzy as i was walking past the laundromat .low blood sugar is risky so when i saw a .Malay lady at the tables at the waiting atea of the laundromat with lemang,rendang,lontong,sambal,eggs,prawn sambal,peanuts n anchovy mix,i was drooling and stomach growlingI asked her how much her breakfast cost as i wanted to buy food. She laughed as i asked in Malay and she spoke Indonesian.The group of ladies were Indonesian migrant workers who lived and worked in the condo.Tbe worker in the laindromat knew me because i often gave cat kibbles to her to feed Mimi the stray cat in her laundromat. She said they were celebrating Hari Raya Haji by having a potluck breakfast.No wonder the food looked so delicious.She offered me a plate and welcomed me to join them to eat.Im a true Malaysian when it comes to makan.i ate with the migrant workers as they cracked jokes about the indo mee being better than malaysian maggi mee and us copyinv their cooking of nasi uduk,nasi padang and mee jawa.Im proud to be a Malaysian Chinese who embrace multiculturalism as i can converse with them openly and make friends easily.Whdn they eat with their hands,i followed suit eating lemang and tendang with my hands.When you are in Rome do as the Romans do.. The migrant workers were generous to share breakfast with me.So i feel multiculturalism extends our worldview.For lunch i cooked Chinese dumplings in tomato soup Jun had braised wantan mee with chicken and spinach n pickled lettuce.For dinner i cooked potato gnocchi with truffle cheese sauce i bought from Jimmy Tartufi truffle sauce,chicken,spinach and breaded scallops. I eat Indonesian breakfast,Chinese lunch and Italian dinner.Yipee for multiculturalisation and globalisation.
