Absolutely fabulous

My second sis treated me to brunch at Kennyhill bakery and its was absolutely,fabulously delicious and im over the moon devouring the soft shell crab pasta with chilli crab meat,torch ginger shreds and basil leaf.its a winning fusion formula.the spaghetti was al dente.the piquant sauce fragrant n aromatic and the deep fried soft shell crab was perfectly crisp.i had a peach strudel as dessert n a glass of orange yuzu juice.sis had salted roast beef toast with gooey cheese and a side salad but i found it too salty for my taste. the place was crowded for lunch and might be hard to find a seat if we didnt arrive an hour before noon.ate pastries until it was time for lunch.

Holiday for thaipusam

spent time cleaning and cooking.i cooked paella for lunch using basmati herbal rice,tumeric ,squid ring,crabstick,smoked duck,sausage and button mushrooms.really tired of eating Chinese food.My cousin in law generously treated the cousins n children to a delicious dinner at Cantons kitchen where i overate the steam silvercatfish,fried butter prawns n braised mini abalone.So good to catch up with relatives as we are so busy usually.the Chan and Cheah and Wong clan love good food. today i will cook spaghetti bolognaise with chicken popcorn and mixed vege.tomorrow my second sis is giving me a treat at European bakery in Taman Tun.i love European bread n pastry. i did light stretching so i could eat more tomorrow.i used plastic place mat i got from Daiso for bedroom wall deco.i used a flower planter tripod and an acaccia chopping board as a side table.today i bought a cheap table lamp at less than rm30 and three plastic moon stone lantern at rm 9 each.it gives a peaceful vibe to my exercise cum meditation room.the soft glow has a calming effect.i dislike glare of white florescent light.while shopping for the lamps i bumped into my excolleague who just retired.She said she enjoys leisurely time to do things she likes as life is short.

Detective Chinatown 1900

i watched a China psychothriller with Jun last nite.i give it a 4/5 as the acting of the white actors were subpar except for John Cusack.I felt that they should hire real Red Indians to cast as native Americans.Using Wang Bao Qiang and the tribe who were ethnic Uigher to act as Red Indians in dark body paint is disrespecting native Americans like how white actors paint faces black to portray blackface is insulting black Americans.Come on it cant be hard to go to Red Indian reservations to look for real Cherokee or Apaches. Otherwise i like the plot of racism and anti Asian hate and how migrants who contributed to the economic development in the US are mistreated as yellow peril and chinks or Fu Man Chu.its like how in Australia in the past discriminated the Chinese migrants and the native Aborigine.the white supremacists look at different coloured people as scumbags and potential criminals .I feel the movie has interesting historical underpinnings and sends a message that the sun rises in the East.What goes around comes around.

Should robots dance?

Im totally opposed to the ideas of humanoid robots taking part in dances for a celebration as grand as Spring festival.They may mimic the movements but lack facial expression.As in Indian dances,the eyes and lips convey emotions and a robot is a machine unable to feel joy,sorrow or rapture.Its an insult to use them for entertaining us as it dehumanizes the meaning of dance.Art needs spontaneity and subjective interpretation.For centuries we use dance and music as a form of self expression of the joie de vivre of being alive.Does a robot have a sense of self and identity?Dont showcase technology for replacing dance movements,use it to save lives in disasters or help us in daily lives like exoskeletons but dont use it for artistic and creative avenues.Imagine an apsara that is non human,its a demeaning side of technology. today we had lou sang or toss the rainbow salad for our zumba group.we also practised the fan dances and umbrella dances.it was so much fun .so keep robots out of sports and dancing or playing music.its the domain of humans.
