I got three hours to kill before returning to work. Hop I went for the bus after picking up my medications from cousinbear’s lair which j. lo bought and mixed for me. Destination: mall. I soaked up the warmth of the mall the moment I got through the door. A welcome relief from the harsh [...]
Click, click here… and a click, click there. Here a click. There a click. Everywhere a click, click, click! {Did you hear the Old McDonald song in your head just now?} That’s my camera “singing“… my company on a long walk in a minus one degree sunny weather. I took pictures of the coniferous [...]
I’ve been too distracted, there’s a conversation playing in my mind. I forgot to take the borrowed-expensive-brand-new umbrella laying on the bus floor. Good thing, cousinbear’s wifey took pity on poor me and didn’t chew my sweet bum off (just a li’l bit in the ear:)

An issue which I had been trying to push way behind my mind reared its ugly head full blast, finally. It is heart-breaking all right but [...]
I am promoting Chinese cuisine in the Western world. Here I am in the Northern American soil, cooking for the Filipinos — Chinese dishes, the Canadians — Chinese dishes, the Koreans and Japanese — Chinese dishes. Everything Chinese. It’s very much appreciated though, especially the sweet whole chicken in dark soya sauce. I learned that [...]
The front brake snapped five weeks ago but I did not find the time to bring it to the bike shop. Blame Vancouver’s frequent rains, I got a lift from bosslady on my days with my cousinbears, I rarely use it. Now I don’t want to miss a bike ride on a blissfully sunny day. [...]
