Burglaries, cctv, burglar alarms, thieves and robbers

A friend has just been robbed. Burglaries are so common nowadays few people would bother to listen or read about it anyway. The only reason I am blogging about it is he told me he was shocked how the burglars could ransack the room with him and his wife and three little kids without waking up any of them.

Marketing, inflation and feeling blessed

everwin

I learned a lesson tonight. I went to the Everwin Supermarket. I saw a lot of people waiting in small groups. I asked a lady there, ” What are you all doing?” She then told me they were waiting for the arrival of the vegetables. Soon a lorry arrived and very soon there was a large crowd busy buying vegetables.

WS2

dogs-in-love

At first my dog had a suitor. Like a love sick guy he would hang around and hope to see my bitch. We even thought that it was cute. When it didn’t go home to feed, we even fed it but no hanky panky we told the dog jokingly.

I first got wind of this singer from tehais. Things just moved on from there. Benghui drifted into the servants room ( the room I blog in as we don’t have a maid ). He said he enjoyed the song.

Tropical flowers, fruit trees and cactus-Photohunter’s

photohunters2mo1

This week’s theme ‘13′ is very difficult for me. In the end I had to settle for 13 pics from my garden. As I live in Malaysia, you can see everything is very lush and fertile. ( just an excuse for not keeping my garden in a neat and trim condition. If the truth be told, I have just cut my grass my grass and feeling very tired :) )

Anyway, please excuse my 5 minute photo-taking spree and thanks for coming over.

low fat noodles

This is a low fat noodle dish. It is simple. On a plate put a little salt, pepper, tomato sauce and optional sesame oil. Boil some noodles and drain. Transfer the noodles and toss it with the ingredients on a plate. Garnish with some chiilies. For the ingredients, blanch some bitter gourd pieces, kangkung or tauge( brussel sprouts ) or whatever takes your fancy. In this particular dish I have added some chicken pieces and some sar hor fun type of noodles to make it look better. ( For Benghui I have to add some thick black soya sauce. )

Uploaded by mylongkang

Benghui’s Chinese homework-character recognition. You can hear him reading fluently in the background.

I have been going crazy. Benghui has been bringing his home work home. He goes to a Chinese language tuition school which charges Rm300 every three months. He enjoys the tuition classes. There are about fifteen students in each class and they read in unison. The work is graded from Book 1 to maybe 20 I am not sure. I only wish he practices his piano just as diligently.
