Etcetera II...

Celebration #1: The husband got me a new keyboard top to replace
my broken one. Check out the dinginess! Gross.......

"R.I.P ole' keyboard..."-- the husband

Celebration #2: New Year's Nian Gao: Sticky rice cake with
red bean (made by mom...but I learned how! Tutorial coming
soon hopefully!)

New Year's Dinner at Mom's: Dumplings, sticky rice, ribs, veggies
and fish! She cooked enough for 20 people but there were only 6
of us.

Mom was so proud of this dish: Sticky rice with chicken ... YUM!
This is why I LOVE being asian...

---Another reason why I love being asian....
Happy New Year's!

This is a poor angle shot but the wardrobe was in my way.
I simply added a vase of pussy willow branches from mom...
and it made my bedroom look more....complete.

O.O.T.D: Getting ready for R.E.D's Workshop:
Jay & I had the honor in speaking to our young
adults about dating! (photo taken by Nate)

I loved this idea! After the marriage workshop, we got to personalize
some coasters with our "thoughts" to our spouse. It's now sitting
on our nightstands....I love' em & I love him....hehehe....so cheesy.

This is the rocking chair that I used to nurse Nathan in, then
I took it to my classroom ...and now, it won't fit in my
classroom with 30 kids...so now it's back home. I love how it sits in the
corner next to books waiting to be read.... just gotta find the time...

My latest favorite picture of my lil' love....
