RE: Happy Swiss Day

Enjoy your Swiss trip, LJ

It’s in my bucket list but I’m afraid it’d be wayyyyy out of my budget range.

RE: Happy Swiss Day

Thanks, Lukeon!



PS: You’re very wise

RE: Happy Swiss Day

Hi Lukeon

About 19 years ago, my ex-husband who was a chef with Fullerton Hotel, Singapore, was sent to St.Moritz for their gourmet festival.

He bought me 2 gifts from Geneva.

A ceramic fondue pot that looked something like this.


Fondues are not our thing and the pot ended up as a showpiece in our kitchen cabinet. On more than one occasion, I had been very tempted to give it to his mom so that she could cook her curry in it

I was collecting Wedgwood mugs back then and he got me this.



Only problem was……I already got the same one!

I was really not that hard to please….or was I?

RE: Why do young people want old?

Yes, I married a much older man for money.


Only problem is……he hasn’t got any!

RE: So long County fairs.

I love reading your blog, Orzzz

I’ve not been to a county fair yet here in the US, hopefully that will change soon.

RE: Hey, life its Good:)

Lukeon, I need to message them more often. I miss them on the blogs, I really do…


Hi LJ


Jajahjung, I miss my Thai girlfriend, Pi Nud in Macau. Her prawn toast is the best! Thailand has too many yummy food! And beautiful people.

That’s her on the extreme right.

RE: Hey, life its Good:)

Hiya Lukeon

Life is indeed good. I’m not one to mull over unhappiness, I will find a solution to the cause of my unhappiness and a lot of times, I’m able to rectify them. However, if I can’t fix it, then I’ll say to myself, “Oh well, at least I tried!”

Hope you have a good start of the week!

RE: HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR, Y'ALL!!

Hi Miclee

My daughter was born in the year of Tiger ( 1998 )

But she’s not as ferocious as a Tiger




Had Art to put these up for Chinese New Year. I did miss my old country and friends during that time and it didn’t help that they were eating all the Chinese New Year goodies while Skype-ing with me!

Chinese New Year is never the same anymore…not after my maternal grandpa passed away….I miss him greatly

RE: Highlights of your place and travels (bad or good)

Hi LJ

Good to see you back on the blogs!

Here’s another Cantonese swear word for ya!
‘Sei bhat po’

RE: Pink

I think, even though I’ve not seen a pic, you look cool with the lower half your hair painted pink!

I miss having a red streak on my hair ( the front part ). My daughter used to tease me by saying I looked like a rooster!

Long weekend getaway

After the museum, we had lunch at Chicago Street Cafe! A hole in the wall. Didn’t have any choice coz all the other restaurants in this small town were closed ( Labor Day weekend ). It’s a cafe that operates as a pawn shop or is it the other way round? Spoke to the owner who’s from the Lakota tribe and I asked her so many questions coz I was really intrigued by her.

Before taking our orders, the waitress ( only one there ) warned us that we might have to wait for at least 45mins for our food coz there were only one cook. I immediately asked her to get me an apron so that I could help the cook out! Luckily for my friends and family, the waitress didn’t take me seriously

Day 4. Enjoying the final morning at our rental place.

Badlands National Park

Bye-bye Badlands

Wall Drug Store

Art is such a cad!!!

And you all know that MiMi has a thing for older men

We truly enjoyed ourselves. There were 9 of us traveling together and with careful and proper planning, we managed to make it work and all went home happy!

I made simple dinner for all of us a couple of times and baked 3 cheesecakes to be brought along!

Thank you for reading and hope you all have had a great weekend too!

RE: Something To Lighten the Mood

All the time! I don’t like to see anything, especially food, goes to waste and I’ll eat it.

You’re one cool grandma Grandparents’ love are so special..

This brings back a memory…many many years ago, I bought a mug for my grandma ‘Of all the grandmas in the world, I got the coolest one!’

I miss my maternal grandparents very very much…

RE: Singles

Emmy

I didn’t make it for the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup in France like I intended to due to the uncertainty of my US visa application at that time.

