My mini extension that have 4 usb port which fit to put in my handbag

I have been using a small adapter which able to fit in my handbag for daily commute (the top one in below image). Since most of the time, normally there are only one wall socket available to be used. Such as prayer room or in eatery are such as McDonalds and etc.. Therefore, I always make sure to bring my adapter so that someone else able to use the power plug for their laptop or etc.

My current adapter on the top. Bottom is my new mini extension that hav 4 usb port

Example to show difference between these two (2) item. The mini extension provide extra advantage since the cable length is 1.5 metres and enable me to use my phone while charging easily

Close up picture
Comparison between my current extension  (on the right) with the mini extension (on left)



The cable length difference between my long extension (2 metres) and the mini extension (1.5 metres)

Can see clearly the mini usb able to fit in handbag compare to the long extension

Sorry for the leg. But justan evidence to show how cosy and comfortable you are able to charge your phone and still able to use it although the wall plug is high and far
What I like with this mini extension is:
1) small size. Able to fit my handbag for daily commute
2) able to use power port to charge my laptop or etc while traveling
3) the long cable length is an advantage for me to use even a far or high mounted wall socket, anywhere and everywhere

Digging my first sweet potato at the side of my house

I plant my sweet potato using sectional cut last September 2016.
By 17 September 2016,  my sweet potato is growing more and started to creeping out to other places.
I decided to dig for my sweet potato last weekend for my breakfast. After almost 98 days (3 months and 7 days) from the date it was planted.

Digging process
The outcome from digging

The sweet potato only weigh 100 gram
The steamed sweet potato while I was boiling eggs for breakfast that day


The taste is sweet. Sweeter for me since I harvest fresh this morning

My cat, Dell smelling on my pulasan tree
Seems like I should wait 5 months instead of 3 months to harvest my sweet potato.
Till then, be safe while gardening.

My attempt growing pumpkin from seeds in the bought pumpkin

I get the seeds from inside of pumpkin that I bought for cook. Then put the seeds directly on fertilized soil last 7 November 2016 and water it consistently everyday.
From what I read, it took 5 to 10 days to grow leaves [1].
On 15 Nov 16. Leaves sprouting after 8 days I put the seeds directly on soil 

By 16 Nov 16. After 9 days
Can see a huge difference of the leaves growth between 15 Nov 16 and 16 Nov 16. It is only 1 day difference.


Picture taken on 30 Nov 16. Close up after replant on permanent location

Picture taken on 1 Dec 16. After several days moving the pumpkin on permanent location
Nutrition from 245 gm pumpkin [3] would have few vitamins such as:
- folate 6%,
- Vitamin A 245%
- Vitamin C 19%
- and etc
Nutrition from 245 gm pumpkin [3] would have few minerals such as:
- calcium 4%
- iron 8%
- magnesium 6%
- manganese 11%

Well the nutrition contains in the pumpkin is more that enough for me to have in daily basis.

This is actually for fun experiment that I do. Rather than I just throw away the seeds after cooking, I decided to recycle to try to grow new pumpkin tree. 
It is really nice to see my attempt succeed. And I might get to harvest pumpkin from this plant. Where it would take 95 to 120 days for the pumpkin to be ready after sowing [2].
