SilverHairsClub April Gathering, Sun 29 Apr 2007

Thanks to the sunshine, I hope that all who turned up had a good time.  There were altogether 40 of us.  I had said a mini potluck but most of you were naughty and made it into a MAXI potluck that no dinner was needed at the end of the show. 

Ron Lai had a suggestion that we have a little SHC flag or banner that we could use at activities outdoor so that we could be found easily especially by the newbies.  I agreed and had also thought of using a placard, but somehow slipped my mind on the day.  Perhaps whoever is the event organiser at an outdoor activity can consider this proposal.I want to thank Lily Yen for helping me with the registration, Kenneth for being there early to reserve the nice spot away from the sun, Pheng Sok, Kristy, Peggy, Clara  for helping with the litter and everyone else for their help in one way or the other.  Thank you Terence for  this opportunity to do something I have never done before.  I enjoyed every moment of it.  Most of all thanks to all of you who were there for without you this event would not be.

This is the first outdoor monthly gathering and I hope you guys can bring along your mats and come down to meet up with the others and then sit  back to enjoy the music by the Singapore Chinese Orchestra. 

As the afternoon may be hot so dress cool and do remember your umbrella, sunshades and very important water.

I have mentioned mini potluck as it would be easier to bring snacks, sandwiches, puffs, titbits, crackers, chips, fruits, jelly, whatever that is light and convenient.  Bring just enough to share with two or three persons as we can have dinner after the show.  The Taman Serasi Food Garden  would be a good choice and there is variety and everyone can choose whatever they want.  It is situated near the Tanglin Gate entrance.

  1. Oi Cheng,

    Under tremendous pressure from you and Ann, I shall bring the “one day sun-dried beef” from Chiangmai.

    What about Chiangmai tea? Ok, tea also.

    Terence

  2. You wilt when pressured by Oi Cheng & Ann but will you bend a little backwards for me………………yes, just bend a little backwards, that’s all, nothing to bring.

  3. Hi Tim,
    I will do almost anything for you.

    Think of you, I am eating somne fried lizards, approx 10 inches long. Gosh, they taste like fried fish. Later, I am going to have some fried grass hoppers.

    I understand that grass hoppers help your body muscles while lizards keep the skin soft and tender.

    I may bend forward and get you some. But you got to promise me you will eat them.

    Terence

  4. Hi Terence,

    Thanks and I’ll hold you on yr promise……..no excuses will be accepted hor, even if eating too much friedies gives you the constipation and so you cant bend, forward, backward, whatever.

    Sure, I’ll eat anythg you pass over to me, also a promise.

    Btw, am now catching cockroaches……..they say fried cockrioaches is an anti-ageing food………….pls try some and tell us what becomes of you, can?

    Hehe, no computer till Monday so see you and everyone then; meanwhile, enjoy !

  5. Hi Terence/Tim Kor,

    1 )
    Hi Terence,
    Ooi La La!
    It seems like Terence is starting the FEAR FACTOR for SHC.

    Fried grasshoppers.
    When I was in Seoul,my tourist guide once offered me but
    without telling me first until I had tasted a few. I almost spat out when told it was fried grasshoppers.

    However, it tasted BETTER than fried ikan bilis and eversince,I ENJOYED eating them.

    Terence, can you pls. buy back a few packets of fried grasshoppers from Bangkok for SHC members who wish to sample them on the
    29/4 gathering ?

    Fried lizards ( Are these padi field or jungle lizards abt. 10″ long ??? or Chiangmai home lizards ?)Perhaps you can buy a few packets for us to SAMPLE too for the MORE Adventurous.

    Hi Tim,
    Talking abt your fried cockroaches, I never heard of ?

    Your own new research to Anti -Ageing ?

    Will be hot items like Slim Ten,Collagen or Royal Jelly and sold at Guardian/Watson pharmacies 1 fine day if you can PROVE its potency.

    My deceased mum once told me that
    they used to feed toddlers with herbal dried cockroaches after they have been “SHOCKED” by some unpleasant incident to ” teng sum”
    “??” to stabilise the child in Traditional
    Chinese Medicine.(TCM )
    Is it TRUE ?

    Btw, Tim have 2 faces.
    Like the faces of a coin, he can be HUMOUROUS at times but when it comes to Protected Password Small Group meetings ,you can see the SERIOUS Side of him too.

