Fungus Part 3

I wish I have more time with the greens and see new things in my yard. As tomorrow is the "Good Friday" public holiday in Sabah, today we are given extra holiday which called 'cuti peristiwa' in my workplace. Not all schools are having this extra day but since mine is a mission school than we got something extra special. Not rushing as always for work I took a walk with my daughter to see if I can find new fungus growing. The walk was not frustrating yet it gave me some of these new fungus. I saw some different ones and same fungus, anyway just to highlight my extra holidays and weekends here are some of the new and old species that I found..

just like two golf balls, except one was smaller..

this can be eaten, but not enough for one plate..

Pumpkin for Lunch

I was wondering what to cook for lunch today when I saw this two big pumpkins hubby got from the garden and decided to cook it even though I was a bit lazy to get the pumpkin skin peeled and cut as it was big and heavy and needed quite an energy to cut it open.

Finally I managed to cut about a quarter size of pumpkin..

Half an hour later pumpkin cooked with chicken meat was produced..

Tadaa ..still hot they were smoking..

that's my tale for today's lunch..fresh from the garden and into the wok :)

It is much closer to a butterfly I think. Since it has a feathery antennae I assumed it is a moth as butterfly's antennae is thin and slender.
