Chopsticks for Kids?!

OK - I admit I am new to the kids' market...but guess how much this pair of chopsticks for kids just cost me?



I hope they are worthy like ivory and would really work magic.

"Chinese make easy?!" We'll see to that.

The Greek Prison Break Take 2


While I was watching Prison Break season 4 on tele, I saw breaking news from BBC that a massive manhunt is under way in Greece after a duo escaped from a top security prison by a helicopter - for the second time in three years.

Wow - Prison Break live in real action - honestly better than the drama I am watching!

Filet-O-Fish


The fish sandwich has always been my favorite McDonald food, second to fries. Not many noticed, but it has only got half a slice of cheddar cheese in it - and been for the case for as long as I could recall.

An interesting incidence happened during my patronage today and it evolved around an argument about the size of the cheese served in the sandwich.

A customer furiously rushed to the counter holding a filet-o-fish, demanding another one made for him. Then shortly after he was given the second sandwich, he once again, returned it to the counter and complained it only had half a slice of cheese in it. The manager explained to the man that it has always been the case but the man insisted otherwise.

To settle the dispute, the manager offered to make the customer a new one and apparently, the new one must have contained a whole piece of cheese in it as I heard no more complaint thereafter.

2 filet-o-fish sandwiches got thrown into the bin because of a selfish jerk who could not tell right from wrong. The man got what he wanted this time and there is no reasons why he would not ask for the same treatment next time.

I understand why life is so unfair, it is due to the fact that a minority few cannot uphold integrity.

The Forgotten Chewy Raisin Bars


When I was a kid, I used to eat a flat, raisin, baked snack that was about a foot long, about 3 inches wide, and maybe a 1/4 inch thick.

The snack (as seen here) wasn't actually a "cookie", more like a chewy raisin cracker that had been pressed very flat and baked.



I have been longing to have this forgotten raisin bar and not managed to find it anywhere in recent years, whereas it was fairly available in supermarkets about 10 years ago.

Anyone with me on this? No?



The other day, I finally found a close substitute from Bourbon Japan...close enough for me.
