Back in 2007, a friend suggested that the ID for this Earth ginger should be Etlingera coccinea. However, I wasn't so convinced as it didn't really looked like those I googled. But I didn't any good reference books on Gingers, so I excepted what he proposed.
Finally Axel help to ID as E. megalocheilos which looks more close & agreeable to me. :)

Earth Gingers - Etlingera
Tobiko Pasta
I fond of quick & easy meals. No fuss & easy to cleanup. I remembered reading somewhere about using Japanese Tobiko (Flying Fish Roe) with Italian Pasta.
This was really easy to prepare.
1. Cook pasta (read instructions on package)
2. Brown minced garlic in Olive Oil
3. Toss pasta into Garlicky Olive Oil
4. Finally, sprinkle Tobiko over ... toss evenly
And I feel that it goes well with eggs too!

Parking Blues
I always find parking a car the most arduous driving task. My parking skills is something that I don't pride myself with. Not until I see this ~ finally I gladly comfort myself that my parking skills wasn't that bad after all. ;P
Another aspect of parking I try avoid is doing parallel parking. Thanks to strategically marking (done by my instructor) in my test car during driving test, I went thru test without a glitch.
But back to the real world, I'm really avoiding parallel parking at all cost. Well, not until I can master this parking method from Precision Driver Legend, Russ Swift. :D
