Selamat Hari Raya & Happy Children's Day!

Selamat Hari Raya & Happy Children's Day! :) Today must be super-happy because the two celebrations fall on the same day in Singapore: October 1, 2008. It was difficult getting the candy for Children's Day this year for the children in my piano studio, due to the China milk scandal, which I find very, very sad and unscrupulous. :( One of my students told me that even the baby animals in China have kidney stones because they were fed the milk. :( Very sad.

I have been told that children in general love squishy, chewy, bouncy candies. White Rabbit, which children loved though it was traditional, would have been the obvious choice previously, but not anymore. Definitely NO candies/foods from China from me! So this year, it's bouncy Yupi gummies manufactured in Indonesia, and the much-loved Chupa Chups Lollipops manufactured in Mexico. :)

Selamat Hari Raya & Happy Children's Day! :)
