The Winter Melon Tale is a new costume drama by TVB. I am also watching this now. It stars some of my favourite actors/actresses like Louisa So and Liu Kai Chi. Other actors/actresses are Ellesmere Choi, Sunny Chan and many more. I find this show quite entertaining.
One of my favourite stores is Banana Republic. I was just browsing their website earlier and couldn’t take my eyes off this Shiny Pleated Sweater Dress from their Spring collection. I love the shade of this dress (Moroccan Camel) and also the vertical stripes on it. This viscose sweater dress has a slimming effect and is great for both work and a night out. Guess I won’t need to take the best weight loss pills in town in order to look slim in this lovely number.

Tomorrow is the Winter Solstice Festival which is also known as the “Dongzhi Festival”. It is an important event in the Chinese calendar and some people regard it as the most important festival of all. Family gathering takes place on this day and consume “tang yuan” which are glutinous rice balls cook in sweet broth. They are also offered to friends and relatives as gifts. I know I will be eating lots of “tang yuen” tomorrow 😉 I hope I won’t go overboard though since I am still trying to maintain my weight. Otherwise, I will have to start looking for the best weight loss pill in the market. Happy Winter Solstice Festival to everyone.

I have this fear of spiders, whether big or small. They really give me the creeps. My skin would start crawling when I see them. Unfortunately, there are many spiders in my house. Just a few days ago, I saw one on the ceiling of my bedroom when I was lying down on my bed to sleep. I could not use the insecticide spray because it was too high up. For the whole night, I was restless because I was afraid that the spider would crawl down onto my bed 🙁 In times like this, I wish I have the spider catcher. I saw this really cool gadget from REMOGeneralStored.com today. It is the best thing for people like me. The spider catcher uses two sets of bristles to gently catch the creepy crawlies. It traps them until we can decide where we would like to release them. What a friendly way to capture spiders or insects without harming them. The catcher has flexible bristles and long reach, hence it can go to high corners and awkward spots to capture them.
