Dear all, thanks for the support given so far, it is highly appreciated!
Those zong zi is prepared by my mum. I can’t go home for the past 4 years due to the heavy family commitment (2 young kids, 3 yo and 4.5 months). I am too homesick and I arranged my mum’s visit. However, my mum didn’t speak English. I am very happy to meet my mum but not for her (after some times). My mum felt very boring here and starts to get a bit upset.
As a daughter I felt that I am too selfish, so I come out this activity for my mum. Firstly I only open to friends but the order is limited. I then post the adv at BBS, I offer the buy 10 free 2 package to encourage more orders, hopping that my mum can at least do it once weekly. I buy the ingredients from nearby supermarket; current selling price is enough to cover the cost. This activity has becomes the centre of my mum’s daily life here. I am updating the activities of my adv at BBS daily for my mum. Thanks for those posting the comments. I can see my mum is happier now.
I soon found that the respond is not good for self-pick up, so I start the delivery system. Extra $1 per order is included to deliver to Chinatown. I can’t drive and we can only go by bus. We offer 3 types of zong zi: (a) pork meat, (b) red bean sweet taste and (b) mix of both.
My mum can start to make the zong zi after receive every 3-4 orders, or order will be close on Thursday and deliver on Friday.
Many thanks again.
