Pooch Green Steps: Day Unknown... and Day 18.

Urgh… How many days have we missed? I’m not even sure if I could count properly with my 10 fingers so let’s forget about it. Well the good news is, we are back… kind of. :P

Last week was a crazy one. Thanks to everyone sales started to pour in and we were swamped – no neither of us were complaining, so please continue to flood us babe! :D

And yesterday we realised that our website’s bandwidth exceeded (not sure if this is the correct way to say it, I’m so damn not geeky). Now we would seriously like to thank Yew Jin from Shooweb.net for lifting our bandwidth and for you-know-why! :D

OK so back to the green steps. Mum suggested that I could use her making-of-enzyme photos. But I was too busy packing stuffs when she was doing it so I’ll only have the enzymes in bottle to share. She made this out of those vege and fruit waste and out of the many many many use, I know she use it to clean the floor. It was said to be ant-proof. Not sure how true is it though since I’m still seeing ants in the house once in a while. :D

Pooch Green Steps: Day 9 and 10.

My mother has been avoiding packing take-away food in polystyrene foam or any other disposable containers. I’ve been following her steps for a while now. True enough that at times, it’s a little inconvenient. But that is just because we are too spoilt with all the disposable utensils in our lives. Knowing that the little inconvenience is doing good for the nature and ourselves, it’s just worth the effort.

This evening we have take-away fish noodle for dad. :)

Pooch Green Steps: Day 8.

My family has been collecting kitchen waste and burying them in the garden for a few months – although we can’t collect and bury all kitchen waste (since there are so many of us in the household), but we are trying to collect as much as we can. While I was the one who suggested the idea, I have to thank my mum and my grandma’s housekeeper for carrying it out. :)

Here is what we have today. Egg shells, some vege, and some unknown Chinese medicine waste. :D
Kitchen waste of the day.

Pooch Green Steps: Day 7, Passing On the Love.

Little niece Chao Chao and I spent a little time in the the evening planting our wheat berries.

Planting wheat berries. Didn't realise the pot was too small!

We (or rather, I) didn’t realise the pot was too small for our bowl of wheat berries, and ended up moving them to a much bigger foam box that was already filled up with soil. And she was so totally into covering the berries with more soil!

Moved to a bigger foam box that was already filled up with soil. Easier job. ;)

Isn’t it nice to be able to pass something about love to the next generation? :)

Passing on the love. We'll be seeing wheatgrass soon!

Pooch Green Steps: Day 5 and 6.

OK. Boo me. I missed the green step yesterday and blah! I was just having a don’t-feel-like-posting mood. Maybe I shouldn’t have made it a daily task. *roll eyes*

Anyway. I soaked some organic wheat berries this afternoon, preparing them to be planted tomorrow. If you didn’t know, wheat berries will grow into wheat grass… for the dogs. Yes, both the dogs LOVE wheat grass. Xiao Bi will practically have it like a treat. I haven’t been growing them for some time so today is just the right time. :)

Wheat Berries.

The one on the right is mine, and the tiny one on the left belongs to little niece a.k.a Chao Chao. We’ll be planting them tomorrow so stay tuned! ;)
