Batik fans
I spotted these curious tiny flowers (about 1 cm in size) scattered all over the asphalt. I thought they were fake flowers from a broken bracelet or necklace.
A search with Google Lens identified these as Bakul flowers.

Growing up in the 60s, people rarely ate out and itinerant hawkers pedaled tricycle food carts and roved in neighborhoods, usually around dinner time. Haha! The computer is an anachronism.

Have never seen Bakul flowers over here..love Schweinshaxe!

Dear Dear Vero,
ReplyDeleteThe Bakul flowers have me intrigued. They are much like the Shiuli/Night Jasmine flowers that grow here. They fall off in the night and actually create a full blown white-orange fragrant carpet. They have orange stems.
Wrote about them here, in case you would like to know more:

All that lip-smacking food is now making me super hungry! And the Batik fans are lovely.
Thanks for swinging by and for the love and good wishes.
Biggest hugs xoxo

Beautiful small flowers, Veronica! They are very cute.
ReplyDeleteMany hugs.
The flowers are beautiful, I've never seen this before.
ReplyDeleteThe wall painting is beautiful and the food and Black Forest cake look delectable.
Greetings Irma
Just one of those pork hocks looks like enough for the whole family.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos today! You are making me hungry with the curry. :)
ReplyDeleteThose flowers are so pretty and interesting to grow in asphalt!
I must laugh about the "Schweinshaxe" in your Blog. I know this meal, but i prefer the cake from blackforest ;-)

I love schweinshaxe! It's a typical food of South Germany. I had it in Munchen some years ago.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen before such flowers all over the asphalt.They're also so colouful.
Nice post, Veronica!
Nice photos again, my Batik never looked anything like these examples! Schweinehaxe is very popular here in Germany, but I prefer the Schwarzwälder Kuchen! Huga, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThe batik fans are incredible. Amazing flowers, spicy curry and my favourite cake, what's not to like?
ReplyDeleteThese fans look so exquisite and special
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed these interesting photos.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! The fans are absolutely gorgeous! And the Bakul flowers are really interesting. It would be weird just seeing them in the street looking as if they grew out of of the paving.

Hello Veronica :=) Those fragile daisy like Bakul flowers have amazing strength to push their way up through the asphalt. You always come up with unusual things that most people either don't notice or have never seen. The Fans are extremely beautiful, and the Black Forest cake looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteAll the best.
At first I thought those flowers were growing out of the asphalt. That black forest cake looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteVeronica,
ReplyDeleteI love the food cart name "Curry Mee". That's just too cute! Mmm, Black Forest Cake, mmm. Now, I want some! :p
Veronica,
ReplyDeleteHmm, my comment disappeared. Maybe it's in your spam folder. Anywho, I love the food cart name, "Curry Mee". That's cute! And, yum I want some Black Forest Cake. I love chocolate!!
Those batik fans are drop-dead gorgeous! I want them all! And oh, that cake! I'm not even a chocolate cake fan but with the cherries that looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet the little flowers are, blooming for a time, then falling yet still fragrant.
ReplyDeleteLove the fabrics on the fans - so intricate and colourful.
Black Forest cake is SO delicious!
Everything sure is pretty and boy, I could eat that Black Forest Cake without any problems!
ReplyDeleteDelightful photos, I always enjoy them. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLovely art form Veronica.

ReplyDeleteHi Veronica,
ReplyDeleteI’m feeling so lucky to have found your blog. You pack a bunch of delightful photos into every post and now I look forward to each “Gallimaufry” … a new word for me and I love it. When we weave a variety of things together in a post, it’s sometimes hard, for me at least, to come up with a good title. Gallimaufry fills the bill! May I steal that for use occasionally? 😊 In this new post I love the Batik fans. And the way you were able to create those cool photos with flowers on the path … just really neat! “Curry Mee” looks interesting … how did you like it? And, OMG, Black Forest Cake. My oh My! 😊 #78 is excellent! And your recent comment on my blog made my day! Thank you Veronica, and take good care! Best regards to you from Seattle!

ReplyDeleteThose fans are delightful. So many different designs. Those tiny flowers are interesting. Sounds like a lovely fragrance. The black forest cake looks amazing. I love the "path" quote. That's very true, isn't it? I grew up in the 60's too, my dear friend. In fact, today is my birthday! haha
ReplyDelete~Have a happy May week.
