【Lovely Company 。兩小無猜】

October 12, 2011 The sky is blue-ing...

Just couldn't tell which part went wrong o.0
Why does the male one look like a rat instead of Kitty Cat??

The eyes? Let's replace them with oval shape eyes (see the last picture) 
Time flies, it's middle of the week again...
This is so far the most "'not-so-simple" (because it's "not-so--complicated‘ either ;p) *happy meal* ^-^


As the Kitty was drafted (weeks ago), the original plan was to convert it into a 3-D hard boiled egg Kitty with sweet pink dress. However, it seems the motion and sense didn't go parallel >,<
Well, make it as back up plan when mummy runs out of idea ^.^v

By the way, mummy didn't know that Hello Kitty already got married!!!
(a cute friend of mummy informed her about the news via FB few minutes ago)
Kitty husband is Dear Daniel, who resembles Kitty's features except the hair (he has some hair on top).
What a coincidence, Daniel and the male cat mummy made look alike ;)

*happy lunch* includes:
Dried cranberries (starter) + fish balls + water cress soup
馬麻豆腐飯 (mama tofu rice--tofu & carrot & amaranth & minced chicken in vegetarian oyster sauce)
童言童語:
看見媽咪為她的午餐照相,小妞也一起湊熱鬧,拿起相機鏡頭的蓋在那裡“喀嚓,喀嚓”的叫。還很“專業”地跟她的“模特兒”(那對吉蒂貓)說:

“Meow meow, let me take some photos for you!.... why you didn't smile?? You must smile, okay? Otherwise not nice you know?!!”

大家一起笑一個吧!! ^u*

【ELF 。凡間精靈】

July 11, 2011 Reasonable hot; Intolerable hazy

是天使,亦是魔鬼!
孩子總叫父母又哭又笑 >,<
Fairy doesn't really mean much/special to Iroko at her age.
Rather, she is thrilled to see and play with gorgor jiejie didi meimei (other kids).
That doesn't mean she wants sibling--she told mummy she wants playmates didi or meimei BUT not from mummy's tummy!

*happy lunch* includes:
Pear + mashed potatoe, pumpkin & carrot + steamed fishballs + watercress soup
童言童語:
之前有提到小妞“對付”+安撫媽咪的絕招是她的那『五字真言』---媽咪,笑哈哈 ;D
這兩天她又給自己的招數注入甚是有點威脅媽咪乖乖就範的元素!!一察覺媽咪對她的言行舉止有異樣/媽咪開始不耐煩時,小妞就馬上把自己的臉,往媽咪的臉上貼,再叫媽咪:“Mummy must be good girl, 笑哈哈huh!” @.@

如果形勢危急,她乾脆就用嘴堵著媽咪的唇,再加上楚楚可憐的眼神和聲音哀求媽咪:“媽咪,笑哈哈,不要罵罵。”

這麼一來,誰還忍得下心拒絕她的要求?

【'兎'-GETHER 。同枕共眠】

2011年7月5日 又見艷陽天

自從女兒加入媽咪的世界後
媽咪就一直跟她“相依為命”
從來都不曾試過和她分開(連續)超過10個小時
我們就是這樣
一直同枕共眠了2年又9個半月的日子

休息了好久,要重新開始動手弄女兒的*快樂餐*真的有點不知所措 ;p
笨手笨腳地總算把這對兎母女弄出來了。。。

她笑 媽咪就了上大半天
她哭 媽咪還是得強顏歡笑地逗她開心

就是孩子身上的那股力量
讓媽媽知道 無怨無悔地付出是生命裡最幸福的事
讓媽媽學會了什麼叫 “知足”!

*happy lunch* includes:
Apple & dried cranberries (starter) + water cress soup + sausage +
fried egg with sweet corn + stewed brocolli & cauliflower with tofu, fresh mushroom & prawn
童言童語:
前天午睡前小妞看到老爸睡過的床有被整理過就說,“Daddy grown up already, can made the bed like the Hi-5 姐姐! ”
媽咪:“Yes. So daddy is good boy. Good boys and good girls always make their own bed every morning.”
小妞頓了一頓,眼珠一轉說道:“Koko not yet grown up. Daddy good boy, gotta make the bed for Koko!"

【Pirate of the Antarctica 。南極小海盜】

May 16, 2011 Windy cloudy day (^.^)v

Frankly, Iroko is not so impressed with PIRATE although she has frequently been exposed to the character via Hi-5. The *happy meal* is plainly mummy's choice ;p

*happy lunch* includes:
Stir fry baby bok choy + fried egg with salted veggie (菜脯蛋)+ watercress soup
To her, nothing about PIRATE! ;s She just couldn't relate this to pirate or even penguin >,<
(or mummy failed the homework?)
However, she was attracted by those "accessories", such as the eye mask, the sword, and the flag!

童言童語:
對媽咪和女兒的爸來說,要學習如何拒絕或反對別人的建議真的是一門大學問!小妞就有她自己的一套。

媽咪,“Do you want XXX?”
小妞,“... Or you (herself) want YYY?”

