fun at pool

Our family spent a good dip in the pool last Sunday. Of cos, Cher was the most excited of all when we told her that we're going swimming. Most importantly, weather was great at 3pm & I managed to snap a couple of great shots of Cher.

You know, I almost failed to download my photos to the PC thinking it was my memory card/camera problem (was it illusion or what or because I'm sooo dying to get a Canon EOS or Nikon D80?? Arghhh) Well, fortunately or unfortunately, it was my card reader problem LOL! Dream on again for DSLR.

hoot hoot [good luck]

Owls are seen as a good luck symbol all over the world which is also a popular symbol for Japanese, who call them “fuku-rou”. And now, they're popular even in scrapbooking! So, it's never too many to have them in the house. Doing simple craft like this make us happy. Well, at first Cher called these 'birds' instead of owls but I've to say she's not totally wrong as owls are part of the bird family too! Another good way use up my AC thickers with these foam owls! Such fun!

i'm good to go

I have been procrastinating working on the article assignment for months (since 4Q 2006). And now, I'm good to go! I've emailed my article to the managing editor and my article and artwork has been approved (one off my load for now). I'll be mailing all of my artwork to them next week. The article will be featured August this year and hopefully I'll be able to take a few shots and post here. So, do check back. :D

happy anniversary and some scrappy stuffs

Today is our 13th anniversary! Time flies! We decided to stay home & dh requested for some sushi. I made lots of makis and sushi rice balls. I even made extras for my baby sitter's family and it's good to hear people telling me how yummy those sushi are. Pics shown are just the few of them :D

Japanese Makis - fillings are all DH's favorite - pork floss, unagi, tuna moya, etc


Sushi rice balls


Lots of loves and hearts :D


Anniversary LO


One of my favorite


I think something is wrong with my camera :( The bottom right corner of every shot I took turned out to be blurry. I suspect it could be due to some vapour within the lens.

what a thing to happen!!!

The rear of our car's windscreen got smashed into pieces at the hubby's workplace last night! We believed it was done by some drunken. Sigh, that's all I can say...

hello farm friends

These are Cher's latest craze - her little farm friends. As usual, got these wooden toys from my favorite place at Daiso - S$2 for a pack of 3 figurines. Really cool stuffs one can find there! She got a little bored with her current lego set and has been bugging me to get her more stuffs. I am not really keen to get her too many of those Duplo set so these should make her happy for now. hehe. Good thing is, she gladly accepted those in addition to her current lego set. :D
