Selfie with my pisang lemak manis and pisang tanduk fruits.

I take some selfie of me today with both pisang lemak manis and pisang tanduk at home last 29 January 2019. Since many people always ask whether I really plant both pisang lemak manis and pisang tanduk at home.
With my pisang lemak manis fruits.


With my tall pisang tanduk fruits at the back.
Both banana fruits can be harvested early April 2019.

The look of my tattered and battered pisang tanduk.

Last 4 February 2019, the leaves all broken for good. Despite my attempt spraying my home remedy to the tree trunk [1]. Suspetected combination attack from pest and wind.
The sound of the wind taken last 6 February 2019. It was very strong sound.

This pictures of my pisang tanduk is taken last 3 February 2019.

Yesterday I manage to spray my home made growth hormone to the tree trunk [2]. Hopefully it will assist the tree to produce new leaves. So that it will stay alive and bear good fruits for me.

Reference:

New shoot from blackberry cutting.

Very happy to see new shoot coming out from the blackberry cuttings that received last 30 January 2019 [1]. Basically it took almost 9 days to grow new shoot. All thanks to the germinating tips from my gorgeous Dr Kelly Chua, UTHM.
Means I would be able to have my blackberry bushes at home soon. Really like having a dream come true. As I used to read such in Enid Blyton's book only.
The pretty look of the blackberry new shoot.

Deep cleaning my make up brushes.

After a week of delay, I manage to deep clean my make up brushes this Friday, 8 February 2019. It does feel like a huge achievement for someone who is still under headache inducing cough. Where I get less of sleep due to the cough last night.
The freshly washed make up brushes of mine.
I am trying hard to discipline myself to wash and used clean make up brushes every weekend.

Truly satisfied with my make up look after using my custom Morphe brush set.

At first I thought my make up looks better due to different primer usage. But looking at  my make up after Maghrib prayer, I do know it is all due to my custom Morphe brush set [1,2]. I am using my Samsung J7 Prime (upgraded with Android version 8.1.0) with the aid of my mini LED light [3,4]. This is taken late evening of 28 January 2019.
