Traditional herbs for pets

I saw that Ayurveda traditional medicine has extended ramge of products for pets from shampoo to immune boosters vitamins. The Chinese TCM herbs have also introduced pet food infused with ginseng or goji berries n cranberries for pet cats.Will my cat eat food with herbs.im gonna try it as this cat seemed to have lost weight. perhaps the exercise outdoors is working. Now pets are treated as part of the family and indulged and pampered unlike in the past when cats were kept to catch mice and dogs to shepherd sheep or guard the home.now pussy plays with mobile rats and dogs get kidnapped for ransom

Astral travel

today is the first full moon of the month.i decided to go vegetarian or meat free.I bought red n yellow crysanthemums for the altar.i ate the yam cake,tapioca cake and rice with ketisik wrapped in banana leaves.i never drink coffee but i was reading in the newspaper about a drink called tiger bites lion or ho kar sai .its a mix of coffee and milo n evaporated milk.i asked the kopi tiam old uncle Ho about it and he was from Perak.He was nice and made the special drink for me.it was superfragrant as he used Nescafe.i tasted the chocolate of Milo in one sip and then the bitter fragrance of coffee.really packed a punch and so much oomph. for lunch i cooked a vegetarian spaghetti with mock minced soymeat,mixed vege of peas,carrot n corn,button mushroom,chopped tomato ,onion.i added oregano n italian mixed herbs so damn tasty n jun loved it although meatless The neslo drink gave a caffeine boost so i spent the whole morning cleaning n decluttering the fridge n organizing the spices n herbs in boxes. then drove to the Grocer to buy mock soy mutton and soy roast chicken i cooked dinner of tomato scrambled eggs as i need protein for evening workout of stretches.then i cooked a braised mutton with chinese herbs astralagus root,huang qi,cordycep flowers,star anise ,mushroom stock.minced garlic n ginger,dark soy sauce,caramelised sugar,button mushroom,peanut,carrot n fried gluten.it really looked like mutton pieces n fibrous as they used shitake mushroom stalks mixed with gluten.n soy beans. Jun says he wont mind eating vegetarian twice a week so i need to stock up gluten puffs and dried beancurd sticks. at nite i did full moon puja and short meditation before bed time.i dont know i reached a deep sleep of total relaxation.At around three am,i had an out of the body experience.I time iravelled through time and space and toured an ancient island with my two childhood best friends.Our tour guide was a local Greek or Spanish with tanned complexion.He took us on an Indiana Jones adventure.I love historical places with ancient architecture.He led us through a tunnel in a dark cave and we were stunned when we emerged from the opening.The whole cave was carved with scenes of warriors and gods in armour with spears and mythical beasts fighting with soldiers using swords and shields.it looked like Assyria of Hittite origin.the sculptors worked on grey granite so well the expressions on the faces came alive.the tour guide warned us not to touch the carving as it was monitoed by CCTV.My curious friend touched the face of a statue,activated a loud alarm n the security guard forcibly evicted her on the spot.The guide continued the climb up as water dripped from the roof of the cave onto our faces as we ascended narrow winding stairs and we went to the centre of the cave.wow it was the back of the whole carving and we could see how the sculptures were chiselled bythe craftsmen.i was awed and swooned at the fine artistry of the patience and skill of the craftsmen. Water dripped onto our faces as we climbed deeper into the caves.The smell of the bat dung was awful stench. I marvelled at the reverse of the stone carving and cant imagine how they did it without electric power tools. The loud meowing of pussy jolted me back to earth and his insistence on attention was so demanding that i put some kibbles for him as he ran out of food.bloody cat sleeps in the daytime and wakes up at nite to eat and play.a real vampire cat At 4am he is crying for attention. I think i went astral travelling through time and space.Could it be the effect of caffeine,chinese herbs or meditation.i dont know but im sure this cave exists somewhere in this world waiting for me to enter.in my next life i will be an academic

atcheologist like Indiana Jones.

Domestic goddess

Martha Stewart and Nigella Lawson are the idol domestic goddess of the western culinary world but look at their well equipped and super organized kitchen and im in heaven. My small condo wet and dry kitchen doesnt have an island or built in upper shelf cabinets,just kitchen trolleys,dish rack and appliance open shelf.Its so disorganized and messy.the bloody cat.jumped onto the kitchen table top next to the sink and piss on the wall He smelled the fishy bloody smell as i gutted the fish and trimmed the shrimps on the kitchen top and he smelled the aroma of fish n shrimp. made me hit the roof as this morning i had to sterilise and disinfect the kitchen top,walls n sink thoroughly.took the chance to clean inside the fridge as the international cuisine i cook means lots of exotic spices,sauces n herbs.i put them in ziplock bags,transparent plastic boxes and labelled outside with Malay,Indian,Chinese,Western,Middle eastern,Thai,Korean,Japanese labels. My fridge magnets bought by Jun called me crazy cat lady and a cat reader.so tough to organize in a small kitchen with no shelves or upper kitchen cabinets. But its better than the kampung kitchen of my aunt staying in rural villages.They use firewood and charcoal to cook,its dank and smoky,to get water,they go to the well outside the kitchen to draw buckets of fresh water that they put into a sand filter. But hell that traditional kitchen cooked delicious double boiled lotus soup with peanuts cooked in charcoal fire i

n claypots,the best grilled fish over woodfire so when Jun dreamt of Po Po,he associated her with awesome Cantonese soup like peanuts with lotis root n dried oysters,red dates or watercress soup with dried soya beans and dried squid.He asked me to cook the soup and i asked him to order it in restaurants as it need long hours of patience to boil the peanuts n soya beans.i may try cooking his favourite middle eastern food of pita bread with chicken shawarma or nasi mandy and grilled kebabs.

Beautiful Sunday

Today we did one n a half hour line dance at the park.We are multiracial and learn Chinese,Western n Malay dances including the evergreen Alamak hari raya dance. This morning im so pissed by Juns unhealthy lifestyle.lazy to even walk 100m to the pharmacy,he must park right in front of it.The whole week he only ate lots of carbo n meat and no vegetables n fruits altho i buy lots of fruits n vege each week.i blew my top when he bought a greasy burger for dinner although i cooked healthy fish in tomato soup with leeks n tomato and macaroni.His blood test already shows obesity problems with cholesterol and elevated blood sugar.He shouldnt assume he wont get chronic illness as his friend slightly older had a bypass. im gonna cook more vegetarian food next week to force him to eat vegetables but he gets unhealthy takeaway when he could eat healthy choice like springrolls,rojak,salad or sayur lodeh.geram betul la .
