Christmas Day dinner at Por Por & Goong Goong's.


Eric, Por Por & Aunty Christine.

Hanging out with my Ah Yee by the pond. As you can see I am trying to fish with a stick!



My Goong Goong making Malaysian Satay on the BBQ. My Goong Goong makes his own satay peanut sauce to dip the satay in. The sauce was a bit to spicy for me so I just had a taste of the satay meat instead. I loved it!

My Mummy made Ondeh-Ondeh; a traditional Malaysian Nonya dessert. It is made from gluntinous rice flour, tapioca flour and pandan. Inside it has melted brown sugar (although Mummy didn't put enough sugar inside) and they are rolled in freshly grated coconut!

Having plum pudding with homemade custard that my Mummy & Yee Joong made.
My Yee Jong looks a bit funny in this photo!!

For dinner we had satay, salmon, Ah Cha (a traditional Malaysian pickled salad that my Ah Yee made), Morten Bay Bugs, Thai salad that my Por Por made and yellow sticky rice! We thought we should have a Malaysian meal to celebrate Christmas this year with a bit of an Aussie/English twist of course, beer, pudding & fruit salad. A bit like me!!

Merry Christmas to everyone who visits my blog, I hope you all have enjoyed my journey this year and I hope to see you back here in the new year!!
Lots of love, kisses & hugs from Morri.

Christmas Eve dinner at Nanna's.

Annie & Me

Great Grandad the big reindeer, Aunty Amanda & Annie the little reindeer!
Nanna cooked a huge Christmas feast!! We had roast pork with crackling, roast chicken, roast vegies, stuffing, ham, mince pies, cheese and pudding. I didn't didn't get to have any pudding, becuase I had to go to bed.
Pulling a christmas cracker with Daddy.
After dinner we opened our presents. Annie & I got the most!!

Eating cherries.

Eating the cherries that we didn't pick!!
Mummy has a special cherry pitter that takes out the seeds of cherries, so I can enjoy eating cherries without having to worry about eating the seeds!!

Cherry Picking...


On Sunday, we had planned to go Cherry picking with my Por Por, Goon Goong, Ah Yee & Yee Joong, but it rained so much the day before and my Yee Joong told us that the Cherries would all be damaged by the rain and that the ground would be muddy - and I don't have any gumboots!! So instead we went to an Organic cafe in Brunskwick St Fitzroy for lunch and then we went to buy boxes of cherries on Victoria Street in Richmond!!
My Yee Jong's Christmas present!! - A scooter!! He pressed the horn for me and I got a fright!! And I asked him if he could have a scoot on his new bike so I could see what it can do!! He scooted up and down the street and I waved to him every time he went past!!
mmm... I wonder if Santa would get one for me for Christmas? It looks like fun!!


After a days hard work of not picking any cherries!!
My Ah Yee, Yee Joong & me - sweet dreams...

Nice & Cosy!

At the moment, I like to lie down on anything that is soft and cosy. I like to put pillows on the floor and snuggle up to them. I especially like it when Mummy & Daddy put blankets & pillows on the floor and lie down with me. I like to climb all over them and give them lots of hugs & kisses.

At Nanna's birthday party.

My Nanna & Great Grandad.
We went out to dinner to celebrate Nanna's birthday. We had to leave early as it was way past my bed time and I was having trouble keeping still!!
My Uncle Andy & me exchanging cute grins to one another.
My Aunty Amanda with cousin Annika in her hug-a-bub!! I used to have a ride in that thing too when I was little. It was past Annika's bed time too, but I think she coped better at staying up late than me!!

Organising my schedule.

I am organising my social life. I have a very busy schedule and I need to make sure Mummy knows when I would like to go to the Park, visit my friends and family, buy my Christmas presents and places I would like visit these holidays!! So I am just noting them all in Mummy's diary!!

Daddy's belt.

I am wearing Daddy's belt. It can wrap around me twice!!

Farm Art And Friends

Today I went to my Mummy's old work at the Abbotsford Convent, NMIT Arts Education Program. They were launching a new book which the students from the Arts Education Program and the kinder children in the local area did together.

This is the front cover of the book.

After the book launch, we all walked down to the Collingwood Children's Farm for afternoon tea.

This is Milly. She is the daughter of my Mummy's friend Kara. She showed me around the Farm as it was my first visit ever!! Mummy says she used to come here all the time when she worked at Arts Education! Mummy says that I have been here before, when she was pregnant with me!


Mummy showed me the Guinea Pigs. They were nice and soft like my cat although I wasn't too sure about their little feet, they were a bit scratchy on my legs!
Mummy says she will bring me back to the Collingwood Children's Farm again because there are lots of animals to pat and see!! Mummy says I could feed a baby lamb, if I am lucky!!

Freshly Squeezed.


I like to have freshly squeezed orange juice for lunch!

At my Por Por & Goong Goong's place.

On Tuesdays, I spend the day at my Por Por & Goong's Goong's place. They take me out shopping and spoil me!! They even let me ride on the kiddy coin slot rides in the shopping centre. I tested all the different rides around the shopping centre; they had a merry-go-round and a ride-on horse. I didn't want to get off them they were so fun!!


I like to play in their backyard, they have a pond that I like to poke a stick in and scare the fish!!
My Ah Yee put some water in a bucket for me to play with. I liked to stir & poke my stick in the bucket. I gave the doll a wash and added some grass to make her skin nice and clean!!

Playing with Tricky (my Ah Yee & Yee Joong's dog)


My Por Por & Goong Goong went to Queensland for a few days for a holiday. They went to the Australia Zoo and brought me back a baby tiger, she is cute and cuddly!

Small Gems Exhibition, Metro 5 Gallery. Armadale.

Yesterday afternoon was the opening of the 'Small Gems' Exhibition. My Daddy had 4 of his artworks in the exhibition, along with other artists who exhibit at Metro 5.

I was more interested in the switches than the art. The art were too high for me look at and I wasn't allowed to touch anything!

They had a 3 piece jazz band playing, and they even had some nibblies - the cheeses was really nice!!

My Daddy had 2 pen drawings & 2 ink drawings for sale. They are all studies that he has been doing in between his paintings. A couple of people bought 2 of his drawings on the day!! Mummy & Daddy were very happy. I was too!!

Afterwards we went to a cafe nearby and I had a vanilla milkshake!! Mmmmmmm!
