			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It has been sometime after I deliver my 2nd baby that me and my husband has not went out for some special dinner as both of us are always busy with our own work. Today is 15th day of Lunar New Year and it is also Chinese Valentine Day and we have travel all the way to Georgetown area to see is there any nice restaurant or nice food we can try off. Guess what, we ended up going into Gurney Plaza and ended up go into Sushi King as that is my favorite Japanese Restaurant.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-81" title="sushiking" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/sushiking.jpg" alt="sushiking" width="257" height="222" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Somehow we tried different thing compare to what we normally eat in Sushi King. We have ordered few side dishes instead of ordering for set meal like we always do. Food that we have ordered for today are as listed below together with pictures taken from Sushi King website. They do not allow download of their website images, I use a very old fashioned way which is print screen to get all those pictures.</p>
<p> </p>
<div id="attachment_84" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 244px"><img class="size-full wp-image-84" title="sake-roll" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/sake-roll.jpg" alt="sake-roll" width="234" height="153" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Sake Roll</p></div>
<div id="attachment_86" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 244px"><img class="size-full wp-image-86" title="smoked-salmon" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/smoked-salmon.jpg" alt="smoked-salmon" width="234" height="153" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Smoked Salmon</p></div>
<div id="attachment_87" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 244px"><img class="size-full wp-image-87" title="unagi" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/unagi.jpg" alt="unagi" width="234" height="153" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Unagi</p></div>

<div id="attachment_88" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 228px"><img class="size-full wp-image-88" title="wasabiko-roll" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/wasabiko-roll.jpg" alt="wasabiko-roll" width="218" height="154" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Wasabiko Roll</p></div>

<div id="attachment_90" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 245px"><img class="size-full wp-image-90" title="okonomiyaki" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/okonomiyaki.jpg" alt="okonomiyaki" width="235" height="154" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Okonomiyaki</p></div>

<p> </p>
<p>After the meal, we just spend some time walk around Gurney Plaza and we found there are so many changes here in Gurney Plaza after the opening of Gurney Plaza New Wing. Gurney Plaza is now giving me an ipression that all the shops are selling very expensive thing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There are a lot of road block around town area as there are Thaipusam celebration. It takes us around 1.5 hours to reach home from Georgetown. Scary.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This year Western Calendar Valentine Day 14-Feb-09 falls on weekend (Saturday) and we will be going back hometown to celebrate it with 2 of our kids. How are we going to celebrate our Valentine Day with our kid? No idea yet. haha.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hereby wish everyone Happy Chinese Valentine Day and Happy Chap Goh Meh.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A money tree plant is a special type of bonsai tree. The design originated in Taiwan in the 1980s, and was quickly picked up by many other Asian nations. Areas with large Asian populations frequently have money tree plants for sale, because money tree plants are believed to bring good luck and fortune. The money tree plant is particularly associated with China, and is often given out at Chinese New Year complete with red banners and other lucky decorations.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What come up into your mind when people discuss about money tree?</p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-67" title="money-tree-31" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/money-tree-31.jpg" alt="money-tree-31" width="111" height="107" /></p>

<p> <br />
 Let me show you how a real money tree looks like. See picture below:</p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68" title="money-tree-1" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/money-tree-1.jpg" alt="money-tree-1" width="230" height="252" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nice plant ya.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I saw one picture in TheStar which a type of money tree as well.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69" title="money-tree-a" src="http://blog.popoyan.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/money-tree-a.jpg" alt="money-tree-a" width="413" height="374" /></p>
