So good I can collaborate with artist (Apple) from "Arts with the Disabled Association Hong Kong" on some mural pieces in 2/F 618上海街. (working in progress)
All thanks to Dignity Kitchen, a restaurant coming from Singapore, they provide training and job opportunities to differently-abled and disadvantaged adults.

This is a Long post, but something dear to me. I hope you can share this post as well.
So I wrote a children’s story book.
It is about an ice cube who leaves the comfort of a freezer to journey across the world through sand and snow to find his idol-an iceberg. There is an awesome twist at the end!
I felt I needed to speak about this, this journey that is life and the human potential. And especially teach it to Jude early on, that his capabilities are only confined to his imagination. Credit to the awesome illustrator - Jade Fang who tirelessly worked on the way I wanted the book to present itself in my head and Candid Creation Publishing for publishing advice.
The children title has been picked for this years’ Singapore Writers Festival as well, and will debut on November 10th!!!

More importantly, I will be donating all book proceeds (all ,not nett) to Dignity Mama.
https://projectdignity.sg/dignity-mama/
Dignity Mama (under Dignity Kitchen from Seng Choon Koh’s Project Dignity Singapore) provides caregivers and young adults with special needs purpose a real business they can operate together. The caregivers at Dignity Mama ( usually the Mothers of these young adults) really are the true ice bergs of their families and society.
These proceeds will help go into the creation of a new kiosk that can employ another Mother and her child to operate a business.
Each book retails for SGD20.
And I have 1000 books on hand for sale.
I hope you can help me buy a book ( or many) and collectively raise SGD20,000 for Dignity Mama.
Alternatively, for those who simply want to donate, I will still provide you a book(s) but will send it off to MSF Singapore who will donate it to the underprivileged children they work with. Just drop me a WhatsApp or PM.
These books will also be available for purchase directly at Dignity Mama outlets and also Dignity Kitchen.
On 10th Nov, do come down and visit Dignity Mama and I on that day. The young adults will be making special themed gifts to go along with your onsite book purchase. It will be a fun time!
Be More, Little Ice Cube!

For this episode, I devoured 50 Otah Buns from Soul Shiok! for a charity challenge! Soul Shiok! is a homegrown Otah Bun kitchen that delivers freshly made Otah Buns to your doorstep. The Otah Buns are made fresh with a spiced mackerel filling.
For this challenge, an anonymous donor challenged me to consume 50 Otah Buns in one go, and if I did it, he would donate $800 to Assisi Hospice. Assisi Hospice provides palliative care for patients and families that preserves their dignity and quality of life. Patients of any race, faith and financial position are cared for by their team of specialist doctors, nurses, allied health and pastoral care professionals. When faced with life limiting illnesses, their patients receive medical care, as well as psychosocial, emotional and spiritual care.
The Otah Buns were surprisingly plump with a generous amount of filling per bun. They were distinctively spiced, with a good amount of spiciness and notes of lemongrass and curry leaves. As is traditional, they were wrapped in banana leaves for additional aroma. The filling had decently sized chunks of mackerel in them.
With such high stakes, I did not let Assisi Hospice down and completed the challenge, pushing through the heat. I am glad that they will be receiving their much needed $800 donation, but please consider helping them out yourself by chipping in what you can. Do also support Soul Shiok! for providing the Otah Buns for this charity challenge!
