Everyone smiles in the same language : Author unknown

Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day. ~Quoted in P.S. I Love You, compiled by H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

Hi Hi! I've been tagged by my new furrenz Jeannie & Jewel to show my widest grin. I'm normally a very shy shy dog :) I don't like to have my piktures taken. But here are some of my widest grins....



Here's one taken at Dogaholics...can anyone guess who is the pretty girl behind me?



And here's another one taken at one of the beaches in Singapore...can't remember if it's east coast or tanjong beach but I had a whale of a time there. I had fun trying to catch and bite the waves and swam some too!



And now it's time to tag Snowball, Ume, Oscar the Airedale, Precious and Asta Up Over. Come show the world your pearlie whites. And I now leave you with another quote...

Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. ~Mother Teresa

The Me Me Game

Well...it's about time I did my MeMe. I've read so many MeMes and learned so much more about my furrenz out there. Plus it's started by a good furren...PENNY I have to support her by pawticipating. So here it goes...

Hiya all

Guess what are these?



Here's another look..



Can you guess? They are cookies. Super delicious home-made cookies. Made by Jie Jie Ann...Snowball's Jie Jie. It's even made in the shape of Maltese. It's flavour is Apple and Cinnamon. It was given to me sometime back and I already finished them. Wanted to post about them earlier but mom was too busy so didn't get a chance to do it.

Truth be told...Mommy was so inspired by these cookies, she has even gone on to make liver flavoured ones. She meet up with Jie Jie Ann and made liver flavour ones. These were super delicious too. Now Mommy is looking out for a bone-shaped cookie cutter and she's gonna make somemore cookies. I'm gonna turn into a Cookie Monster! Hiak..hiak...hiak...

The Birth of Ham Ham Jr...the Bootiful Butterfly

Hiya all!

Let's take another look at Ham Ham Jr
.
It's almost time...look at how translucent he's become...

And the next morning...
More translucent than ever. Mummy decided to bring Ham Ham Jr to work. She felt that it's almost time and she wanted to capture the moment...

Mummy takes over from here :

While on the MRT train (subway) I kept a close eye on Ham Ham Jr. But nothing happen. So I decided to take a nap. Woke up as we entered the tunnel and I saw Ham Ham was bursting forth from the cocoon. Tried to take a video but lighting was bad in the tunnel and I cldnt get the camera to focus....Arghh!!! And of all things. The card read FULL!!! Sorry guys...no picture of the actual "birth"

Waiting until reach the interchange and switch the card. Now for more pix...
First pix

Look at the crumpled wings....

Walking toward park near my office...

Arrived at the park. Ham Ham Jr waiting for its release

First release...

Opening wings...

Flight checking...

Full back view

It took quite a long time to dry it's wings. Check out this video. Sorry for the shaking. I was nervous yet awestruck by the beauty.

And for the final released...

Good-bye Ham Ham Jr. May you have a beautiful week ahead!

Back to Chilli:

Isnt he/she a beauty. Did you see the color of the wings?? So wonderful!! I was sad cuz I didnt get to say goodbye yet happy that mummy took so many pix of Ham Ham Jr so that I can have many bootiful memories of him/her :)

Double Happiness

Today's happenings can be summarize as

No...no...I'm not getting married. (FYI : This Chinese word is usually used during weddings)

It's because I was given soooooo much treats. First grandma feed me apples...my favourite not once but TWICE!!! Once in the morning and one more time in the evening.

And then mummy gave me ice-cream!! Two kinds!!! One was Frosty Paw (Recipe courtesy of The Dogs of Jackman Ave)

FROSTY PAWS!!!

ATTACK OF THE FROSTY PAWS!!

MESSY EATER


Jie Jie Ann and Mummy had ice-cream for themselves too but look at what a greedy girl i was...

Please Sir...can I have more??

And...guess what? Mummy gave in to me...

But as I was biting the ice-cream instead of licking it mummy had to put the ice-cream far far away from me. So now I had no choice but to stick my tongue out to to lick instead :)


Then when it came to the cone

What a mess!!

Say goodbye to the last bit...

It was the best tasting ice-cream I had. What more it was made of soy milk and it's low in sugar and fat.

Even Snowball enjoyed this ice-cream


Now this is what I call a terrierific day!! I hope I'll get more of these kinda days. Don't you?

Lost & Found

A few mornings back I work up and discovered this...
and this



Ham Ham Jr as my pet is known as went missing again! He got cater-napped!! Mommy immediately call my Aunty Jen and found out she was the "culprit" :)

She took Ham Ham Jr for Show & Tell. She was doing a presentation for a group of Secondary (Junior High) students and she wanted to use Ham Ham Jr to bring out a point. And he was a hit. I'm so proud of him. Just a few days old and already a hit. Hee...Hee...

He's now back home safely. He's got a new home. The container is now transparent so it's easier for me to take a pix of him. He's still a cacoon.



Shhh...Ham Ham Jr needs his sleep...


Come back soon for more updates

Amazing wolves!!

I was checking out DWB and I came across the blog by Raisa the Husky! She shared an amazing video with wolves in it. The picture of the wolf looks exactly like the picture on my pack of kibbles. They are such magnificent animals. So I wanna share the video with you too!



What you think...cool eh

Hey Raisa! I've tummy-tagged you too! Come join in the fun

Prizes...from a long time back

Remember the time when I say I'll post the pix of my prize...I didn't forget...mummy did..hee...hee... The event is linked here : http://chillithedog.blogspot.com/2005/12/hi-hi.html

So here it is...and the third prize goes to...Chilli (Mom: Chilli the Silly Billy...hiak hiak) I won a big hamper for just doing what I like to do...catching balls!

Look! It's even bigger than me :) In it were some toys, snacks and a big bag of kibbles.

Mummy says the kibbles she will give away to the pound...it's good kibbles juz that it's not the brand I alwiz eat. That way I can do my part for charity too :). The best part I like about the prize is the soft toy! See the penguin in the front of the hamper :) It makes all kinda of funny noise when shaken and I go crazy just playing with it.

Gotta go...muz brush up on my ball catching skills :0)

Tummy tag

Haha...I've been tagged by Snowball. So it's tummy time! A tummy up taken sometime back...


I look super "dead" in this pix. This is bcuz I had a super long off-leash session at the park and I got to play with my favourite rubber ball for the longest time.

But Snowball...I dunno who can I tag leh...I dont have much friends yet cuz I "went away" for long. Can introduce some of your friends to me...esp Boo (wink...wink...)

Additional comments:)

I've now tagged Snap, Cheater & Norman. Hey guys...hope to see you tummy really really soon!

Mistaken for a pig!?!?!

Once when granddad was walking me...a man came up from behind him and remarked "Is this a pig or a dog?"

I'm like "WHAT!!!! I'm no pig!!!" How dare he call me a pig...which part of me looks like one? So angry!!! That man must have never seen a pig in his entire life!

When granddad got home...he told mommy this and mommy juz laughed it off. So hurting! But mommy quickly apologize and agreed with me that no part and I repeat no part of me looks like one!

Haiyoh...humans! what will they think of next

Ah...Finally I'm Back
