Organic Parade

I used to hear people saying that as one grows old, one becomes senile. So, how far true can that be? Let me tell you this, it can be quite true. You see, someone apparently used a plastic steaming rack with the wok and caused it to melt. And this someone is more than 60 years old. And this someone has been cooking forever. How can that someone not know that plastic will melt inside the wok? If not for senility, i dont have another word for it. And just in case you dont know, the plastic steamer rack is the kind that came with the rice cooker. And it’s to be used with the rice cooker and nothing but the rice cooker, period.

I saw ants under my bed the other day. It was at the far end corner and i need to crawl all the way in to get rid of it. The trail was so long and made my skin crawl. I had no choice but to spray a little insect spray onto the trail. It’s only a tiny pump, ok. This is to break up the trail and i dare say it worked.

Somehow, the skin on my right hand doesnt agree with the insect spray and broke out into a rash. I quickly went washed it with my cleanser and rubbed some ointment onto it. Lucky for me, it subsided the next day. See how hazardous these substances can be. It’s only a minute amount and yet, did so much damage. Ok, if i ever see ants under my bed again. I’m going to crawl inside and get rid of it. Blekkkkk…

What color is your bedroom in? Mine’s in a light shade of pink. It’s rather dirty now and i suggested to hubby to give the room a new coat of paint or cover the walls with new wallpaper. What do you suggest? Paint or wallpaper. To me, wallpaper sounds better as i dont have to worry about getting pen or crayon marks on it. They can be wiped off easily. I know there are wall paint that’s resistant to pen marks or crayon marks these days. I just want a change, k. I think i may go with wallpaper after all. Love those patterned ones. Lovely!!!

Being one that works online, i hardly get the chance to hold a pen in my hand these days. In fact, my handwriting is horrible now that i cant even read what i’m writing. The other day, hubby brought back some promotional pens and told me to keep them on my work table. I told him he might well keep them for his own use. Half the time, they most likely end up in the trash bin. Or my kids may want to scribble everywhere with them. Or he can go give them to his dad if he like. Me, gimme a new backlit keyboard anytime, lol.

It’s been more than a month since i last played with my Nintendo Wii. My FIL deems the noise created by my kids too much for him to bear that he banned them from the living hall. This is just one of the reasons why i’m working so hard to move out of this place. The time will come. I just hope i dont have long to wait. Life sucks when you are living under someone else’s rules. And it’s “family” too, cheh.

Anyway, one of hubby’s favorite game is Tiger Wolf PGA Golf. You should watch him swing the WiiMote. You will think that he’s holding a gold club and not the WiiMote in his hands. He has a few used golf clubs lying around the house. He says he wants to sell them off and buy a few Callaway irons. I told him to just give them away. The thing is, no one plays golf here.

I was at my friend’s organic shop the other day. Went to collect my organic kamut pasta. My kids love the taste and texture very much. I’ll be making them some for breakfast tomorrow. Hubby’s not home for the weekend. Went to KL for some new business dealing. So, i’ll be home with the kids this weekend.

Not that i mind too. Olympics is on and in fact, i’m watching Olympics Opening Ceremony LIVE now. I just hope he remembers to buy me the digital photo frame i saw the last time i went with him. I have far too many photographs inside my harddisk. No point taking so many nice photos when i cant show them off, right. I gotta go. Wanna watch Olympics Opening Ceremony LIVE now.

Ever since i saw a girlfriend of mine using the Envirosax Mikado Flower Petals Shopping Bag, i’ve been dying to buy one for myself too. If you’ve not seen the Envirosax Mikado Flower Petals Shopping Bags before, let me explain to you briefly how beautiful they are. Envirosax Mikado Flower Petals Shopping Bags are printed with eye-catching colors and comes in lovely, Asian floral designs.

They are guaranteed to make heads turn heads each time you’re at the market. These eco-friendly reusable bags are lightweight and portable. Each one of these reusable Envirosax Mikado Shopping Bags holds the equivalent of two supermarket plastic bags. Rest assured that all reusable Envirosax Mikado Shopping Bags are made utilizing ecologically sustainable practices where possible.

I have a few reasons why i want to buy Envirosax Mikado Reusable Shopping Bags. You see, local shopping centers here recently implemented a new rule whereby shoppers have to pay for plastic bags if they did not bring their own Shopping Bags. Though reusable Shopping Bags are being sold there on the spot, i wouldnt want to be seen carrying one of those hideous-looking reusable shopping bags with their logo on it, lol.

As a young and fashion-conscious mother, who wouldnt want to be seen with one of these lovely and chic Envirosax Mikado Flower Petals Shopping Bags, right. Take a look at these stylish Envirosax Mikado Shopping Bags. Dont you agree with me that they will make heads turn. Moreover, i do get extra loyalty points if i were to use my own reusable shopping bags. Oh, go buy one for yourself.

The weather’s been good of late. There’s rain almost every evening. I like it when it rains. Reason being, i have all the reason to not go out and spend money. It’s getting costly just to leave the house. I may end up 100 bucks poorer with each outing. Anyway, there’s one thing that makes rainy season a nightmare here. And it’s mosquitoes. Each time after the rain stops, my house is filled with them blardy mozzies.

They can be found all over the house. My room is not entirely free from mosquitoes. I have a door with netting that prevents mosquitoes from flying into the room. It helps a lot but each time someone leaves or enter the room, one or two may get inside if they happen to be nearby. I have to wear my long pants at home these days. No choice. It’s either that or get bitten all over. That reminds me to go buy an organic mosquito repellent back for my kids.

My friends over at the Big Apple called to let me know how much they are enjoying their long weekend off. It’s the 4th of July yesterday and it’s a Friday too. Most of them are taking advantage of the long weekend to do some traveling. How i wish i can join them.

Jules told me he bought a GPS system for his car recently and plans to test it out this weekend. My N82 is equipped with GPS too. It’s pretty useless to me as i seldom drive, lol. One day…. wait till i buy my own car first. I’ll definitely test mine out by doing some traveling too.

My aunt called to let us know my uncle hurt his arm again. He has gone to see his doctor and for the fourth time, he told him not to move it. Actually, both my uncle and aunt are in the midst of moving their belongings over to their new place. They sold their old house and the new owners are moving in next week.

They should have called a New York Moving Company to help them move their furniture over but my uncle is stubborn. He thought he can do it all by himself. See what happened now. He wont be able to do much except sit down quietly. My cousins have been informed and they have gone over to help their parents out. Well, hope his arm recovers soon.
