This is what we came to Muar for: Otak-otak. Fish and shrimp made into a paste, mixed with chilli, wrapped in banana leafs, and grilled.
I'm being a bit of a glutton here, but I'm having a double turkey burger with onion rings here.
All of this is cheaper than going to McD's for whatever I'd get there, and gets me more to eat.
Seriously:
10 ounces of ground turkey (precooked weight): About 99¢ (it's $1.57 a pound).
3 slices of bread: 18¢ (Loaf was $1.19, and I think there were 20 slices).
A whole bag of onion rings, 10-12 ounces: $1.49 (that's the whole bag, minus the six on the sandwich and the four I've eaten before the picture)
Soda, 2 liter bottle: 79¢
Cheese, 1 slice: 11¢ (I think there was 16 slices in the pack, and I think I paid $1.79 for it)
Not factoring in Mayo, BBQ Sauce, salt, pepper, parsley, etc., because those were purchased for $1 to $2 each months ago, so their amounts are negligible. :3
Not calculating the cost of the electricity consumed, because I don't have a kill-a-watt to calc the Foreman, and couldn't calc the oven/stove if I wanted to.
Cost as listed: $3.56 :)
March 2009. (12 pounds of a savory, spicy stew that I will voraciously devour in three days.)
Okra, corn... diced tomatoes, black beans, black-eyed peas, jewel yam, garlic, tofu, jalapeño... thyme, allspice, chili powder, cajun spice, sea salt, exotic peppercorn blend, "Jane's Krazy Mixed-up Seasonings".

Education pays off: that's the message. The legislator Lycurgus presented the people of Sparta with a moralistic comparison. He had raised two dogs in very different ways, the one as a well-trained hunting dog, the other as an undisciplined glutton. Lycurgus showed the consequences of this upbringing by feeding both dogs the same thing: a hare and a pot of food. The hunting dog immediately went after the hare, while the greedy dog ​​began to eat, as seen here in the foreground. Beside the legislator stands the faithful dog - Lycurgus puts his right hand on his snout appreciatively - with the captive hare on the steps of the dais.
Everdingen made the piece for the city hall of Alkmaar on behalf of the city council. Proud that the 'Education Committee' was allowed to contribute ideas about the education of Prince William III, the 'Child of State'. The story about Lycurgus is derived from the Moralia of the Greek writer Plutarch (c. 46-120 AD). Seventeenth-century Dutch translations existed of these ethical writings. According to Lycurgus, both reactions are the logical consequence of their upbringing. It is determined by natural ability, education and practice. Discipline of this is necessary to lead a virtuous life. The painting was intended for the Prinsenkamer, a room in the City Hall renovated in 1656. which was intended as a reception area for the stadtholders of Orange. The moralizing tenor of the performance has been associated by Bedaux with the upbringing of Prince William III, the later Stadtholder-King. After William II's death in 1650, the prince born in the same year was considered his intended successor. Much to the dismay of Grand Pensionary Johan de Witt, he was raised by his mother Henriette Maria Stuart (1631-1660). De Witt feared that the young prince would become prejudiced by the English court around his mother. For this reason, according to a resolution of September 25, 1660, the education of the prince was taken over by the States of Holland (hence the nickname of William III, the 'Child of State'). The Grand Pensionary himself took a seat on the Education Committee, just like representatives of the Knighthood of Holland and the cities of Alkmaar, Amsterdam and Dordrecht. However, after the death of Henriette Maria Stuart on December 24, 1660, the situation changed completely and on September 30, 1661 the States withdrew as guardians. It is essential for a good understanding of the painting that the city of Alkmaar was (co-)educator of the young prince for a short time in 1660-1661. This undoubtedly determined the choice of subject. The order must have been given to Caesar van Everdingen when there was still no suspicion of the change in guardianship with the death of Henriette Maria Stuart.

I'm not sure whether to say I'm amazed, bewildered, upset or fascinated by the way things work in India.
The difference between home and here is so great and there so many examples that it's hard to describe it except in huge generalities, but here's one example...
After planning a 4 day trip with a driver, we backed out after 1 day. Despite multiple email and phone confirmations, we found out at 5pm that we had no room reserved for tonight. I asked the driver this morning about the hotel and found it was impossible to communicate with him (again, despite confirming an English speaking driver). So, being fed up, we cancelled the whole trip and started over from square one.
We found a hotel and booked a new driver through a gov't tourist office within an hour. The guy above was a huge and honest help and we are now set for the next few days.
Oh and despite everything, we changed our flight to have an extra week in India (now leaving April 2nd). We're gluttons for punishment I guess.
Today reminded us of two things: how luxurious it was to stay with Dina in Mumbai and yes Sandra, where the hell is Mervyn when you need him?
Glide - then Dive
At sea they flap and then glide low over the water, often travelling in small groups. The only thing that stops their slow glide and relaxed flying is when they spot some food. When this happens the gannet then gains height to 30m (100 ft) or more above the surface of the sea and then after checking - the gannet tumbles into a spectacular nosedive, closing their wings at the last moment and making a huge splash on impact. They look to me almost like those paper rockets we used to make as kids - only much more spectacular of course.

Actually, this individual is taking food back to a nest box located a few yards from this tree.
Today's lunch with smoothy soya dessert.., because I had 2 times of breakfast!!! What a glutton-me in the morning :\
Glutton free cookies, chips, and a bottle of Coke out of sight. Knitting a rug, watching TV and petting a dog all a the same time. I worked my whole life for that one moment when I could say "I'm Retired!!!" Guess what? "I'm Bored!"
