Sorry for not updating my blog, this is due to I have a hectic schedule of the past 2 weeks, busy with school started and arranged my little son Desmond entered to primary school. I also helped my sister (who lost her beloved husband last year) on her new house matters (she is going to move near to my area and she is temporary staying with me now) and her kids transferred school matters. Another matter i busy was to furnish my new house, shopping for curtain, sofa, dining table, and etc. I planning to move to my new house in 1-2 weeks time, so I will not have internet connection during this period but I promise I will update my blog soon the connection is up. I hope I'm able to bake some Chinese New Year cookies in my new house and share with your.
Luckily my sister is staying with me during period, since I'm busying with my new house things, she is helping me to cook lunch and dinner. This is the potato and meat congee that prepared by her. A very simple and delicious congee, just add minced meat, potato and carrot into rice and add a lot of water and cook become congee.
---A little update about my little son Desmond on his 1st day goes to primary Chinese school.
* carry with his favourite cartoon character " Spiderman" school bag
too tired for the 1st day huh...
I guided him and he managed to buy a plate of noodle by himself.
To all my blogger friend, sorry for not able to visit your blog during this period, I promise I will visit you once I have moved to my new house. Happy Blogging !!
