1. My dad has an extensive teapot collection, many of which are antiques and very few are actually used. I usually just use the teapot he has out in the kitchen, but today, he handed me another teapot from his hidden stash “to nurture and look after”—verbatim. This one isn’t an antique, but it’s still older than my dad apparently. It’s also handmade, like the rest of his precious teapots. My dad tied the lid to the pot with golden string and then found a perfect saucer—”Useful room decor!” I can’t wash it with soap, but tea leaves are cleansing agents (?!)…who knows.

    so that’s why my dad asked me to photograph his teapots earlier…

  3. My dad’s really into his teapot collection. He decided to stack the same ones on top of one another and then asked me to take a picture…:P

  7. Happiness for 50 Cents

    I was pretty down today, so my dad and I went to go buy two quarts of Dreyer’s icecream, and then we went to Tapioca Express to buy boba and Taiwanese-style popcorn chicken for my mom. While waiting, we played an intense round of…FOOSBALL. I tied with the last ball—but he probably let me score.

    In the middle of the game, my goalie made a straight shot past all the “daunting” plastic figurines :)
