To the 80's babies and to everyone who had spent their childhood blowing a balloon from a dollop of gel, remember this?
I just don't know what to call this. I think I just called it "belon" last time.
It has been a while since I saw it on sale at a shop. Maka dulu time kicik-kicik, it's a must buy item when I managed to follow my parents to the town. Oh, and this is what my grandma always buy for me when she came back from Tamu every Wednesday ( apart from the candies and keropoks )
Blowing the balloon from a dollop of gel at the end of the straw. It's definitely an art itself. Haha. Those were the days.
And to make it even better,must lick the gel to get the best shape so that it's easier to get the desired shape. Haha. Padahal, tidak sedap pun rasa that gel-like stuff ( and nI presume its quite toxic too. LOL )
So, with the balloon we can do a lot of stuff with it. Let the imagination takes control.