    Adios,
    Steven Chan

  6. Ann, you now not only have sun-dried beef to go with the wine, there’s also fired lizards, grasshoppers and maybe some fried cockroaches. Anyone, wine glasses?
    Steven, I have a couple of recipe books on healthy eating which I have put aside for you. I remember you say you have been experimenting with cooking. Perhaps you can prepare something nice next time when we have a potluck gathering. For now, can only have “fishy” jelly.
    Tim: your presence at this gathering will bring lots of joy and laughter so, even if you bring nothing, it’s fine. Have yet to share your humor. WIll make sure I do this gathering.
    Terence: CM tea? Thank you. Fried … let’s see how many are brave enough to sample them. Can you find the macadamia nuts which went missing on me last November?

  7. Closer the date, i shall get the grass hoppers, fried beef, etc plus the tea.

    What’s else? Go ahead and ask.

  8. Hi Terence, how about some Thai dessert like Durian /Mango glutinous rice ? Yummy , Yummy.

    Steven

  9. Yes, we shall have Durian/Mango glutinous rice. This is possible, since I am coming into Singapore around noon.

  10. Terence, you are a devil. Durian glutinous rice is my favourite. The food is more interesting than the music, not to mention the company. I’m going to miss this gathering (sob!sob!) :(

  11. I support Steven’s suggestion that Terence kindly bring a few kilos of fried grasshoppers/lizards for our sampling. Thanks.

    I was with you when yr mum told us abt the potency of fried cockroaches. In fact, she went on to repeatedly remind us that we had to be very careful choosing which cockroach to fry & eat bcos for a man to eat a female cockroach, he will, without exception, be effeminated. Likewise, if a she eats a he-cockroach, she will be so emancipated that she starts tearing her clothes, climbs the tress and acts like tarzan. Haha, you were dozing off when yr mum sounded this warning and so how many f-cockroaches hv you eaten todate?.

    Cheng, you’ll be disappointed…ah liu is like a piece of log at gatherings, stammers like a choked train and scratches his head every 2 minutes for things to say. So to hold a conversation, he keeps a recorder in his pockets with pre-recorded messages pinched fr the MRT announcements.

    Great if we can hv some macadamia nuts; otherwise madonna nuts will do. Or just any mechanic’s nuts.

  12. Tim,

    ( Great if we can hv some macadamia nuts; otherwise madonna nuts will do. Or just any mechanic’s nuts.)

    Tim Ah Liu, I think you are going NUTS soon.
    Ha! Ha!

    Tks for reminding Terence to bring back the CREEPY CRAWLIES from BKK for us to sample.

    Steven

  13. Hi Terence,

    My wife Kristy and I will be joining all of you wonderful people on the 29th. As advised by Ivy, we will be handing you at least 40 pairs of spectacles for you to take to Chengmai. However, we are only able to make it there after 5pm.

    Till we meet again, cheerio

    Robert & Kristy

  14. I haven’t been to the Botanics for a long, long time. It will be a lovelier place than usual Besides all the tropical plants, there’ll be creepy-crawlies from Thailand. Hey, how can I miss such an event. I’ll be there!

  15. Hi there,

    I would love to be there for this outing. I will bring some sausages/hotdogs?
    Shirley Wong

  16. Looking forward to see you again Shirley. We last met at East Coast during one of cylcing activity and got a lift from Ronald Wi to Eunos bus stop. Thanks in advance for sausages/hotdogs.

  17. I am a new member. Have not met any of u yet. Would love to be there. Bringing a pandan cake.

    Thanks
    Jessie

  18. Hi all,
    I am brand new to Silverhairs. I will be joining the gathering at the Botanic Gardens and will bring “chwee Kueh” fron the famous Serangoon Garden stall.
    Best/Lesley

  19. Dear all,

    I will land at the garden via Cathay Pacific with HongKong Noodle specially catered from SinMing Kitchen. The noon will surely be a little classical & romantic with the Musical Chinese Orchestra, a sip of Chinese Tea packet(just from Yeo Hiap Seng)and a graceful fan. Wow! waiting to see Jacky Chan (Kungfu Hero.)

  20. Hi all,
    After having read Terence’s email more carefully, realise that chwee kueh is bad choice for this gathering. So change tag….. I will bring something snacky…..not sure what that would be…but will scourge the supermarts for something…see you soon!
    Best/Lesley

  21. With so many good people bringing so many good things – Terence’s crawlies crawling all over him and get fried for that, Lesley’s becoming a scourge for scouring cold storage jelita only to look for s’goon gdn chwee kuehs, Yew Kwong’s dumb fish, Caroline’s A-G cups, Shirley’s sausages fr hot dogs & everything fishy fr Steven – the rest of us will hv a big problem bcos we wont know what more to bring ……….

