pst pst..

There's a dog whisperer in Taiwan! He brings his golden retrievers out to the Taipei 101 area and somehow, he's able to get the doggies to just lay on the ground and not move for a really long time! He also collects money from people walking by. The hubby wants to produce a Taiwanese Dog Whisperer show but instead of Cesar, he would be named Ceezah.

The Hammy's...

are no longer homeless!! Papa Hammy was nice enough to let us renovate an old, empty property of his - and so, we're going to do it! We checked out the location and since it has been empty for so long, it was quite disgusting. Here's our new home pre-makeover:

Happy renovating, Hammys'.

for my godson's momma & poppa

Please come visit soon.

Hello, Panda.

Look what I found at the Costco in Taipei today:


A ginormous box of Hello Pandas. Everything jumbo size appeals to me. While crossing the street to get to Costco, we saw a strange crosswalk light:


WTF. How are we supposed to see the light when it is facing the pole? I'm going to have to tell the Taipei city mayor about this. After Costco, we traveled to a famous Sushi place nearby and had this for dinner:



It was a funtastic Sunday.

Foot Fetish

What I love about Taipei is how convenient and cheap everything is. I have a thing for foot massages and lucky for me, they are everywhere AND they are cheap! It's a perfect way to end the night after a long day of walking and eating ... and watching Resident Evil 3 in 3D with my cousin and his wife.

Grandpa Hammy

My grandpa enjoying some sushi at the Taipei 101 food court. I found it amusing for some reason.

i miss Shady

We passed by a huge Tod's ad a few days ago and it reminded us of Shady. At the same time we were taking a photo, a lady walked in with a yorkie and said that her yorkie looked just like the one in the ad. It so did not. Shady looked a lot more like it!

Fat Hammy

I haven't been very good about posting since my return to Taipei. I've been too busy eating. Hammy is a true ham. Me eating a peking duck burrito at a restaurant in the Westin Hotel. MmmMmm good...
