Christmas Dinner

We had steamboat on Christmas day. We have not had steamboat for almost 1 year already, can you beat that? That’s because we always feel very thirsty after having steamboat. I think there must be loads of MSG in the salty but tasty soup.  Another major turn-off about having steamboat is that we are normally all…

Happy 2008 To Everyone!

We will all be checking into a 5-star hotel in KL today for a one-night stay and count down to the New Year. Not letting anyone know which hotel we’ll be staying just in case there are stalkers out there LOL! Hopefully our plan to go to the fish spa in Pavillion will materialize. You…

Boxing Day Breakfast

On Christmas day, we were out shopping at Mid Valley. Hubby bought some bacon and sausages from Cold Storage and on Boxing Day, he woke up early to cook them for us for breakfast. The gals didn’t like scrambled eggs (and I ended up finishing half the plate) but loved the salty cheese sausages. I seldom…

Our Christmas Day

Hubby had bought this Yuletide log cake for my parents in Ipoh. We passed it to my brother at the hotel on the morning of Christmas but when he left the coffee house after breakfast for Ipoh, he had also left the cake behind. So we brought the log cake home for the gals to…

Ipoh Ngar Choi Kai

We wanted to eat something light and soupy last Sunday, so we had Ipoh ‘ngar choi kai’ at Jalan Gasing PJ last Sunday after church.

Strawberry Fondue

Alycia and Sherilyn had another surprise when we were at Paya Serai Coffee House @ PJ Hilton to celebrate Raymond’s kau foo’s birthday last week. It was the first time we all saw a chocolate fondue that’s pink in color – a strawberry chocolate fondue, how unique and attractive. After their meals, daddy brought the…

Fanciful Cloth Diapers

I notice that the latest craze most mommies are into now are fanciful cloth diapers for their babies.  I’ve never used them for both my gals and I don’t know how effective they are. I notice that most mommies buy at least a dozen of them though they are a tad pricey, so I suppose…

An Italian Touch

The gals had a taste of fine Italian dining at Villa Danieli @ Sheraton Imperial Hotel on Thursday. We ordered a spaghetti for the gals. Though there were lots of black pepper on the spaghetti, the gals nevertheless slurped up their spaghetti without any fuss or complaints that it was spicy. Sherilyn who loves cheese…

We’re Getting A Confinement Lady

After a long debate discussion with hubby last night, we he has finally decided to engage a CL. I told him that with both his mum and my mum helping me out together with a maid, we don’t really need a CL.  All my reasoning was rebuffed by him.  Well, what can I do now…

Not So Sweet Candy Floss

When we were at Mid Valley Megamall last week, daddy bought the gals candy floss to let them try it for their first time. But to our surprise, Alycia and Sherilyn did not like it at all. They found the candy floss wierd looking and not convincingly yummy. The moment daddy put the candy floss to…

Is Confinement Lady Really Necessary?

These days confinement ladies (CL) are charging exorbitantly.  I called up a few CLs today and most of them are quite demanding, monetarily and in other areas.  Most of them would only want to accept the job if : 1) You don’t stay in a double-storey house (coz most of them have problems climbing up the…

Online Backgammon

I never knew what online backgammon game is until I saw my friend’s father playing it on his computer! He told me it’s a good way to stave off Alzheimer’s disease coz the game requires the brain to work. For those of you who don’t know how to play backgammon, it is a board game…

Little Vietnam

We had Vietnamese food at this little restaurant called Little Vietnam @ Mid Valley Megamall last week, after the gals’ outing at Megakidz.  Little Vietnam is located on the utmost top floor, i.e where Megakidz is. We ordered their signature dish, the flat rice noodles with beef balls and slices of beef. It was very tasty but…

Nerve-racking Moments

There were 3 high paying opps from TigaP network since this morning but they were all shaded grey.  Each time the opp turned white (3 times), it took ages to load the page, then ages for the damn captcha to appear, then after I had typed the hard-to-decipher captcha (at times typed it wrongly), I had to wait ages…
