Mishu always request her mommy she want to visit the township library but her mommy reluctantly want to bring her to the library coz it's quite far away..So her mommy promised to bring her to a local bookstore instead for storytelling..but unfortunately when they arrived at the bookstore the Storytelling time has changed from 1 pm to 10 am...ouch!! that too early especially on Saturday!!
we was surprised when seeing the bookstore empty!! we was told they changed the time a month ago:(
so we hangs around for 30 minutes browsing the books
Mishu is looking forward to the story telling session via snack time in this book store.After spending 30 minutes in this Bargain book store ,we hopped over to Wal-mart then to Path-mart for food shopping
Mishu inspect the good! huh?
she told her mommy she want to buy this and that!!
thanks to the TV's ad in Cartoon Network,Disney Channel and Nickelodeon channel!!
told her "NO" coz we still have the same food at home but different brand only.One thing good about her,she don't throw tantrum if she can't get the stuffs she want.
she listen and obliged but still wanted to stay in the market..she loves food shopping coz she can touch all the food on the shelves..told her we have to go home coz it's dinner time..look at her unhappy:( face..she still want to go to another place....

Let's me bring you to see what type of flower has bloom in my garden!! These days I was quite busy,the weather is really hot and humid,not to said I still have to cook ,clean,water my plants ,doing laundry daily and taking care Mishu.Not really have the mood to cook elaborated dinner,just whipped something easy and simple now.Well,my swimming lesson class start this week,so I make sure I have my swimming suit ready daily.Furthermore I didn't use dryer after doing my laundry,just use the old fashion method..That called drying our clothes on the lines..Why not take advantage that GOD created for us:SUN! hahaha!! Actually I bought a folding lines from Ikea to dry my sweaters after reading an article from my monthly magazine.Last winter I realised all my sweaters are getting smaller and smaller after wash and drying .While waiting for winter to come I might as well use this folding lines to hang our laundry,right? save energy and $$$:GREEN!! I guess I might save few bucks this summer..so I can buy more plants and pans,right:P
Right now I don't even have time to remove all the weeds around the flowers and garden. Swimming class really beats the hell out of me!! not to said scares the hell out of me!! *heart pounding*
I planted this yellow MARI-GOLD (bunga tahi ayam in Malay) from seed.I wonder why the translation sound so different..
this marigold is in my vegetable garden now..I bought this marigold from Walmart
Look how beautiful it's this Mandevilla bloom right now!!
Look like hibiscus without the stem ,right? 
Dahlia in pale gold color
more pink dahlia blooming now
keep growing and growing until I have to use a bamboo stake to support the plant..
beige or white rose? Hmmm....look the new branch coming out bigger and taller!!
light pink rose
my rose garden bloom again!!
love this lily!! Stargazer lilies are deliciously fragrant
still in the process of blooming...but it's just take 2 days to bloom and take another a week to stay beautiful only.Then it's all gone with the wind...Known for its striking blooms and heavenly scent
Delicate, bold, and fragrant all at once
Of the many different lilies that are available today, the stargazer lily is one of the true stand-outs!
few days later....see the different?
I'm going to get more Stargazer lily for my front garden but I can only get it online....well...I might order it online...*wink*
spectacular blooms!! stay tune for more of my garden post!!