當她學會了造句(運用超過2個字)來溝通後,她就不再用搖頭或“DON'T WANT” 來表達自己的想法了。這樣快,狠(或柔?),準的溝通方式也挺乾淨利落的嘛!至少媽咪省下很多冤枉功夫,做些她不想要的東西,又要在那兒玩拉鋸戰 ;)

【Iroko calls this--ANGRY SEAWEED OWL】

April 27, 2011 A quilt-cover-dried-in-2-hours day!!

Iroko found an Angry Owl this morning in YouTube. That movie clip saves a lot mummy's time and brain-power, hehe...

*happy lunch* includes:
stir--fried French bean with rice sprinkle + fried egg with mushroom & anchovies + watercress soup
Mummy made a Chinese sushi set lunch for Iroko by wrapping the rice and fried egg with seaweed. Oh ya, the "sushi", which served with some thousand island tastes sooooo GOOD!!! (^o^)v

童言童語:
之前有提到小妞最近超喜歡往高處爬,再往地上跳。今天,她又在媽咪的床上蹦蹦跳跳,結果要跳下床時,失去重心,跌了一小絞,敲到了手肘。眼淚快飆出來的小妞馬上看了媽咪一眼,但發現在一邊忙著家務的媽咪沒有察覺她跌到,就即刻往房外走,在外頭跟自己對話,“哎喲,koko可憐咯!”

其實媽咪把事情的經過都看在眼裡,只是假裝看不見,要不然那小妞一定撒嬌,當場大哭一場!

不消10秒,小妞又進到睡房,看見媽咪笑著問她“怎麼了”,她有點怕出糗,佷尷尬地笑笑不語,媽咪忍不住問,“koko fell from the bed, did you?” 小妞馬上回答,“Mummy PANDAI oo!!”

【LADIES' Day 。滿屋瓢蟲】

April 24, 2011 艷陽大雨天

Since Iroko has her ladybug wall lamp fixed in her room, she becomes so  attracted to the tiny insect!
Since she first saw a real ladybug at home, she is so much fond of this little creature!
Since she had the half-dead ladybug lying on her palm, she makes it her favourite!
Let's have our Ladies' (Bug) Day today before daddy comes home tomorrow!

Square is not too bad for ladybug huh!!
Iroko loves to call ladybug “LI-BUG”, mummy is wondering... WHY?? She should be able to pronounce LADY...

【Companionship】
Mummy wishes to be your companion whenever you need...
*happy lunch* includes:
vegetable rice + stir-fried chicken mince with mushroom & Japanese Press Tofu +
watercress soup
Mummy just found out that the combination of tofu and mushroom is so YUM!!

童言童語:
前天小妞玩得起勁連廁所也不上,竟憋尿憋到最後一刻,等到憋不住,奔向她的potty時,褲子還沒來得及脫下,就尿了出來 >,< 當然就馬上,“媽咪。。。”

媽咪當然也忍不住一邊幫她善後,一邊在那兒嘮叨幾句。回頭要為她穿褲子時,那小妞竟然雙手抱在胸前,低聲低語地說了句,“討厭”!!

討厭!!媽咪幹的好事!!要檢討了!!

【It's not too late ('u')v 。末班列車】

March 28, 2011 Dim sunny day

Mummy was wondering what to prepare for Iroko's *happy lunch* last night until she logged in FB and saw a friend's photo album, she got the idea v(*u*)v

Yes, is you--Thomas!! This is another cartoon charcter that mummy is not familiar with, thus she needed some preparation (or she could skip drafting step ;p)


This is the draft of Iroko's *happy lunch*
However, it's a "blue dilemma" again ;s (mummy tries not to use artificial colourings). Ended up, mummy gave up Thomas but chose his friend!


Lunch of the day: Stir fried turnips + boiled broccoli + watercress soup
童言童語:"mmm, yum... I LIKE IT!", "mmm... 香香(smells good), I LIKE IT!", "Good, I LIKE IT!"... Mummy forgot since when the little one learns her new pet phrase--mummy LIKE IT!!
Doo dooo..... here you are Thomas' friend ;D

Do you notice what's wrong? hehe....
Yes mummy didn't put the nose! Because--LAZY!!
Why is the *happy lunch* given the title "It's not too late"?
Ans.: Because Iroko got her "BIG business" done by 14:00--the last minute of her "output routine" (12noon - 2pm). phew... mummy was somewhat worried because she would rather hold it until the next day if she missed the "working hours". Luckily she made it!

【A Counterfeit Spongebob? 。給我取個名字】

March 15, 2011 Busy cloudy day

Mummy has had the {ma-masak} kitchen off for few days, she fells a little guilty... Good or bad, the homework must be done.
Here you are, the counterfeit spongebob!!


Mummy has modified the features of the original Spongebob. The only things remain unchanged are the 2 big front teeth and the yellow body ;p

The work is rather a rough one ;s
But... better than none... hehhe......

Note: oh ya, we have watercress corn soup, stir fried HongKong mustard with oyster mushroom & Italian mushroom.