    Zahriah, so thotful of you to bring chinese tea in an afternoon expcted to be warm & dry. But if you only want to sip the tea packets then maybe pls let us finish the drinks first, can? Of cos, you can change your mind anytime and sip the packets of tea.

    Jacky Chan the gungfu hero fr hongkong is presently filming in China and so more probably, the one coming is Jackie Chen, the goondu giggolo fr hongkah…..be careful hor.

  22. I was debating between this and watching the finale of The Dance Floor. I have decided to be at Botanic Gardens with good food, good music and good company. I enjoy concerts in the park and have been to a number of these. Great way to relax and enjoy a Sunday evening…

  23. Hi All,

    Please count me in. I should be bringing some sandwiches and cakes perhaps.

    Thanks.

  24. Hi

    I’ve not been to the Botanic Gardens since 19forgotten. Please count me in. Will bring something light :)

    Priscilla Wee

  25. Hi Oi Cheng

    I’ve finally decided to join you guys… so look out for me and possibly some cake or sandwiches.

    Kenneth

  26. Hi Oi Cheng

    Am Ronald Lai & my spouse Alice Tan wish to join you and the group to get to know each other, as we are new members of SHC, will see
    all of you there, RAIN or SHINE lah…..

    RONALD & ALICE

  27. Hi Guys/Gals

    Myself and Nina Gan will be attending. As usual Nina keeps having problem with her password so I am posting on her behalf.

    Rgds
    Eliza

  28. Hi!

    Gwyneth and I are coming with dried satay fish and preserved plums. Gwyneth is having the same problem, unable to login. Hope Terence cld help. Longing 2 C u all tis sunday and get sun bake!

    veronl

  29. Will be there to join in the fun too. Haven’t decided what to bring but will figure out something. See you gals and guys under the hot humid sky at Botanic Gardens.

    Catherine

  30. Dear All,

    A gentle reminder.

    We’re presently experiencing half-day sunshine & half-day rain which means that the field in Botanical Gdns will remain wet. So while the umbrellas will provide the comfort of shelter, they cant be sat on. My laps can only take 1 Patrick, 2 Terences and perhaps 3 Stevens.

    Plastic sheets which are used to wrap electrical appliances may be a good choice as ground sheets. They’re light to carry, foldable and easily disposed of after the get-together.

    You still have at least 3.100 minutes to go on a plastic sheet hunting.

  31. Hi Oi Cheng,

    Is there a time or place for us to meet or do we made our way to the Symphony Lake.
    Please advise.

    Regards, Melissa

  32. I visited my favourite crawlies suppliers. he had cockcroaches, rice field grasshoppers, silk worms, ants, frogs and bettles.

    Wont bring tea, as i am not bring hot water. sorry, as i am coming to function direct from airport.

    See u all there. and enjoy the compamy of SilverHairsclub friends.

    Terence

  33. Hi everyone

    As the day draws nearer and the weather being so unpredictable, please remember to bring along your umbrellas and plastic mats.
    Believe it is going to be more crowded with our SHC members now registered at 47. Do try to be early so that we can seat ourselves together.
    It would be good if we can all make our way to the Symphony Lake ourselves. You can print out the map found on this post.
    One final reminder, please do not leave anything behind.
    Looking forward to meeting all of you.

  34. Terence, luck is with you……..the warring camps are close to a truce and if that happens, they will fly you in in a A380 to land direct on the Botanical Gdns lawn so you can empty all the hot water from the plane, leaving you no excuse to enter the “no tea” plea.

    Btw, certain adverse presumptions may be made against a gathering of 5 or more persons especially when the matamata sees a man with crawlies fried and charred (and so supposed to be dead) crawling all over him, from one nostril into the other and out from his ears as he continues to sing & explain to the mata what a weird “secret love” he has with beatles & cockroaches……

  35. You can check the weather report from this link. It gives a 3-day forecast. http://app.nea.gov.sg/data/mss/docs/3dayotlk.htm
    The concert will only be postponed if there is heavy rain with thunder.
    Whatever it is, our gathering is on. Let’s all keep our fingers and toes crossed that we have fair weather. Should the weather be against us, we will gather at the Taman Serasi Food Garden near the Tanglin Gate entrance. See you all!!

  36. Terence

    My apologies. Something cropped up and I will have to give this outing a miss. See you another time. Enjoy yourselves.

