Sun bathing


I mentioned that Kenshiro seldom closes her eyes during her nap.
Well, this is the rare moment... still not completely closed, and her ears up in alert though...

At her safest haven

Kenshiro is generally a very nervous/timid rabbit.
She gets shocked by any little sound or sudden movement.
She often get panicked by ....nothing much.
So we seldome see her sleeping flat, or with her eyes completely closed.
I've seen some rabbits, (especially lop-ear bunnies) completely losing themselves in their deep sleep. I really hope one day she will know that there is nothing for her to afraid of at home.
Only one place where she's seen relaxed, streching very long is under the sofa.
It's her safest haven.
So, even if we move (We may move after our first human baby's arrival, if God provides for us),
I must secure this safest haven of hers.

mother to be bellybalm


What?: Mother to be Bellybalm (stretch marks prevention)
Brand: Bee beauty (Tasmania)
How much?: $AUS. 19.5 ~
I first knew this brand when one of our aunties bought a body balm for me.
I loved the scent of the balm, and it was animal testing free.
When I got pregnant and thought about buying a belly cream, I thought of the brand again.
Bellycream can be very costly. Ones advertised in the Japanese magazines would cost about 3000yen, and they are most like;y tested on animals. Those famous ones in HK, which are also animal test free, that I know would cost about HK$250 and more.
So I think it's worth the net-shopping for this one.
It's cruelty free, still cheaper than major brands after the shipping fee,and beautiful scent of lavender and tangerine with organic oils and rich bee wax.
I bought 3 large cans (aus. $35 each), and now after receiving it, I thought two might have been enough, but I can use them as a body balm as well, so that's ok.

Handmade wooden rabbit


Where: franc franc (Kowloon Tung, Hong Kong)
How much? : $HK89, what a bargain! (Jap. price tag says 1200yen)
This wooden rabbit caught my eyes right away in franc franc the other day.
Its face quite real, yet with kind of tiger paws and funny arms.
Almost as if those parts were originally made for making other animals;)
Anyway...I started to like rabbit goods that have "more real" expressions, rather than cute ones.
And this one is right in.

Peaceful Sunday afternoon

One of our habit for Sunday afternoon is taking a nap.

Husband lying on the floor and Kenshiro curiously sniffing around him is a typical scene.

Nothing special, but it's one of those peaceful moment I love to witness.

Digging in...

Kenshiro's recent favorite activity:
Going into the hay bag to enjoy the left-over soft bit.
However, it gets quite a panic/chaos when she's got surprised somehow while being in there..
e.g. Sudden noise, sudden movement of us etc.
So, I'd better not let her do that.

Cool Jelly cushion

What: Jelly cushion
How much: $26 each?
Where: Japan Home (日本城)
Japan Home has lots of useful stuff, and though it is Japan Home, I haven't seen many of the stuff they sell in Japan.
I'm impressed with "summer goods" they have, like straw mat, straw pillow etc, which in my observation, very common in hot steamy Hong Kong.
This pink Jelly cusion Kenshiro is sitting on is one of them.
I bought them last year for ourselves, but this year I gave the pink (it's her theme colour!}one to her.
At first, she wasn't very keen on hopping onto the soft surface, but once she knows it's cool, she's up to it.
She doesn't chew stuff much, so its safe for her, too.
Nice, right?
