I’m a 50+ mum of three grown daughters, now back in my beautiful hometown of Ipoh and slowly rebuilding a quieter, gentler life. After years between Ipoh and KL, I’ve returned to my roots to spend time with my parents in their 80s, my soul-healing cat, and the simple things that matter most. I blog and vlog about family life, home cooking, Ipoh food finds, and everyday moments that make this season of life meaningful.
I do product reviews and accept sponsored posts on my blogs.
I hope you'll enjoy reading my blog as much as I enjoy sharing my day-to-day adventures and mostly boring ranting :P
Thanks for being here. 💛

Cassandra’s 2nd Birthday
Posted on
Two days before her 2nd birthday, Baby kept asking me this “where’s my birthday cake?” On her birthday yesterday, she woke up in the morning to everyone giving her hugs, kisses and lots of birthday wishes and happy birthday songs. After her shower, she did not even want to wear the clothes she normally wears at…

What Soap Do You Use On Your Kids?
Posted on
I used to buy Johnson & Johnson, Anakku and Pureen’s range of body shampoo for my kids. Ever since my 2 older girls are capable of bathing themselves without any adult supervision, they have been using a LOT of body shampoo. They can even finish a bottle of 750ml body shampoo in less than 2 weeks,…
Dancing Girls

2 Sundays ago, Sherilyn went for her mock ballet exam. On that Sunday, we were earlier invited by Jasmine to attend Shan Rae’s 2nd birthday party. Too bad we could not attend. Shan Rae and Baby C share the same birthdate, i.e. 9 April 2008! It’s quite rare to find someone who shares the same…
Juggler Of Tasks

On a school-going day, this is a typical scene in the afternoon: I will be spoon-feeding Baby formula milk at the couch with the TV switched on. Unfortunately, I can only get Baby to sit still and drink her milk when the TV is switched on with either Barney or High 5 played. Sometimes, Alycia…

Whenever my mil wants to clear off all the perishables in our 2 huge refrigerators, we will have like 5-6 dishes for dinner. We had 6 dishes and 1 soup of the day for dinner several nights ago: Clockwise : pork ribs from the pot of watercrest soup (to dip with premium soy sauce), braised duck…
Ice-cream Girls
Posted on
All 3 of my girls are ice-cream lovers. In fact everyone in our family loves ice-creams. Who doesn’t like ice-cream anyway, right? During the height of Baby’s UTI infections when she was less than a year old and had to be on oral antibiotics everyday, she would not even want to go near ice-creams. I…
Brunch At Sri Neela’s Indian Restaurant @ Taman Desa, Old Klang Road
Posted on
My 2 older girls love Indian food and anything that is spicy. However we don’t always eat spicy food for fear of ‘heatiness’. My 2 girls have inherited their daddy’s DNA; they get throat infections and ‘heatiness’ very easily. They were worse when they were younger. Now that they are a little grown up and their…

Daddy’s DNA
Posted on
When it comes to completing her homework, Rascal #2 is a real slacker and I’d rate her 1/10. I am already freaking worried how she’ll cope in a Chinese primary school in 2 years’ time…. worried about how she’s going to wake up at 6am and get ready by 6:40am, worried about the homework load, discipline…
Hormel Chili and Dinty Moore
Posted on
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Hormel Foods. All opinions are 100% mine. For weeks, the girls have been pestering their daddy to bring them to Wendy’s for lunch. Their wishes were granted when daddy brought us all to Wendy’s several weeks back. When I tasted Wendy’s beef chili with…
