I Kid you NOT!

When i told you all that my FIL grew Baby BoK ChoI for me .. in his greenhouse.. because i wanted so much to eat chinese vegies.. i kid you not..! this is the second batch of Baby BoK Choi i have had .. this month… from my FIL. My MIL brought this in .. yesterday together with some aparagus.

You tell me.. how can i not love my FIL & MIL .. !! even my own parents donch treat me so good. Seriously.. my parents didn’t treat me so well.. as to grow vegies for me.

I was telling my FIL a few weeks ago.. that we asians love shallot.. and that they were expensive to get here. So my FIL explained to me.. that the shallots seeds were ex.. therefore.. shallots are expensive.. but he would grow a few just for me.. as at TREAT.. 😉 Now you tell me.. how can i not love my FIL..!!

EeeeewwwwwWk!!

Yes.. really Eeeeeewwwwkkk..!! it’s raining again..!! not the heavy kinda rain.. but really gloomy out here… and i here i was thinking with going to specially bring Grammie out here for babysitting.. because the brat misses her grammie so much.. they can go to the swing or play outside.. and then of course.. the weather .. have to be really sucky like that..!!

Either it’s too cold.. or it’s raining.. and wet.. thus making it hard to have a active kid.. and making it hard to drain those energy she has everyday.

Sunday Flea Market

PB at the flea market on Sunday for the first time at the Mariner Center. Unfortunately, the flea market didn’t take off the way we wanted to .. but it was alright i guess.. it was a fun way to get outta the store.. and the tables and tents were provided at a very reasonable price.

How do they do it..??

A customer was in yesterday.. looking at a small computer part that he needed. It was at 4 bucks each. And he asked PB .. if he was gonna have more of it.. since there was only a few left. And that he would only have money for it .. on the 20th of this month (baby cheque day). PB assured him that there should be more coming in.

After the customer left, PB asked me.. how does this ppl do it..?? not having even 4bucks.. on them.. to get something that they want..?? and having to wait for baby cheque day .. before they can buy something for 4 bucks..!!

Seriously, i donch know how one can live.. waiting for a baby cheque to buy a 4bucks thing. But even I have 4 bucks just in coins.. lying at the bottom of my handbag… not for emergencies.. but change that must have just dropped and accumulated .. during the months.

So yes.. we do meet all sorts of very .. very unique ppl around here.

Swiss Chalet

I had almost forgotten about this quarter chicken that we had at Swiss Chalet last week before coming home. I think it’s too forgetable..?? therefore i had forgotten..?? Well.. the chicken.. and the potatoes.. were mediocre.. and the roll suxs. We had asked them to bring out the rolls first.. but the rolls came with our food.. 🙁 either she wasn’t paying attention.. or it just comes with the food. Whatever it may be.. i think service is really bad.. because i remembered PB telling the waitress that we were really hungry.. and even though she did bring the butter out to our table first (to tease us..??), she didnt try to save the situation at all.

Heart of Greed

Well.. i’m finally done watching it.. and at super speed too.. so you know how interesting it was for me. The tv series .. went from high peak for me. .till messy peak.. and then finally .. a relieve kinda feeling. Did it have a happy ending..?? Well.. i think it did.. but it was a really high price to pay. And i seriously wonder .. if something like that could really happen . . for not so much money. Well. .in my opinion. .it ain’t that much money… but maybe to some it’s alot..?? But it’s definitely worth watching.. “Ah Kum” put on a very good performance.. definitely respect her..!

Curry Laksa from Malaysia

This is from a Curry Laksa package that i bought when i was up in Halifax a week ago. The package of paste wasn’t big at all .. but it sure gave me a full pot of curry laksa.. and it was very spicy..! the way i liked it. Inexpensive and it does the job.. ! sure i love Prima Taste Premix Laksa.. but this is way more cheaper.. but i only bought 2 packages to try.. coz’ i didn’t know if i would like it or not.
