A Whole Month!

Looks like I'll just have to pull out my Costco Wellingtons, whom Mr.M had thoughtfully purchased for me on one of his travels to the US.

Memoirs on the wall...

Returning to work next week after a good 5 months of time off from the office, I've finally stop procrastinating and worked on my wall...

Tadahhhh!

Something Old, Something New...

I've been on a look out for a new trinket box to be placed on my dresser for awhile now... It's just to hold all rings, hairpins and whatsoever knick knacks of mine.

Finally after a fairly long search... I think I've found it! My inspiration!

But now I need to make it...

This job calls for my personal 'Jack of All Trades' - Mr. M

*heart*

Have you seen this?

10 mins and you'll know all you'll have to know about China...

Cupcake Minis...

So today... I was ready and prepared with a list of Things to do...

Somehow along the way... before I even started... I got distracted and started baking cupcakes...

???

Now that I recall... My Bambolina (lil'girl) was the Culprit and distraction. who kept pestering me for cake!

Well ok... so I decided to bake cupcakes since it was my niece's birthday this weekend anyway... It was sort of on the List of Things to Do... but not much priority obviously... it could have been done tomorrow.

But of course I might as well bake for Mia Bambolina...

Check! Check!

2 things out of the list

...

tho' it took too long and I didn't get the rest of the other task done on that list

Anyway... here I present...

Cupcake Minis... Red Delicious Apples!

Remember 'The Borrowers'...

Little People... Living under the floorboards, wall space...

borrowing stuff from Humans...

Ring a Bell??

Anyway... here's The Borrowers-inspired film, Arrietty by Studio Ghibli that I wanna watch :)

I heart Winter only because...

"Mr Fox stole my heart"

... he surely did...

"Bo Peep Scarf"

awww... Sweetness.

A Belly Busy Woman...

Lots to do now that I'm off work...

Even tho' it's been a week and a half since I finished up at the office...

I've been taking my time...

One that I've been working on is trying to get Nikita to sleep early...

which she has the past 2 days but at 11pm...

Shocking! I know...

Besides that...

Christmas shopping... Checked!

Some admin claim work... Checked!

Gift Wrapping for X'mas... Checked!

'Come Meet Our Baby' Invitations... Checked!

Quite a fair bit done for a pregnant woman... now to pack my hospital bag

Just have to put my feet up and try to relax before D Day!

Smack the Villain!

Played with this App on the iPhone...Hehehe

PERFECT! for the days when you get frustrated with someone and have the urge to vent your anger out...

*not to be taken seriously of course

But it definitely takes your frustration away and adds a little chuckle underneath it all...

All you have to do is take a picture of the person whom you're irritated with or choose an image of the person in your library... then let the Smacking begin...

You've got the choice of a thong or high heels for a more lethal effect :)

The app even includes a Cantonese audio of 'chanting curses' with subtitle translation in Chinese or English that makes it even more hilarious.
