Chinese School Graduation Ceremony

Last Sunday,Mishu attended my friend's 6 years old son Chinese School Graduation ceremony and in the same time I want to register her intake for next semester but unfortunately the principle refused to take her due to her age.She told Mishu to come back next year for registration,the best age they take is about 5.Another teacher told Mishu to attend the first day school opening as obverser when Mishu keep chanting she want to learn Chinese.The reason she gave me for not accepting Mishu is ,she still a baby and her hands is still in the process of forming!!..She said American Pediatrician discourage children under 4 to hold pencil or pen!!Isn't true?.But ..but I told her don't worried,Mishu is not really a fragile child,she can break anything or everything everyday!!.but the teacher still insist Mishu come back next year.I told her Mishu really want to read and write Chinese but ....
Actually this Chinese school is non profit church and all the teachers are volunteers.We just have to pay small fee for each semester and a year we have to pay twice.The fee is for AC and maintenance for the class room which is a peanut.My friend who introduced me to this church told me don't expect too much from the teachers.They don't supply book or reading material for the kids.But they will teach the kids to write and read in their own way. I think it's good for her to attend the school next year,at least she will be more mature and understand better.As for me I have to drive her 45 minutes without traffic to Queens every Sunday !!.So for now we both better enjoy our self first!.

The school prepare some snack and drink for the kids after ceremony
Mishu "wallop" chips while graduation ceremony is still in the process..she can't wait...too tempting

After the ceremony,we shop for some food and fruit in Flushing.Mishu love mango and mommy love guava...During summer fruit is relatively cheap here..$1.49 per pound for the guava ,$2.50 for 2 mango and $1.49 for a punnet Strawberry
Watch out!! Mishu grasping her mango!!.She finished the whole mango by herself .After she eat all her mango,her surrounding mouth have allergy reaction with red dot,or blood clog mark!!.

These student graduate from the school. Continue to Read More..

My First Garage Sale!!

Over the weekend,I finally had my first garage sale!!.I planned to have this garage sale for months and finally I done it!! During the last few days I was so busy running around before the sale.I have to draw sale poster and hook it up on lamp post at every section and junction a day before the sale .But unfortunately,someone took away all my posters .Beside the poster when I was putting up the sale poster it's pouring hard.I was wet like a dog ,running home with hammer and nails in my pocket..Poor me!!*sobbing*.I pray hard it's won't rain on garage sale.The weather forecast said we have 80% chance of rain in our area.Elliot is not very keen to get ride of the stuffs in the garage.He love to collect junk and craps.Furthermore he thought what he collected is an antique!!.Well,at last he only let me sell some of his toys which have missing parts and body.

I woke up at 7.30 am to clean the driveway before bringing out all the items from garage and store room.The sale start at 9.00 am and people start coming in at 10 am which is good for me.I have to haul all Mishu's baby clothes and baby stuffs from boxes and bags to display on the ground.But the ground is still wet,so I have to lay cardboards and garbage bags before display all her stuffs. Luckily Elliot willingly come to help me.He stay with me the whole time during the sale until 4.00 pm.He even help me to clean up some part of the garage after the sale to rearrange the new shelves .It's nice for him to voluntary come to my aide especially the cleaning part!!.Of course when I started my bitching action!!! ahemmm....!!ahahaha!!..Trust me asking him to help me cleaning is like pulling his teeth from him.The purpose of this garage sale is to removed all the craps and junk from the garage and rearrange the shelves I bought from Lowe's weeks ago.At least with the shelves in order I can find the stuffs I need and it's won't hurt my eyes every time when I walk in the garage.About 2 pm it's drizzling and I thought"OMG"!!.all my stuffs going to get wet but luckily it's stop after 10 minutes and sunshine greet me again!!
My mother in-law left quite alot of crystal and glasses here with us.I have no idea how the crystal look like, all wrapped in the newspaper until, a customer asked for bigger glasses..Well,some of the crystal was broken,maybe from moving the boxes around the garage when I was cleaning weeks ago.
Look at this broken cup!!.I have no idea where is the saucer.