  37. Hi all and those who can skate, see you there and besides munchies and all, will be skating there ( not sure can or not ,but will bring it anyway). Btw , will bring some ice cream cones, to barter trade, so that i get a least a piece of everything there, esp Ken’s Tiramisu, and someone’s carrot cake ( already promised me a piece) and Terence glutinous mango/durian rice ?

    Three reasons to skate there, one the road there is nicer to skate, secondly, i can see the whole botanical garden in 1 hour and lastly can get to the shelter faster when it starts to pour.

    So hope “one up on the B Gees”, you will bring your skates this time(last week at the cyling at East coast, you mentioned you can and have your own skates), so bring it this time and also your carrot cake.

    Cheers,
    Allrounder

  38. I am wildly excited about what I plan to get this evening. We have this market that fries and sells cockcroaches, grasshoppers, bettles and frogs. You will have them fresh on Sunday afternoon. Never bought it for anybody else, just for my own consumption.

    Sorry, not bringing tea, as I am unable to bring hot water. Will be coming direct from airport.

    I am planning to get mangoes. But, we need someone to peel them or you need to eat them like bananas.

    Thanks Oi Cheng and everybody for the strong support. Keep the friendship running for years to come.

  39. Hi Allrounder

    Is nice to skate at Botanic Garden where the walkways and pavements are really smooth and clean without bumps in any place, flora to admire, beautiful plants to appreciate, except no monkeys around. All these nice things are there, but have to disappoint you that you and everyone else, including me will have to walk or at least can jog to the site, whether rain or shine. For your infor, Botanic Garden have strict ruling, please refer to OI CHENG’s posting in RULE 4 (sub-section).

    See all of you there, CHEERS……

    Ronald & Alice Lai

  40. Hi, I’m Eileen, a new member, same as Jessie
    I have not met anyone before,would like to know
    member in SHC and some relaxation at Botanic
    Garden,would bring some curry puff along too.
    thanks

  41. Terence, i thot I cd call yr bluff but never imagined that you really brought in those crawlies which looked more eerie than alive. So if 1 day you say you’re now Monica Seah Kim Seng, sure, i wont bet my last dollar on it as you might find it irritating to carry a useless appendage that has lost its appeal.

    Thanks Oi Cheng, the outing was very successful and we had glorious food galore so much so that i cd see squiffy Steven cavorting abt in btwn sampling wine, worms & women.

    Nice to meet up with Ron, Robert and their gorgeous spouses. Happy, loving couples.

    And tell you all a secret…….Dolly may sometimes carry that matronly look but she’s scared stiff by rubber bands. Try it and she’ll squirm & do anythy you ask like peeling off the heads of grasshoppers and swallowing them all in 1 gulp, haha.

  42. Oh how glorious it is to be on leave from work this day! Happy, loving couples – yes, I saw Robert giving Kristy a hand to get up the slope. Very nice. But take a look at the picture on page 6 of today’s TODAY. The body language gives all away…

  43. Hi All SilverHairs N also Not so Silver, in fact Black.

    My spouse and I greatly enjoyed the outing with all of you at the SBG, with a shower of blessing (as told to Oi Cheng) that she must have had prayed very hard for the rain to stop in order that our 1st outdoor get-together would be a success.

    Thanks very much, Tim Liu, for your beautiful compliment, it warms our hearts to have people like you around, otherwise the sun will not shine for us yesterday, and many days to come.

    Credt must go to Oi Cheng for organising this event, and of course Terence for your initiative to get SHC members to come together and to know one another,especially your CRAWLIES, we will not forget.

    We have met many of you, like Lily Ho, Jade Phua, Ann Giri, Gladys Tan, Shirley Wong, Jessie, Kenneth Tan, Eleanor Chan, Yew Kwong, Daniel, Steven, Beng Wi, Tim Liu, Dolly, Robert, Kristy, Melissa, Lina Tan, LH Jie, Joseph Tan, Pam, Zariah, Pheng Sok and many others (if we could only remember their names, our apologies) and not forgeting Oi Cheng and Terence, is nice to know all of you, and had good conversations for the day.

    REGARDS
    Ronald & Alice Lai

  44. It was indeed a fabulous outing, never mind the slow and sleepy pieces that the Orchestra played at times. Dolly – matronly? Hmmm…

    Glad to have been able to put more faces to names seen on this site, although I am still waiting to meet the other two “Shirleys”.

