Candle Lighting Contest

Yesterday I was thinking: What contest is suitable for Moon Cake Festival? I came out with quite a number of ideas but finally an idea hit me. Why don't I do something that is related to the festival. Yes, candles! 

I had a box of colorful candles and I decided to create a love shape using them. I waited till it's past 12 midnight which was the start of the eighth month of the Chinese calendar. 

Found a nice spot just in front of my living hall's clock.
Easily stuck all those candles even without any outline.
Luckily I could form the love shape nicely..
Then I lighted all the candles..

and started taking pictures with my camera and also my handphone.

Then I quickly posted on Chang Jiang page.

Candle Lighting Contest:

Create something using the candles.
Post it on Chang Jiang's page.
Get your friends to like Chang Jiang and your photo.
The most 'likes' is the winner.
Closing date: 17 Sept 13 at 11.30pm


 I haven't decided on the prize yet but I hope this time it will attract more people as it's very easy. So everyone is welcome to take part.

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..
