May 1 - Neem Leaves

More like yesterday, woke up, time to visit Meow's dad. Damn hungry, waited till 3pm before we had lunch at Pulau Tikus.
Meow's big bro and sis went back to KL. After lunch, headed to One-Stop shopping complex as his mom wanted to buy some 'feng shui' bracelets. His nephew damn happy when I bought him fries and sundae cone from McD. That kept the little brat busy for a while.

Had some rest before it was time to visit his dad again. His dad's sugar level rose up, asked to take home the condensed milk as doc advised not to consume it. Dropped his mom and nephew home before we go for our dinner. I was craving for rice...I am 'phui tang', need to eat rice (so many days didn't eat liao), so I bugged Meow about having 'choo-char'. Yeahh...yummy dinner at 'Leng' Aunty's choo-char near my place. Curry fish meat, fried belachan chicken and fried kangkong with chilli. So damn full and satisfied.
Saw my ex-sch mate, G.Cheng. She's a kindy teacher now...I guess money's not everything.

Dropped by my home to feed Yoda & Sky Walker. Gave them some carrots and also new ball biscuits. They would carry the food and hide under the paper base...dun be deceived....still a lot of food down there! Naughty boys !

Dad came back from Church, asked about Meow's dad. He told us about neem leaves (daun mambu). A kind of leaf that is good for healing or preventing high blood pressure, diabetic, fever, cancer, arthritis, skin disorder, hair disorder, etc. For more information, visit :

Here's a picture of the tree. It's almost everywhere along the roads...some more it's free, provided you are not caught by MPPP.

Neem Leaves
Posted by Hello

Three of us (myself, dad and Meow) went out in the dark, collecting as much neem leaves as possible. We had almost half bag full (rubbish bag). Back to Meow's place, we saw one big tree just opposite his house. :p

We washed and soaked the leaves so that tomorrow can blend them with a little water, to be drank. Very good for diabetic.

We had supper at Mamak...ya ya, eat again lo....slept late...at least I felt better liao.

hehe..the morning-glory is for "food presentation", then i write on the folded paper in front of the dish - "Le neems de Gloria" to make it sound explicit and foreign... then mom can eat..hahaha. but must carefully find right leaves leh, after choose wrong leaves - mom will fell like a caterpillar!!

teetoo. studying leaves is my hobby now.

Teetoo, "Le neems de Gloria" - sounds like a nice dish. Makes me feel like trying it too. Good luck to your mom. ;)
