VanDusen Botanical Garden
Had a chance to visit VanDusen Botanical Garden due to a doll meet being held there on Saturday :D So glad I was able to make it ^o^ Car pooled with 3 friends ^o^(thanks again!)
I was editing a lot of photos and it crashed mid-edit and it’s already late so I will upload some non-doll photos which made the edit unscathed :P
Some art
Haven’t been drawing much these days ^^; do you peeps even remember I draw? lol
In this post are mainly some doodles to pack with the sewing I had been working on. I try to take quick photos of the sketches before I pack them in…
gunpla and nendoroid
With my husband’s encouragement I got a set of SD gunpla to work on last week (when it’s not so hot lol)
Husband said I should pick the one I like the least to work on first in case of mistake… I picked Gogg as I’m not sure if I like his oddly long arms out of the three, but I must say this little fella grew on me after I snapped him together ^^;
Obon service
When we went to Izamiya recently I took a look at their bulletin board and managed to catch a glimpse of Obon service organised by the Steveston Buddhist Temple happening on Sunday, so decided to go check it out :3
Took me about half an hour to walk there lol
Food ahead…
Documenting some food from eating in and out :P I’ll start off with this delicious green tea frappe bliss dessert… omg perfect for summer afternoon :3
The green tea frappe (shaved ice) is yummy and fragrant, red bean is not too sweet, and mochi chewy everything goes well with the scoop of green tea ice cream will definitely have it again if we go :P
Threadless
I had a splash of inspiration and decided to try to enter the Threadless challenge! :D
Pretty please vote for my design! ^O^!
Other mumbo jumbo — cats and miscellaneous life/food documentation…
Strawberry?
A few years ago I tried some organic strawberries at Wholefoods supermarket in Vancouver, and was shocked/surprised that they were naturally sweet o_o! The strawberries I ever had in Singapore are imported and are always very sour or tasteless ^^;
Since then I have been trying to catch the strawberry season — which is supposedly the main reason why the strawberries are sweet? I should have trusted my nose when they don’t smell sweet ^^; Below is from the haul of today ^^; Unfortunately they’re not sweet… lol They look fantastic tho :P
I wonder if I missed the season again? ^^; I hope I am just too early (LOL)
Zazzle issues
The Miraifox teeshirts have currently been pulled because zazzle is having problems producing the quality we expected…
Until it is rectified, we are trying to work with zazzle to remedy the situation. If you happened to receive a sub quality shirt, please do contact zazzle to have it sorted out ^^;/
I am really sorry for the trouble and inconvenience caused, we previously received the same type of tee shirts with different images, so we were shocked that the quality was not the same as the initial tee shirts. Read more
