The award goes to.....

 Lisa from Confession of a Call Center Girl had given me the Stylish blogger award last week. I must said it is a real surprise.  Thanks Lisa, you are too sweet.


Now I think I am supposed to give away 15 more awards.  This is what took so long about this post. First of all I don't even go around 15 blogs regularly :-P Some popular blogger probably already have this reward.  If this hasn't come from Lisa, I'd put her in my list too.  At first I attempt to avoid repeat, then it became impossible.  So I'll just put down the blog and not do the research of which blog already go this award.  There should be no harm done with getting the same award twice, right? So here it goes.  The stylish award goes to 



  1. Anthrodottir 
  2. Respect the shoes
  3. Belle Seattle
  4. Sweet Laundry Love
  5. That damn green dress
  6. The Girlest Boy Mom
  7. Top Drawer
  8. Where the Lights Are Bright
  9. Lovely Apidae
  10. Adiaphane
  11. Love at First Shop
  12. Liziologie
  13. All Things Aimee.
  14. Ro Ro Ro your blog
  15. Running on Anthro

I don't know if I need to share something about myself, but I guess it doesn't hurt, so here are some little facts:

  • I am an equal opportunity eater.  I am extremely picky in terms of quality of the food, but there isn't any particular ingredient I don't eat
  • I am terrible at sport and extremely unfit.  I cannot do a single push up.  However I carried my 35 lb son even when I was 9 month pregnant with my daughter. 
  • I love gardening and can tell many plants's names by just looking at the leaves.  My favorite flower is peony.
  • I like quirky cars.  I had a SAAB and now drives a Prius. Neither of which has a conventional engine starter.  So whenever I am in other people's car, it takes me a while to figure out how to start the engine.
  • The highest place I have been to is Mt Everest base camp.  The lowest? on a submarine in Hawaii -255 feet blow sea level.
  • The most beautiful scenery has to be one evening driving towards Monument valley.  The pillar of red orange moutain appears at the end of the road, flowing on top of a layer of purple evening fog.  It was so surreal  I was questioning if I am still on earth.
  • My mandarine is very close to standard except for certain word I don't' know wether I should curl or not curl my tongue.  Most time I just randomly pick one and 50% chance I'll be right.  Hubby kept teasing me about it.  He said I also sometime make a pronunciation that is in-between a curl and non-curl sound...

    1. Thank you so much! How exciting:) I really appreciate you giving me the award!

      I love peonies too! Aren't they gorgeous? How cool that you have been to the Mt. Everest base camp and in a submarine. I haven't done either, but they both sound really fun/adventurous.

    3. Oh, I love gardening too. I love knowing all the names of different plant and flowers, it's like when you know what they're called, you open yourself up to a whole new world. Ok, I'll stop sounding like a complete dork!

    4. Thanks for thinking of me- I'll do my best!

      These are some splendid little morsels about yourself- base camp at Everest? wow. underwater in a submarine? so cool- the closest I've ever gotten is the 20,000 leagues 'ride' at Disneyland, or dipping my face in the ocean!

    5. Thanks for the blog award, I'm flattered!

      I consider all mommies super-humanly strong - who else but a mom can carry a toddler on her hip with three bags slung over her other shoulder while dragging a tricycle while walking uphill to get to her car in the pouring rain?! ;o)
