And i spotted this beside the daffodils. They look like tulip leaves and this looks like a tulip bud. If it is going to be, I will be in seventh heaven. I love tulips! Only in Spore, when dh bought them for me, they wilt very fast, so I told him not to buy tulips anymore.
I also told my classes before about the tulip bulbs i bought and brought home all the way from Holland.. which I tried to grow in Spore, but failed. despite the vernalization in the fridge.
Now! I might be having them right here in my garden... wow... i will snap many pics... watch out for it. It should be hor?? The parallel venation of a monocotyledonous plant, and they way the leaves wrap around each other like a sheath... Anyone wants to confirm it?
in case this runs out, i actually have frozen chicken soup too. cos last Sun was church potluck and I did my roasted chicken wings again. Then you know the wings have the last section which has not much meat right? they were all chopped off, so that it is easy to roast. I used those tiny chopped off sections to make chicken soup. still smells and tastes like normal chicken soup, only we don't get any meat. :-)
and oh, i found 2 more pkts of Tom Yam soup paste my mom bought for me. so yay, can have more Tom Yam soup next week!
another thing, we are going to buy a swing set!
what happened is: buses around here appear once in 1 hour maybe and they cost US$1.50 per trip no matter how short my trip is, and i can't walk to any playground, and we couldn't get any second-hand stuff... then the kids are really restless. then.. i saw this ad from K-mart. $89 for this swing set. discussed with dh... we will save from other areas and he will make more bows... haha, we're getting it! hopefully still has stock cos i saw the ad quite late!
it has 2 swings, a pull up bar, a see-saw like attachment, and a climb-up slide. yay. that should be good enough for burning up the kids' energy?
weather is not so good these few days, raining and snowing again. back to being cold. but by Fri it should be sunny again! :-)
