An update on my little gardening experiment. I’ve been keeping a close look on the seeds and they are growing everyday. It’s great to wake up everyday with anticipation wondering what they’ll be like. Some of the seeds aren’t growing though, and hopefully will pop out in the next couple days.
I use all sorts of herbs for cooking and thought it’d be nice to grow my own. Bought some seeds last year but never planted them until today. I browsed through couple books on gardening before planting the seeds. The books said there should be some space between each seed but I just sprinkled them all over haha. Must remember to check on them tomorrow.

Green tea bread, walnut and raisin scone with a cup of cappucino. You drooling? 
2 nerds came to my place just to mess with my brand new Gocco. They ended up wasting 2 sets of bulbs and screens!! *cries*
I was about to take a bath when M came in and asked if he could test out something in the tub first. Our gadget boy needed to test drive his new toy. What’s that yellow remote control for?!
It’s the tiny submarine we bought in MK!! Super cute and cool!! Sometimes I find joy from little things in life such as playing remote control tiny submarine at 12am in the bathroom with M.
Handsome picture of my new pet!! I wanna name him toto. =D
My other pets are doing well but they are camera shy.
Joop and UC came over for lunch and some fun.
UC trying to fix my limited edition blythe. The only one in this world with such funky hair which has been permed, hair sprayed, and cut to achieve such effect.
Evil Joop torturing my doll.
Like master like dog…Evil Cody bullying innocent grey.
Cody: Don’t you try to escape muahhaha.
Grey: help~~~
Parma ham + Rocket Lettuce + Balsamic vinegar + Olive oil = Super yummy!
French toast with banana on top for breakfast. =D
With my due date coming up in less than a month, I finally pushed myself to pack a bag for the hospital. Need to bring a bunch of stuff that might seem weird to people who don’t have such experience. Weird checklist includes net panties, maternity pads, breast pads etc. I really hope the baby will come out soon because a good night sleep is impossible with his constant kicking.
This is my bag..
Wanna see what’s inside?
tada!!
Today I went to Elements with Joop for lunch and some shopping. Normally I prefer to shop alone but Joop’s an exception. It’s always fun to shop with her especially when I manage to point her to the right direction…”Joop check this out!!” *showing her things that she would have missed if she shopped alone muhahahaha*.
Before our casual shopping began, we had lunch at a Shanghainese restaurant. I brought my 400D and Joop took a picture of me which turned out stupid looking as usual. Why do I ALWAYS look stupid when she’s the one taking pictures?! Here’s the prove:
We walked by a shop called “Cocktail” and since I’ve never checked out this store we decided to give it a go, and glad we did because we found something super cool!! First I spotted some super cute animal mask necklaces by Sabrina Dehoff and they were 50% off. Then suddenly Joop became so excited and told me to check out some chic earrings by comfort station. If you wanna see the earrings she got check out Joop’s blog I am pretty sure she’d post pictures of them hahahhaha.
Below are couple necklaces by comfort station. Aren’t they nice?
Here’s the cat mask necklace I got by Sabrina Dehoff. The leather cat mask is fluffy and cute. It reminds me of my black cats ^^.
To finish off our productive trip at Elements, we went to Three sixty for some healthy food. A lady at the bread section lured us over by offering us sample of their organic walnut bread. Joop took and a bite and grabbed one immediately!!
I wanted to make grilled pork chop with shallot so we went over to the meat section for some organic pork. I bought 4 pieces and M ate 3 of them at dinner!! You may all worship my cooking skill!!
I had to take a picture of these bottles when I saw them. Why? Because Fiji and Panna are my favourite water and they happened to sit side by side. Today I picked Panna…sorry Fiji I’ll give you some love next time.
I almost forgot to mention these socks we got at H&M. Hello kitty socks at H&M?! That’s right!! I don’t have anything hello kitty at home but these socks are quite nice plus they are super cheap I could just wear them at home.
Bubble with a puzzled look on his face, not knowing what’s going on. He walked around with a balloon tied around his neck for like 30 minutes hehe.
Good to see you again EV. A week in Hawaii and came back without a tan? How this girl never gets tanned remains a mystery.
I eat lot of fruits and this is the place I go to weekly for restocking. They have a great variety and the quality is impressive, not to mention the reasonable price. They also do phone delivery for free!! Today I bought some green plums, giant juicy peaches, cherries, blueberries and watermelon. Didn’t I tell you I love fruit? =D
Cody looking calm in this pic but he was pretty wild when I entered joop’s place. He and kiko were both jumping up and down scratching my legs damn it.
