0200 hours...

Coincidentally Steve and I couldn't sleep last night...so at 0200 hours in the morning we were sneaking around the living room watching our turtles sleep.... well....basically putting a glaring light on them so that they couldn't sleep.

Then we headed off to walk around our little island and got a drink at 7-11.  It is amazing how so many people are still up at this hour on the island...

soooo tired......

Wahh Fried Rice

One Chinese Fried Rice Please!!!  (said with a Chin-glish accent in Chinatown)

Wahhh... Mr Wong made dinner yesterday ...he made Fried Rice.... I was quite amazed because the grains of rice did not clump together!!!   Taste was good too!

Good job Mr. Wong.... maybe you can take over the household cooking from now on!!! wakakaka

Happy Cooking!

Sunday, November 28th.   Our dinner. 

Errrr... forgot how to change white balance... let me figure it out and hopefully the future food photos would be more appealing.

Photos have been edited.... fixed the white balance but not sure if it is correct b/c it is just my first attempt.  You can see the photos from this link:  http://amy-is-not-here.blogspot.com/2010/11/first-attemptbetter-than-not-attempting.html

Thank you Steve for helping with the washing and cooking!

Couple Resolutions for 2011

1)  Exercise together.... Steve can go jogging and i can ride my bike.

2)  Cook together... teamwork...makes the meal taste a lot better.

3)  Plan some camping trips together.

4)  Go on a date together at least once every two weeks.

lemon ice tea

lemon ice tea does not taste good when i don't have my hubby squishing the lemon slices for me....

彩虹下的幸福

Feeling very 幸福.... Does Mr. Wong feel the same?

可不可以幫我...

Everytime I take off my contact lens.. 我都會大叫 "老公，可唔可以幫我找我的眼鏡."  每次他都會問我為什麼不把它早D拿出來.  A few nights ago, I took off my contact lens as usual and found my glasses on the counter top... thinking I was pretty good this time and didn't need him to find my glasses for me.... I went up to him proudly and said I didn't need his help tonight.................

He then gave me a "look" and said he put my glasses on the bathroom counter for me ahead of time.....

When we were small and Christmas trees were tall

I actually haven't seen many of Steve's photos of when he was growing up... maybe i can convert the video from our wedding one day and post it on the blog...

I have no idea why my mother permed my hair when i was so young!!!  And this did not happen just once....

busy schedules

I wonder if other couples are like us?  We have been married for over 5 years now and i don't recall a period of time where we have spent consecutive evenings cooking dinner at home and having quiet evenings without working on things from the office.

I do appreciate how we adjust each other's schedules to make time for each other and how we try to help each other out with housework....sometimes a ride home from work together or a short walk is already quite special... quality not quantity.

Shadow

If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me.

Time Machine

I think it was in the summer of 1997 when Steve and I saw this at a shop up on the Peak... we both liked it immediately... for some reason, we said we would want to have one in out future home together.   Over the years we saw it at various shops but didn't buy it... This year for our 5th year wedding anniversary, Steve ordered it online from the States... The "Time Machine" is now sitting in our living room.  It is a noisy clock with a very special story behind it. 

a day together

Nothing really special was planned for October 20th 2010 Wednesday.   It was just to take a day off work and be together.   Initally we were going to have breakfast at the pier and watch people go to work while we didn't need to but we both slept in ...so we decided to leave PI in search of food.

We  headed to Elements and walked from there to TST....on our way we saw this dim sum place so we tried it....not too bad.... it has been a long time since we have had dim sum...even longer for just the two of us to have it by ourselves.

 Steve likes the chicken feet....

 The Green Tea bun with Custard was not so great....

 One of my favorites...

After a long day of walking around in TST...we had a relatively early dinner at Outback Steakhouse.

Steve's favorite...

Just a a relaxing day ....two friends that have known each other for 16 years.

16 years....

Saw Steve post this song on Facebook today... 16 years since we met...he is right...time flies...
