Just Sharing

DH rarely sent me emails, not to mention jokes, forwarded emails and attachments. However, I received a slide show from him today. His message was, "Shows some pics or very poor people from Africa. We are very fortunate". As usual, many typos and very brief. But as his wife, I understand him - 惜福

This photo is taken from the slide show to share with all of you. It has been a long while since I last feel TOUCHED. Seeing this photo brings lots of pain to my heart and water (tears) to my eyes...
[Some of you may have seen this photo before since it is an award-winning photo.]

This photo is the "Pulitzer Prize" winning photo taken in 1994 during the Sudan Famine. The picture depicts a famine-striken child crawling towards a United Nation food camp, located a kilometre away. The vulture in the photo was waiting for the child to die so that it could feed on him. This photo shocked the whole world when published.

No one knows what happened to the child, including the photographer who left the scene as soon as the photo was taken. Three months later, he (the photographer) committed suicide due to depression.

Over here I am surfing the Internet, looking for stuff to purchase and to stock up for Q for CNY... I cant help but whisper to Q who is sound asleep, "你真好命."

Current Exchange Rates

From http://www.xe.com/ucc/

Just to give all of a you a feel of the current strength of USD and JPY.
*Pls note that these rates are board rates, therefore they are lower than our credit card exchange rates (local bank impose service charge of ~1.5-3% on forex).

The decision to stop my purchase with JS and Strapya is right!

超天然的防蚊方法

今天下午去幫兒子買一雙鞋子.
老闆看了兒子的腳說, "怎這麼多紅豆冰呀?"
我只好無奈說蚊子真的好多哦...
市面上賣的防蚊液,每家都說很天然, 但裡頭還是參了一些化學成份 :(
雖然我有買了一瓶,但最後還是沒在用 .

老闆就提供我一個最天然、最安全、最古老的方法.
他說, 他們常常去爬山.
山上蚊子很多，但是只要用一滴麻油滴在手上, 兩隻手抹一下，拍打在寶寶手上和腳上.
最後手上沒油了，但還有麻油的味道就輕輕拍一下寶寶的臉上.
爬一個山下來，蚊子都躲的遠遠的哦!

我聽了這個方法後,很高興的回家試驗看看 :)
把麻油抹在兒子手腳和臉上，就帶去公園試試看 :D
哇...天阿! 居然發現有3隻蚊子一直想咬兒子, 但卻只敢在旁邊飛來飛去.
兒子身邊突然好像多了一層防護罩耶!
蚊子僵持了5分鐘還在飛，但就是不敢靠近.
最後居然跑來，想咬我這在旁邊試驗的媽咪 (因為我沒擦)
真的有效耶...好高興哦!!!
現在弄了一個小瓶子，隨身帶著.
只要一滴麻油哦！
抹在身體一點都不油，且有香香的麻油味.
原來最天然、最安全的防蚊方法是隨手可得的且不用花大錢去買哦!

Stay on the Line

With the inputs from none other than my mentor, spicegal, I have added a Cbox for you gals to communicate with me :)

I will try my best to stay "connected" (to my inbox and blog in particular) although I wont be working at my desk for the next couple of days as I am down for more courses and workshops (I just finished 1 this week but have yet to work on the assignment! ahhh...).

Do stay tuned as I will have more requests for sprees and BPs with the festive seasons round the corner!

BP - Giggling Elmo Plush

BP CLOSED!

Plush collected.
spicegal and dalandcrystal
Have contacted you via email on collection and post.

BP #1

It has been a very, very long time since I last run a BP "openly".
Have an offer for the above Elmo Plush at $9.00 and MOQ: 12.
My gfs are keen to take 2 pcs.
Anyone else keen to take up the remainder?

Information about this toy:
Height is > 20 cm (*sorry I am not able to give the exact measurement as Q is hugging it to sleep right now...)
Plush is soft and furry to the touch.
It gives out a short giggle (20s or so) when we press the "red spot" on the chest (pardon me for not being able to attach a video as I am still a "baby" to blogging *embarrassed*).
Toy comes only with the tag and is in clear plastic.
There is no box.

Stock is readily available, pending our prompt confirmation.
Supplier hinted that such plush sells FAST.

Interested, pls email with subject: I want Elmo! to pretty.mama@yahoo.com.sg asap.
I will need to 'choop' the no. by 4 pm TODAY.
(Sorry for the short notice.
I dozed off the past 2 nights before I could share the good deal... :()

p.s. I am doing year-end pack up again.
Will soon be uploading pix and details of my "Excess from Sprees and past BP" for grabs.
Do stay tuned!