Skinny kiko looks fat in this pic haha.
Me: Kiko!
Kiko: Yes? =)
I think this picture shows the bond between joop and kiko. So sweet. I am sure joop will miss this naughty puppy. Will give you the big file of this pic joop.
Group pic!!
Initially Kiko was placed on my laps on the way to the airport. Then she started whining like crazy struggling to get away, and it’s never happpend before according to joop. I thought maybe she wanted to be with joop, so I put her on joop’s laps and she immediately became calm. Kiko is definitely loving her slave. hahahaha.
Joop has been babysitting a 2 month old shiba puppy named Kiko, and man did she turn into an exhausted mom LOL.
My first encounter with Kiko the crazy puppy…
The wonderful life of Joop includes cleaning after Kiko N times a day hahaha.
A rare moment of sanity when Kiko’s not causing trouble…
which lasted about 5 minutes. You might think from looking at this pic that Kiko’s the victim but don’t be fooled!! She’s the one who started the fight and Cody was just in self defense mode.
Kiko’s not giving up despite her size…look at her showing her teeth. Crazy doggie!
hahaha I loooove this pic.
Upon closer inspection you’d know why I love this pic so much LOL. This face is just way too funny.
With Joop’s interference, Kiko finally gave up…she’s exhausted.
Back to her luxurious prison.
Sleeping well in the afternoon after a long fight hahaha.
Second encouter with Kiko after a week…still the same old hyper puppy. At least she didn’t pee everywhere.
Cody wanted to go into the kitchen coz her mom’s inside with Kiko.
What’s she doing there? Having fun of course!!
Me + Kiko
Joop spending time with Cody.
And why did I visit her? To bring her from hell to heaven…by taking her to Sevva for afternoon tea. An exhausted mom deserves to be treated like a princess sometimes hahahahhaha.
I went to Shanghai for a few days with M. It was soooo damn hot over there 40C+ degree!!! We went to an area with a bunch of galleries, and while walking M had to drink water constantly.
This is the place we went to.
Another corner of the area…which doesn’t look like Shanghai at all. Quite a relaxing and artsy feel.
At the hotel being retarded.
Back to Hong Kong and went to a pet store called Whiskers and Paws with my friend Elaine. It was adoption day and a few puppies from Hong Kong dog rescue were available for adoption. Elaine wanted to check out the puppies and here’s one of them. This black puppy’s so cute. I heard she was adopted that day after we left. If you are thinking about getting a dog please consider adoption. There’s adoption day at Whiskers and Paws at the Horizon Plaza every weekend.
Finally decided to part with my iphone. I bought the Ericsson C902 which has the functions I need.
No more rain at last!! The weather’s soooo nice and hot it makes me happy. Recently I’ve been having lots of fun.
Ever since M and I moved to the new place our doggies have been getting way too much exercise walking up and down the stairs. The result:
Here’s my new toy thanks to Joop the camera junkie. This low tech pink vista quest is stupid but cool. 3M mega pixels which is less than the camera of your average mobile phone hahaha. Maybe just maybe I am attracted to pink round thing.
This vista quest produces pictures similar to an overpriced lomo camera. Here’s a test pic taken at shakey’s. When I showed M the pic and said “check this out it looks like a lomo pic”, he responded “that’s becoz they all have shitty lens”. Not surprised coming from M the high-end gadget boy.
Picture taken at chau chau’s wedding when I was about 5.5 months pregnant. ^^
Joop loves to hang out at my new place and plays cooking mama. She actually made something yummy this time. *shocks*
Joop and I at her place when I was about…hmm….4-5 months pregnant.
We went to petworld with our dogs for some fun. Petworld is a place for dogs to run around, swim, and socialize with other dogs. We went on a weekday so there were only a few dogs but cody and bubble enjoyed it nonetheless as long as they were allowed to go wild.
First time bubble in a life jacket…soooooo cute sea monkey!!
Cody wanted to rescue the piggie but he’s not keen to dive in. He kept running around the pool not knowing what to do ahhaha.
Finally…
He was able to rescue piggie the plastic ball. Good job cody!
Here’s my lovely eggs benedict just to make you all drool muhahahhah!!!!
