Another Hectic Day Today

Today is going to be another stressed-to-the-max and hectic day for me. My main supplier is delivering my batch of stock to me. I am also expecting any parcel from one of my kids apparel suppliers. I have over 100 pieces of clothes to sort out in the evening, which will last until mid night….

Lovely Visitors

I had some lovely visitors over at my place last Saturday. Annie and her twin boys, Elaine Tan and her cute Amber and Barb and her bubbly Ashley popped by. Elaine and Annie were here to collect their loot from me and ordered some more 😀 It wasn’t easy getting 7 kiddos to sit still and…

10 Products That You Should Buy Generic

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of PBM Products. All opinions are 100% mine. I am a cheapie when it comes to buying groceries. I love going to hypermarkets like Tesco and Carrefour to pick up my stuff. I find that their store brand of pantry staples pretty good. I especially…

Lunch At TGIF @ Mid Valley Megamall

We were at TGIF @ Mid Valley Megamall last Sunday. Though there were not many patrons, we waited for almost half an hour before food was finally served.  Hubs and Alycia, the 2 Worldcup fans watched football on the wall-mounted TVs.  We were quite disappointed with the taste of the food. Hubs said that the food served…

My little Scavenger

These days, I have to be very, very careful what I put on the dining table or on the kitchen counter top. Must make sure nothing non-edible or sharp are on the tables.  Baby’s eyes are super sharp, always on the look-out for forbidden food and stuff. Each time we walk away, this scavenger and opportunist will pounce…

Durians For Dinner And Breakfast

My 2nd sil from Hong Kong was here in KL recently. She, like anyone of us in the family is a big fan of durians. Everyone in our family loves durians, even Baby. We had a durian party for dinner when she was here and spent a few hundred bucks on premium durians!  Our favorite…

My Homecooked Dishes

My mil has been away in HK for almost a month now…. and yes, I managed to dish up healthy and tasty dishes for my kiddos. Here are some of my ‘sau sai’ (culinary skill)… Stir fried fresh udon noodles with purple cabbage, chicken meat, garlic and onions.  There are 2 types of udon noodles…

Math Is All About Practice

I try to ensure that Alycia and Sherilyn practice solving Math equations at least 3 times in a week. This is in addition to their school Math homework. I think anyone can be a Math wiz if he/she keeps practising it. Alycia in full concentration… The Math questions that I set for her. Do you…

Her Wish Is His Command

Last Sunday we had a shopping trip at Mid Valley Megamall. Just as we were leaving the house, Sherilyn decided to wear her Princess clogs to match her dress. Knowing very well that this pair of clogs would cause painful blisters to pop up on her toes, she went ahead to wear the clogs despite…

Why You Hit Me… I Am Your Baby Sister!

During a fight between rascal #2 and #3 just now, rascal #2 hit #3.   And rascal #3 gave me a big surprise when she said this to her jie jie : “hey….why you hit me?  I am your baby sister!”  Baby must have heard me saying this to her 2 jie jies every now and then : “don’t let your…

Ridiculous Hair Sense

Sherilyn my #2 is very fastidious when it comes to her hair. Being a princess wannabe, she wants her hair long, very very long up to her waist but no way am I going to let her keep that long. It’s crazy to have a child’s hair kept that long when she doesn’t know how…

“Ambil Pepper Kakak, Cheh Cheh Suck Thumb”

At 5 years 5 months, Sherilyn is still a thumb sucker.  She sucks her thumb when she’s sleepy, bored and when she’s in front of the tellie.  Each time we see her happily sucking her thumb away, we will reprimand her but she couldn’t be bothered, sigh!!   Recently, my mil would threaten to put pepper…

Baby Loves Swimming

I cannot tell you how much Baby loves swimming. Each time she sees her 2 jie jies swim at the pool, she will run to the drawer and pull out her jie jies’ old swim suits and put it on herself. Then she will plead with us to bring her along. But I am not…

Spoil Rotten By Daddy

I wonder whether all kids born in the middle are harder to handle and have what people call the ‘middle child syndrome’. I am facing a very tough time handling my #2. She is a very demanding child, very whiny, very disobedient, can be very daring and rebellious and she cries every single day. She’s…

Our Simple Homecooked Dinner

Ever since my mil has gone to HK, our meals are pretty simple and easy to cook. I normally cook 2 dishes and there is always a soup. At least twice a week, I will either fry noodles, fry rice, cook spaghetti / pasta or cook porridge. I only cook once in the afternoon and then…

A Day With Celebrities

Today we had lunch with our old friend, Alan Yun at Imbi Palace. Alan is a model, commercials actor and now a movie star. We have known him since he was a school boy and he’s like our little brother. The 3 girls, hubby and I with Alan Yun. On Alan’s right is Emily (model &…
