FollowI have been feeling under the weather since yesterday. Yesterday my throat and congested nose were really bad. Today, the congestion on my nose has eased a little but still unable to breathe through my nose — and I hate breathing through my mouth. I could hardly smell and taste my food. No appetite to…

Guess Who We Chanced Upon Today?
While shopping for shoes and handbag at Aldo boutique @ Bangsar Village today, I bumped into someone with such a familiar face. At a brief glance, I thought she looked like Chui Ling but I wasn’t too sure as she was so dressed down and without any make-up. But when she smiled, aha, her trademark…

Finding A Home Tutor At Your Finger Tips
Remember a few months back I wrote about this great online home tuition website in Malaysia? And you know what? I actually found a tuition teacher from this website to tutor BM to my 2 older girls! Ah, the amazing power of the internet! You can buy and get everything and anything from the internet! …

Olive Baby Products From New Zealand
I received a box of surprise from the courier delivery guy last week. I was not expecting any stock from my suppliers, so what could be inside the box?! I could not wait to find out! I quickly ripped open the box and surprise awaited me… I saw a couple of exclusive Olive Baby products!…
Red Wine, Garlic and Onion Roast Chicken for Dinner – 21 Jan 2013
Here’s the fuss-free, sweat-free and easy to prep dinner that I dished out yesterday. Roast chicken drumsticks (chopped into bite size) with garlic, onion, tomato and red bell pepper. In the morning, I marinated the chicken with HP sauce, soy sauce, Manuka honey, pepper, mixed herbs and some left over red wine in the fridge.…
Lunch Today – 21 Jan 2013
For the kids’ lunch today, I was undecided whether to cook green tea noodles with the new sauce that I had bought from Isetan or mushroom pasta. Since the punnet of button mushrooms had been sitting in the fridge for over 1 week already, I thought I should just use it before they turn black.…
Cassandra’s First Swimming Lesson
At 4 years 9 months, my baby girl finally attended her first swimming lesson. She did pretty well, was very excited and was totally not afraid of the water. She’s a born water baby 🙂 The very first practice that the swimming instructor taught her was to submerge her head in the water in the…
Our Saturday – 19 Jan 2013
There is a carnival organized by our condo committee members today for the residents to mingle with one another. Alycia and Sherilyn took part in the treasure hunt at the big pool just now and as I am typing this post, they are now having a shower before we go down to have a party…
Dinner – 18 Jan 2013
Here’s another 1-plate dish that I dished up for dinner yesterday. Steamed pomfret fish (tau tai chong) with mushrooms and red dates (I always use these 2 ingredients to expel the fishy odor if I steam the fish), tomato, organic Japanese pumpkin wedges and I threw in a piece of lap cheong (Chinese sausage) as…

Easy Peasy One-Pot Homecooked Dish
Here is our dinner for tonight, which I have already prepared at 4:40pm, as rascal #2 has ballet at 6:30pm. For time-challenged WFHMs, there will be lots of one-pot meals without stir-frying, shallow or deep frying. The lesser washing and oil splatters the better… and the food is healthier too. Steamed chicken drumsticks in tong…

I Hate Short Hair!
Cass’ hair had grown pretty long. Since her hair is thick, I find it very troublesome to maintain it as I wash her hair twice a day. So yesterday, I brought her to the hair saloon to have her hair chopped off. The length is now almost touching the shoulder. After the hair cut, Cass…
