Sacred Saturday

Yesterday (Saturday) marked the first day of the ninth month of the Chinese calendar. I also understand from my customer that they also observe the holiness of this month.

Anyway, the day also marked the last working day of my part-time worker. He is a student in a college and he came to work after his classes. He usually does his assignments after work at night. Few days ago he told me that he's leaving as he's going to face a major exam. He needs time to study.

Since it's such a short notice, we have no farewell party for him. I just bought a cake for him and he wanted to share with the others.

Pandan-layered cake

I cut the cake for him and distributed to everyone. 
I told him to come back during his break..(hopefully)

Recently I received an invitation card from my customer. I was supposed to attend it but the boss had to attend a house warming. So I didn't make it. He must be waiting for my presence. So sorry..


So I wrapped up this little gift and should he comes to my shop, I will give it to him for his little princess.
a small gift


And I also wrapped up a gift for the 1000th person who has liked Chang Jiang.
I have yet to meet this person. 
Congratulations!

    Hello Wenn,

    You are really good at wrapping gifts. Such a pretty gift for your customer's daughter. Congrats to Chang Jiang for getting more than 1000 likes! All due to your effort.

    Your part time worker is such a diligent person. Ya, hopefully he will work for you again during his study break.

    Good night. Sleep well.

    This part time staff who decided to share his farewell cake is kind and selfless. If you have given this cake to "that" teacher, she would have rampas it home alone to eat. LOL

    I always respect students who would work part time to earn extra pocket money. They would become good and successful survivors always in future.

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..
