In Flowery Mood

Last Wed I've been Jln TAR Ramadhan Bazaar. Despite the fasting month, my adrenaline is running high and fast due to few reasons.
First, I drove to there and parked at the paid parking opposite the Campbell, and rather than the usual daily rate of $3/5, this parking operator really took advantages of this festive season.
Just because of high traffic is predict and expectable to be at JTAR, particularly to the bazaar, they raised the rate to $7. And theres no point to argue, yet you just saw the new rate being hung next to the lady cashier. No significant/proper rate signage can be foreseen from the entrance ie Jln Dang Wangi.
And please, please, do not ever try to link it to the newly announced fuel priced hike, coz they dint run anything (maybe, except for the cash register machine) that use petrol/diesel.
Secondly, the weather was so cloudy cum calmy when we left home, but it turned super bright and sunny at the bazaar. (Imagine walking among the crowd in tat weather during fasting)
Thirdly, my SIL kept looking and hoping for a cheaper piece of stripey blouse (at the rate of KB of course) with the knowledge of impossibility, but she dares to day dreaming. Poor pity girl. She got a taste of KL people but not willing to pay for the price. She had troubled me many times before that I had kept my eyes close. Somebody (not me!) really needs to spank tat girl and wake her up from her dreams. Enuf of her!
Fourthly,I had an eye for a nice table runner but the sellers seem not to tolerate for even a dollar bargain! No need to ask them, all will be given are the old same lame excuses; they had to bear high rent, costly products etc etc bla bla....Okay, but dont blame the DBKL when you are not making money/profit enuf at the end of month coz we customer are TIRED, u know???? No wonder some people resort to the nearby air-conditioned S**o that always on sale (I wonder how come they advertise this (SALE) for 365 days a year. Kah kah kah, my sister been there during the Sale regardless of its not fasting day, its was really tiring experience coz u cannot walk, and shop and pay, because people are everywhere cramped at their small lane, and long queue at every counter (they had an island counter which up to 4 can operate simultaneously but they only have courtesy of opening maybe 1 or 2, ONLY!)
Like a non-tired grandma, there are lots more to mumble but I spare those only to myself.
So, here are some of my catch of the day....enjoy!!!
~My 1st overpriced tiara tudung, my sister want to vomit listening to the piece style at the price ~Soft green rose, like going there coz they have more choices of flower rather than usual florist~on top of Biby cabinet~Also soft green hydrangea, (these and above only cost me $130)~on top of smadal there it goes
~topiary tble runner for tble of 6 for my sis at Paka, so lovely at $35 (cannot get cheaper anymore?)
