Upon its completion in 1973, Jardine House was the first and tallest office building in Hong Kong until 1980. Having unique circular windows, Jardine is one of the city’s most cherished landmarks.
P.S. This is one of Jason’s favorite buildings in HK.
P.P.S. I wonder how many circular windows does Jardine have?

12/365 : The Magic Number, originally uploaded by Snap Happy Ria.
Well now, the number 365 seems to be popping up all over the place. I certainly did not expect to see it at the bottom of my coffee mug. It must be a sign. The 365 gods have spoken!

08/365 : Mooncake, originally uploaded by Snap Happy Ria.
This mooncake is all that is left of the ones given to me by my husband to celebrate the Mid-Autumn/Mooncake Festival. A white mooncake is quite unusual as they are often brown. But over the years, the pallet of the mooncake-eating public have become more sophisticated. Nowadays, instead of the usual red-egg-and-mung-bean filled mooncakes, they now have versions made of jello or Haagen Dazs ice cream. More expensive versions are filled caviar and black truffles… and ah yes, the wonderful white mooncake above that tastes of marzipan and some other paste I don’t know.

4/365 : Wisdom from a Catalogue, originally uploaded by Snap Happy Ria.
I was flipping through the pages of an Ikea catalogue when I found this quote. I’ve been in a very somber mood since last night and this quote somehow pushed me an iota into lightness.
As a fulltime homemaker in a foreign country, it sometimes gets a little lonesome. I’m not saying I’m unhappy, I’m just saying that life is like that sometimes. Don’t you agree?
