Actually there is another kinf of ice pop…is a long plastic bag, slim one, then tie at one end or make a nob. Then start filling what ever flavour drinks, seal the other end with a nob and place it in the freezer. My ah ma used to do that for me…you can fill with ‘sem bue chui’ with ‘sem bue’ in…sedap!!!

hiya this is ah tan from ‘ay-ya-lan’ 🙂 hehe. thanks for the shoutout in the last episode. i’m a penangite through and through, although slightly ah-mo-sai (i come from the school very close to yours, john, penang *toot* school, haha! 😀 i have to say, my hokkien has definitely improved since i started listening in. besides that, the show ensures that i don’t forget some very important hokkien phrases! 😀 my favourite shows are when u reminisce about stuff that we grew up with, eg. childhood publications, the mini-market etc. i can’t help smiling and nodding along when u guys discuss stuff that’s so close to all our hearts! i listen to quite a few podcasts, but i have to say penanghokkien is by far my favourite! so here’s a thank you for making a homesick penangite’s life that bit easier. more power to ya 🙂
Wow! It’s been ages since I saw those snacks! I used to beg my mum to buy me those candies when I was small. Now I can still get those bubblegum (in the small boxes) in Lincoln, Nebraska….unbelievable! Look forward to hear more!
