The sil and nephew from Hong Kong are here for their yearly holiday in Malaysia. Here’s Cass and her cousin, Ernest. They hit it off really well the first time they met last year and in this picture, they are both fixing a house from Lego’s Friends series. Actually, the first time they met was…
Alycia definitely has her daddy’s artistic DNA. It just comes naturally to her and her passion for drawing is boundless. If I would allow it, she can spend the entire day cooped up in her room drawing and reading. She seems to love drawing mystical objects and creatures as well as caricature. However, she has…
It is not easy to deal with homo sapiens. Each and everyone of them has a different character, weaknesses and strengths. As an online store owner, I have to deal with customers and suppliers everyday. Some of these customers and suppliers are sent from heaven and some are sent from below to haunt me, but…
The MIL made an appointment for the foot reflexologist to come to our place for a 2-hour foot massage session today and this little rascal was given a free half hour trial session of foot massage! We had imagined that she would run away but to our surprise, she sat still throughout the session without…
The MIL made some very delish marmalade jam last week. She followed exactly what the recipe said but reduced the sugar. However, when the marmalade jam cooled down, it thickened so much that it was crystalized! Nonetheless, the half-jam half-molasses was very flavorful and lip-smacking. It tasted very much like the expensive imported orange flavored…
Alycia has been bugging me to fetch her to school and ditch the transporter as Aunty J, the transporter has been late in picking her up for school lately. As she is a school prefect and needs to be in school by 7am for duty everyday, her daily 10-15 minutes late has been drawing queries…
I guess I have to resign to the fact that I just do not have luck with maids, whether full-time live-in maids or part-time maids. Ever since my supposedly permanent part-time maid stopped working for us, I have been searching high and low for part-time maids. I have and am still recruiting maids from road…
Simple things that we normally take for granted or are oblivious to like a clear sky can now make everyone happy! Yup, the haze has finally waned off for the past 2 days and everyone in our country can now breathe with peace of mind without fear of choking in some cancer causing particles. Here…
With 2 days being cooped up at home due to the haze, the girls ingeniously came up with fun activities and games to occupy their time. The night before they resumed going to school, I told them to get ready some face masks. Moments later, I heard giggles and laughter coming from the bedroom. Alycia…
The girls have been getting bored and restless today, which is the second day that they are kept away from school due to the haze. Besides watching TV, playing with the laptop and doing some work that I have given them, they goofed around and played ‘Getting Married’. Alycia : “Sherilyn, do you take Jonathan…
Rascal #2 and #3 were having a tug of war over a handbag accessory that was hanging on my handbag. We were at the Oriental Chinese Restaurant @ Jaya 33, PJ having dim sum for lunch and they were causing a big stink with their whining, screaming, pulling and tugging. Finally, I snatched the handbag…
Cass came home from kindy last week telling me that her teacher had instructed the kids from her 5YO class to practise playing around with Microsoft Paint on the computer! This is what pre-schoolers are taught in this high technology day and age. Now, what did we learn in kindy as 5 year olds back…
