golden oranges

Went to the corner flower shop this morning.

This is what i saw...golden oranges!!!

Chinese New Year is just around the corner, most of the offices and other business establishments now have golden oranges inside the lobby.

Last Friday as i was eating kiat-kiat (the fruit - that's what we call it back home) a collegue asked me where i got it so i pointed (me mouth was full) to one of my colleagues (the person who handed the fruit that morning)...she thought i was pointing down, so she blurted out: "What you got it from the office lobby?"

I nearly choked of laughter...why would i ever do that?

Can't wait for Chinese New Year, there will be a lot of kiat kiat and nuts next week! yipeee! almonds! pistachios and cashew!
