FollowMy desktop computer crashed on Friday when someone turned off the main switch to the computer. I know that shutting down a computer the improper way will cause harm to the computer but I never knew that the problem can be so severe. The CPU has been admitted and I can only get it back…

Savings For My Girls
2 weeks after CNY ended, we removed the cash from all the ang pow packets that the girls had collected to have them banked into their Savings Accounts. Daddy in full concentration counting the cash while Baby in full concentration looks on in awe… The girls collected about RM500+ each and we topped up another…
Money Into The Bin!
There is a big toyogo box in the storeroom which I have been keeping Sherilyn’s unused XXL diapers ever since she stopped wearing diapers to sleep at night over a year ago. The other day, I decided to use them on Baby but upon taking a closer look, I saw yellowish brownish stains all over…

How To Unwrap?
My mil bought some California rolls (aka hand rolls) from Jaya Jusco for the girls for lunch the other day. But when we wanted to eat the rolls, we were stumped. The plastic sheet that was wrapped round the California roll was wrapped in such a complicated way that none of us could solve the ‘puzzle’…
Guess How Much This Chunk Of Siew Yoke Cost Me
I ran past the market-on-van the other morning and this chunk of siew yoke (roast pork belly) hanging on the van caught my eyes. I thought the most it would cost me was RM10 but when the seller told me the price, I almost flipped! Anyway, cost aside, this piece of siew yoke was really…

Guess What This Is
Can anyone guess what these are? I saw these for sale at a mini market near where I stay. These are only available for sale before and during CNY. Some markets in PJ sell them too. Initially I thought they were some cheapskate chocolates made in China. Even at a closer look, they look very much…

Going Back To Ipoh
Organic Soap
When hubby stepped out of the bathroom the other day, he smelled different. He didn’t smell of any of the body shampoos that were in our bathroom. I was too busy to find out from him why he smelled different. Later when I went inside the bathroom, I saw this : For a moment, I didn’t…
Coffee-Maker
My mil is a coffee lover, so much so that she even has a special coffee grinder to grind coffee beans so that she has a cup of very aromatic coffee every morning. This is the coffee-maker / coffee bean grinder Whenever Alycia and Sher see mah mah grinding the coffee beans, they will surely…
Cheap Does Not Mean Cheesy
People always say that cheap things equal cheesy quality but I beg to differ, well, sometimes. Ever since I left the corporate world and lost my financial freedom, I have stopped buying branded stuff. I used to shop till I drop and would buy things for myself and for the girls without any second thoughts,…
Count Our Blessings, Lest We Forget
Each time I am at the pediatric department of Hospital UKM, which is a government hospital, I tell myself that I am really blessed with 3 normal beautiful gals. Though Baby C has a kidney reflux on her right kidney, it is still not as bad as those parents I’d seen at the hospital with…
