10:30 am. Darl still sleeping. Yeah he never wake up early. If I don’t wake him up he will sleep his way to heaven until at least noon. Guaranteed.
Me: Hey you know what? I think we should make pan-fry lamb chop for lunch today. We haven’t done that for really long!
Darl: Mhhmmm…… (sleeping language, meaning, OK.) But it’s going to take some time to prepare.
Me: If you wake up now we can go grab the lamb at the supermarket and make everything on time, you see.
Darl: Mhhmmm……
10:50 am. Still hopelessly rolling on the bed.
Me: Hey! Our anniversary is just around the corner!
Darl: OK, I’ll pan fry some lamb chops for you on the day.
!@#$%^&*(). This is the risk that you’re going to face when your relationship is no longer in the honeymoon-state.
I stumbled upon something that, out of curiosity, I’ve installed on my blog. Notice that floating window at the right bottom of the site? Live Chat. I’m not quite sure how this will help me and the blog but I’m just installing for fun and would want to monitor its performance for a while. So catch me and chat with me if you want. :)

Check out the Muffin Pagoda. Baked a dozen of this for the family for breakfast. Gave plenty to Bobby’s and colleague too. :)

I caught Xiao Bi tucking herself in between pots and turning her back towards us this afternoon. Sleeping. She never did that before and I really wonder why – you see, Bi, I’m sorry that I forgot to refill your bowl of water this morning but hey, I made it up by giving you a bowl of chicken soup!
As you may know, I’ve been trying to grow some vege seedlings for really a long while, but it’s just not happening. They normally just grew and grew and then suddenly, died.
When I talked to my dad about this my dad said I should just plant the seeds in the garden bed that I’ve prepared way long ago and just let it grow. I told him that I’ve been reading a lot on the internet saying that planting seedlings and then transplant to the bed is a better idea. He said I’m not going to get a single piece of vege if I keep doing this. We’ll see – I said.
Some time last week I was really frustrated, realising the fact that this time around, even nothing is willing to come out of the seedling pot. I decided to place 4 seeds of ladies’ fingers and cabbages each to the garden bed, and water and ignore them. And this morning, I’ve got at least 5 of this.
Not only they are growing, they are WAY BIGGER than the seedlings that I used to have. At least 4 times bigger. I’m really not sure if this whole thing is right but damn it, they grow! Even the soil with the never-germinate-seeds from the seedling pot that I randomly threw in the garden bed had something came out of it. Way smaller than these but they are also growing.
And I start to realise. Perhaps the internet is not always right. Perhaps my dad is. At least until now.
I picked up a handy little book at a book fair this morning – when I was in a rather low energy mode, and I read this:
“If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it’s yours. If it doesn’t come back, bark and bark and then bark and bark and just bark and bark and bark and bark and bark…”
I just couldn’t stop myself from laughing, and immediately decided to get this little book as my daily dose of humour. Who knows, perhaps this book was secretly written by our forever rebellious Golden Retriever, Xiao Bi! LOL!
P/S: The handy little book is Life Lessons from Your Dog by Anthony Rubino Jr.
