I am a big fan of jigsaw puzzles. But I've not been touching any jigsaw puzzles since I have children. That would be almost 4 years.
Memories of my childhood solving jigsaw puzzles came flooding back. I took less than 2 hours (uninterrupted) back when I was 15 years old to solve a 500 pieces puzzle. I don't recall doing more than 500 pieces puzzle.
The warmest memories I have is the moment I completed my jigsaw puzzles, I will glue the pieces onto a manila cardboard and my dad will bring it to a nearby photoframe shop and got it frame and then helped me hang it in our house. It feels so good seeing the completed puzzle being framed up nicely and being part of the house decoration.
So yeah, back to present time. After a family dinner recently, I saw a jigsaw puzzle shop and hurried off to check it out. And voila, I saw this 1000 mini pieces jigsaw puzzle of a beautiful nightview of the Hong Kong city. When I saw this mini jigsaw puzzle box (even mentioned 'The world's smallest jigsaw puzzle') I was hooked.
I love Hong Kong. Was there almost a decade ago for company trip and really enjoyed myself there. My first overseas company trip! Needless to say, I immediately grabbed the one remaining puzzle and bought it.
As a SAHM of 2 children (teaching my 3.5 years old boy and trying to get my 14 months old girl to remain still and not get into any mischief), it is really taking a long long long long time for me to do the puzzle. I have to wait till both kids are asleep, that I am not rushing any paperworks for my hubby's business or I'm not rushing out any blog posts or reviews just to get a little bit time to do the puzzles.
As of now, I am only able to get 1 of the sides completed. Slow and steady, hopefully I get to finish it soon! Wish me luck!
