Guess what we were doing .. while watching Gem of Life Episode 10 today…?? Yes..!! preparing treat bags for my kid’s school.  27 children.. !! for 2 classes.  One the French Immersion class that my kid is in.. and one for the English class, 27 Kids altogether.

This is our first year .. preparing treats for 27 children.. and we wanted to participate in all my kid’s school event.. so are treat bags we bought from Dollar Store .. and we had chocolates, lollipops.. rice crispies.. and more chocolates in the bags.

I packed the treats in .. while watching Gem of Life Episode 10, while the spouse tie the bags up with tiny invisible holders.  Nah..! i never do things alone.. i rope in the spouse.. and people who complains that their spouses donch help.. well..  you have to make them useful. .and feel useful too.  Make sure .. they know.. how great it is.. that they are participating in your kid’s life, be it big or small.

Tomorrow is Halloween.. but the spouse of course gotta have his cake first lah..!  and the kid ..?? she had asked for a small luggage for her treat and tricking session tomorrow.. *slap forehead*. Her explanation was.. last year.. she didn’t have enough space in her treat bag .. for her treats.. mauahhahahahaha!!

Watching Gem Of Life Episode 8 and eating some Halloween Cake is the dream thing the spouse would love to do.  Although, I don’t like cakes or sweets that much.. it’s fascinating to see all kinds of cakes for Halloween is made for this occasion.  Me .. i prefer a bowl of tong sui.. or even a bowl of bo-bo cha-cha… boy..!! i haven’t had bo-bo cha-cha for so long now. Well.. i’m gonna watch the Gem of Life Ep 8 now. .and if you want to watch it.. just hop over to my entertainment blog.  It’s up and ready to watch .. and no downloads.

Being a food blogger has many benefits, not only do you get to make friends all over the world but you also get to receive many food gifts from them.  Being in Canada and unable to find certain foods from home has made me so home sick you wouldn’t believe what I would do to get a bowl of Laksa or a plate of char kway teow.  Because of all these wonderful food bloggers from home and other places around the world I am able to get a taste of home every now and then.  I cannot thank these wonderful big hearted people enough for all the kindness they’ve shown to me.

This Christmas you can be sure that they will be receiving some holiday cards from me and my family.  I’m getting some printed out from Vista Print because they are personalized and I don’t have to order them by the 100s like most printing company would want me to.  I can place my orders online and choose from the variety of folded cards or photo cards and even postcard types to send.   I have the design options, the type of fonts I want to use and the colors, or I can upload my own pictures of the whole family to put on the cards.  In fact, the whole family can get involved in this Christmas project, it’s gonna be fun. Lowest prices and satisfaction guaranteed, can’t ask for more.

And here i thought i could watch Gem of Life Episode 7 with my favorite mushroom soup.  If anyone out there don’t know this yet.  My favourite soup is mushroom soup.  Wherever i go .. and whatever country i am in.. i would ask for mushroom soup.  I could tell whether my meal was gonna be good or not.. just by trying the mushroom soup from a restaurant or a cafe.  Nothing makes me happier .. than having a great bowl of mushroom soup.. and i don’t even care if it cost me $10 a bowl.  That is how crazy i am about my mushroom soup.

So when the gals.. at my favorite Tim Hortons .. told me they were having Mushroom soup for the whole week.. i was very, very excited..!! because good ole Tim’s usually have good mushroom soup.  I wouldn’t say they are great.. but good..  and good is good enough by me… afterall, we are in Yarmouth, yer know..!!

But as you can see.. i was disappointed.. !!!  i have no idea.. how can soup turn into curd..???  like this..?? too thick..?? too cold..?? or what is it..??   Of course .. i got to watch my Gem of Life Episode 7 but you can see i wasn’t a very happy camper..!!  Booohoohoo..!!!  i just want a good mushroom soup.. is it too hard..??  I’m really sad lor..!   Plus i didn’t wanna complain .. because the gals at Tim’s are always nice to me .. and my brat.  So pray tell .. what i should do.. ?? for a good bowl of mushroom soup.  Nope .. i don’t want canned ones.. thank you very much.

These watermelons were half the size of a normal watermelon.  I was certainly intrigue by the size of it.. and amused that they were for sale.  Well.. until i saw the price of the baby watermelons.  You guess how much..??

Yes..!!!  $4.49 !!!!  it insane.. eh..!! and product of USA ..!!  oh well..what can i say right..?  plus i didn’t even know if they were good.. so i didn’t buy it .. as much as i loved watermelon.  And $1.99 for pomegranate..wherelse i can pick them from my neighbour’s garden for FREE..!

Actually I am watching The Four Episode 23 right now and waiting for the uploading to share the links with everyone.  But of course, I will be writing about FoodBuzz 24 soon.. and the surprise i received yesterday from Foodbuzz.  Check back later.. and see what FoodBuzz sent.. but in the meantime, if you are like me.. and want to watch The Four Episode 23 and Episode 24, just hop over my entertainment blog.  I’m having breakfast while watching it.  And can you guess what i am having..??

Afterall, the head office was in Madrid, Spain.. muahhahaha!! i had great times.. working for my ex-boss.. Mr Fernandez.
