Stephen Jones hat contest

As last time I posted, I took my hat to a competition "Design for Stephen Jones".

Today my work has been commended,shortlisted by mr. Stephen Jones and Mrs Dolly Jones(British vogue.com) .

When I saw my name on their list, I almost cried by happyness and joy.

Thank you so much for Mr. and Mrs Jones for the commendation, and thank you for people support my work.

You can see more article at talenthouse.

Mr.Jones is my most favourite designer, I was really impressed by his exhibition in Tokyo at 10 corso commo in 2006 and I sometimes look at the poster to remind the exciting feeling at his exhibition. It was unusual hat world - ready to wear to houte couture, all are really fascinatingly beautiful.

So..Mr.Jones saw my hat and my name is on the shortlist,is one of my dreams came true!

Sunday lunch

We had a Sunday lunch at Peckinpah in Gastown.

The peckinpah is a cozy barbecue house.

Unique themed interiors.

Look at this shiny bun!

The bread tasted sweet and was perfect for the BBQ.

I had a chicken, they had separate sause in a bottle, I could put the sause as much as I want.

It was messy Sunday lunch, was taste good!

Aphid eater - Lady bug

I have a balcony garden.
Some of plants got aphids and I was worried about them, because they are bad for plants.I heard lady bug's lava eats them then I wished that lady bugs come on my balcony.
One day I found two ladybugs, then after a while, I found two lady bug's larvaes.
They ate a lot of aphids and now one of them metamorphoses.
Now the plants got aphids again, hope lady bugs bring more friends.
