{long update} where the hell have you been?

ahhh...finally get the chance to come on here after my previous post from last year!

It's a long update but will promise to keep it simple.

1> Hello! Hope you had a fantastic Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Made this for Christmas dinner

Mr Minzy and I had a cooking challenge recent Christmas..we cook a dish ourself. Most of our family are not living in the same state. That gave us a reason don't have to spend too much time in the kitchen. Given am from a background where I get those amazing food like Nasi Lemak, Roti Canai, Yum Cha, Curry Laksa, Popiah..this is an effort from me.

It actually taste better than it looks.. ;)

I baked this sour cream cheesecake..yum

2> So the December Challenge was unsuccessful..was stucked on Day 12 and was busy (still do) watching over how Peanut growing up. She will turn 8 m/o this coming 19th. How time flies!! To those who know me well will knew that am a low key person who would prefer to keep personal life away from my business. Well, I happened to be the sort of person who don't feel comfortable showcasing my family picture or mentioning their names on blog (that's consider public, yes?). I like to know I am protecting them as you will never know what other people will do and use it to against you in the future.

Peanut's attempt to being creative..like the mum

3> You can imagine my ME TIME has been diminishing as Peanut grows older everyday. She basically started crawling and chewing everything she could in the house. I even saw her trying to self-support standing..of course ended with crying (poor girl not strong enough yet). Mr Minzy and I were discussing how a determine girl she is even when she is so young! I can keep on going with my Peanut talk and it might bored the hell of you. So I won't! ;)

It's so hard to hop online to just spend a minute here. I sometime felt that as if a jinx to even touch the keyboard cuz Peanut will cry..she wants mummy. Aww, sweetie. Looking at so many business posting what they are doing on FB can make you feel depressed (to the point considering shutting down the whole thing) especially when you are having ZERO creativity. Seriously.

Sometime it's good to walk away get some fresh air..have a bit of thinking what need to be done and all. I thought I should be concentrating creating and not spending so much time on updating the FB's page. I think I will spend some of my ME TIME on blogging from now on. Being an artist/illustrator like me, inward thinking cap helps the creative juices flows..and the inner soul. And when that happen..inspiration sparks and voila!

Love receiving useful parcel! :)

4> Remember one of my earlier post was saying I like all things wall plaque?

 5> I started Year 2011 with a bang. Seriously. Happiness & New Hopes and wishes. I knew this year is going to be a very different year for Missy Minzy and my personal life. Of course I hope for more opportunities and supports from everyone! 

aha! spend some ME TIME doing some of this of late!

Having said that, I will be going away for a long holidays end of the month. Both of my online stores will be closed while am away. So do pop by my online store if you want to purchase anything, especially my early work. Just leave a message on the comment box stating "where the hell have you been? and you will have 15% off from your purchase order. I believe my style and ideas on how I want to run this business will be very different once am back from the holidays.
