Dik and Daisy are so generous to buy us a box of chocolates, produced by Morozoff, a company which has been established since 1931. Thanks, Dik and Daisy.
The nine chocolates are placed inside of a round paper box, tied up with ribbons and beautiful roses. I love the shapes of chocolates – flowers, a heart, a layered cake, one with a paste which looks like wasabi,….. The sweetest is, of course, the one which bears “For Someone Special”. Am I so special?
My elder brother and sister-in-law are equally generous in giving me
some interesting cow biscuits. They are packed nicely inside a translucent box with a sticker of a cow outside. When I say “cow biscuits”, I do not mean that they are for cows to eat.
The sticker mentions two things:
[1] Cows sable – something to do with colour or name of cows, maybe.
[2] Farm Designs – a farm display of cows.
I have opened the box of biscuits and arranged those lively cows and the green
grass (made of paper) to a dairy-farm display. Each cow biscuit is wrapped in a transparent packet. It is really difficult for me to put these “cows” upright with their “two” legs, not “four”. Anyway, I make the display right on one of my bay-window platforms at home. Do you like the display of this farm?
My dear brother and sister-in-law also bought me from Japan a packet of candies which I have not yet opened. Let it be a “secret” for some days until Chinese New Year Day 1. Thanks, KS and LH.
Happy Chinese New Year to KS, LH, Dik, Daisy, Lit and Viv!
蘇絲黃真好，今次帶給我一絲絲的回憶。回想三十至四十年前，母親在冬天偶然會煲臘味飯給全家吃。當時我都非常喜歡這般充滿肥油，但香噴噴的飯。現在胆量小了，惟有望梅止渴，看看這個特輯便算了。心想以前曾經吃過這般美味飯已經很幸福了！
在錄影室，蘇絲黃首先洗米，用瓦煲及秘密武器simmers 去分散火力。最攪笑的地方是蘇絲黃用這塊像乒乓球拍的simmers作了幾個抽擊動作。
I was pleased to be at New Century Plaza yesterday, not only to attend a tea lunch hosted by my sister-in-law YP and her husband MS, but also to marvel at the cartoon figures and decorations of “崖上的波兒”.

Daisy 和 Dik在較早前傳來消息，說日本卡通鉅製「崖上之波兒」很快在香港放映。果然，該片已經在今月十七日在港出現。
I have seen towels which look like our 1000 dollar-notes. They look good to the eyes, but I never buy one. I believe the towels cannot last long since the faces of the dollar note come from printing which means after being washed several times, its colour will fade and the design will no longer be recognizable.
t Victoria Park, paper wind-mills are on sale. They are posters made from thin paper with a similar design of a thousand dollar note. The back side shows the calendar of the year 2009. Each card, when folded, turns into a paper wind-mill.
avy and itself a poor propeller. Some people like the idea because they believe the wind-mills can bring them fortune. I myself don’t believe this. Without opportunity, one never gets rich!
The Inauguration of the 44th U. S. President, Barack Obama, was held at the United States Capitol, Washington on January 20th, 2009.
Chinese New Year Fair 2009 opens today at Victoria Park.
