Christmas Hampers

Well, I started wrapping hampers as a novice. I started in June 2008 when I did the very first one. I took ages in just wrapping a single hamper. I even needed help from someone in accomplishing the wrapping.

As time goes by, I become better and better. Now I just do it all on my own.

Here's my hampers!


Guess..
How much were they?


That's my very spot where I always do my hampers.


Here, I did the smallest one.
It's only RM30!
Very saleable too!

    This year not so many hampers in the shops and malls of Miri!! But theChinese goodies sale is already one!! And Chinese New Year music is already in the air.

    Retail consumerism is rather unpredictable in Miri and I also think that our people are uncertain about what the future may hold. However wise saving is the bottom line.

    Not easy to wrap them coz of the uneven shapes and sizes. How long did you finished wrapping a normal one? 10-20 mins?

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