Mishu is a very cautious or you can "chicken" kid.We called her sea-chicken coz she so afraid of water especially when she in the pool.She have 3 bicycle and 2 four-cycle but refuse to try on it until now.Well,you must wonder how on earth she have so many bicycle,right? Her daddy found all her bicycles around the neighborhood.He brought them home and repaint again,now it's look as good as new!! people here just left their trash at the driveway on garbage collection day..anything from furniture to shoes and clothes.we left a treadmill machine on the end of our driveway and within hours someone pick up the machine..
we encourage her to ride her four-cycle but she always said "can not do it"!! this kid always tell us she can not do this and that! *sigh* she afraid of falling or getting hurt..Actually she hardy fall or trip when she was a toddler.
guess she need a hard surface to ride her 4-cycle,so I moved our cars at the driveway for her practise her 4-cycle
Look!! now she look like PRO!! she insist to wear her sunglasses,said the sun hurt her eyes..
next step after her graduation from 4-cycle,she going to step up to bicycle.. 
each time when she out at the driveway having fun one of us have to sit with her..she understand our rules,she can't come out to the front yard by herself alone.....even though our county have the lowest crime rate,we must always beware and cautious of her safety
she is quite satisfied with herself..said "I done it"
and she love compliment!! "great job,Mishu"!!
after riding her 4-cycle,she decided to use her creativity on the driveway
beside drawing,she decided to break her side walk chalk into 2 pieces*sigh*
warn her not to destroy her chalk,next time won't buy for her anymore...then she show me her angry face!!
while I sitting on the staircase watching Mishu riding and having fun at our driveway,I realised our magnolia tree has some flowers..
the flower must bloom from new branches...as I know magnolia flower bloom in early spring then come the leaves later
what a beautiful flower not to said it's smell so fragrant!!
I love magnolia...
it's look similar like the Balinese Champak flower ,Kenanga,right

Last week we accompany Eliot to see his specialist at Riverhead which is 45 minutes drive away from home.Eliot suggested I can shop at Tanger's outlet after his appointment..That right!! I love that idea! hehehe!! So I don't mind to be the driver!! Actually they move his appointment from nearby town to Riverhead because the doctor have emergency with his patient on the appointment day.So while waiting for daddy seeing his doctor,we visit Nursery nearby.This nursery is really huge and have large selection of plants but it's not cheap at all.
Mishu complaint hot and humid..she keep telling me she want to go back to the car..
this nursery look like Garden/Park .nicely arrange and trim
each plant have it's own price tag attached
you can find any plants here that you can't find in any regular nursery
evergreen plant 
another type of evergreen plant
more evergreen plant
various tree plants
clematis
tangerine color knock out rose
red color knock out rose
hydrangea
white hydrangea
wow!! look at that price!! I rather buy this kind of plant from Home Depot or Lowes..Guess Long Island own product is more expensive than other States,can't blame them for that coz nothing is cheap anymore in Long Island!! I realised plant sell in Home Depot or Lowes come from the South.
beautiful hydrangea
Mishu introduce you to this beautiful flower!!
we take a rest at the Gazebos
Mishu decided to be the photographer!! why missing upper body part?*wink*
this one look better right? no missing head and body of her mommy!! but missing foot! hahaha! OK....daddy call to pick him up from the clinic..time to go!!
the clinic is just 5 minutes drive from The Tanger's outlet..it's lunch time,so we have some Mr Mc Donald first before we shop at Tanger's Outlet
This Riverhead Tanger's is split into 2 section:Tanger 1 and Tanger 2.You can see the directory split with 2 different color
Of course ,I shop and buy and buy..As for daddy he just look after Mishu while I shop,me hopping from one store to another ...it's really fun shopping without Mishu tagging along
daddy is watching Mishu riding on a horse
Mishu love this kind of ride but it's not cheap at all!! each ride cost about $0.75-$1!
I was surprised mostly all store have great sale!! 75 % off or 50 % on top of the mark down item!!well.. recession make this business mark down their inventory
this is Children place store..Of course I bought some clothes for Mishu from Children Place and Kid Gap too..she is going to her Pre-school this coming Fall.
I was surprised Coach store have great sale!! mostly all their bag are on sale for 50% off!! Hoooray!!! when I see some people paid 2 or 3 bags at once at the cashier,it's doesn't like recession at all!!
I quickly call Eliot and show him what I want for my coming Christmas present:)
Eliot hate LV.He said LV's quality is not leather ,it's made from vinyl or so-call plastic...He wonder why people love vinyl not leather .I said brand mah!! He said at least Coach bag are made from leather.Well....no comment:)
Daddy want to visit this Speciality store but found out that their product is really Super expensive like Mishu said all the time Super fast,Super slow...super hot !lol!
OK...time to go,it's 4.30 pm..we didn't visit all the store coz we are pretty tired,hot and sleepy..we left home at 9.30 am .of course,I did buy some summer clothes for myself at America Eagle ,Gap and Ann Taylor
