Life with the Two Crazy Dogs

The boys scared the crap outta me yesterday afternoon.  They saw the mailman parked his truck across the street.  I was making coffee for the next day and I literary jumped when they barked at the mailman.  When I turned around, I saw the hair on their backs all standing up and so was their tails, growling.  Walked over to the front door and the mailman rang the door bell.  I saw this big parcel and saw Singapore Post.  Right away I knew I got food from my sister!!!  Yehhhhhh!!!!  Ain’t she nice??  She is just swell!!

Opened up the parcel and read her note first.  She wants to thank me for getting her clothes from Victoria’s Secret.  In return, she sent me “fertilizers”.  She thinks I’m too skinny!! :)  Dielah, gotta buy more new clothes
Here are the items in the parcel:

-  Instant noodles.  She knows how much I love instant noodles.  Lazy man’s cooking.

-  A St Michael’s shirt for DB which he loves it.  Great color.  He said “Yes! Thank you very much….”

-  The Asian style potato chips.  Opened it right away.

-  2 boxes of organic cookies from St Michael’s.  Didn’t try that yet.  I was too busy with the others.  DB took them to work this morning.  He said they were very good.

-   A bottle of chilie shrimp paste.  Can’t wait to stink up the house!

-  Couple packets of instant spices.  Another lazy man’s way of cooking.

-  A bag of plums, the chinese kind.  Always brings back a lot of memories of the old chinese medical halls in Ipoh. 

-   A big bag of chillied tapioca chips.  DB’s favorite.  He said don’t even open it if not they will be gone.

-  A big bag of stinky smelly chewy sotong (cuttle fish or squid as the Americans call it).  So good.  DB told me not to go near him when I  eat them things.

-  Another big bag of the stinky cuttle fish.  This type has sugar on them.  Oh, man, I missed eating them.  I chomped them down but, of course, not the whole bag.  Gotta leave some for some other day.

-  Last and the best of all is this chewy, stinky, smelly cuttle fish.  I remember buying them in satay sticks.  This bag is just full of this sticky thing without the fuss of the satay sticks.   I ate this the most.  Almost half the content were gone. 

Of course my dinner was really light.  I was actually full when it came to dinner.  DB asked if I want some ice-cream for dessert, I had to say no to him.  I was already stuffed.

The boys had some share, too, but not the sugary ones.  Dogs are dogs, they eat anything, but I still refuse to give them anything with sugar. 

They sniffed out the entire parcel before I could even opened it.  Then they laid on each side of the parcel.  Once it was opened, they both got up and had to sniffed out each item.  I had to push them out of the way but I thought why not test them if they will try mawing them bags.  I let them sniffed and they used their snouts to move the packets around.  It took about a good 3-4 minutes waiting for them to snoop.  My patience was like about to burst!  They didn’t grab any of the bags.  All they did was snooped.  Good job.  I opened up the first bag - Malaysian style potato chips……..mhmmmmmm, yummy.  All the memories of back home.
