MCO 3.0 - Day 17 (EMCO Day 05)

 26 May 2021     Day 17 of Movement Control Order 3.0

                           Day 05 of Enhanced Movement Control Order

        After surpassing the 7,000 mark yesterday, today's figure of new Covid-19 cases rose further. Can anyone still remain unaffected, as cool as a cucumber, wave this off as something that hits other people but will not touch him? Some friends are already in panic mode, praying fervently that the vaccination process can be accelerated, willing to clutch at any straw. Who can blame them? With 7,478 new infections and a record high of 63 fatalities today, it can render even the usually rational people to shake like a leaf.

        Hubby must have been quite happy with today's dinner as he waxed lyrical of the prawns, scallops and pasta whilst editing the photos that he took. For this blog, I am solely in charge of the words, while he usually helps with the pictures. But today, he talked about "dancing scallops" and "shy prawns", and requested that I include these poetic descriptions in the blog. 😝


Pumpkin Soup is served with Prawns and Scallops Spaghettini

It would have been ideal to have cherry tomatoes instead of their bigger counterparts, some fresh parsley and perhaps some larger scallops, but in these dangerous times, I don't think it's wise to make a trip to the supermarket just to get these. I made do with what's available in the kitchen.




I'm so tired I can only see my comfortable bed now, but hubby sees "dancing scallops" and "shy prawns" on this bed of pasta.
