Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
I am yours

Spent the last two days at one of my auntie’s place to make dumplings. Dumpling-making isn’t a simple affair at all. All the leaves have to be washed individually. The ingredients need to be cut and cooked. The wrapping and tying of the wrapped glutinous rice and fillings take time too. After they are steamed, they have to be hung to cool down. Alright, I am not going into the details. But everything is worth it because we have delicious rice dumplings to eat, and they are less costly than those sold outside. The main chef is my fourth aunt, Tina. Aunt Ruby and I chipped in some money too for the purchase of all the stuff. And did I mention that it was an excellent bonding time? I haven't talked so much with Aunt Tina for donkey years! Memories of the past similar events came flooding back instantaneously. Am missing Aunt Monica already!
Females at work and having fun at the same time.
We were busy posing for pictures too? This little princess kept wanting to use my camera.
Tah dah! Dumplings galore, made in love and with hard work.
Bought a piece of peppermint cake during breakfast - beautiful! Dumplings for lunch today!
Made 爱心 breakfast for dad on Wednesday and bro on Thursday - egg mayo and crab stick mayo with croissants. I believe I cooked the hard-boiled eggs to perfection because there were no grey rims around the yolks. See how much daddy enjoyed his 早餐! I woke up early just to prepare his booster leh. Haha.
