12/23 spontaneous picnic

 it never occurs to you that you could do an impromptu and spontaneous picnic lunch like this. after the rain stopped, you started to hunt for a place where you can have your lunch, you almost stop and lunch at some abandoned durian hut/stalls on the road side, but other disagree and so you finally ended up here.

with a rattan basket....

at the road side, along a small stream...

friend asked for permission to dine at this place, it's a dessert stall along the road side that's under renovation.... the owner kindly agreed and gave us the permission to use the table for lunch...

 so here's your lunch, simple and some leftover from the morning breakfast, red bean soup, steamed sweet potatoes, bread and hard boiled eggs...

and all of you dine happily. it's a special experience, and life can be simple. simple is beautiful, less is more... and you thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality of the  local people here, the hospitality that you've long forgot but had a moment to rekindle..
