Asinan.. Anyone?

Asinan is...

a pickled (through brined or vinegared) vegetable or fruit dish, commonly found in Indonesia. The term asin is Indonesian word for "salty", which refers to the process of preserving the ingredients by soaking them in a solution of salty water. Asinan is quite similar to rujak', which is usually served fresh, while asinan is preserved vegetables or fruits. Of the many types and variations of asinan in Indonesia, the most popular are asinan Betawi and asinan Bogor.
Asinan Betawi: The vegetable asinan of the Betawi people from Jakarta is preserved Chinese cabbage, cabbage, beansprouts, tofu, and lettuce served in a thin, hot, peanut sauce with vinegar, topped with peanuts and krupuk (especially krupuk mie).
Asinan Bogor: The fruit asinan of Bogor city, West Java is preserved tropical fruits, such as raw mango, water apple, papaya, ambarella, jicama, nutmeg and pineapple served in sweet, hot and sour vinegar and chili sauce, sprinkled with peanuts.

Not much happened today.
Woke up in the morning at 6am, jogging alone without A.
Talk about A, have i told you that A got a new job? He works in an online news company, we're working in the same group company.
In the afternoon, me and my parents went to my Mom's friend wedding party, her friend's daughter is married today, and her daughter is also my friend. Then headed back to home.
Took a nap, then the rain came down and greeted Jakarta, so there wass no chance for me to go out and find something good to be photographed and I uploaded to blip, I just got this Asinan picture for today. You want to try it?

If you have time to spare, i've uploaded a photo, a backblip on Saturday. Thank you.

Hope you are all doing well and have a nice day! x
