The lion dances have come to 1 Utama again. If it’s the one thing that gets me excited about Chinese New Year, it’s the lion dances. I love those agile feet, the loud drums and the colorful lions showing off their skills.
We managed to catch the opening lion dance, the first one that 1 Utama [...]

Valentine’s Day is also rolling up fast. It’s less than a month away. Have you started thinking about what to buy for that someone special?
The economy isn’t so good but you save by using coupons. I usually find great savings with Overstock deals.
Overstock has something for everyone which means you don’t have to look everywhere. [...]
Chinese New Year is in the air
Posted on January 19, 2008 - Filed Under shopping places | Leave a Comment
The traffic jams have started. Parking at the malls is getting harder especially with the weekend crowds out in full force. Lots of Chinese New Year items are out and being snapped up like nobody’s business. Expect this to be the scenario for the coming weeks leading up to Chinese New Year.
I’m happy that 1 [...]
a touch of Bond
Posted on January 18, 2008 - Filed Under home & garden | Leave a Comment
I love James Bond movies but I love the gadgetry even more. This plasma lift console reminds me so much of the ones in those movies.
It’s really neat how the plasma TV screen slides out at the press of a button, otherwise it stays tucked away from sight.
I’m all for modern stowaway functionality around the [...]

Lots of people make some very decent money from trading stocks when times are good. It’s something that mothers and retired folks can do easily from home.
Some of these people are pretty tech-savvy too and I’m sure an options express tool like PowerOptions would be a big help to keep their investment profile in one [...]

Back in December, DH was in Japan on a business trip. Although I didn’t go, I’m completely bowled over by some of the photos he took of the shopping places. I love shopping, what can I say? Wish I’d been there… :wink:
I found this shopping concept of a pedestrian mall pretty interesting. It’s like a row [...]

When I was studying overseas, I used to call home whenever I was stuck in the middle of cooking something I desperately want to eat, but have very fuzzy ideas on how to cook it. International phone calls were very expensive then.
But now if you have a child studying overseas, there’s the option of internet [...]
sweet lavender pillow

DH bought this during his trip to Japan. Interestingly, it’s what is called, an aroma(tic) lavender pillow filled entirely with, you guessed it, lavender.
Of course, it smells heavenly when you lay on it and it’s supposed to induce sleep for those who have insomnia.
It feels like it’s filled with potpourri so it takes a bit [...]
carpeting at manufacturer-direct prices
Posted on January 14, 2008 - Filed Under home & garden sales & discounts | Leave a Comment
Although it’s not practical to carpet our homes because of the warm weather, I still like the cozy feeling that carpeting gives a home. It’s like walking into a hotel room which always gives me that nice, cozy feeling.
Not surprisingly, one of our friends has decided to carpet his home theater and fully air-condition it. [...]
