Amber's attempt with my Powershot A550

This is Amber, taking a snapshot of her pink Croc shoes. She loves gadgets, papa's phone, mama's make up tools, mama's handbags, etc. One day, when I upgrade my camera, I'll pass her the Powershot A550 to toy with. At the moment, it's mine , too handy to upgrade and too lazy to learn more on better photography.

Our new kitchen-in-progress



This is our new kitchen in the making. Like the color ? Not exactly conventional and hubs chose it. I left the coloring schemes to him. The kitchen equipments were my choice and I am very excited over the new Bosch oven. There was some problem with the aluminium shutter though. I told Alice, my contractor, I wanted to place a toaster oven inside and she made sure there was electrical supply, in fact there was to power outlets inside... but.. but... but... it's too narrow to fit in the toaster oven. Dang !!!!!
I gave her 2 options, to change (uninstall, remove, cut, spray paint and install again) or FIND ME A NEW SMALLER TOASTER OVEN TO FIT IN !!!!!!! And so, the hunt it on for mini and narrow toaster ovens.
A word of advise to all of you fixing up your homes, be very very specific on what you want, go to the measurements in detail, the cm, mm and H x W x D.
We have chosen a black galaxy granite top for the kitchen. It's a starking contrast to the kitchen cabinets...

Today is hubby's birthday. Yesterday was Amber's. Amber is now a boisterous 2 year old.
We had a little birthday celebration for her at Mdm Kwan's MVC with my inlaws. FIL got her a Tweety Bird cheesecake. I'll be gettin hubs a Dark Chocolate cake tonight. He wanted to test some newly arrived wine with his friends at home and I'll make a simple dinner with good cheese and wine, I think hubs will be pretty happy