I’ve only been to Amsterdam and Spain. Art and I would love to visit more of Europe in the future and hopefully can have a meet-up with you if we are around the vicinity!

RE: Singles

Emmy

If I’m anywhere nearby, I would’ve loved to attend!

Without my Arty, of course!

RE: Do I care if they live or die?

Zman

Welcome back to the blogs again!

As for those anti-vaxxers, this is how I feel…you don’t want to get vaccinated, fine. It’s your prerogative and I respect your decision/stance but please, don’t tell me I’m stupid or ignorant for taking them shots.

Ok, maybe I’m ignorant and stupid but you do you and leave me alone!

The one that didn’t get away….

Art and I celebrated our second wedding anniversary last weekend. He took me to my favorite restaurant and I had to warn him not to order rice like the last time we were there

Bang-bang shrimp and fried calamari

It was a good thing that Art was struggling with them chopsticks …. MiMi got more share of them appetizers!

Here’s something I saw on my Facebook that I thought is funny!

Put your wife in a room & lock it.
Put your dog in another room & lock it !!!
Open both rooms after 2 - 3 hours & see who is Happy to see you, and who will BITE you !
( You are advised not to try this at home as these stunts were performed by professionals; who are now divorced; and living happily with their dog!!)

Don't laugh loud ----
The extended version says...
Put your husband in a room & lock it.
Put your dog in another room & lock it !!!
Open both rooms after 2 - 3 hours & you will be happy to see your dog waiting for you.. but you'll be angry looking at your husband sleeping like he never slept before!!!

"If you want to be
Happy with your husband,
Love him Less &
Understand him more !

If you want to be
Happy with your wife,
Love her More &
NEVER try to Understand her !"

Very interesting & meaningful message to share
No one teaches a Volcano how to Erupt....No one teaches a Tsunami how to Rise...No one teaches a Hurricane how to Sway...No one teaches a MAN how to choose a WIFE or a WOMAN how to choose a HUSBAND.

Natural Disasters Just Happen...






P.S: Art’s message “Yeah, we made it to another year without seeing the divorce lawyer!”

RE: Hey Fay - Loved Your Blog On MiMi's Blog (UPDATED 8/13/'21)

Amalfia, I just realized something. The red t-shirt my son was wearing in the pic is of the Toronto Raptors! He’s a fan of them for many years now and at one time his favorite player was DeMar DeRozan no.10. Art was aware of it and he bought my son that very t-shirt when he came to visit me in Malaysia the very first time in 2017.



That’s the Chinese character of Toronto on the t-shirt. It’s pronounced as ‘Tor-Lon-Tor’ in Cantonese



Ok, one more thing and then I bother you no more The next time you see your friends, ask them if they know a fellow Malaysian by the name Christine Leong. I can bet my last dollar they ( at least one of them ) probably do

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

RE: Hey Fay - Loved Your Blog On MiMi's Blog (UPDATED 8/13/'21)

Mic, your wife was smart!

RE: Hey Fay - Loved Your Blog On MiMi's Blog (UPDATED 8/13/'21)

Oh wow! Do they talk about Malaysia to you when you meet? Are they Chinese? Indian or Malay? I’m just being nosy, that’s all

I would love to cook for you too if we were to live nearby! I know my cooking is nothing to shout about but ……

RE: Hey Fay - Loved Your Blog On MiMi's Blog (UPDATED 8/13/'21)

Amalfia

Thank you!

Do you go to the Malaysian restaurant often? What are your favourite dishes? Do you have any Malaysian friends? Sorry if I sound like an IRS investigator

RE: Hey Fay - Loved Your Blog On MiMi's Blog (UPDATED 8/13/'21)

Thanks, Mic. He’s proud to be in his uniform and I’m very proud of him. Hope he can contribute ( in any form ) to this country in the future, this country that has given so much to him and his momma.

RE: Hey Fay - Loved Your Blog On MiMi's Blog (UPDATED 8/13/'21)

Thank you for your kind words, Fay
