Epinox, a flower that blooms on September 20

27/7/2014

A rare Sunday lunch with friends and their kids at the ever so crowded VivoCity.

小雨 pointed to the ship and said "airplane!". Yep, they are both white and big, with passengers looking like tiny ants in them. They do look similar.

小雨 got expressive with emotions today, at the Artbox store. Holding up a pouch of a bunny face gritting its teeth, she exclaimed "Angry!" as she stomped her feet.

An "Angry!" bunny...
Holding another pouch with a gray face and a blue droplet by the side of its forehead, she said "Cry!" . With a sad face, she "sayanged" it.

小雨 "sayanged" this "crying?" face...
Eh you know I know that blue droplet is a drop of sweat, not a tear drop. And this isn't a sad look but a *........ look*. Hmm... I wonder what's the appropriate word to describe this look? 

I asked Kirin. He said this meant 无语 in Chinese or "Deln" in English.

*Gives the ........ look* I'll use the word "speechless", the next time I need to describe this look.

So... what's a word to describe 小雨's own emotion for today? Not happy but Elated ! She sang lots of songs and rattled endlessly. Kirin said she must have practised every single word in her vocabulary bank today, including new, rare Chinese words like "眼镜" as she pointed to the glass showcase of frames from outside an optical shop. 

Somehow, it reminded me of sneaky little Yang putting on her Mom's 眼镜 and treading carefully in the house, when nobody's around.

Art-in-Yang's-Yoghurt tonight - a flower that blooms at 12 midnight, like the medianox at the greenhouse in the film - The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, but just once a year on the 20th of September. Yet another inspiration from my walk in the enchanting Cloud Forest two days ago.

A flower of a deep blue pistil and pure, cream petals with a tinge of pinkiness at the petal tips. To represent my little innocent snow white, who blushes with pinkie cheeks.

The September/autumnal Equinox occurs around the 22nd when the plane of the Earth's Equator passes the centre of the Sun. So I'll call this "Epinox", a flower which blooms about 2 days before the Equinox, on every September 20, to herald the arrival of 小雨 and celebrate her birthdays thereafter.

    Of culinary she cooks to stimulate her five senses, with her stash of homemade chicken stock; Of lyrics she sings to echo her moods and feelings, from the world of beautiful singers and songwriters; Of yoghurt art she creates to capture her memories and emotions, in a bowl of low fat natural yoghurt.
