FollowOn Saturday, we bought more CNY cookies and snacks from our neighborhood road-side stall vendors: Deep fried arrowroot chips (RM13), ‘bee hives’ (RM18, this is by far the best ‘bee hives’ biscuit I’ve ever tasted. It’s light, not oily at all and not too sweet), peanut-sesame seed candies (RM12), roasted almonds in shell (RM18). This morning when…

Our 2010 New Year’s Eve Celebration
We had a very sumptuous BBQ dinner at the poolside of our condo with some close friends last night. Daddy bought balloons, party hats and party whistles for the kids… My plate of Wagyu beef and saba fish… There were lots of delectable grub ranging from Wagyu beef, saba (mackeral) fish, sausages to fettuccine, spaghetti, grilled…
A Very Early Father’s Day Celebration
Since we were all in Ipoh this week, hubby and I planned a very advanced Father’s Day celebration for my dad. On Wednesday, hubby brought us to Moven Peak for a very sumptuous and enjoyable eat-all-you-can steamboat which was priced very reasonably. Initially, we could not decide whether to go to Mun Choong Chinese Restaurant…
My Days In The Hospital
Counting back today, I realized that Baby C, my maid and I had stayed in the hospital for 25 days, which is almost one whole freaking long month of being cooped up in a cold air-conditioned room of the pediatric ward…. 25 freaking long days of not being able to feel the sun or breathe…
How We Celebrated Baby C’s Birthday
You know what? I’m suffering from insomnia now. You must be thinking how a severely sleep-deprived mommy like me would suffer from insomnia, right? Well, I know I am exhausted and sleepy but darn the Chinese tea that I kept drinking over dinner at the restaurant just now. My body is really sensitive to the…

Another Eventful Valentine’s Day This Year
It was yet another eventful Valentine’s Day for us this year. It was really eventful and unforgettable for us last year as we spent our evening at the ER of the hospital with Sherilyn. Alycia and Sherilyn refused to take their afternoon nap yesterday. By dinner time, they were both drained out and had exhausted…

Alycia’s 5th Birthday
Alycia turned 5 years old yesterday. Our initial plan was to have a pool-side birthday party but daddy has been super busy with his work lately. Daddy asked her to choose a venue to celebrate her birthday and she chosed Lemon Garden @ Shangri-La Hotel. And so Shangri-La Hotel it was that we went to…
Happy Birthday Mummy
Daddy brought us for dinner at the Japanese restaurant at PJ Hilton last night as it was mummy’s birthday. After dinner, we came home to sing happy birthday to mummy, blew the candles and cut the cake. Though it was mummy’s birthday, we stole her thunder and we treated it like it was our birthday…. as usual. Daddy bought mummy a…
Sherilyn’s 3rd Birthday Dinner
We had wanted a very simple birthday dinner for Sherilyn’s 3rd birthday as I didn’t have the energy and mood to throw her a party and to entertain friends. Already in my 3rd trimester, I’ve been feeling really tired and sleepy these days, so a dinner in a restaurant would be the easiest. Initially, we wanted…
A Not-So-Happy Valentine’s Day
Yesterday’s Val’s Day was really eventful and heartbreaking for me for Sherilyn broke her forehead. Alycia and Sherilyn had been waiting for daddy to come home to cut the Val’s Day cake and were reluctant to take their baths. They waited until 9:30pm and when daddy was outside the gate, they were so happy…
Happy Valentine’s Day
Happy Birthday Daddy
After a fine Italian dinner at Villa Danieli @ Sheraton Imperial Hotel last week, we got home to sing ‘happy birthday’ to daddy. We got this cheese cake on the house from the hotel as members are entitled to a free cake once a year. December is always a month full of celebrations and the…
A Memorable New Year’s Eve
Picture taken outside Pavillion. We had a real enjoyable New Year’s Eve yesterday. Though there was a slight hiccup initially when the Sheraton Imperial Hotel told us that there was no room for us as they had gotten the check-in dates mixed up, we finally managed to get our room after hubby called the Starwood Privilege club to complain. My maid…
