Praise the gambling gods….thank you for this blessing!! I don’t know where to start my plans about using up all this money!!! Might as well list down what I can do. ;)

1. Get rid of our home mortgage and credit debt!!

2. Pack up and move back to Kulim! Buy that double piece of land in nearby my Mum and build a medium size house with a large pool so that Ted can be ‘maharaja taman’. We’ll most likely have the ONLY pool in that area anyway.

3. Donate approximately $60 million to charity and $1 million goes to my church for upkeep and renovations.

4. Plan a trip around the world for mum, sis and the 4 of us. Needless to say we will travel 1st class all the way.

5. Get my animal sanctuary up and running - it has been a lifelong dream for me.

6. And based on the balance after all that spending, give a few mils to mum and to sis. The rest goes into the bank and we just live on the interest. :)

Awesome right??? But first I need to win it la. ;) I’m sure many in Malaysia may not know this but upcoming OzLotto which will be drawn on Tuesday [30/6] has come up to a massive $90 million which is the BIGGEST and HIGHEST amount a lotto has ever drawn up on record.

Hence you gotta be in it to win it right? Will let you know when I win it on Wednesday so that all these dreams can come true but for now, I’ll continue my dreams…. :D What would you do with $90M?

The funny thing is that when you do win such a huge prize, I think one would be lost at how to even begin spending it. I have to add that the lottery prize wins here are tax-free. Cool eh? ;) If I won such a huge prize money, I’d so want to remain anonymous because of several reasons but the main one being that you will be the target of every robber nation-wide! And quoting someone who commented at the news site, ‘If I won $90M, I’d have relatives I never knew about knocking at my door!’. *lol* I thought that was funny….anyways, we’ll see come Tuesday people! :D

*lol* I’m sure there are many pronunciation for this ranging from cucur kodok to jemput-jemput [Southern slang] to my very own, chokodok [Northern slang]. :) In the end, they all mean the same thing = mashed banana fritters, or at least I think that is what it is once translated.

If I’ve not mentioned it before, Arianna loves bananas. She calls them ‘nanna’ which funnily enough also sounds very much like Nana, my mum. Anyway, this was the first time she had them and when mum makes anything, needless to say, it was a hit…I’ll let these pix speak for themselves. :D

KR is about 1.5months now and it was only recently that I finally managed to take a pix of Arianna and her together. Ever since KR came home, Arianna has been rather oblivious to KR’s existence but recently, she has taken more notice of her and that is good. :)

I had to use this moment ie. Arianna busy having her bottle AND watching tv to get these shots and I tell ya, they are priceless!! :)

Watching telly together
Sisters watching tv together-gether

Head massage
Arianna is either giving KR a head massage OR trying to say, ‘Eh, move your head la, you’re blocking the tv!!’. :P

Sisters 2
Sweetness!! :D

*This is not really new news but I had to share it anyway. :P*

I actually nearly did. *lol*

You see, I wanted to cook some oyster/garlic sauce to pour over my vegs. So I fried the garlic then added the oyster sauce but somehow, the consistency seem a little to thick for my liking and also it looked nothing like my Mum’s. But with the littlies awake and all, I put it aside for later modification. *Pls note that my mum wasn’t around during the drama*

After Arianna went to bed and KR was napping, it was time for my lunch so I heated the saucepan and poured the sauce in. Common sense *duh* told me that water dilutes things but somehow stupidity took over for a moment and I didn’t think that although water dilutes things, it doesn’t work well with HOT oil and when I poured some water it, my whole started to sizzle really big time and I wanted to stop it from messing up my kitchen so I lifted the pan to move it away.

But while doing so, it tilted a little and the splashing oil kinda caught fire and voila! I had a Master Chef moment/flame going on!!! Thank god it went out on it own and that it was the small saucepan instead of the big or I would have no hair or eyebrows now. And before I knew it, the fire alarm went off and there I was trying to figure out how the heck to turn if off quickly before it wakes up the girls but nup, the girls slept right through. Phew!!

So there you go….at least I now know that my fire alarm works!

Well, actually if I wanted to start a business, I think I’d go into the business of wholesale clothing. I’d choose this type of business simply because there will always be a demand for clothes. Not all of us are blessed with the gift of sewing and even if we did, sometimes you just want to own something that you didn’t sew. Since I’m not fashion’s #1 fan, I’d glad that I got my sister to give me tips on fashion coz Lord knows I can’t match colors to save my life!