Mishu happily playing around the driveway,in fact she drive us crazy moving the stuffs from left to right.We managed to sell Mishu's sleeping Dome ,some new toys,GI Joe's VHS tape,my sneaker,some stationary,some Indian Arts belonged to my MIL,a set of cup and saucer and some new home decoration..All in we managed to make $110.00 sale!!.Not bad at all!! I wish I can sell Mishu's clothes but unfortunately we didn't managed to sell even one piece!!.What a shame!



We clean up the garage after sale and I throw some of the stuffs in my van and drove to the nearest church.To my surprised,when I was at the church there are plenty of baby stuffs at the church front door.I guess some people refused to have garage sale and just send all their stuffs to church.To save the nuisance and energy..Yes,it's very tiring to have your own garage sale but we plan to have our garage sale again soon!!.I think we still have plenty of junk and crap in the house,Maybe this garage sale result will encourage Elliot to sell more of his stuff next time!..

Children fed 'silly pills,' forced to perform sex shows

I was horrified when I read this headline in CNN !!

In the windowless front rooms of a former day care center in a tiny Texas community, children as young as 5 were fed powerful painkillers they knew as "silly pills" and forced to perform sex shows for a crowd of adults.

What on earth wrong with this people (50-100) don't have self conscience when they watch these kids perform sex show in front of them??.Don't they have children of their own?.Shame of them!!

The one-story building where prosecutors say four children -- the three siblings, now ages 12, 10 and 7, and their 10-year-old aunt -- were trained to perform in front of an audience of 50 to 100 once a week has been vacant since the landlord ousted the alleged organizers in 2004. Read here

I mean I was almost on stage we were so close and and he still was able to perform the most elaborate and complicated illusion I had ever seen.

What I Bought In Chinatown,NYC!!

As I promised to show you what I bought in Chinatown the other day.Actually I almost forget to take the photos while I put all my grocery and food away.But anyway I'm going to show you randomly some items still in my kitchen table and floor.I was quite happy with all my purchase this trip.This trip I don't have to rush like crazy,take my own sweet time to shop while waiting for Elliot to finish his bussiness.The only down side is Mishu asleep in the stroller,and I can't really go into the store to shop,other than that I'm happy.

I bought this baseball cap for Elliot.He have one blue in color somewhere in the house but I like this color,it's $2.00,why not?.Furthermore he is a Dragon!!.And I have a tattoo dragon on my left ankle,love it!

Guess what is inside this box?.$9.99...good number,rite?

A colorful and new design claypot!!.It's been years,I'm thinking of getting a claypot for my kitchen .The sale person recommend the new design claypot ,said it's heat tolerant and don't crack easily.

A bigger size double boiler for Chinese herbs.My previous small double boiler was broken by Mishu 2 years ago.Anyway,my mom gave me some Chinese herbs and I brought it back with me from Kayel.I'm going to cook some Chinese herbs for Mishu and me in this double boiler.Elliot not interested in TCM,said it stink!!

I bought 2 pound of dry shrimp,going to make "kam heong" and shrimp floss(serunding sambal) soon.After we finished our lunch,I promise myself to get some sushi ingredients in Asian market.I'm going to make some sushi later..Hop to my kitchen and see what cooking!!
I can't resist not to buy Malaysia snack and Chan Heong Assam Laksa paste!!.I took all 9 packets Assam Laksa paste on the shelf!!.Oh! I forget to get this Assam Laksa paste from Kayel when l was there during CNY! At last I found Alkaline water(Kan Sui) in Asian market.Well,in Malaysia it's called Alkaline water but here they called it Sodium Bicarbonate.No wonder I keep searching high and low for Alkaline water but can't find it until I ask the sale person .The Chinese writing said "雪 淦 水",that right!!..I'm going to make Malaysia cake(kuih muih) soon.Watch out!!

Bought some perishable and green like lemongrass,lotus root,baby green mustard and Chinese vegetable.I also bought some noodles,tofu and seafood like shrimp,fish fillet,flounder and etc..I think all this purchase will last me a month or so but I still need to buy meat from our local supermarket .Elliot is not a vegan and hate green.

