Hello 2017.

My first post for 2017.  I don't expect much in 2017 but praying for much better and peacful life.  It has been a 2016 struggle for me and the whole family.  Nevertheless, am keeping my head high up to face come what may.  


Cooked simple dish for dinner as everyone seems to be in sombre mood somehow.  Anyway, these simple dish of salted bitter mustard and omelet is among the many of my favourite simple dish.  Missing the cili padi of course which I can't go without.
