FollowWhen my parents were here last week, my dad took over the wok one afternoon and cooked fried vermicelli. After happily sweating it out in the kitchen (my dad is naturally a talented cook and loves whipping out dishes for us), my dad suddenly remembered he had forgotten to put the marinated pork into the…

Completely Burnt Out
Last night after dinner, hubs brought us to my supplier’s place to collect my customers’ clothes. By the time we reached home, it was almost 10pm. Alycia who had to wake up at 6am to prepare for school and had skipped her afternoon nap as she had to attend Mandarin tuition was so burnt out that…
Why, Why Baby?
Why, why Baby are you waking up at 6am everyday for the past 2 days? Once this happens, mummy’s plan will go haywire. You don’t want Kakak or daddy but only want mummy, no one else but mummy!! Aiyoyo Baby girl, mummy has to supervise Alycia jie jie so that she gets ready by 6:30am. …
CNY Cookies
2 weeks ago, we bought our first jar of CNY cookie to ‘pong chan’ (help to patronize) the very nice girl who sells veggie at the pasar malam. It was a jar of almond cookies. Several days later, hubs bought several jars of cookies from his supplier (pumpkin seeds, mixed nuts and double chocolate). Boy,…
Princess Treatment
Since birth, Baby has been treated like a princess. Why? One, she’s the baby of the family. Two, we have to shower her with more love and TLC because of the frequent UTIs and pain that she had gone through. We love her even more after seeing what she had gone through during her 3-week ordeal in…

Outing At KL Times Square
Last Saturday, hubs brought us to Times Square as my parents from Ipoh were here and they have never been to Times Square. We left the house at around 11am and left Times Square at around 4ish pm. It was a day filled with endless fun and thrill for the gals. They had so much fun that they did not…
Baby C’s First Wedding Dinner Experience
Scrumptious Hawkers’ Food
2 Sundays ago, we had some scrumptious hawkers’ food from Paramount O&S coffee shop (take-out). I’ve always wanted to eat at O&S coffee shop but with 3 young kids, the idea of sweating it out while digging into the food at a sardine-packed restaurant with dirty loos always turn the idea off me. So whenever I crave for the hawkers’ food (especially…

Water Guzzler
Baby can guzzle down water from her sippy cup pretty easily. She likes it even more if she is given water from our cup or from our tumbler. Here, she’s drinking water from my tumbler. She even knows how to tilt the tumbler gently so that the water will not come gushing down on her. …

She’s Afraid Of No Chillies
My 2 older gals love nasi lemak, Indian food or anything that is spicy. When they were younger, they could not stomach spicy stuff but as they grow older, their palate evolved and now, spicy food spice up their mood and appetite! This bowl of Nyonya nasi lemak (minus the sambal which I find was too…
Roasted Pork Ribs-Abalone-Chicken-Dried Oyster Yummylicious Porridge
My girls don’t really fancy porridge, unless the porridge is cooked with tons of ingredients and is full of flavor and tasty like this one: Porridge with roasted pork ribs, abalone, chicken (marinated with sesame seed oil and sea salt) and dried oysters. Even Baby who dislikes porridge and mushy stuff loved this porridge and whacked…
Bye-Bye Highchair, Welcome Booster Chair
Last week, Baby finally ditched her Safe n Sound highchair (which she had been sitting for almost 19 months) and graduated to a booster seat, which Alycia jie jie once sat on. Aitelyu, she was beaming with pride and joy seating on the booster seat, together with us at the dining table. It’s like an indication that she’s…
Deep Freezing Fried Vermicelli
I always cook large portions of spaghetti and pasta and deep freeze them for Baby. The other day I cooked a big pot of fried vermicelli and decided to try deep freezing them. I had never before tried deep freezing fried vermicelli and I am glad that I experimented doing so, as the defrosted and…
