Sherilyn and Baby had a whale of their time constructing a house for the first time in their lives… and it’s a house that is totally edible, just like Hanzel and Gratel ! We were at Bangsar Village today and hubs saw this ‘Decorate A Gingerbreadhouse Charity For Kids’ activity on the first floor, just…

Caught Red Handed By My 3.5YO Girl!
I had finished the last drop of baby oil but was feeling too lazy to find a plastic bag to store the empty bottle, to be placed in the recycling bin in the evening. So I conveniently threw it into the bin where we throw general rubbish. Before I dumped the empty oil bottle into…
X’mas Colors Inspired Straws
My baby girl now looks forward to milky time coz she gets to choose her straw. Her daddy, who is an Ikea fan-see bought a few packs of straws with X’mas inspired colors for his catering functions and I hijacked one pack for my straw-craze baby girl, who uses up to 3 straws in a…
Our Saturday – 26 November 2011
We spent the whole morning and afternoon at Scott Garden today. First to attend a friend’s daughter’s 1st birthday party, then for shopping at TESCO and then for the girls to play at the theme park and have electronic car and bike rides. The moment I stepped into Tom, Dick and Harry restaurant where the…
Internet’s Back !
My bad – I under estimated TM’s efficiency. This time, they managed to deliver way ahead of the estimated completion time. Thank you TM and it is hoped that you will continue to keep to your promise and deliver uninterrupted broadband internet at all times. One thing about crisis is that I almost never fail…
No Internet For 3 Days!
And today is only the first day. I just have a hunch that it will drag on even longer as I have totally no confidence in TM after experiencing 8 days of being deprieved of internet, with lots of ‘tai chi’ from their staff and empty promises several years ago. The problem this time is…

Happy Sunday!
I had a very satisfied Sunday today! First we had brunch at Han Room @ Gardens, Mid Valley. While the hubs, his 2 older angels, his mum and some friends had coffee and cakes at Alexis Bistro, I zoomed off for some retail therapy with Baby and the helper. I bought myself a belt, a…
Self Learning From The iPad2
My little cili padi learns the ABCs and 123s from the iPad2 regularly. Before she is allowed to play other games, she knows she has to first go through her ‘online learning’. Take your love of working with children to a career in early childhood development with www.onlineclasses.net. Yesterday she went an extra mile. At…
Some Updates
I better update my blog before my readers think that something had happened to me or that I have abandoned this blog for good LOL! As usual, life has been on the fast lane for me at gear 5. My hands are really full with my online store and 3 rascals. I shudder to think…
Reading Frenzy
My soon-to-be 8YO girl has been in a reading frenzy for the past few months. As a reward to her for doing well in her recent final exam, we brought her to MPH to shop for some books last night. That was a promise from me to her before the exam. And a promise is…
Of School Exams and Placement In Class
My almost 8-year old came home from school today and gladly announced that her position is the 5th in class. To add icing to the cake, she also told me that she, together with a few of her classmates will be going to the top class next year! When I heard that, I had mixed…
A Bento Set A Day
Here’s yet another bento set lunch for my girls prepared this week, something that’s quick to prepare and does not need elaborate preparation and cooking. For busy working mums like me, you can cook a big portion and deep freeze in smaller portions for future consumption. The Terriyaki chicken strips go well along with rice…
Love Letter From An 8-Year Old Boy
I got a major shock of my life today when I read a note, written in brown magic color ink which I had snatched away from my almost 8-YO girl today. It was a love note written by one Danny from her class, which goes: Dear Sweetie Pie I love you. When I grow up…
Munching My Blues and Stress Away
Nothing melts away the blues and stress more effectively than munching on some chips, ice cream and chocolates. When I’m under stress, both from the rascals and work, I munch the blues away. There are some more stashed in the freezer and fridge muahahahaha!! Here’s a drawer filled with my favorite not-so-unhealthy snacks ( I…
Bye Bye Angry Birds, Welcome Smurfs and Animal Kaiser!
I think I can say good bye to Angry Birds and start to welcome yet another craze in my home. Just like any other kids, my girls are riding in the Smurfs band wagon now but their obsession is not as bad as Angry Birds. Good ol’ sporting granny has bought them each a nice…
