happy valentines day!!

This year...my valentine was celebrated in a very simple way...no fancy restaurant at all...just some basic homecook food...

Well...on Friday...(13-2-09) he sent me flowers....flowers to my office...I guess I was the first one to receive....

Then it was followed by a trip to The Body Shop..where I buy him a gift and vice versa...

for him

for me

Then came the real day...went to the market in Pulau Tikus to buy all the ingredients needed for the night's dinner....

at bout 6pm...I started cooking....first up is the bolognaise spaghetti...thinking of doing some other flavour...I came up with the creme mushroom flavour...just add whipping creme and an egg yolk to beat together...to have the creamy taste...then can start stirring with the seafood ingredient and lastly add in the spaghetti...hehe...

here are some photos to show...enjoy!!

he said my cooking is worth 70 marks...hahaha...he said if 80 marks can go and open a stall liao...hehehe...seriously this is the only type of dish I know best....if u ask me to cook chinese food...I will be like.....fighting with the pots and pans..hehe...

have a heart people.....Sponsor a child today!!

Hey...recently in the press, there is this news featured in the newspaper...

When I saw this title, I was curious. As I read on, then only I realise that there is this children sponsorship going on. All this while I thought that I could only watch it in the HK movies. Now only did I realise that I could actually sponsor a child too.

I still have a very vague idea about it. So while I was working one day, I receive an e-mail. They are coming over to Penang at WOU main campus to give a talk. So I have called them up to book a place for the talk.

I attended the talk on SaturdayFebruary 5th.

Lee Sin Je and Deborah Henry gave the talk. The talk is definitely an eye opener. I learnt more about the process. How to go about sponsoring a child. After the talk, I immediately sign up to be one of the sponsors for the children. You get to choose the children from 4 countries. They are Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and South Africa. I chose VIETNAM. You can choose to pay by credit card or wang pos. Each month you will pay RM50 to them(only RM50..u can also do it right??) So in total it will be RM600 per year. cheap right?? its better u sponsor the needy children than to spend it on shopping like buying all the unwanted things right?

Ok. The RM50 you pay each month will not directly go to the children personally. Instead it will go to the World Vision organisation. they will then use ur money to build schools, tap water, well, buy clothes and all the things the children need. It acts some sort like donation but with a child assign to you. I have already paid up the RM50 and is now waiting for a photo of my child!

We are allowed to write letters to them and also buy some small gifts for them. There will also be trips organise by the World Vision where we can join to go and visit the child we sponsor...

Good right??!! We get to do charity and go travelling. We even have a child.

hahaha...interested?? just go to www.worldvision.com.my to sign up as sponsors and also to learn more on how to be a sponsor.

oh ya....if you do not want to sponsor, then u can sign up to be a volunteer. I have actually sign up for both.

Come on....don't wait anymore....put your money into good use...( i m a stingy person and yet i can do this) WHY CAN'T YOU!!

love is in the air!!

hehe...looks like Valentine's Day is just round the corner. Opposite bubu's coffee shop there are 3 florist..looks like they are in a tough fight this year..let's..there is the Eden Florist, the Arcadia Florist and the other one(I can't remember the name as there are no decorations at all! hmmph..lousy). The other both decorated their shops nicely but I have to say that the Arcadia florist stands out more as the colour contrast and the big hearts stands out more..(not to forget there is a big cow holding a rather big heart as well!!) than the colour used by Eden where it is a bit dull for the occasion..(they too have cows as decoration...theirs is on a swing...looks more suitable for wedding though)

Let's do a bit of comparison...

The Eden Florists

This shot from the opposite

This shot taken right in front of their shop..

Arcadia Florist

Shot taken from opposite..(the motor block my cow!! wtf!!)

a much clearer view of the cow from the opposite...

this cow is just too cute to resist..have to take a much nearer shot of it...c...cute rite!!

after doing the comparisons... to me... ARCADIA FLORIST is the WINNER....

What do you think??

also one more point to support my result...I have been seeing a lot of customers going in to the shop...mostly male customers...(altho I did saw some old ladies walking in also)
