Rise & Shine..
Good morning.. Yes, I've been up the entire night.. Great, right? Oh, seems today is Dumpling Festival. Care to share your dumplings? Hehe.. Does anyone know the origins of this festival? They look like pyramids to me. Wonder if there's any connection.. Hmmm.. Hohoho..Blogspot's been giving problems the entire night.. "Refuse" to publish postings!!! Woeful!
Both my feet are now swollen from all the walking this week :(
Wonder if a foot reflexology session would help?!!
