Memorable Sunday

My mum had to go back Taiping as she is going to observe the celebration of the Nine Emperor Gods soon. She wanted to go back by bus but seeing that she had so many things to carry, I offered to send her home. And then I remembered Angeline whom I told that I would let her know should I go Taiping again.

So I quickly messaged her if she would be at home. Luckily she would be free to meet me. When I reached Taiping, I took my mum and girl for lunch as we were real hungry. After lunch, I messaged Angeline if she's at home. But she's already out of her house, so we decided to meet at the Store.

She phoned me and in a short while, she called me from behind.

As since it's just a short meet-up, we quickly exchanged gifts. We hugged and said goodbye. Promised to meet up again one fine day..

Angeline's home-boiled bean curd barley
(with gingko and white fungus too)
delicious..
We finished it at my aunt's place.

two packets of freshly baked kaya puff

Opened a packet up and my girl was tempted to eat straight away. 

Next I took my mum to visit her relative, friends and sister.
my mum and her cousin SIL
and she's my favorite aunt!
I used to visit her once in a while.

My mum's best pals since I was born!
And I haven't seen them since I left school!
Today I met them!
So happy!

my mum's only sister

She loves to buy numbers. Coincidentally she was buying numbers and asked if I wanted to buy any number. So I bought my car number. I paid only RM3 and I struck RM55! My aunt struck RM42! Indeed we were both lucky today!

A lovely Sunday!

    Really good that you decided to send your mother back to Taiping because this enabled you to visit so many people. Not to mention the win. Not a lot but still very nice to win something back - also very lucky indeed.

    Good night, Wenn. Sleep well.

    Angeline brought you so much food! Looks like other bloggers know what to do when they go to Taiping!!!!

    Did you ask her if she has retired from blogs? The Taiping gang has boycotted us all. Say no time, no free, office no freedom but all still can go shopping!!! Sigh!

    You paid RM3 and won RM55. If you paid RM30 and you would win RM550. If you staked RM300 you could have won RM5500!!! Lagi greedy, you could win RM55,000 if you bet RM3,000! Muahahahaha

    I am crazy!

Twin bananas

Image
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..
