wonder where to get my supply of honey after i finished these 4 bottles.

spices are from Shaury  Damansara.

NOTE: cinnamon powder that we buy from Mc Cormick are not real cinnamon.

they are cassia.
read up on the difference between cassia and cinnamon.

this is why im really busy when im in KL.
we drive around to get all these.
i think it drives hubs nuts but hello? they are for our kitchen.
the entire family benefit from these.
:p

so well, we went to Shaury with the intention to get cinnamon. then i bought cayenne. then he introduced me to their pepper and being a woman, ended up buying that as well.

which is why they suggest us to get a shopping list and not buy something not in the list!

unnecessary expenditure :p

 drove all the way to Selayang market for this.
biggest market in Kuala Lumpur.
worthy!

5kg of california medjool dates.
RM 190

outside sells RM290 - RM 300+

Bard Valley dates rocks!

pitted

also bought a box of 5kg without pit. RM 70?

dates can increase breast milk!
dates = kurma


it was a whole seller so we need to buy in bulk.
spent RM400+


we also bought a large box of blueberries.
contains 12 small boxes. RM 70 - 80

kj loves the berries.
phew.

told him we cant afford to eat otherwise.

you can get these berries very cheap in seasonal countries so why pay more in malaysia?

im trying to buy more local fruits which are as nutritious as well.

there u go, my busy schedule in KL.
selayang, shah alam. damansara. kajang (non food stuff)

and the amount spent before coming back here before raya.

and the weight!
