Deepavali Challenge

For Deepavali festive mood, I have come out with a challenge. So far there are three posts for the challenge at Chang Jiang.

Here's my message:

- Get a non-Indian friend to wear saree/dhoti together with you.
- Take a picture together.
- Post the picture on Chang Jiang's page.
- Get your facebook friends to like Chang Jiang
   and comment on your picture.
- The picture with the most comments wins.
- A friend can only comment once.
- Consolation prizes too.

Closing date: 25 Oct 2013 at 11pm.

When my customers asked me about the challenge. I told them to go for it. If they couldn't get anyone, they can always ask me. Actually I'm keen to wear saree too..
 
This morning, a customer (A) called me and told me to partner another customer (B) in wearing saree. I was pleased to hear that and agreed instantly. Not long later, customer B really came to my shop and we have yet to decide the convenient date for both of us. 

At the meantime, I'm always busy as my cashier is still on medical leave. Hopefully we can fix a date probably a Sunday. She is going to dress her saree for me and I can't wait to see how will I look!

What about you? You can take part too. It's definitely fun!

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..