At last my new Dell desk top arrived!!.I customized a Dell Inspiron 530 and get it on Father Day sale.I still didn't hook up this desktop yet ,waiting for Elliot to assemble my new computer table,and waiting for my new router to arrive.I will review this system once it's up and running!!Hope it won't disappoint me!!

Dirt Devil Cordless Vacuum

I don't have a maid come in every week to clean my home.Usually in USA we as the middle income people can't afford to hire maid to do our dirty job.I envy people in Malaysia who can easily hire cheap labour maid to maintain their home cleanness.Well,the best I can do to maintains my home clean is to clean as I go and get a reliable and good vacuum.I know it's hard to have prefect sparkling spot when I have a small child at home.Every one would love to have a vacuum that is not only good but also dependable. I discover many electrical vacuums in the market that will help me clean the carpet or floor but usually they don't have good suction or better performance. I find that there are certain times when l wished my vacuum didn't have cords so that I can use them in different parts of my car and house.Purchasing a good cordless vacuum will be useful and helpful for any kind of circumstances especially I have a child who drop tiny bite food at the corner or under the sofa. I'm not be surprised if I discover good cordless vacuums at a less cost. It is not necessary to incur a huge amount of money to obtain the clean I prefer.Recently I 'm looking for coreless vacuum.I hate vacuum with core and it's really in my way when I'm vacuum the floor. I hear so much good thing about Dirt Devil products.Dirt Devil has a better way to save energy. These vacuums would be of great assistance to me when I need to clean difficult to reach surfaces like the steps. At that time I would be grateful that I don't have to drag a heavy tool and vacuum when cleaning these regions. Moreover, I will find the idea of having a cordless vacuum good as I can move around with ease and also clean the surfaces easily. The new AccuCharge Stick Vac and Hand Vac use 70% less energy.That making AccuCharge the first cordless cleaning technology to earn Energy Star approval.These day I only buy my equipment with Energy Star approval label.Why?.

Father Day's Dinner and Dessert!!

As usual,every Mother Day's or Father Days we rarely go out to eat at the restaurant.On these special day ,all the restaurant in US was fully packed .I have no idea why Father or Mother Day's must fall on Sunday every year.Anyone?.This year we don't give each other gift as for the last 2 months we both been buying stuffs we love(hobby) for our self.I keep buying baking tools,cooking & baking books and kitchen utensil like crazy and Elliot keep buying his motorcycle accessories like there is no tomorrow.So we are even!!.But Father Day's is still a special day for us to celebrate,right?...So on this special day I cooked some special meal and dessert for him..Here is goes....

I baked Seafood Mostaccioli Rigati Rustica as dinner on this special day
How it's look?.It's taste good with creamy sauce and plenty of shrimp,fish,crab stick and chicken.

Beside pasta dinner, I also baked a Carrot Cake as dessert for Elliot.When I visited Rita blog yesterday I saw she baked a lovely Home made carrot cake for David which inspire me to do the same.Actually I never bake any carrot cake before and the worst thing is I didn't know Elliot love Carrot Cake.So far I know he love cheese cake,pumpkin pie and cup cake.When I woke up in the morning the first thing I asked him..."Daddy ..do you like carrot cake?". He replied"Of course,I love carrot cake"!!.Ooosssphh!! I didn't know you like carrot cake!!.I guess carrot cake is "Kwailo"(American) cake which I will never buy when I visit bakery store.
I quickly go to my book rack looking for dessert and baking book for carrot cake recipe.Woo...hooo!!!...at last I found 2 carrot cake recipes and of course I choose the simply and easy recipe to bake.I decorated my carrot cake with cream cheese icing using Wilton's cake decoration tools. How it's look?.
This carrot cake is really moist and soft.I never try carrot cake before and I find this recipe is really good and simple. Of course I alter some of the ingredients especially the sugar and carrot amount .

I think Elliot can't finish this whole cake by himself and I'm not a cake person.This recipe serve 10 person.Tomorrow,I'm going to give half of this cake away to my neighbour.Hope they like it.Well,I'm going to post both recipes in my kitchen blog later.Hop over to my kitchen blog if you're interested!!.Enjoy!!..

