The king of fruits..

Durian...

There is a festival durian at Blok M Square, so we(me and my parents) headed to Blok M Square in the late morning. We bought onedurian , the weight about 2,5 kilos. Our durian not in this photo :0))

The durian is the fruit of several tree species belonging to the genus Durio. The name 'durian' is derived from the Malay-Indonesian languages word for duri or "spike", a reference to the numerous spike protuberances of the fruit, together with the noun-building suffix -an. There are 30 recognised Durio species, at least nine of which produce edible fruit. Durio zibethinus is the only species available in the international market: other species are sold only in their local regions.

Regarded by many people in southeast Asia as the "king of fruits", the durian is distinctive for its large size, strong odour, and formidable thorn-covered husk. The fruit can grow as large as 30 centimetres (12 in) long and 15 centimetres (6 in) in diameter, and it typically weighs one to three kilograms (2 to 7 lb). Its shape ranges from oblong to round, the colour of its husk green to brown, and its flesh pale yellow to red, depending on the species.


We(me) also bought new shirts..

Then we headed to our late aunt's house.
Tomorrow will be her 40 days since she passed away. There will be reading Qur'an at her house. We all miss you, dear aunty.

Hope you have a lovely day, blipchums! Enjoy your weekend! X
