ooops…. seems my recent trip to Alaska kept me from posting here a little longer than I expected. Apologies!
I’m back and hope to be posting more regularly now. In the meantime, I’ve put a few pictures of Alaska at my main blog. You can view them there if you’re interested.
Watch for more China-related posts here coming up soon!

Using on a recent post here, I pasted the text in at I Write Like, a site that analyzes your writing and tells you which famous author it is most like. Here’s the result….
Whew! Don’t I wish!!!
That’s way better than the answer I got on one of my other blogs. Based on the most recent post there, I was told I write like Dan Brown. :-(

Please bear with me as I verify that I own this blog.

I have a friend in Shanghai who is in the middle of her first pregnancy… and she is living so far from her home (at least, the place she grew up, and where most of her family still is).
If you’d like to have a look at how she’s managing, visit her blog at Shanghai Noodles. I’ve been trying to catch up a little over there, now that my computer is fixed, and there’s lots of fun stuff to read! Stop by and visit — I think you’ll get a kick out of reading it.

I’ve recently had a busy schedule, and an uncooperative network. That combination doesn’t lead to conditions conducive to blogging. Apologies that I’ve not kept up well around here for the past couple of weeks, but I think things are back to normal now, and I should be a bit more regular here.

Sorry to have been out of pocket. Since I am going to be heading back to Singapore tomorrow, it seems I’ve had a lot of stuff to wrap up this past week in Shanghai. I should be back on schedule now, though.
Sorry for the brief break. I do hope to be back at it now.

This blog has recently gained acceptance to the China page at Alltop.

I mentioned Alltop in an earlier post here, but for those who haven’t seen that post, I’ll give a brief explanation. Alltop is like a very high-class magazine rack. It lists the RSS feeds of a wide variety of good blogs, and categorizes them in a way that makes it easy for you to find the information you want. Tai Shan is listed in the China section.
Thanks, Alltop, for listing Tai Shan alongside the fine blogs that appear at your site!
