0 Of chopsticks and food

Yummier with chopsticks! I've a love for eating with chopsticks. Not just any chopsticks though. I particularly like the ones made from wood. Now, while I enjoy using chopsticks, I have never learned to hold it correctly. Boo. There are times no matter how I twist and turn, the food just slips through. In the privacy of home, desperate measures calls for using the fork instead. In public, I try my best to avoid food that look too challenging to handle.Other than that, I'm happy with using chopsticks for just about anything - Cinnabon rolls, doughnuts, Famous Amos cookies and even fruits, like the Durian.The benefits? My hands are clean...but...

0 Feasting on Durians

Tis the season.. for Durians and  I've had my fair share of feasting, in a small way. I say small because I can't get past more than three pieces per session without starting to feel uncomfortable. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. My friends have fallen victim to Mr. Sore Throat. I can hear croaks of disapproval whilst I continue my little Durian expedition.

The world would be a better place if all of us, the apartment dwellers, played our part in greening it. I think of Mother Earth's sustainability out of a sudden...with sorry realisation that I haven't really done much. It would be a dream to see tall buildings laden with plants on every floor because everyone is growing something. Chirping...

0 Stop! Love is in the air ..

And then there are days when people just touch you with their creativity. I saw these heart-shaped traffic lights in Subang Jaya more than a month back. Love is in the intersection I'm not sure if it's still there but it made an impact on how I felt all over. I was smiling inside out. I guess I'm easily entertained. It was a good stop. I was reminded about love, to drive with care for the sake of loved ones, to be patient with my fellow drivers, to put up my hand in a friendly wave when I wanted to cut in - all that warm fuzzy feeling and happy thoughts in one traffic light.In the midst of all that mushy-ness, there were questions...