    As for dear friends who asked for my contact, I can be reached at 9459 9559 or sugarine21@yahoo.com.sg

    Update on my hotdog stall in “Business”.

    Shirley Wong

  45. Oi Cheng,

    Thank you so much for making the afternoon a great event. We appreciate your coming up with the idea of having the SHC gathering at the Botanic Gardens. I am very glad because the event truly meets the club’s objective of providing a platform for SilverHairs to meet new and more friends.

    Kenneth, thank you for helping out. And to the many of you who brought all the food, desserts and fruits.

  46. Hey Ron,
    At the rate you are going you will be winning the T-shirt Terence is offering. …..i.e. if you could match 50 names to 50 faces of SHC members.

    Terence..instead of blowing whistles and waving banners…like Japanese tourists….maybe you could put up the T-shirts for sale. The next time there is a gathering like the SBG..maybe there will be a smattering of people wearing the T-shirt…which will be a welcome sight for newcomers. Just a thought.

  47. I must say THANK YOU ANN. I appreciate your kindness in coming back and walking out of the Botanics with me.

  48. Hi Shirley Wong

    Since you are looking for a Hot-dog stand, I would like to suggest that you approach Parkway Parade Management at Marine Parade Road, where they are holding a FOOD FAIR very often, and the stall holders often cook on the spot. The stall holders sell various types of food, like rozak, mee siam, vietnamese mango salad, kong-bak-pau, kueh tu-tu, vietnamese laksa, tea-eggs.

    Hi Terence

    It appears that your column on “GUEST” may misuse. Under cover of “Dr Jakyle & Mr Hyde” (hope spelling correct). That’s nothing wrong to use your names, if you are not writing any thing thats off the mark.

    Ronald Lai

  49. Hi everyone. Sorry for not going and so not bringing the cup cakes. My colleagues told me that we should be working whole day Saturday and Sunday afternoon. I thought I would have time to make it to the BG for the get together. Very disappointed cos the unpacking was not done until 7.30pm Sunday. Some of my colleauges stayed on at work till 10pm. Then things in the office are still not in order so we had a full day yesterday. Thanks goodness its a holiday today so that I could do some typing. Glad to know everyone had a good time. Wished I was there. Hopefully next time. As for All rounder/Guest, carrot cake some other time :)
    Warmest Regards :D

  50. I like Jie’s idea of we SHCians wearing our own tees at our very unique gatherings. Maybe, the tees Terence presently keep are too long & so make the wearers look a bit suaku, not reflective of the vibrant us.

    So Terence, perhaps you shd cut out the sleeves & the lower halves of your tees, into singlets for guys & tanktops for the ladies, to let the young know how hot we silverhairs are as we enter hotter months. Dont worry abt armpit hairs…the gals dont hv any; the guys do hv a lot but dont see it as a problem.

    Caroline, we did miss you and hope you’ll be able to join us the next time.

    Pheng Sok treated us to her cakes in a bit smaller cups….A-minus (i reckon) but very tasty no less. I continued slurping the cups even after blurping on the cakes. Well, in life, if I want to munch on what’s in E cups, i’ll hv to be patient & wait.

  51. Wow, seem like everything I joined in a outing, I got myself a new nick le… from Yang Yu Guan, Chao Fei Yan and now Matron look.. Sorry to disappoint all, even I am scared by rubber bands but hor… no way I am going to peel off the heads of grasshoppers and swallowed in 1 gulp la… that is even more extreme scrary lor

    Hi Caroline, I also waited long long for cup cakes le.. but I guessed at times, we got no choice where our pay check is concerned lor.. this overwrite all others. Hate to admit but vry true lor. Nevertheless, we will wait for the next gathering for your cup cakes liao…

    Hi Oi Cheng, thanks for being such a great organiser for the event.. I really enjoyed it doe we are practically talking among ourselves instead of enjoying the music lor.. hehehehe.

    In fact, while going back, Sarah told that maybe next time we can consider Fort Canning Hill also… We should rite??? Dolly

  52. So, pls be honest…..are you Yang Yu Guan, bro of Yang Yu Huan, better known as buak kiau bao su ah guan who chao lor 1,000 years ago ? If you’re, then even tho you hv become our Dolly pop(ular), I will still shrink you into a lollipop and suck you dry for owing me 500 yuan in gambling debts.

    But of cos if you plan to hold a session at Fort Canning to win back the 500 yuan (which, with add-on interest, is now $3.1 million), I’ll give you the chance but suggest that you use an A-cup to cover the dice, which suits you comfortably than a B-cup which you’ll find it too big and so feel empty.

