Have you encountered this?

Was at a Book Fair recently. While browsing a magazine, the action of a young lady caught my attention. She was reading some handicraft magazines and was also busy taking pictures of some pages of the magazines. I felt disgusted at her actions. The magazines are not expensive - not more than $5 since it was sold at a good discount during such book fairs. If she really likes the designs in the magazine, she should just spend the few dollars to buy it!

Sale at 'All About Flea' on 23 May 09

My handcrafted jewelry items will be on sale on this coming Sat (23 May 09) at the flea market at Singapore Art Museum (71 Bras Basah Road) from 12pm - 7pm. I'm really feeling very excited! My items will be sold through my good friend who will be selling second hand clothings. Thanks, Ah Bear!

The event is titled 'All About Flea'. The organizers will invite a few Animal Welfare groups to sell their merchandise at the Flea to raise some funds for their activities as well as to create awareness of what they do for the animals and our society. The nett rental proceeds the Organizer receive will also be donated for Animal Welfare.

So, hop down to the flea market and look forward to your support.

Exams Over!

Hooray ,exams are over! Not mine but my kid's exams. Mummy suffered from exam fever during kid's exam-that happened to many mummies that I spoke with. Next will be the finger-biting moment when the results are released.

Now, I can devote more time towards my beading hobby. Trying to rush out new pieces for a coming flea market sale. Will release the details at a later date. Stay tuned!

Mother's Day

Last Sunday was Mother's Day. Had a Mother's Day lunch with my dear mum a week earlier. As for this mummy here, her dear children gave her gifts-a handmade knotted key chain bought at one of the carnival at school (my little princess actually remembered and bought it a few months back) and handmade origami items from my little prince. He actually went to the website to search for the designs and folded a tulip (with a leaf), koi and Pikachu. Quite well folded, I must say.

After a home cooked meal by Daddy, we had some desserts, quite pretty ones. As they are of different flavours, we took our pick based on how they looked like. Quite yummy desserts.

My children did honour their promise to behave and not make mummy hungry on this mummy's day!

Birthday!

I've just grown one year older and wiser (ha!). Just celebrated my birthday a few days back. Hubby gave a treat at a Japanese restaurant in one of the hotels. Quite a good variety of food (it was actually a la carte buffet). Had a bit of many different items and ended up with a very full stomach. The sashimi serving was big and we could hardly finish it. Was a pity that my son suddenly didn't feel too good (felt giddy after the long ride - traffic jam was bad) and lost his appetite. His usual favorite was the soft shell crab but he couldn't even finish his spider (soft shell crab handroll). Seeing him sick, his sister also din feel like eating.

Unlike in the past, my kids forked out their pocket money to get little presents for me this year and of course plus their creative cute little cards which I treasured dearly and kept them in good condition.

To me, the best way to celebrate my birthday is to spend time with my closest family members and have a good meal together. That's the best present for me!
