Eat, Play and Leave~~

The post is dedicate to my friends.

Time flies and we are leaving for SF tonight.  We are glad that we can get back to our regular schedule in USA, and interestingly, most of my friends from USA are counting on days going back to their home as well. They miss their home very much as well.  


I love the life in Taipei but I guess I am used to doing everything on my own such as grocery shopping, cooking, washing/styling my hair, doing my own make-up (no need to glue fake lashes one by one), dropping off/picking up kids,..... and most important of all, my work-out routine. Therefore, I didn't notice I'd be more relaxed with the help from my parents. I enjoy my busy mom life in USA. Besides, we troubled my parents enough and it is time to let them restore their energy until next time. lol.  


However, I am glad that not only can I meet up my old friends in Taipei, also old pal from USA. Andrea, who lives in USA, and I have known each other for 7 years after my first son, Niel, was born. We had play dates a lot when kids are very young but the crazy schedule and different school districts made it hard to meet up. This time, thanks to her husband's business trip in Taipei, we finally had the chance to have a lunch together.

Thank you, 素貞, for watching my kids yesterday. They had a blast the whole afternoon. 


I had this mixed liquor drink, "Around the world" which infused with Rum, Vodka, Jim....and pineapple juice in Just-In Bistro Wine bar yesterday.  Surprisingly, me and hubby didn't get drunk at all. ^^

Thanks, Julia. I ll see what I can do.. I normally won't do heavy eye make ups but since girls on Taiwan nowadays tend to glue fake lashes on, so o thought I'd better blend in!! Lololololo......

Ah, thank you, Charlie. I thought Opening Ceremony had very good inspired/well-designed collection in general.

Make a Wish w/ Russia Babushka doll!!

My friend, Michelle asked me about my opinion of Chanel Babushka doll's necklace once and I said "Not worth getting it"!! Now I am not so sure if I would say the same thing to this adorable babushka doll clutch!! lol However, even I want to find it, this doll clutch is probably long gone by now!! I have a real Russia Babushka doll made in Russia which is a gift from 10 years ago! I couldn't find the same one in USA since this set of 15 nesting dolls are truly intricate!! This is the biggest one which has the most exquisite engraving. Total 15 of them! (2 are missing from the pic.) I heard that you can make a wish w/ these nesting dolls. If your wish comes true, you can open one until all 15 are all open!! I never made any wish w/ them, guess I was too realistic of a person myself. I don't know if each engraved temple/castle on the dolls represents something. You can't open the smallest one which is only the size of the little finger nail. I adore those golde
