Merdeka Longgg stretcchhhh of holidays Part3

During this long break, mommy not only have refurbish her blog but also her pond garden with some of the stuff she bought with the vouchers she won from SSF (from Ajax Fabuloso contest)

Can you see the flowers in these pots..the lotus flowers and leaves?


and the heart shape red colour ones ?(can't remember the name)


(do you know the name?)

They are all artificial flowers that mom got from SSF to beautify her garden.


The grass with yellow sprouts (Ah Kong said it's called KAM PIK FAI WONG..dont ask me the meaning) is carpeting very well due to the daily rain. Look little Jasmine enjoy plucking them:



Due to the rainy and not so sunny weather, the pond water also has less algae (the green stuff that cloud and dirty the water making it look green).

The Japanese Kois were also happy and lively..good for feng shui.

Rainy season, frogs mating in my garden!

As we all knw, nowasdays it rain almost everyday and due to the rainy season..I guess it's ideal for frogs mating, too.

Past few days have been a great adventure for my hubby, my maid and I outside our garden..past sleeping time.!!

Why?? Because they were frogs croaking in my garden beside my koi pond. Their amplified croaks waked my whole neigbourhood and disturbed sleeping. I was so shy when my immediate neighbour called me when I was still at work to inform me that there were frogs croaking since afternoon till night and they can't sleep. I told her actually my hubby has caught 3 frogs that day but there were still some more.
Then my maid caught another 3 frogs the next afternoon.When I got back the next evening, they started their orchestra again. I caught 1 , hubby caught another 1 and another 1 just after we drove out to free the frogs at a nearby playground.Just a while ago, we found a pair mating and one just staring at them. At last we caught all 3 and dump them near a drain at a nearby playground.

This is the latest ones we caught mating in the pond and already got tadpoles swimming inside the pond. The big fat one is female and the one riding n top is male almost 1/2 size smaller.




So have you calculated in total how many frogs we caught in the past 3 days? Winner will get to cook "frog" porridge for dinner . Ha ! Ha!

Yes the answer is 1 dozen frogs. My hubby will buy empat ekor tomorrow . But thinking of it we caught 12..frog number is 3 digit . Then it will be 5 ekor not empat ekor. By the way, what is the number for Frog for those of you who buy numbers??

My beautiful Daisies

I'm sure everyone has a hobby. Certainly blogging is one of them. Blogging is my new found hobby wheras my favourite hobbies are comping (taking part in contest..and i will make a blog on contest in future) , gardening, shopping etc.

Since I love gardening, I also love to "buy potted flowers" (the key word is buy and not plant from seeds or cuttings by myself..no timelah).

Few weeks ago before Christmas, I bought a few pots of daisies which look so inviting at the JUSCO supermarket in Kinta City IPoh. Of course they cost more than those we could get from Cameron Highlands but I don't mind paying for the extra to offset the temptation and inviting look they have..as well the wear and tear n petrol to go all the way to Cameron Highlands to but them.

Take a look......aren't they pretty? Would u buy them if you are a flower freak like me?
