Origami crafts for sale, anyone?

Thanks to Pastor and mum, I got their edits by this morning so combined their edits and read through again. Both felt that my conclusion isn't that strong enough..so I shall work on it again before sending it to my sup.
Videocalled with my niece and yi today...this girl..becoming quite naughty..throw tantrums...and super TV/HP video addict!! Really like glued on to the hp when my parents, bro n sis-in-law let her watch some videos. And the way she jumps so cute lah!! Learning to jump by just tip-toeing and moving her butt..hahaa! But not bad, she recognised us..and I heard her calling me gu1gu3..haha. Not sure what's with her ang moh accent when she speaks mandarin..also calls my mum nai4 nai1 instead of nai3 nai1.

Went to church to help out. I was surprised that Judy went too! So helped with setting up the dining room cos M will be selling bacon sandwiches, toasts, drinks on Sat and people can sit there. After everything was done, sat and chatted with Ch and M..Judy left earlier. All of them were complaining abt the weather and asked me for tips how to survive the heat back home. HAHAA! I told them I'm not sure how I'll survive when I get back but most places are air conditioned back home..so don't quite feel the heat..even if no air con, we will have powerful fans around! Anyway, then I flipped through some knitting magazines since Ch was sorting them out..and then I asked Ch if a sheep keyring I saw was knitting..and she said yes then M very smart..say I flip to see what designs there are and request for Ch and her to make. Then I said YES! And they are easy to carry back and useful (unlike woollen clothes that I can't wear back home!). Hahaha..anyway Ch brought more of her knitted mice today and she's gg to do more to make up 25. I was telling her my family liked the mice when I showed them the pics too!! Then she got all excited..haha..they also think the mice will be the fastest to be sold out. Moreover for £4, I think it's worth it for the workmanship! Considering you can only get a meal deal (ie sandwich, a small pack of chips and a drink) for that price here. And £4 can't even get you a full meal in McD or KFC or BK! How I wish I can ship them all back but no where to display at home unless I ask dad for some space in the display cabinet..hahaa! But no la..it'll be too costly to buy all of them!

Came home and thought of how to present my origami crafts and I thought of doing it like this! It'll have the words "Origami Crafts" and "100% handmade" on the cardboard (will borrow marker from them on Sat) and I guess I can charge £1 for the bigger ones and 2 for £1 for the smaller ones. Anyway today Ch and M told me the money will go to the church from a few of our stalls (cos other stalls are outside vendors who paid for their stall and they will keep what they get from their sales)..and is to pay for fire extinguishers..hahaa! V funny when they said it.


Was clueless what to cook for dinner tonight from this morning..and when I came home, just decided to thaw the pork ribs and cook some pasta with it..and make like a pasta bake. But I didn't have cheese to sprinkle on top so I just used cheese sauce (didn't even add milk cos I didn't buy). Turns out not too bad and the ribs are more tender when baked..haha..kept half portion for tmr's dinner.


These days when I go to the supermarket, I don't know what to cook so can't plan what to buy except the usual stuff..so if I wanna do something different in the week then won't have lor. Anyway the next time I go ASDA, I'll prob get their olive ciabatta..the other day wanted to get pita bread at Aldi but they are sold in 6 or 8! Can't be I eat them for a week rite?? Haha..of course I can freeze them up but my freezer space also limited..haha! Been thinking of making wraps cos of the hot weather but then it means I'll have to buy lettuce or peppers. I also don't know if I should head out tmr or thur or fri! Oh, Sat got to wake up earlier cos we'll meet at 9am! Excited!
