Pizza fest on Father's Day
Spotted these unique purple flowers by a roadside drain. Not sure what they are though.

The Malays and Peranakans use the Butterfly Pea as a natural blue dye for cakes, rice, dumplings and beverages.
A funny video to share
Gotta love the cheeky banter!
Her: This is my clitorial bush.
Him: Laughs nervously. That is called a clitorial bush?!

Love to see these unique flowers!
ReplyDeleteHope your lockdown is over.
Take care! :-)
Mussels on a pizza? I don't think I've seen that before! I am curious too. Is your lockdown over? Hope it is!
ReplyDeletebetty
Lol... I can understand Gordon's hesitation :D
ReplyDeleteLovly purple color of the tea!
Hi from my Huawei, we have never seen an okra - how does it taste like?
ReplyDeleteNow I like really, really want a pizza!!
Beautiful skywatch-shots. The genus sure made me laugh!
Haha for Gordon.
I became "aga-aga", too.
Beautiful post Veronica, filled with wonderful and inspiring photos, a great selection. And love the funny at the end! Thanks for sharing, have a great weekend, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI like the series of photos. In a way, it looks like everyday life.
ReplyDeleteI like what the sky looks like and I like the idea of coloring food and drink with flowers.
I wish you a nice weekend, Veronica!
Belas fotos e algumas bem deliciosas.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e bom fim-de-semana.

That is one impressive view! And that Butterfly Pea is so beautiful! ��
ReplyDeleteI could have fun with the name of that flower, but I had better rein myself in!
ReplyDeleteDear Veronica,
ReplyDeletehaha - really an interesting plant with special properties and a VERY special name ;-DD
WOW, you have a breathtaking view from your balcony! Your food photos whet my appetite ... These roadside shrines also met us everywhere in Thailand ... there is something similar in Austria too, we call it "Marterl" - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bildstock
Thank you for your lovely lines on the blog!
All the best and happy weekend, Traude
This was a wonderful full of imagery post, Veronica Lee. We also have great views from our 5th floor apt windows, but I suspect your condo views are higher up. The pizza fest looked delicious with so many choices😋
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous collection of photos. I want to get my hands on a slice of that seafood pizza, it looks amazing! Very funny video too. :D
ReplyDeleteThose are terrific photos, we had fried okra the other day!
ReplyDeleteHi Veronica,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! The Clitoria ternatea is a very pretty flower :)
Have a nice weekend!
My phone is Huawei too and I'm very happy with its camera:-)) All your photos are great.
ReplyDeleteLoved the video. Loved the bush. I laughed out loud.
ReplyDeleteI want some of that dinner.
Love the pizzas too.
Have a fabulous day and weekend. ♥
Can't see the video but love your photos. We are having pizza for supper tonight. Enjoy the weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe Butterfly Pea is gorgeous, I had never heard of it. And the sun between the buildings is STUNNING, so beautiful!! That may be my favorite here. Do you watch Gordon Ramsey? We do! I love the little mouse running across the top of your blog.
ReplyDeleteAwesome skywatch. Is that a once or twice a year happening?
ReplyDeleteYou have a lovely view from your balcony!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colours in your photos, specially the ones you took from your balcony. Also, all that food look so delicious!

Enjoyed these photos very much.
ReplyDeleteI love the flowers they are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteBuon fine settimana
ReplyDeleteyour photos are beautiful and what an amazing view from your home. my favorite is the okra, the photo is beautiful and it makes me long for it. my dad grew okra in his garden when i was growing up.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, all!
ReplyDeleteHello friend!!!... Very cool and varied compilation of pictures... Have a great day 💞
ReplyDeletePizza with shrimps, squids, and mussels is my favorite! I also like that pizza with pink onions and olives.
ReplyDeleteI've had yellow (lemon/orange), pink (strawberry), and green (mint) drinks, but not a purple one :-) ... Anyway, I wouldn't my mind a glass of that purple drink. Great pictures of the sunshine between the two towers!
A nice weekend to you!
ha ha you made me laugh about the purple flower. The food looks good but I'm wondering about the tall green thing, kinda looks like either a bitter melon or okra.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteThe flower is lovely. Beautiful sky shots.
The pizza looks delicious, I love pizza.
Lovely images and mosaics.
Have a happy day and a great new week!
that sunset looks amazing and the pizza fest seems delicious! What a great range of toppings you got! :)
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a good weekend :) It's another chilly winter day here, but we still spent a little time at the playground this morning :)
Away From The Blue
A lovely post. The pizzas look so delicious and varied in flavour. I laughed at the Latin name of the Butterfly Pea!
ReplyDeleteThe purple flowers looks magical ♥.♥
ReplyDeleteGostei bastante das suas fotos. São admiráveis!
ReplyDeleteLindíssimas flores e comida saborosa!
Abraços e boa semana.

The seafood pizza looks so delicious! I love this collection of photos!
ReplyDeleteLove the Father's Day pizza fest!
ReplyDeleteJenna
...those pizzas are amazing, but don't the shells get stuck in your teeth?
ReplyDeleteThat Purple flower is gorgeous! You know, that is my favorite color. Looking out to the skies from your balcony is lovely. And the pizza looks so Yummy! We have that same white flower with the brown ring inside in California. I think it's the most unique and pretty flower. It even looks prettier in your photo with a few drops of water on it. : )
ReplyDelete~Sheri
You've been getting some great shots from your balcony--the helicopter, this sunset.
ReplyDeleteLove the flowers.
Those pizza pictures are making me very hungry.
The unique purple flowers (photos after the roadside shrine) is called blue Porterweed. It attracts butterflies, so you can find them in butterfly gardens. In Florida, they grow like weeds!
ReplyDeleteHahaha! I can't blame Gordon for that reaction either. Lovely photos as always!
ReplyDeletelove your photos and the smile at the end
ReplyDeleteA great series of shots! But shellfish on pizza? That's a new one on me!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing at http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2021/07/bath-time.html
I always enjoy your colorful collections.
ReplyDeleteNice post and love the photos hope you saved me a pizza heheh!
ReplyDeleteHave a pizzatastic week 👍
lol, much beauty in your garden :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images! The pizza looks delicious, minus the mussels, which I don't eat.
ReplyDeleteThose pizzas look good. I love the photos of the sun between the buildings.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't see the video. It says it is blocked in my country on copyright grounds. The flower is very pretty and it is clear to see how it was named.
Great shots, love the sun with the buildings. The Huawei takes great photos. Our new P30 is even better than the last one which was really nice.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots and I had a slice of each of those pizzas. Yummy and thank you for posting those.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday, Veronica. ♥
They are all really great. Love each and every one
ReplyDeleteA lovely variety of photos! I will never see a flower like that the same way :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your link at My Corner of the World this week!
