Yam-Seal


My mom thinks this yam looks like a seal, and excitedly showed us. Now it sits on the kitchen counter as an ornament and proudly surveys all that is cooking.

Hahahaa, so cute!! My mom and dad have this thing for garden ornaments - my mom for bronze little children statue things, and my dad for little dog statues. We have like three little dog statues right in front of the front door and one time I accidentally knocked over one of the dogs, and my dad said to me, "OH NO, did you say sorry??" HAHAHAHA :)

Who is Andy Dick, hahahaa? XD But man, dragged off the stage and everything? That is sad...

Wait, isn't the Oregon trip before Gwan Yin Session?

Bronze children statues and little dog statues? That's too cute. That is pretty unique for your family though. Plus I think they'll last for a longer time than Yam Seal. :)

Andy Dick is a comedian. And he still appears in movies and tv. But, probably in less prominent vehicles like cable reality shows, voice-acting, and bit acting roles.

I think there's 2 Oregon sessions. The more intensive one is after the Guan Yin session.

probably many many life times ago, this yam may have been a seal. =) According to what I've heard, insentient beings can become sentient and vice versa.

Hahaha, reminds me of the old chinese stories I read as a kid. People in ancient china would go looking for old ginseng, because they're extra effective as medicine. Except when they find them and pull them out from the ground, the ginseng would shriek and run away. I wonder if those shrieking mandrake from Harry Potter share the same origin.

The yam said "I am a seal."

Sure, I'm sure you can buy your mutated yam at the local grocery store. :)

Yeal as a nice ring. Maybe a name for an experimental band? ;)