  53. After the updated post, I thought I could zip my mouth already. But seeing my name mentioned, I’d just like to say thanks and am glad you have enjoyed yourselves.
    Zariah, do thank your Mum with a big fat kiss for frying such nice mee and meehoon goreng, but remember, you must peel the prawns before passing them to her to goreng ok?
    Everyone dispersed so fast and the sky turned dark before I got out of SBG. I have to call Christina and was glad she found me.
    I thought Ron Lai was going to buy me a drink?! or there is a difference between going for a drink or buying a drink???!!!
    Tim, Pheng Sok brought Shepherd’s Pie, not cakes lah. Eh! you very “urg xin” leh! slurping on the cups. I am looking forward to Caroline’s cup cakes but never mind now, I better try her “ang moh” carrot cake instead. Caroline, please reserve a place/piece for me when you ready.

  54. So sweet of you all. Actually, if I had a choice, I would have forgone the money (OT) for your company. But this is boh pian. Sure, I owe you all my cakes. Will let you all know when my tea party is. I am checking if the venue is available. 26 May (Saturday) Are you all free on that day? Suppose to be tea party but the place got no air con so very hot leh. It will be from 6pm-11pm. Will have cakes and tea/coffee and some chicken wings (Caroline’s special recipe). Are you all game?

  55. Oh forgot. Ah Tim Gor. You gotta make yourself available for the tea party if you want your E cup cakes :D

  56. Yes, Oi Cheng, Pheng Sok did come with the handsome shepherd who, after unloading the pies from his sheep, found them and Allrounder’s skates missing……….hehe, believed Allrounder walked to his car bare-footed, stepping gingerly on somebody’s cups.

    Caroline, dont worry lah…..so long as there’s free makan, ah liu sure go one, be it served in A-cup, E-tub or just hands of friendship we hold & rub. So no issue even if it’ll be hotter than madonna in heat……..

    (Shirley reading, can i pls place an order of sausages/hogdogs with you for this gathering? Tks)

  57. Tim,

    Of course you can place an order of sausages/hotdogs for this gathering? Did you manage to make yourself one at the Botanical Gardens gathering?

    However, I thought the occasion was for us to finally taste Caroline’s Ang Moh Carrot Cake and her special chicken wings. I would definitely make my day free and my tummy empty.

  58. Hey Caroline

    Can you start a post on your tea party? I take your comment here as an invitation to sign up. And not wanting to miss out on the carrot cake, cup cake, etc, here I am putting my name down…

    Joy

  59. Hi Caroline,
    I wuld very much like 2 attend the May 26 gathering at ur plc but might hv to give it a miss this time… looks like I am going to miss ur ‘hou liao’…

    Ah Tim, doe i might not hv wining luck everytime I played mahjong but hor.. definitely not everytime I su hor… so where I got or tang u 500 Yuan har…

    Don’t worry that I am sure Sarah wuld disappoint everyone of us here to arrange a Fort Canning gathering la… akan datang la… be patient le…

  60. Good morning, Yes, Joy. Happy to tell you I have set up the Tea Party invitation posting so you can now post your name there. Shirley, you too. And Ah Tim Gor, you too. And all who wish to come, pls see my posting. Looking forward to the having you all come and enjoy the evening with me and the rest of SHCians. :D
    PS could not sleep last night thinking what to bake. But dont worry, just come and enjoy and let me do the thinking and baking.

  61. Shirley, i was soaking in the fun and soaking sweat under the sun but to make one sausage for myself when I dont need an extra………hehe, why wd i do that for?

    I thot of adding a bit more selection to Carol’s carrot wings & chicken cakes and at the same time doing my first albeit small biz with you to cater for, say, +/- 20 persons (depending on space constraint). Deal?

    Btw, if anyone wants to see a sage, he must eat a lot of sawsages.

  62. Hi Ron,

    Thanks for the tips about Parkway Parade Food Fairs. Would certainly call them up to make enquiries.

    Hi Tim,

    Since Caroline has started a post on her tea party, let’s adjourn our “sausage-talk” to that.

  63. Hi Caroline

  68. Oh Dolly, you know I tried from last night until now until want to cry already. I email to Terence to help me post lor. I am better with the pots and pans in the kitchen than the computer in my office. Last time my profile one, I try until want to cry also and then dont know what I press then come out on the blog. Aiya :(

  72. Hi Carolina Gee
