Good-Bye Teacher Kaitlyn

Cass’ piano teacher is a 19-year old girl who teaches part-time while studying in college.  Although teacher Kaitlyn is very strict and has a tendency to blow up if her students produce crap during lessons, Cass still loves her. Yes, there had been many times when Cass was chided when she got on teacher Kaitlyn’s nerves….

My Saturday – 24 Sept 2016

After dropping Drama Queen at the tuition centre this morning, Cass and I had breakfast at our favorite supermarket to try out the food at a new stall that popped up just a few days ago.  It sells curry noodles, porridge, yam cake, tong sui, chicken balls and some deep fried delights. Cass had porridge…

Save Money On Nail Spa With Groupon Coupons

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine. With half my right toe nail yanked off yesterday, I have no more excuses to procrastinate making a trip to the nail salon.  My left toe nail still has the Hello Kitty nail art intact and the right one is gone. It looks awfully awful now!!…

The Mugger Was Caught!

Remember my post on the harrowing snatch theft incident that Drama Queen and I witnessed where we helped the victim? That happened last Wednesday. It is indeed fated that the victim and us have to cross paths twice in a short span of just 7 days. While grocery shopping at the supermarket this morning, we…

Holiday Activity – Cookie Baking

This idea was entirely Drama Queen’s.  And I entrusted her with the entire task as I knew she could handle it pretty well.  Except for helping her with the oven and checking on the doneness of the cookies, Drama Queen enlisted the help of her 2 side-kicks on this holiday cookie baking project today. She…

School holiday means catching up on my beauty sleep, respite from school books, breather from everything academic and eating out. I’ve been sleeping in till 7:30 am (not so lucky to sleep in way past 8 am though) since Saturday and getting 8 hours of sleep has reinvigorated my mind, body and soul!  Lunches and dinners…

Home-Cooked Dinner – 8 Sept 2016

Pan-fried red snapper fish and mackerel fish marinated with turmeric powder, Baba’s fish curry powder, organic shoyu and ground black pepper. I have tried frying fish using steel wok, non-stick granite pan, non-stick Teflon pan and Khind stir-fryer. My verdict is – the Khind electric stir-fryer gives the best outcome.  For the 3 slices of…
