*The Sick Dog

Our poor pet dog is suffering from artheritis and is on daily dosage of pain killer.  I can tell that Rimadyl works better than our previous meds as he is more lively and looking forward to his daily walk in the park.  The kids has been looking forward to play fetching again once the dog is fully healed. Hey, they even massage him to make him feel so good.  Now I am so jelous!

*Pet Dog Business

My Little Girl is very scared of our new pet dog but she loves to bully them by making the barking sound at him.  Whenever she saw the dog taking it’s nap,  she will tip toe and make a loud barking sound to startler the dog. Talking about which, we are running out of dog supplies again.  Must make a remind to pick up some dog food this afternoon.

Roselle Drink & Flash Photography

The other day my Sister gave me a big plastic bag of her home grown organic Roselle. The buds is so pretty!  So ang-ang (red)!  The best way to bring out the shot is by having a white background.  This is how i do it.

Lay a piece of white paper as the background.  Use a white ceramic bowl.  Switch on your flash and viola!  You get white background and a shadow.  Unlikecropping of the background which will make your subject look so fake.

Now that I’ve got the shot taken, it’s time for cooking.  The taste of Roselle drink is very close to Ribena  minus the colouring and artificial flavouring.

Peel the petals.  Discard the seed. Boiled the petals in water for 30 minutes and sweetened the drink with rock sugar.

This Daddy hor, he is very weird wan.  I asked him to get me a packet of rock sugar.  He always come back with 2 packets of sugar anything!  Now that remaining one packet of rock sugar is taking up space in my fridge. *blueh!*

Chilled Roselle in the fridge.  Do not discard the buds as they are consumable. Another flash photography on the drinks.

The Hip Hop Dance Challenge

Few days ago, we was watching a Hip Hop Dance competition on teevee.  This is how the competition goes. There are three contestant. Everyone need to show a few Hip Hop movement and the one awe the judges most win.  My 7 years old son was watching it with “eye popping-jaw dropping-salivar drooling-lost in the world” concentration.  Breaking the silence, I dare him to challenge me.

Same rules, each person should out beat the other with a Hip Hop movement.  He was more excited than me!  Rolling his shoulder, pulling up his sleeve and he challenge me with his first movement:


*rolling eye*  The Hip Hop way of handstand

Now my turn *ahem*.  The Mummy doesn’t know Hip Hop but you know, most of their dance movement is so closed to Yoga.  Drum rolling…


The Kondinyasana
(Ya la tu, I know I got a dem fat thigh. Can stop staring at it now unless you can recommend  diet pills that works for the thigh.)

You should look at the expression on my 7 years olds son!  His eyes popped out and jaw dropped one more time!  That is a priceless moment! LOL!

This time he beh kam muang (don’t want to give in).  He took a deep inhalation, pull up his sleeve again and challenge me his second movement:

*waving white flag*  I can’t do a cartwheel.  He was darn happy that he won!

Everybody, clap hand la!

The Bookworm’s Baby

My Third BIL (Brother-In-Law) is a bookworm.  He had nice collection of books that was nicely kept and arranged.  Too bad they are all in Chinese.  I was at my Sister place last weekend and the more I look at his row and rows of books, the more I find them fascinating.   Suddenly my inspiration came and I ended up with this:

Baby Ezekiel @ 13 days old.  This is my most favourite shot for now.  Will save them as my wallpaper.

Jonathan Getting A Home Haircut

My nephew Jonathan never like haircut.  The last time he had a haircut, he came home with a big ‘hole’ on the fringe.  I just had to laugh at him so hard! LOL!  His Mummy, that is my Sister decided to gave him a hair cut trim a month later.

Day after days, this favourite nephew of mine has grown so much more macho than before.  I’m not saying he is not macho previously.  I just love how he looks like right now and that bak-bak (fleshy) body.  Love him to bits! This is another new sets of photographs of him that I love.

I didn’t know he was so ‘itchy’ until I review the photographs on my laptop.  Yikes, he is making me itchy too.

p/s:  I’m not surprised if someone commented that my son is cute.  This always happen cos they don’t bother to read and comment for the sake of commenting.  Some even say, “you are cutting your son’s hair so who is taking the photograph?” *stick out tongue*  Don’t know should be happy or sad.

The Angelic Look

She may fool you with that droopy look but the very next moment when she removed her finger from the mouth, fuyoh, like monster only.  Took these pictures of no.3 when we was in the hospital visiting my Sister and her newborn.  Didn’t know No. 3 was sitting at the lounge all by herself taking her ‘fix’.  She looks like she has been drugged!  Somemore can help me to jaga my bag. LOL!
