"Clever is ...
the others even do not know he/she is clever.
It is the cleverest."
Iza said yesterday.
I doubted with my ears.
But it was exactly what she was saying.
Reassured.
A blissful sigh...

Tommorrow, we will leave for 3 days,
attending a Design Conference in Shanghai - Design Ephemra.
It is the first time we deliver speech outside Hong Kong.
I'm a bit anxious because my (our) Putonghua is ...
Before leaving, I love to share some books.
Below is an exquisite book on female artists' books,

First thing, I have well received your e-mail and will answer shortly.
