Christmas @ Jusco

My boy had a performance at Jusco this afternoon where he called it "Flash Mob Christmas". I was curious of how it was like. So we went together at 2pm. We reached Jusco at about 2.30pm and we had ample time to idle away.

Soon the performance started at 3.15pm. It was scheduled at 3pm. The opening started with the instruments playing from all corners. They then walked up to the stage still playing the christmas tune. It was sort of awesomeness.

Then all the singers gathered at the stage to sing the christmas songs.

It was just a matter of 15 minutes presentation. So we went for a movie:
'Walking with the dinosaur'. It was a very entertaining movie.

I also did a bit of shopping for myself before we headed home.

I liked the idea of colorful glutinous rice balls with gula melaka. So without hesitation I went about it and did these:

Believe me, my girl refused to eat them as they were too colorful. My boy just tried one and the boss tried one too. The rest were all mine! Yummy!

      AEON is at Station 18. The Jaya Jusco is near Ipoh Garden.
      Yes, it's a good experience for him but only my girl and I went to support him.

    hahaha, your girl refused to eat your "tang yuan" because she found it too colorful?? i guess your family are not used to the bright color "tang yuan" at all?? your boss and your boy each tried one, so you have all the others?? must be able to last till supper time huh?? :p

    Good morning Wenn,

    Well done to your son for daring to perform to the shoppers in that shopping center.

    Your tang yuan must taste good for you to finish all of them. Any fillings in them?

    Your boy looks very charming with his saxophone.. I belif it could melt any girl's heart..

    Tang-yuen with gula melaka syrup is something different.. Coz we always make tang-yuen with ginger-pandan leaves water / soya bean milk / red bean soup. So gula melaka syrup is something different and I too, can finish the whole bowl in 1 go..

    The coloring is food colouring or natural colouring? I know some people add pandan juice & pumpkin paste for the green and yellow colouring.. But the red one? What to add?

    I would love to eat those colourful glutinous balls! They just used safe vegetable dyes to make the colours. These days the dyes are cheap and safe to eat but I have never tried with gula melaka. I am sure I would love it too.

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..
