I am fine today.
My niece, Nga Ming, brought back a lot of goodies from Sarawak on Friday. Apart from various Foochow biscuits, she also brought different local fruits from the hometown, and most of them were planted by family members over there :-)
The best thing that she brought was Dabai - a local version of olive. The fruit is only available in Sarawak. Though most Sarawakian likes the fruit very much, most of the people here in Semanjung Malaysia do not appreciate it. My wife was also from Sarawak, so she likes the fruit, but our children were borne here, therefore they don't like the fruit. Therefore, this is something that my wife and I could enjoy without competing with the children :-)
