Mum is in action again....


The aroma of freshly baked moon cakes filled the house this morning. Yup, mum's baking more moon cakes ^V^ she wants to give them as gifts to a few friends as appreciation. No gifts are better than gifts with hands and hearts :)

Gifts from mum's heart


I did request mum to make me an egg york only moon cake. But she said "CANNOT!" It's too high in cholesterol... :( It's alright... because mum wants me to be healthy ^^

Mum's golden mooncakes

It's Lantern Festival next Monday... Hope it won't be cloudy on that night coz I wanna hang colourful lanterns around my car porch (if I'm up to it that night :P), eat homemade moon cake, sip green tea, enjoy the evening breeze and watch the moon.....

Some people always say 外国的月亮比较圆. Is it true? I wanna say, YES, it's true! The moon in Aus is HUGE! Esp when it's full moon! I remember looking out from my dark room one sleepless night and saw a gigantic moon! It was amazing! It's like if u really look at it, you could see the species living on it.. or you could see ET & his friend cycling over the moon, or a cow jumping over the moon hahaha... too much movies and kiddy songs is not good huh? haha... The moon was indeed very big and bright. I remember reading under the moonlight on that sleepless night... I wasn't exaggerating. I really did that as I couldn't turn on the lamp because that would wake Jane up... ah, the good old days....

Wait..... walking down memory lane is a sign of aging! haha....
