Raja Petra Kamarudin - RTM Interview 27 April 08

I watched this interview here,here, and herethe other day. I was pleasantly surprised to see the extent to which RTM has become more open. I then found this video on Lillian’s blog. I posted it for those who might have missed the programme the other day. In my opinion this openness is a positive step in the right direction.

Thanks to Mark Chua Klang for the video.

A burglar, a panicked housewife and a speechless mother-in-law.

woken up by thief

Interesting character : Wen Wen, young mother of two.

Wen Wen : I was wondering what I had done wrong when both my dogs died. The vet said it was death by poisoning. I blamed myself.

A week later, I was asleep when I felt a certain sensation. A hand seemed to be rubbing my face and trying to wake me up or make me go to sleep. I couldn’t make it out. I just couldn’t wake up as I was too tired. I said a silent prayer and said if it was from God let it be a blessing and if it wasn’t from God let the unholy spirit be banished from my presence.

A very happy birthday to Jeff. Apparently you have forgotten your age. Hopefully you will remember it in another forty years or so. :)

Benghui came home and told me he had been disciplined by his headmistress for creating a disturbance in class. I asked him why he was beaten. He said he wasn’t noisy. He was just playing a game called scissors, stone and cloth. Malaysians are familiar with this game.

Steamboat porridge for the novice

steamboat porridge ingredients

This post is not for the serious chef. It is more for the uninitiated cook, the daddies ( like me ) who need to cook for a day, the college students living away from home, the singles living alone who need 2 meals for a Sunday and reluctant to leave the apartment or just new housewives who have been pampered by their own mummies hahaha.

New Proton Saga, Farley Supermarket, bonzai, lizard and money falling from the sky-weekend snapshot

bonzai 2

I was at Farley Supermarket this morning and I saw lots of bonzai plants for sale. Unfortunately I saw few buyers although there were many people who came just to gawk like me. Bonzai plants are for the serious green thumb people. They are not easy to maintain and are very expensive.

Green Thumb Sunday

I just discovered this group of bloggers who are into gardening and possess green thumbs. I hardly qualify being just an enthusiast but I am joining them just to see how it goes. You can read more about this group from Richard

water plantwhite flower

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it flowering this morning. I don’t know the name of this plant but it needs lots of water. Any body who knows the name of this plant please tell me the name :)

The citrus fruits are from my garden but they just happened to be there because my son went to get some fruits to eat and put it there.

Meme : Bloggers’ fans

I received this tag from red-hot-mama Lillian. I found it quite fun except that I didn’t realize we have so many fans and air-conditioners all over the place and in all sorts of nooks and corners. But the humble fans are very much in demand and a necessity in our hot climates.

I plant trees to shade the house from the sun. I use black tinted glass to keep out the heat and the glare but a tropical climate is still a tropical climate.

Ths week’s theme is signs and preferably funny. For this post I have no entry and while thinking about it during a company meeting, I was doodling and as expressions on people’s faces are signs of a person’s feelings, I submit the following three pieces :) I am no artist. :( But people’s expressions are unique and funny :)
