FollowToday I had a brief taste of how ‘moments before death’ must have felt. And I can only thank God for saving me. Today is yet another school-going day for Drama Queen and Cass, though it’s a school holiday. The hubs did the first round of school run in the morning. I did the second…

Rosy Cheeks
Last Sunday, while Drama Queen went on a class trip to the National Planetarium and Alycia went on a day-outing with her grandma and a friend, Cass and I stayed home. In the evening, we went jogging around our neighborhood. It’s been a while since we last did this. I had to rummage through my…
Teaching Your Kids Living Skills At Home
Alycia was feeling a tad under the weather yesterday evening. She said she felt very hot inside her body and felt very tired. I touched her body but it didn’t feel that hot. I gave her a packet of Izumio hydrogen water and told her to pop 2 capsules of Super Lutein. Later, I fished…
My Wednesday – 23 Aug 2017
This morning I had an unpleasant encounter at the car park outside some shops. I was there to get some buns for the girls for their recess tomorrow. This particular business centre at my neighborhood is one very busy area. Getting a spot to park is highly unlikely if you are there between 8am through…
Random Matters
Sorry for the lack of updates. Feeling languid today (lack of sleep again) and seemed to have left my mojo some where and still looking for it ?. This morning as I was browsing Facebook, I read with disgust and shock that my friend’s blog was defaced by some Indonesian hackers (see pic below), as counter…
Precious Locks Finally Chopped
16 August 2017: Today in history, my second daughter was willing to have her beloved hair at almost waist length cut short. Everyone was in disbelief when Drama Queen announced last week that she wanted to cut her hair to chin-length to donate it to Locks of Hope. In the past, she would bawl like…
Fruitful Wednesday
Today has been a fruitful day for me. The context of fruitful to me means every item on my Daily To Do list is ticked off and everything goes smoothly without any stumbling block ? After my morning run, I took a quick shower, did a second round of laundry, had a real quick breakfast…
Pan-Fried Soy Sauce Prawns
Today I wanted to teach Cass to be responsible at home by helping to clear and clean the table after lunch. If Alycia and Drama Queen are around, they would be the ones to clear and clean the dining table after every meal. They are normally not around for lunch on school days. After lunch,…
Our Weekend
Pan-Fried Five Spice Powder Chicken Fillet
Now that the mil is back from Hawaii, I feel a little weight taken off my shoulders ? This weight that I am talking about is cooking lunch and dinner. For someone who is not that passionate about cooking, cooking can sometimes be stressful for me. When I had live-in helpers, I liked cooking very much.…
How to Improve Your Smile
Your smile is one of the first features that people see when you meet them for the first time. The quality of your smile can influence your youthfulness and how attractive you appear to other people. If you want to improve your smile and allow it to look beautiful, there are a few important steps…
Making Sure Your Home is Safe Every Day
When you’re raising a family, it’s crucial that your home is a safe place for them at all times. It can be confusing at times, though, when you’re trying to keep track of all of the risks and protect your family from them. No matter how careful you are, mistakes will happen and people will…
Random Matters
I’ve been feeling bleh lately and just don’t really feel like writing or doing anything. It must be caused by the lack of sleep accumulated over the past few weeks. I’ve not had a single day of sleeping in for the past two weeks. And the stress of preparing Cass for her term exam, which…
Grandma’s Back
The girls’ grandma returned from Hawaii yesterday after being away for a month. The girls have been waiting impatiently for the huge box and bag of goodies from Hawaii. The moment grandma entered the house, the 3 super excited girls ripped open the box to check out what goodies were in store… Everyone got what…