Absolute Calm Herb

What is stress? Most people understand what is meant by stress. I think it is harder to put it into words. One good definition of stress is when you feel that demands on you are greater than your ability to deal with them. Money (or lack of money), work and family problems are common sources of stress. Everyone feels stressed at times, no matter how hard we might try to avoid it. Stress is a normal part of life. But it can cause major problems to our health in long run.But we are all more familiar with negative stress, such as a divorce, the loss of a job, or the foreclosure of a home.Stress from work and the poor economy are wrecking diet and exercise routines across the country. Stress can affect your physical and emotional health. The most difficult stress is usually long-term, constant and unexpected. Rather than eating unhealthy foods or smoking more, there are much better ways to try to deal with stressful situations.AbsoluteCalm product is to calm the body and relax nerves in stressful times so that individuals feel refreshed and focused.Absolute Calm has been scientifically formulated to quiet the anxious mind using the latest advances in the fields of psychology, nutrition and neuroscience.Absolute Calm is a natural herbal supplement, not a drug.Absolute Calm helps you relax in as little as fifteen minutes and continues working for up to eight hours. Absolute Calm calms more quickly when taken on an empty stomach, but it remains effective when taken with food.I'm too embarrassed to said that I'm one of the person who stress about everything Maybe I'm a late sleeper and I know my sleeping habit is unhealthy.I heard after taking Magnolia Extract will alleviate stress effect immediately without making you sleepy which is good for me who have a small child to care at home.Furthermore I believe in an ancient Chinese herb that has been cultures for more than 5000 years ago.If you, or someone you care about, tend to suffer from stress, Magnolia Extract may be just the thing you need to "take the edge off" and improve your quality of life … without the risk of side effects.

Chinatown Here I Come!!

Yes,yesterday I visited Chinatown again.You must be thinking why you always heard I'm going to Chinatown but but don't mistaken.NYC have more than 3 large Chinatowns.Each borough have own Chinatown.One located at Sunset Park,Brooklyn,another one in Flushing ,Queens and the largest one is in Manhattan ,NYC.This time I went to NYC Chinatown which take me 55 miles drive one way or 1.5 hours without traffic.Right! that is really far for me to go down to NYC.That another reason why I tagged along with Elliot going to the city.If you heard I always said CITY,that is Manhattan.For New Yorker we referred Manhattan as CITY.Elliot want to do some business in Downtown and invited me to go with him because he can use HOV lane during peak hour.As for me I want to get some Asian grocery ,food and perishable.So we kill 2 birds with a big stone!!

As usual I have to be the MAP.We are using 278 EW or Brooklyn -Queens Expressway from LIE(Long Island Expressway).I prefer to use Willamburg Bridge to the city but for Elliot ,he only know how to use 59th Street Bridge(Queensboro Bridge) which is located at the north of the city and Chinatown is located at Downtown.I don't understand why he like to use unnecessary route to reach his destination,wasting time,gas and have to wait in the crazy traffic bumper to bumper. HSBC building is a landmark on Williamburg Bridge going to the city from Queens
The signboard said it all!!

We park our car under Brooklyn Bridge,near East River.Yes,it's quite a long distant walk to Chinatown but what to do!!..

Mishu is in her Mc Benzs.oh!! she need her Mc Benzs when she shop in Chinatown if not I can't carry her at all when she refuse to walk. 50 pound gal!!

It's still too early,all the shop didn't open yet!.I think it's about 8.00 am. Pell St looking toward Confusion Plaza.But I know one Malaysia restaurant open at 6.00am ,so I quickly push Mishu with me to get some Malaysian coffee and kuih muih.

While waiting for seating ,I order Nasi Lemak for myself and Mee Goreng for Mishu.Beside that I also order takeout ,Nasi Kunyit with Sambal,3 please!!.Suddendly a friend call me at the side walk so loud!!.Yelling out my name!!Ooooohhh!! I almost jump up and have heart attack.Later they joined Mishu and me for breakfast.I guess whenever I go to Malaysia restaurant I can meet people I haven't see for years. I guess Malaysian circle is quite small.

