Beaded treasures



Have recently crafted 2 more beaded items which I'm gaining interest in. Both are made of glass beads (swarovksi crystals would be too costly). Have made the wine glass into a necklace which is now on sale in my Etsy shop (just click the link on the right to view).

Will be making more... Stay tuned!

Problem with Blogger

I've recently not been able to post pictures on my blog. Have crafted a post to share the various food pictures taken during my trip in South Korea but the toolbar containing the image icon, font, etc has completely disappeared. Felt so handicapped not able to load pictures. Have just posted the problem at blogger help. Still waiting for a viable solution......

Yummy Food






Just to share some pics of nice food from my Korea trip:

Pic 5: The ginseng chicken soup (each of us had one whole chicken stuffed with glutinous rice). It was sweet (natural sweetness from the chicken, not MSG) and frangrant.
Pic 4: Fried rice cake and fried rice with cabbage and chicken. Have not tried this before. It's tasty and special.
Pic 3: Seafood steamboat in Jeju Island. There're crabs, prawns, abalone, mussels, clams,etc, really yummy.
Pic 2: Went tomato picking. Have not tasted such juicy and sweet tomatoes! Sooo fresh.
Pic 1: BBQ pork. The marinade was so much better than those tasted in Korean restaurants in Singapore. Wrap the meat in raw lettuce and sesame leaves, with raw garlic if you like. It's heavenly.

Remembrance

Exactly a week ago, I attended a memorial service of my good friend's sister with a heavy heart. Her sister was only 33. I froze in disbelieve when I heard the news! It was indeed a piece of very sad news. I knew this good friend of mine since we were in kindergarden and I knew her sister too. I remember her as a cheerful and bubbly girl.

Life is so unpredictable. I learn to live each day to the fullest and will treasure all loved ones with all my love.
