Butterfly

Spotted this pupa hanging from my Pandan plant one day. Got excited and quickly called out to my kids to view this cute pupa! Snapped a picture and wanted to monitor the daily changes to the life cycle of the butterfly. Unfortunately, on the very next day, the butterfly has emerged from the crysalis and what was left was an empty membrane. What a great disappointment!

First Lariat Necklace

Fell in love with the colourful ring bead the moment it caught my eye. Having purchased it weeks ago, inspiration suddenly struck me to use this bead for a Lariat necklace. Thus, my first lariat necklace was born. The other end of the necklace hung a ring of swarovski crystals in assorted colours, a flower bead, a white howlite bead (semi-precious stone) and metal tassels.

Loved the finished necklace and have put it on sale on my etsy shop. Click on the link on the right to view more pictures.

First Try - Ngoh Hiang

Had wanted to try this dish for a long time. Finally tried my hands on rolling Ngoh Hiang recently. FOr those who're not familiar, this is actually a beancurd wrap with a filling of minced meat, prawns, mushroom and water chestnut.

I've been certified successful in my first try by my ever critical children and hubby and ever supportive parents and brother. The only bad comment is that the beancurd sheet is too salty. Well, I would have to wipe the beancurd sheet more thoroughly to remove the salt (no tip on this was given on the recipe). Still..., I'm quite proud of myself.......
