Chrysalis already!

These caterpillars never cease to amaze us!  Just this morning when I came home from work, they were still caterpillars curled up and suspended from their leaves.  This evening when we went out for dinner, they’ve transformed into chrysalises already! Apparently, according to Wikipedia, the caterpillar stage only […]

Parcel from Singapore

Yay!!  ^-^ I was slightly disappointed on returning from my last night shift today to learn that no parcels had arrived for me.  Nevertheless, one decided to turn up at my doorstep in the afternoon – all the way from Singapore ^-^  Thanks Gina! They were only shipped […]

Monarch caterpillars!

The Kiiroitori plague

Kiiroitori (aka Chick) and I have a love-hate relationship.  In some series he is kawaii, in others he is fugly (please excuse my language).  Nevertheless, his rotund body is required to complete my Rilakkuma sets – thus, I have bought the following Kiiros (they come from various countries […]