After breakfast,we shop for food and grocery ..Look these man clean up street in Chinatown

Do you see what I see??

I'm thinking of getting 2 of this to catch moles and chipmunk at my lawn and yard.But how to catch moles that always stay under the soil and run so fast??. I think when Elliot see this thingy he will said"good luck"!!

Yes,it's moongosteen!!.Big and fresh but $9.00 a pound not a kilo!! If a Kilo is $9.00, I don't mind get it immediately !!..Aiyoooo ...one pound...after minus the shelf what else is left?.

Good looking Lychee but I recalled last year I bought 3 pound for $10.00..Maybe Lychee season just begin,that why the prices is a little higher.I should wait for a month or so for the vendor to bring down the price to 4 pound for $10!!hehehe!!

Then we walk to Litty Italy.I think Little Italy have Italy festival during summer every year. Look at the building ,the architecture and design ..look so cool..

Luckily the heatwave has gone!But Mishu still feel the heat ..She is tired and sleepy

A delivery truck reverse and knock this fire hydrant down in front of me!!.Then just left without turning his head!!.This is New York,New York!!Seeing is believing!

Italy restaurant on second floor

Looking toward Midtown building

Did you see ME snapping away my camera like tourist in front of this Chinese BBQ restaurant??Elliot laugh at me,said I look like China man tourist with camera.

Famous hair salon "Top Cut" for Asian/chinese people

Look at the parking price in Chinatown!!..If you refused to walk or get summon or get your car tow away ,you better park your car here. Trust me it's save you alot of trouble if your car tow away in the city!!.You have to pay penalty,summon,taxes and rental for your car to park in the tow junk.

East Broadway Looking toward Confusion Plaza

NYC court house at Centre Street

We meet Elliot for lunch.He want to have quick lunch ,ask me to recommend a good restaurant.I choose this Fusion restaurant,thinking they serve sushi which he love.

The showcase display look good ...eh??

I'm looking at the lunch set,look good also...

Let's go inside and enjoy our lunch

Nice decoration with Sumo painting on the wall Cool deco plates and bowls on the wall

More sake drum deco

Mishu choose to seat with her daddy.She know how to make him happy

Daddy Little's Gal

Mishu telling her daddy secret,must whispering

Mishu waiting for her sushi

Here the sushi come..Dragon Roll $9 ,Shrimp Tempura Roll$8.5 and Salmon Alaska Roll $7 but

Both of us was so dissapointed with the sushi quality..They used old shrimp tempura,from last night,the alaska roll only wrap with cucumer inside and the dragon roll don't look like dragon roll with so much rice instead of eel.With the price we paying for the roll it's really expensive compare with take out restaurant quality and service...they are really sucks!..sorry to said that but I can make better sushi compare with this crap they serving us.

Mishu enjoying her sushi...she request for chopstick

She is using kiddo chopstick which I have to make for her,this restaurant don't even have training chopstick.

I order yellowtail sashimi but the fish is not fresh..

We waited for our order more than 30 minutes ,no wonder everybody come to eat Ramen only not sushi ..We don't even care to complaint,just refused to eat in this restaurant in future.
I promise we won't come here again for sushi ..Sorry for the rambling

I'm going to make my own sushi soon..I think my own make sushi which is much much better than what this restaurant serve!!
I order a mixed Ice slush..Mishu refused to eat it....not sweet really and tasteless

After lunch,Mishu have her nap in her stroller ..Daddy go back to his bussiness..

I continue with my shopping while Mishu is asleep ..After shopping ,buying this and that I can't push Mishu stroller anymore...The stroller is full with hanging plastic bag left and right Call daddy to rescue ...after 4 pm we heading home..

Used Willy Bridge again to Queens ...Rush hour

View looking at the Queens Bay

When we reach home it's exectly 6 pm.We all are dead tired but I still have to put away all my food .I remember I have my Fondant class the next day but I still didn't bake and prepare my classes tools.Come back to see what I bought in Chinatown!
