Got the idea for serving this dish at home from a recent function at my workplace. A colleague shared her quick-n-easy preparation of the salad dip and this was how I got hooked to the idea. The Japanese cucumber was
Believe it or not, Hannah has an inclination for Chinese songs. This definitely has nothing to do with her parents! She has been learning new Chinese songs from her pre-nursery teachers and singing them whenever she is in the mood.

Yang always cringes whenever he happens to see me ordering items on the Internet. I should add that I spend mostly on our girl :) I usually don’t order directly from overseas online stores. I prefer to join spree organisers
