Smoked salmon salad with Homemade Garlic bread
Jamie Oliver 15 minutes n 30 minutes meal is very popular here. Actually, it gives us a lot of good ideas.
No matter how much you love to cook, need to do it 5 days a week lunch and dinner plus working full time, it really feel headache.
Watching his show few times, i learnt this one -homemade garlic bread - simple and easy.
I just need to cut few lines horizontailly n vertically on the top of bread, chop some garlic put in inside and few drops of oliver oil, salt. Then put in oven 180 to 200 degree until golden brown.
Smoked salmon salad - salad veg from garden + smoked salmon from supermarket + olive oil
Perfect summer meal

Crochet baby girl dress - starting from neckline
This is what i learnt this year, seamless crochet start from neckline.
why it is so special -- because all in one pieces, no need to sew the side edge, save some time.
I still haven't work it out how to knit from neckline. My mum and auntie said it is very easy, but they are so far away from me. So it may take me another year to learn that.
Here it is, I loved both styles. The orane /red one is cotton material, suitable for spring and autumn.

Short sleeve top Bamboo
This parttern is from Vogue crochet magazine. I have followed this magaize making couple items already, love it.
This is from Yoko Hatta - V-neck lace top, material is Stella bamboo.
It is a magic top, no matter me or my mum do fit perfectly.
As my mum knit so many tops and jumpers to me, this is my turn now.
I have brought it back to home and she can wear it in next summer.

Cable Front Capelet
This pattern is from Vogue Knitting winter 2011/ 2012.
It is my first time to try the cable project and use different color wool in sleeves. Easy pattern but looks so complicated.

Treasure Yourself
Not long time ago - I have said that I would not pick up any more self-help books. It is really not a issue to keep reading this kind of book but I think I know what to do if whatever happen, just like working out the Maths - I got the formula.
Honestly, how many of us could remember what to do during that particular time - mind went blank.
This week, I pick up this "Treasure Yourself" by Miranda Kerr.
Do you think I am her fans.. NO... but I heard a lot about her and now is new spring/summar fashion seasons, she is in all DJ advertisment. By accident, I found that book.
It is very good to see someone working in a very complicated industry and still know how to take care herself and understand "Dignity".
Life has a lot of up and down, every turn has a lesson to learn. It is an universal message from the date we born - do you remember how we learn walking, we fall again and again and then able to walk and then run.
From her experience " I have the choice to be greatful for the time I had with him, instead of dwelling on losing him, and it made me realise that life is so fragile that we need to really live and appreciate every moment. It also taught me that no one can heal your pain but yourself and through the power of gratitude and acceptance I was able to move forward"
Of course, no one want to lose our loved one. However, when the time come, we do have to say goodbye without a choice.
It is our destiny to meet each other, know each other and have a lot of good time. It will always live in our hearts and memories.

I can't believe the same lot no but have different color.
It is a bit disappointed. But it still kept me warn and can wear it at home.

Say Hi to my blog
Such a long time, I haven't updated my blog.
Probably too many ideas and don't know where to start.In the past 10 months, i designed to create my wolly Facebook page.
I have read some research before, It has indicated that starting to write a blog, a website, sign up Etsy are very easy steps, but how many people can keep it and maintain it for more than 5 years ???????
When times go by, we just forget to keep in touch with our friends, our reglious, or the blog we have documented our life for a period of time.
After 10 months, i am very happy to the reponses of the Page even it doesnt have couple hundreds, thousands or millions Like - BUT you never know, everything is possible as long as you want it.
When I compare my last year knitting to this year, my skills definitely improve a lot, at least I finish and follow the pattern in each project, not let my creativity jump on the top.
I still love to do it, I believed I have some talent, so it will keep going.

Ensure
Based on Oxford dictionary, it means "
(ensure against) make sure that (a problem) does not occur"
I don't really understand why people like to use this word in an email while we are as the same level. Besides that while you ask people helping you to resolve the issues, should they show some courtesy😡
Thirdly, the problem is created by others and I am the one to fix it, how I can ENSURE this is not happen again.
The excuse I can make for them - they don't really fully understand how to use this word at all.😱😱😱

New kitchen toy - juice extractor
We always think this spot will belong to a coffee machine,BUT obviously we change our mind as I feel somebody really need to boost his immune system💪, plus have discount at the moment. We'd better to make use this opportunity.
Apart from making juice, the pulp can use to make compose for garden or other dishes. It is quite interesting, I never thought about it.

三毛和九把刀之間
在台北機場,又係書店,真係周圍都是引诱,努力地說服了Marito.
在三毛和九把刀之間,最後的一刻我選擇了九把刀.書是包裝好,不能打開偷看,
就因為書皮的那句話,我就拿了一本出cashier付錢.
勵志書我不再需要,而中文的勵志書更加謝謝,因為許多翻譯得不夠原文的貼切.
"即使你的人生跟那些暢銷的心理勵志書完全背道而馳,那又怎样?"
Yes,又怎样,繼續煩躁和埋怨周圍的人和事.
'戰鬥'二字在書名出现有些不明白,是blog集成的書,又不是有大病為何要戰鬥呢?
今日看完你那場2009年激烈的戰鬥,那年我都是在戰鬥.
在不是自己的地方去爭取公平的對待
最後誰勝誰負沒有人敢大聲說明,但大家都心知肚明.
那些年是幼稚還是血氣過剩不重要,最重要在那場戰鬥中我學會了什麼.
'人生是不停的戰鬥',就是不停地學習,
學得懂就上新一課,學不懂就再來一次. Life Lesson!
很久沒有看過三百多頁的中文字,實在太爽,温習和學習了很多中文字和詞: 如"惡搞" !!

台北書店 Taipei Bookstore
去台湾,最大的心頭好是書店,但係買書對Marito是不能接受,書太重,行李就超重;
家中已有好多書.雖然我也是一個非常有節制的人,但我的腦子只知道這次是非買不可.
到了那間台北最大的書店, 安排好Marito坐下,書店有WiFi他可以慢慢玩.
我自己大書店裡走了數圈,是起碼五六個圈,因為我怕自己走漏了任何一個角落.
兩個幾小時,終於要走,我一本書都沒有買,因為太多選擇而我又不能太過份,所以我要買最有值得我花錢的那本.
離開書店,有三個作者在我腦海裡.
第一個是三毛,我喜爱她和荷茜的片段.太久沒有看中文書,真的不知道自己還會否喜歡她其他的作品.
第二個是幾米,不知道他的文筆但是有许多圖畫非常吸引,感觉好似看小王子一樣.
第三個-九把刀,2012年我才知道你是誰.連你是'那些年'的作者我都不太清楚.
你的書好似周圍都係.如果你的書不買得,不好看, 不會在最當眼的角落出现.
還有數天才離開台北所以我還有時間考慮,心想如果真是沒有機會買我都要返香港買.哈哈!
