Donovan has his reserves about this 'jelly' looking dessert as he could see the white parts, thinking they were seeds or something inedible. Actually those were the crushed water chestnut bits. He looked on while we enjoyed the pudding and he replied saying he could hear the 'crunchy crunchy' sound when we bite into it. It was then he decided to try some...

Mummy, the police is coming to catch you. (Please buckle)

Daddy and Mummy had always been nagging at Donovan who simply refuses to buckle up in the car. We would then make use of the thousand-yr-old threat that the police is on the hunt for children who didn't buckle up. Yesterday, after a heavy dinner, Mummy felt that her seat belt was unbearably tight against her bulge and therefore unbuckled the seat belt for some relief. Donovan, who was at the back car seat, spotted that and warned Mummy, "Mummy, the police is coming to catch you. You must bucklllleeee......" Upon hearing that, Grandma, Daddy and Jerrimie broke into fits of laughter.
