Still in one piece

Before X'mas, there were rumours that it would be end of the world on 21122012.  I don't have anything against this belief because it could be the end for everyone any day... that's the way life is... So, instead of worrying something which is beyond my control, I might as well cherish every moment and enjoy life ... like eating pinkish snow balls (glutinous rice balls)! Y(^.^)Y

My Winter Solstice meal made by mum ~ YUMMY

It was Winter Solstice festival （冬至） on 21122012. Mum made snow balls in chicken ginger soup for us to eat.  When small, we always helped to make snow balls.. I know snow balls should be round, after all, they are called snow BALLS .... But  being creative is what kids do best so instead, we made square ones, heart-shaped ones, animal-shaped, snowmen, gingerbread men, alphabet-shaped etc.. it was so hilarious to look at a pot of all-kind-of-shapes snow "balls". At the dining table, we would try to identify the masterpiece's creator! haha.. Our masterpiece  sometimes turned out to be a disaster too... like when we were trying to make 'hot dogs' and instead it looked like big fat worms floating in the soup... well, i guess before there is success, we all have to go through some sort of failures to perfect ourselves.... 

So, end of the world did not happen.... Some people complained and asked why it did not happen as promised. Hmmm... what's all that about? The world has become strange. Isn't it good that it didn't happen? I don't know about you but I certainly feel grateful that the world is still in one piece. I feel fortunate that I can still smell the fresh air, stare at the moving clouds, feel the sunshine, be with my loved ones.... the list is endless! What's more, i get to open my X'mas present! yayeeee.... 

I've been a good girl this year, again (what's new? :P) Guess what I received this X'mas? 

I received a nice lunchbox set from Santa Claus... Oppps, guess my love for food must be very strong... So strong that even the far far away Father Xmas knows it! *blush*  I love the bright colours ... even the lunch bag is cute... and it looks so good on me, as if it was made just for me! :P From now on, every bite of food from my lunchbox is gonna be a bite of happiness!! 

My gift from Santa!

Life is good.... Life is the way you want it to be....
