This item can be her bear bear, Elmo soft toy, Minnie Mouse soft toy, Hello Kitty purse, a book and yesterday, she brought 2 Mega blocks to…

Sherilyn Finally Eats Unblended Food
Yay! Sherilyn has finally been eating unblended food for the last 3 days. As she has been showing signs for the pass few days that she has had enough of blended food coz whenever my maid fed her blended rice with dishes, she gave an expression as if she wanted to puke and kept saying…
Sherilyn’s Favourite Pyjamas
Never Leave Your Toddler Unattended!
This is a back-dated post and the incident happened a few weeks back. I had just taken my bath and didn’t shut the bathroom door tightly when I went down to the kitchen to get some salt water to gargle for my strep throat. My maid was having her bath downstairs and DH wasn’t home…
I Only Want To Learn Drum and Guitar
Often times, I’d ask Alycia what sort of extra curricular activities she wants to learn. Piano, ballet, swimming, gymnastics, art? Her answer is always “i only want to learn drum and guitar”. Aiyoh…. goodness girl, why drum and guitar of all musical instrument? Learning piano and ballet are fun, mummy also learnt piano and ballet…

Organic wholewheat bread with red bean paste filling. Good source of fibre, iron and protein (red bean), complex carbo and calcium. Hard-boiled Omega eggs with organic soya sauce. Rich in…
Tom Tom The Piper’s Son
Today just before lunch time, I read and sang some nursery rhymes to Sherilyn, my 2.5 yo toddler who LOVES singing and loves me reading through singing to her. I sang her a few nursery rhymes like Baa Baa Black Sheep, Rock A Bye Baby, Little Bo Beep Has Lost Her Sheep, Hey Diddle Diddle…
Hubby’s Car Got Hit
2 nights ago after a game of basketball, DH went for supper with his basketball mates. After supper, as DH was about to make a right turn at a corner, a drunkard hit his new car and the bugger wanted to escape. There were dents and scratches across the left doors. Fortunately DH’s basketball mates…
Hawkers Food
My all-time favourite hawkers food, bought from the pasar malam (night market) a few nights ago: Stuffed fish paste in puffed tofu. This delicacy is high in protein and low in carb, just the perfect food for the Atkin’s Diet follower. Popiah. Not quite an Atkin’s food but I love it anyway. I just eat…
Fun At Westin Hotel
These pictures were taken at the Westin Hotel today where we had buffet lunch. That’s me with Alycia and Sherilyn at the dessert counter. Alycia’s eyes were fixated at the pralines and when I was busy carrying Sherilyn, she managed to stealthily popped a few into her mouth without me noticing. Daddy saw but kept…
The Great Flood… part 2 (Back-dated post)
This pic was taken 2 hours after the flood water came gushing to our neighbourhood from a river. A few hours later, the water level was up to my car window. Neighbours’ cars all submerged in muddy water. This is a back-dated post. When our house was almost destroyed by the great flood last year,…
Cool Gadget For Babies And Adults
My sil recently got a cool gadget for the gals from Hong Kong, but mummy and daddy can also use it. It’s a anti-mosquito device, specially designed for babies. The device operates by emitting ultrasounds within a range of 3 metres which annoy mosquitoes without causing any undesired effect to people or animals. It operates…

Chinese Dumpling
Chinese dumpling bought from the pasar malam (night market). My mil makes one of the tastiest ‘hum yoke choong’ or chinese dumpling. Her dumplings are bursting with ‘hum’ or fillings inside the glutinous rice. She stuffs her dumplings with generous amount of pork meat, chinese chestnuts, beans, salted egg yolks, mushrooms and a special dried…
Sherilyn and Her Nappy… part 2
Earlier, I had written about how obsessed Sherilyn was with her nappy. It’s been more than 2 weeks now and Sherilyn’s obsession with her nappies is becoming more intense now and she has even rubbed off the obsession to her cheh cheh. This morning, both gals wore a nappy cape round their shoulders and ran…
What Keeps Me Going?
Many of my friends have been asking me what motivates me to rise so early every morning to work-out. For those who have missed reading my previous posts, I wake up at 6:45am every morning to work-out. When I was still working, I used to rise at 5:45am to jog. Well, here are my top…
