風信子好香呀

來看看花兒怎樣生長!

CNY cakes without oil

Informed by my colleague about this method. So I have to try it as I have already got baking sheets at home. 
What a wonderful way to make the cakes less oily! Thumbs up. 
As you can see they turn brown! 
Soft, non-greasy and crispy taro cakes! Yeah!

Eleana 33 Birthday Dinner (Feb 6)

Meeting up with Tv host lean lean on Chor 7, everyone's birthday! 
Having a nice Korean BBQ dinner in TST. Great chat as usual! Look forward to the next birthday celebration.......a remarkable one for Choy Choy Zi 
Fanny's pregnancy look :)
Three three three three three 
Having Tony Wong's Napoleon Cake. 
This afternoon I sent the wrong message to the birthday girl, asking if I should buy a cake from quarry bay. Wakaka! So silly! The birthday told me that Jennifer has ordered it already.

CNY 2014 - 年初三

Finally fried some turnip cake as breakfast. This was actually bought by boss for every staff. Nice cake from butterfield which shares the same recipe with The Peninsula. 
Horse did not eat the cake! He prefers grass. 
Lazy Kailan was sleeping in the living room like a normal day. So relaxing! 
Ah Lun is gambling tonight with his dad. So many jokes throwing out in the table. XDD!

CNY 2014 - 年初二

Today we decided to visit Tsing Yi Park's 桃花林。Following the foliage season, we have 桃花 in the CNY period. We cannot complain! 
Though some of the flowers are pretty dried, there are still some flowers in full blossom. 
The sky is so clear today, and the sunlight has made the flowers more beautiful. 
This is taken by iPhone 5s. We did use DSLR, let's see if I have time to upload them later. 
After the photo-taking mission completed, we went to the gym to do the first exercise in year of the horse. The gym was very busy today surprisingly. 
New red dri-fit tee for CNY exercise! During the sales, I got too many discounted sports wear. 
Today the walking at park and the gym session had made me breaking the fuel record again. 
It's a good compensation for the heavy Chinese family dinner tonight.

CNY 2014 - 年初一

The first thing in the morning is to take a look at my little garden and seeing the flowers under the great sunlight!! It's such a pretty day, awesome Chor 1.
The wall of drawings is clearer also with the sunlight. Yeah. 
Our regular routine on Chor 1 is visiting my parents' home first. 
A more healthier choice of CNY gift. The apple juice tastes good. Apart from this, we brought over the delicious awefully chocolate cookies. 
So pretty! 
Lovely turnip cake by mom
Ready to go to the next stop! Meeting dad in law at the temple in Sai Kung.
Love this random picture - father & son
We visit grandma in law for dinner to wrap up Chor 1. Wonderful and happy day! 






Happy Birthday Ton & Ball

We are having monster sushi, oysters and western soup made by tiger mum. 
The red wine party started after this photo. No one wants to leave especially me who took a long nap in the afternoon. ;) I even missed the alarm clock so I was late today. It's so classic! 


2014 CNY - 年三十

Today I am off, so the plan is to visit the flower market as usual. The flowers are so expensive this year, leaving us not many choices. We bought three shades of peonies and some carnations, plus a few potted flowers. 
It's such a sunny day! 
Interesting flowers! 
Cute name!
Flower shopping mission completed. 
A little bit of shopping in harbour city before we go home. 
I started drawing the beautiful greetings on the left. He added some more but obviously he is thinking about something fun...
He added a nice line for Kailan in the end. 
Well, Kailan did not know what we were doing....cute face
In the last few hours of the day, I finish the laisee packing. It's so difficult this year becoz muji is not selling the red packets anymore. I also ordered sth from taobao but the order was not successful in the end. So this is what we can get this year. Hope everyone has a colourful Year of the Horse!

Eeyore's new outfit

We love black and white (eg. Kailan our dog), but we also love grey (eg. Eeyore).

I bought a grey tee sweater for Ah Lun on my weekend shopping trip, and this is how I presented the gift. This is how I found happiness even if I am alone. 

Giggling when I set this up. Poor eeyore! But that's so Eeyore!!

做節

阿嫲係最後一個到。

她問:你地好早到呀?
阿倫:我地尋日到左啦!
我:你遲左一日啦。

阿倫:阿嫲,你凍唔凍。
阿嫲:唔凍!
阿倫:我其實問你痛唔痛呀!

阿倫好錫阿嫲,但玩法就永遠另類一點。
