Taste Buds Beware!

15 Oct

#Confession – Most of my phone gallery are pictures of random Chinese things I need to translate to save myself. E.g. to know the difference between microspicy and ‘it’s too spicy’ πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Ba Ba Black Sheep🎡

Do you remember that old song from when you were a kid?: This sheep looks like the kind of sheep who would sing that song πŸ˜› **He is one of the stone statues at a mansion in Gongyi, Henan, China. Some of the statues are centuries old!

Ba Ba Black Sheep,
Have You Any Wool?
Yes Sir, Yes Sir
Three Bags Full 🎡
One for my Master

The Friendly – Pervy #Metro (all in perspective)

4 Apr

😜😝 SUPER friendly train (or creepy – depends on how you view it).

I don’t think people would like it if I pet them, but maybe it’s a new social strategy – whatcha think???

#Baking in China – Apple Pie!

14 Jan

​Viola! I make a mean #ApplePie if I say so myself. Little more difficult to do in #China; but still. . . . came out delicious!   People at work appreciate it 😜

#Halloween #HauntedHouse

28 Oct

Totally awesome haunted house tonight.  So proud of my juniors!  All by themselves, they planned and put the party on. The 3rd and fourth floors had been transformed.  Piles of leaves all through the halls and rooms, scattered chair overturned for the ‘abandoned effect’!  The classrooms were amazing – evil butcher room with the creepy guy chopping bloody stuff; creepy dead bride in her red wedding dress, ghosts everywhere including up in the window ledges – they’d jump from the ceiling to scare people. πŸ˜±πŸ‘» People hiding under tables or in fabric screens would grab your feet πŸ˜‚  I loved it!  Such a great job!
