三菜一汤

Mommy prepared a simple dinner for us during the weekend -- 三菜一汤

1) Japanese Curry -- it's so simple as mommy just need to add meats and "cook".

2) Fried Egg -- 芙蓉蛋 but mommy's recipe only have egg + crab stick

3)Fried fish -- this is special cooked for me as I like fried fish rather than steamed fish.

4) Soup -- 六味汤

Simple right?

This is mommy's cooking, she always choose the simple dish to cook.

Children's Day

Friday was our Children's Day. No school on that day, it's a pot luck party.

School agenda as below:

1) Sing along

2) Prize presentation

3) Concert rehearsal

4) Pot luck

All the parents are requested to let the children brought at least 1 of our favorite food to school for sharing.

I got a prize for writing competition so mommy requested papa to come to school before 10:0am as the agenda showed 10:30am is the prize presentation. However, school did a last minute changed and by the time papa reached school, the prize presentation already done.

Mommy was not able to come as she just started new job and no leave for her yet.

Mommy baked some banana cakes for me to bring on that day. She baked it on Thursday's night.

Besides cupcakes, mommy also bought me 2 packs of Mimi(my favorite) for the party.

So many mini cupcakes..................big one is for teachers.

Small one is for the kids.

There are two flavor:

White paper cup -- plain banana cake.

Black paper cup -- chocolate chips banana cake.

See, there are so many food on that day.

Enjoying the food? Not really....I didn't finish the Char Mee Hoon.

This is the trophy I got for the writing competition.

My trophy, now I got 2! The previous one is from Choir Competition.

Second Trip To Damai Laut

We had a weekend trip to Damai Laut last week and this is my second trip to Damai Laut.

The first trip was back to Oct 2007. Wow! It has been 2 years.

We were not purposely went for holiday. Our main purpose is to attend mommy friend's wedding at Ayer Tawar. Damai Laut is about 30~45mins from Ayer Tawar, therefore mommy decided to stay in Swiss Villas, Damai Laut since we are member of SGI vacation club.

We used Ipoh exit and went to Fu San for dim sum breakfast.

Fu San has moved to new location -- a new restaurant with double storey.

After breakfast, we straight away went to Ayer Tawar to attend the wedding ceremony.

We just on time when we reached the groom's house.

Improved Drawing Skill

I was so surprise when Thung showed me her drawing this evening while I just back from work.

I just realized that her drawing skill has been improved so much if compare to previous drawn.

Am I too busy with my new job till I didn't pay full attention to her (especially on her school work)?

Or the attention has been shifted to 弟弟?

She told me she drew mommy, papa, ah mah & herself. When I asked where is 弟弟？

She realized she missed out 弟弟 and said she doesn't know how to draw 弟弟. She requested me to draw for her and insist "mommy carry 弟弟". Therefore, I added 弟弟 in the drawing (the right photo).

After that she drew another drawing - a house, sun, cloud, birds, road and mommy.

Then she drew an apple and spell out the word.

Another question pop up in my mind:

Should I send her to a craft/drawing class? ( I think she draw pretty good as my drawing skill just same as her :p)

But on the other hand, I also worry whether she able to cope if too many classes introduce to her. She already got a music class which going to next level where she needs more practice, no longer just sing and dance.

Besides, we will be very busy as her driver :(
