Yesterday, after dinner, apps settled down infront of the TV with some mandarin oranges. Guess what, we found a mandarin orange with a teeny weeny leaf. Since we don't see this often, apps asked whether I wanna to take its photo (he knows, it always 'me and my camera'). Coincidentally, this morning, while reading lb's post, I found something interesting. He says that "tangerines with leaves intact is a symbol of good luck"!
Hmmm, does this leaf count? :)

mom2ashley,
I didn't too.. until I read lb's post this morning :P
lb,
yeap, that's why I took the picture. I know, I know... still, I shall take it as good luck for me, since we came across something not common ;)
good thinking...took a snap...posted in the web and now, the luck is permanently locked in - all yours :)
two little fellas,
good eh! Okay, now I can look forward for this special luck this coming new year...
You know now they have these clementines where you actually get leaves on them? They are sweeter and nicer, and of course more expensive.
wah wahh..serious bout the luck thing huh...start some gambling session to find out :P
zara's mama,
yeah, but since the ones we got don't usually have the leave attached, this is a lucky one!
That one, we can buy, but this is real luck.. since its hard to find such.. hehehe..
jazzmint,
okay, okay, so I go buy number lah.. Hope it strikes!
well, good luck!! ;)
sfo,
thanks you..
Oh really? I had one too from hubby. Hope luck will come pouring in like rain...hehehe!
Oh btw, don't eat too much of that fruit, it makes one weak very easily. My maid was coughing non stop after eating that. Chinese believe, it had hidden heat and make body sick easily even though it's cooling when you eat them.
allyfeel,
lucky you.. Let's hope together!
Yeah, I was caught by it (even if I ate very few). I got 'angin' and that's when I sprained my neck and shoulder. So painful. Also can get upset stomach. But, the sprain is good enough, I stopped eating until New Year, just ate one, for more good luck :P
