have you seen this? admission to my piano studio is closed to all adults, but I am seriously considering kitten students:)




maybe my body is starting to get used to the hot weather, and stopped swollen up. Today I felt wobbly even in my tinniest dress and I simply couldn't have that. So I had one of the most extraordinary dinner of the year, with three glass of beer, and gigantic plate of meat. And all the while a belly dancer flapped around me and musicians sang very happy songs. It was vulgar and fun at the same time. This is one of the most summery night. I haven't had beer in over a year!

I got up early in the morning, because today is recital day! I am super super super proud of my little bumble bees:P It really makes all the hard work worth it when you put it all in perspective.

mojito before 12pm, but t's never too early to drink. I am tired of my routine, teaching teaching teaching, and the heat makes me feel dizzy. It's time for a change!

lychee are so delicious, have you had any this summer?

I made this..it's a very delicious summer dessert/drink in China. It's sweet and should be served cold, well, who drinks anything hot in summer anyway? I think the white parts are some kind of white wood ear except they are called fungus on the package, they need to be soaked over night before cooking, and I added goji and some other stuff in it. According to the Chinese, this stuff is suppose to make your skin look good, I haven't seen the affects yet and I doubt I will look better than I do now, but it sure is tasty! :)

belated birthday flowers. They are so pretty I love them:)

an old friend of mine visited me from Japan so we chat over dinner and tried to catch up what went on in our lives in the past few years.

I really think that kelly is the best doggy in the whole wide world, I suppose every dog owner thinks that of their own pet?

4th of July weekend







So I bailed out on work Sunday because it made me feel that bad to work when everyone else is having a vacation. So instead I had lots of good food, long walks on the beach and hang out with three musketeers:p

except heat waves, I love everything about summer! Lots of summer dresses and sandals, outdoor concerts, grills, cold drinks, the beach, hmmm, and of course, hanging out with friends. I had brunch with Vivian and then visited a weird little shop next door that sells a lot of weird stuff. Went on shopping for clothes, I finally found some pretty dresses that look comfortable too.

here's what I got,

I'm a total meat eater and once in a while i will be interested in it enough to cook for myself. Charcoal BBQ is really labor intensive but in the end it's worth the trouble because the flavor is really very good. I also grilled some chicken without any spice in it just for Kelly, she LOVED it. Now I've had my fill of holiday fun, with a latte in hand I'm ready to practice, I work Friday, Saturday and Sunday:)

well, that was it. All done with my teeth extraction. I didn't want to cancel on my students in the afternoon but miraculously they all canceled even though usually they come in lessons very consistently. I guess I was meant to have a short break then. I'm not feeling too bright today but of course, Kelly made it all better. She's such a sweet doggy. We watched TV and ate strawberry jam.
