Cangkul

Here's a story of Togo and Togo Daddy.

It was a rare day that Togo Daddy is left alone with the tyrants. I came back from a looooong day to find an visibly upset Togo Daddy.

Togo Daddy : I'm sorry! I'm so sorry.
Me : Why? Why what happened?
Togo Daddy : Sorry!
Me : Why why why?
Togo Daddy: Sorrrrrry. I cangkuled* Togo's face...
Me : WHATT??!!

At which point the handsome tyrant peeped out, all grey and white with a red slash on his face.

It goes that Togo Daddy was holding the cangkul and the klutzy tyrant ran straight into it. Luckily the klutz had his head turned a bit, otherwise the cut might have been on his eye (gasp!)

Thankfully it was just a small cut, but there's just something freakishly funny about a cangkul cut tale. Togo Daddy was a lot more upset than Togo was over the whole (bloody) incident. Ha-woo!

Here's Togo a few days later, with the cut dried to a scab.



He's allright, still as handsome as ever.

* Cangkul = Hoe

Shark Attack

THAT ?? !!

That is a wonderful poster courtesy of wonderful friends, on my wonderful birthday as a wonderful(!) prank.

Haha. I wonder if my neighbors think we're in trouble with loan sharks. After all, we've had a BMW towed away from our house before, but that's another story.

Happy Birthday Me!
Thanks Ai Lee, Desmond, Eric, Hui Mei, Joan, Kenny, Kian Yang, Kian Wai, May, V Siang, Wee Peng, Yee Leen, Yew Siong & Yong Sein.

Dig

Found in our unkempt garden :

Looks like some creature knocked down a pot doing zoomies,
and then decided to dig to Venuzela.


What a huge hole! Look at my tiny foot in comparison.


The culprit trying to sneak away.


The culprit, caught by Togo.
And getting an earful for ruining his mommy's unkempt yard.

Clothes

Last weekend I went along for shopping trip to Klang*. It was an engagement prep shopping, and as the engagee's picked through gorgeous embroidered sarees and bangles and kurtas, I was drawn to the beautiful little mini clothes in the children section.

If you're thinking 'Oh, no' .. well, oh, yes.

My handsome son, wearing a Kurta.


Another shot of handsome Togo.


My pretty daughter in a mid-rift baring Paavadai.


Tagar couldn't fit in the other sleeve.
I thought her smaller than she really is.

Buying the pretty outfits were a riot. Anyone who've been to Klang for shopping can vouch for how scary it is to have the sales people bearing down on you**. It is even scarier when you don't look like them and don't speak Tamil well. Fortunately I had Ms. Engagee as a partner as we went to look for really cheap clothes for the tyrants. (Me thinks those RM100+ shiny creations should be left for hoomans kids to wear, no?)

So we crept into the least intimidating looking shop with the least pushy sales person and headed upstairs where the children section was. A sales guy followed us up and switched on the lights and aircon for us. Gulp. I want to buy your cheapest items, don't get your hopes up high!

We headed directly to the bargain bin, filled with out-of-season, damaged or faded suits. The conversation went something like this:

Guy: What are you looking for?
Engagee : Umm.. we just looking this rack.
Guy : How old is the girl? (we were looking at girl clothes)
Me : uhhh... one?
Engagee : Ermm.. [giggle] small?
Guy : Come, look at the back aisle, there are pretty suits there.
Engagee : Uhh, never mind. We want this ones.
Me : [giggle]
Guy : For whom? Her daughter? (points to me)
Engagee : Uhh... yes. [giggle]

And so it went. The guy couldn't get it how we averagely dressed girls could want to buy such bad frayed, faded clothes for our kids. When we went to get look for a shirt with an opening big enough for Togo's head, we got into another lively conversation about the age of the child and the size of the shirt. Had he known we were buying for a dog (gasp) he might be just insulted enough*** to throw us out by our ears.

Hahaha. After a lot of giggles and a very preplexed and annoyed sales person - he made a small sale, what a waste of time - we at least did manage to get my 'kids' something.

For non-malaysians
* Klang is an predominantly Indian shopping are, full of colour and amazingly gorgeous clothings.
** Its a bargain-type of shopping, with pushy sales people contantly in your face trying to make a sale. Not for the faint-hearted.
*** Umm, well. Some types of people are insult-sensitive. Like people who crash their daughter's wedding with parang because they don't agree to it.

Birthday Shots

Togo thanks everyone and everypup for the birthday wishes.
Togo wants to share more photos of his birthday with you!

A party? For me?
Oh you shouldn't have.


Mommy can't bake to save her life, so she made these yummy treats instead. Recipe here.


Chomp! Chomp! Ooo these peanut butter treats are sticky.
Hey, its not HER birthday. But I'm nice so I'm sharing.


Yummy treats all gone.
Don't worry, we'll lick up the mess for you mommy.


Yum. Can we have more, mommy?

Prezzies! Flavored bones from Togo Uncle.
Did I mention I'm nice? I shared these with Tagar too.


More prezzies! A rubber chicken!
It doesn't squeak when you press it's belly, it farts!

Look at that furlady that's trying to steal MY prezzie.


Yawn.... party over. Go home, everyone.


Tagar : The party ain't over until it's really over.
Goodbye, party hat. Ha-woo woo woo.

Balloon

Togo is ONE!

Togo playing with Mr. Purple Balloon at his birthday party.
After which Mr. Purple Balloon died.

We thought that Togo (who is afraid of thunder, baskets, slamming doors, and a whole lot of other things) would be traumatized after he pops the first balloon with his terrible teeth and claws.

He played around with the merry balloons for quite some time before finally popping one - and we were surprised that he was not the least bit scared. In fact Togo was so pleased with the discovery that the nice colorful things pop that he promptly went popping all the balloons after that!

Oh. And Tagar-the-braver-on was hiding away from the awful colorful things. Poor girl did not like the balloons.

Shower

I was taking in the dried clothes from the hanger, when Togo decided it was time to mark the hanger again, and lifted his leg, and let out a glorious arch of yellow shower, that totally missed its mark, and splattered neatly on my foot.

GROSS.

Joy

The simplest thing can make you happy - like playing with water.

Creature

I found this weird creature recently.

Its a Togo! No, its a Tagar! No, its a ...


its a ...

its a Totagogar!

And yes, they are sound asleep.
Wouldn't be so cutely cuddling each other if awake!
Tales of the furry, scrunchie-eating, lovable tyrant.
