An Old Cupboard with an Old Story



the first shot taken

a second look

This particular old cupboard, as far as I can remember has existed since I was small . It was sold to my father for a mere RM10.00,  together with an old wall clock which also cost him another RM10.00. That was many years ago when RM10.00 can buy a week , or maybe 2 week's grocery supply.

Cute Flower Pots ...made-in-china old collection



the recent trip back home visiting my hometown was just for a 
few days  but I was happy because beside getting the chance
 to a few 'food tasting'  trips to try out the
gulai lemak  cili padi and sambal gesek in  Kendong ,
 located nearby Tampin town  and  
meeting up an antique collector there, 
  lempeng kelapa and mee curry  at a small 
roadside eatery in Chengkau
just by the mosque of Kg Tanah Datar ,
also the usual roti canai nek Munah  at 
Sungai Petai, Alor Gajah,

I found three pieces small hand-painted flower pots 
(pic shown above)
to add to my collection of 'made-in-china ceramics.
