I got my second booster shot on Wednesday, 27 July 2022 at a clinic in our hood. Though the Government recently announced that the second booster shot is only available for individuals aged 50 years and above, as well as for anyone with comorbidities, funnily though, I still managed to secure an appointment to get…

Our Meals
We hardly cook elaborate meals these days. Ever since Maria stopped coming three weeks ago because of bad morning sickness (she’s expecting her 2nd baby), we have not had any other helper coming in. It’s manageable without a helper if we don’t cook. We get takeout or order from Shopee Food on most days and…

Today has been another hectic day for hubs and his kitchen crew. They prepped over 300 burgers today and will be whipping up 300 more tomorrow for a client’s 2-day event. In addition, they cooked sambal, curries, bolognese sauce, deep fried potato wedges and marinated a whole lamb for BBQ tonight. I brought Cass to…
How Celebrities Get Their Hour Glass Silhouette

Alycia’s Covid Infection: Day 4 – 7
By day 4, most of the classic symptoms of Covid crept out — sore throat and high fever. On day 5, the fever subsided but Alycia started to have cough and a bad throat. Since Alycia had a zero-symptom Covid infection three months ago and is now infected again, I think she got infected by…
Alycia’s Covid Infection – Day 2 & 3
6 July 2022 – The Covid self-test kit showed a faint line on the T window. Alycia is still feeling well and chirpy. The first symptom however crept out late in the evening with a scratchy throat. Alycia asked for lozenges and I gave her my honey and propolis lozenges that I kept in the…
Covid Positive Again!
It’s never anything good to receive a phone call from my daughters while they’re in school or campus. Last week Sherilyn called me from school to inform me that her newly pierced ear was bleeding as she asked her friend to remove the earring from the ear but the earring almost got stuck in her…
Haru Meets Her Twin Brother
Haru has a twin brother that we fostered together in February 2021. It’s a ginger cat and we named him Ginger. Two weeks later we gave Ginger to Alycia’s best friend who renamed Ginger to Moon Moon. We’ve always wanted to bring Haru to meet her twin brother before Alycia’s bff goes overseas for further…
