3 Times!

We are making a trip down to KL this weekend which means I get to see 'bee another time this month. That's 3 times in a month!

After a drought of two whole 'bee-less months I think God is really rewarding me for exercising self-control in not running down to see her every opportunity I get.

Thank you Lord!

Dhall Tarik

Last weekend I was enjoying tosai for breakfast when, as usual, I ran out of dhall curry. I requested from the waiter, "More dhall curry, please."

Waiter brought the curry and said, "You like dhall ar? Next time can order dhall tarik. A lot of dhall. Very nice." Then he laughed.

He was making fun of me! But ok la, as long as everyone had a good laugh.

So, anyone game for a dhall tarik?

Sequel to Short-term Memory Loss

As if the shock of experiencing short-term memory loss is not bad enough, last night it finally dawned on hubby that we did not take out the DVD because there wasn't an actual physical DVD! All we saw was the cover of DVD on the LCD TV screen.

We cannot remember things that are there and we remember things that are actually not there...habis la if we carry on like that.

This had better be the last episode of the Short-term Memory Loss saga.

Does this happen to you too?

Prequel to Short-term Memory Loss

We actually decided to watch "Conan the Barbarian" a few nights ago. Hubby took the DVD out but somehow we changed our mind and did not watch it that night.

On Wednesday night when we decided to catch up with "Conan the Barbarian" we realized that we had forgotten where we have put the DVD, which prompted the search for another movie to watch, which in turn precipitated the short-term memory loss episode.

Darling hubby had ransacked the whole DVD drawer and "Conan the Barbarian" is still missing.

Badminton At Six

The girls in the office are going for badminton today. Four of us, just nice to practice some strokes.

I doubt there is going to be much playing since most of us are novices or 'stengah masak' players. We'll be picking up the shuttlecocks most of the time but that's ok since our aim is to sweat and have some fun work-out together.

Unlike men, ladies don't go into court with the intention of demolishing our opponent. At least I hope not.

Short-term Memory Loss

Last night we could not decide on which movie to watch. After much deliberation we finally decided on "Dream Girls" so we went into the room to get the DVD.

At the DVD drawer hubby turned to me and asked, "What movie are we watching?" I also couldn't remember so we settled on "The Beach" instead.

On our way to lunch today hubby suddenly remembered that we actually wanted to watch "Dream Girls".

Help! Short-term memory loss is getting more frequent...and attacking both of us at the same.

Broom and Magic Beans

When I said I wanted to sweep her room, she asked me to use the broom and a dust-pan in the attached bathroom. I went in to look for the items but I could see neither broom nor dust-pan.

She did not reply when I sms-ed her for the exact location of the broom. Undaunted, I conducted another search and found this hanging on the wall....

So cute and in such a pretty shade of pink too, but totally useless

Can you imagine anyone sweeping with this teeny weeny thing? Like main masak-masak only and makes sweeping a very back-breaking task.

But the next day, like Jack's magic beans, they have grown to become....

A full grown broom and dust-pan! Note: Some colour change
is to be expected in the growing up process


Magic happens when Mommy comes to town.
