Tatted Pieces for Me!

The pictures dont do justice to the real things! Cannot wait to get my old Pentax camera back!

The six rounds are my orders from Faizon, the tatting genius! And the rest are bonuses from her to moi! Lucky lucky me! 2008 is great!

Books and Blooks, anyone?

Recent read in bookform!

Really enjoyed Alan Alda's "Never Have Your Dog Stuff"! It was a soulful tale of his childhood, life with a showbiz dad and a slightly mad mother! A guy with a truly fullfilled life!



and how about blogs which became books? Two great authors of blogs of entirely different contents turned into books or rather blooks?

Awang Goneng's "Growing Up In Trengganu"



Seth Godin's "Small Is The New Big"



Currently reading Elizabeth George's "Playing With The Ashes" courtesy of Katie. What are you reading?

My 1st FO of the year? Well almost.....

Pretty amazed myself at the speed it was done. I had fabric, polyfil, needle and thread at hand.... and whoalah it was completed in half an hour! well .... it was hand stitched!!

Bookcrossing ~ 1st Meetup Out of Kuala Lumpur!

Bookcrossing! We had a mini meetup in Melaka! A very first out of Kuala Lumpur Meetup!

Katie, Suryati and moi met up for lunch at the Avery Resort & Condo at Tanjong Kling in Melaka. Mini meetups are great too, giving the members more quiet time to talk to each other!



Noticed that the management team has added a reflexologi walk path on the grounds. Here are bird's eye view of it:





And the view of the new swimming pool at Melaka Club (Rotunda) beachfront property. View from the balconey of our unit at Avery:
