Rabbit Year Sourcing - Part 3a

Date: 31st January 2011
Location: Parents’ place, Melaka

Every time I return home, I wished to spend more time with my family. I have taken numerous photos of my parents’ house and I believe now is the best time to share them with my readers. In my previous post, I mentioned that my mum had green fingers and she has a collection of potted plants and outdoor decors.
