Happy Birthday!

I bought this cute 'cow' from Switzerland and it cost 8.5 Euros. Not cheap, right? Anyway, I like it as it's smiling. But today I have to give it away to my worker as it's her birthday.

a female moo-moo

I also made some soya bean agar- agar for her 
as her sister has already bought her a birthday cake.

She was born in the year of the cow of the Chinese calender and everyone calls her 'ngau-ngau' which means cow. But I couldn't bring myself to call her with that nickname. I call her by her real name.

She's my part-time cashier who comes to work at 4pm after school. It's of great help to me as I am able to take a break in the evening so that I can prepare dinner for my boy and girl.

Really thankful that she's at our shop till it closes late at night. I always wonder how she does her school homework. She told me that she will do her homework when she gets home after work.

Such hardworking worker and I don't mind giving her a birthday gift. 

Happy Birthday, M!
Sweet sixteen!

    She must be happy to receive a birthday gift. :)

    But are you sad to be parting with the cow? You didn't sound too happy there.

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..
