FollowHubs told me that we should avoid going to Mid Valley Megamall on the first Sunday of the 2-week long school holidays. True to his forecast, the roads to Mid Valley Megamall on both ways were clogged up with vehicles. We made a quick spin to Bangsar Village and thankfully the roads were still…

The Fear Of Getting Cancer
This morning, I went to the hospital to do the remaining medical tests — blood test, urine test and ECG. I was in a rush yesterday and only managed to have the pap smear, Mammogram and chest x-ray done. The moment I reached the hospital this morning, the nurse told me that my gynae has…
Yearly Pap Smear And Full Medical Test
Yesterday I finally moved my arse and dragged myself to the hospital to do my slightly overdue pap smear and ultrasound scan of my breasts and reproductive organs. In addition, for the first time in my life, I asked for a full medical test, consisting of a Mammogram, chest x-ray, blood tests, cancer marker test,…
Grilled Chicken With Japanese Potato Salad
Remember my post dated 10 May 2015 where I wrote about our Mother’s Day dinner at Kozaku-Ai Modern Teppanyaki Kitchen? I told my girls that I would try to dish out the fried chicken with Japanese potato salad dish for them soon. And I did! It sure was a big hit with the girls! My…
Super Sprout Natural Food Powder – Share&Win Contest and Promo Code!
One of the things that makes me really happy is healthy food. I love being surrounded with all things healthy and colorful. Thus, I will go gaga inside an organic shop or at the fruits and veggie section of a supermarket. I love dishing out colorful meals and smoothies for my kids too. 🙂 Yesterday,…
Cool As Cucumber
It’s already 9:30pm and the big girl started to work on her school Kemahiran Hidup (Living Skills) project. She whipped out a screwdriver from daddy’s tool box and began to assemble the project item – which is a wooden tool box. Then, she painted the tool box. I wanted to strangle her for doing her…
Frying Fish – Successful Attempt!
Who hates frying fish? I.hate.frying.fish! I hate the oil splatters on my skin. You can never miss at least a drop or two of hot oil splatters on your skin when you slide the fish into the wok unless you wear gloves and a full body protective suit. Once, the oil splattered onto my eye lid…
Google Translate Mobile App For Education – Very Useful For Banana Parents!
Today I discovered something very, very useful for banana mummies like me who always try in vain to guide their kids in Chinese. For someone with very, very limited knowledge of the Chinese language, I get really, really frustrated when my girls run to me and cry for help on days when the Mandarin tutor…
What Makes Her Happy
What makes Cass really happy when she comes home from school is finding her favorite food sitting inside the fridge waiting for her to dig into 😀 She would scream out in excitement and without even washing her hands, she would tear open the ‘treasure’ and lay her dirty hands on them, much to my hollering…
Hydrogen Water and Carotenoids For Fever
On Friday I was still well, despite feeling a tad exhausted. For the past 1 month, sleep-ins on Saturdays have been a luxury of the past. Alycia has to attend compulsory tuition in school on Saturdays in preparation for the UPSR exam in September. So my Saturdays are just like any other school-going day, with…
My Thursday – 14 May 2015
I’ve been feeling draggy, really bushed and shitty since yesterday, no thanks to PMS. This morning, I downed 2 packs of Izumio hydrogen water and it has never once let me down. I felt like a wilting flower restored back to life after the 2 packs of Izumio. The Japanese man who came up with this…
Home-cooked Meals For Recess
This is an almost nightly affair for the drama queen. Before she eats her dinner, she would ask me if there is enough food for her to bring to school for recess the next day. If yes, she would quickly keep some in a stainless steel container with cover. The next morning, I would wake…
Kazoku-Ai Modern Teppanyaki Kitchen @ 3rd Mile Square, Old Klang Road
This is yet another food post, sorry, can’t help it 😀 In our household, celebration and good food go hand in hand… coz I’ve got a foodie hubby who is in the food line and we’ve produced kids who obviously appreciate and love good food too! Dinner on Mother’s Day Eve yesterday was celebrated…
Grilled Aromatic Lemon Grass Chicken Thighs
Here’s another sweat-free dinner I whipped up last night — grilled lemon grass chicken and blanched organic siew bok choy. I love my oven, it’s better than an air-fryer (as it’s huge vs the air-fryer) and I can save so much time by replacing deep-frying and pan-frying with grilling in the oven. And my persnickety…
Down With Flu – Super Lutein To The Rescue
I have been down with the sniffles for the past two days (see, month of May is really jinx!), no thanks to the girl who brought back the woeful virus from school and spread it to everyone! Yesterday I felt so bushed and lackluster that I popped 6 caps of Super Lutein (double my usual…
Lunch – 5 May 2015
These days, I am back to preparing home-cooked meals twice a day – for lunch and dinner. Everyday, I waste a little time thinking of what to take-away for lunch. I am sick of eating char siew and roast chicken rice and noodles are crap, I mean carbs. Economy rice dishes (chap fan) are too…
