Our Merdeka Day Holiday – 31 Aug 2016
We had brunch with the girls’ grand aunt and visiting grand uncle from New Zealand at Han Room today. As we were alighting from the car at the car park of Gardens Mall, I had a major heart attack. Alycia who was in the midst of getting down from the car, missed a step and fell onto…
Breakfast – 10 August 2016
Fruits & Veggies
I ensure that the girls get their daily dose of fresh fruits and vegetables everyday. They have either fruit smoothie or fresh whole fruit everyday. Yesterday I made them apple + orange + pineapple + chia seeds smoothie. Today is papaya + sliced red capsicum. Alycia has no issues eating capsicums. She grazes veggies…
Start Of School Holidays
School is out, YIPEE!! Each morning as I drag myself out from bed at 4:45am feeling woozy as a result of insufficient sleep (less than 6 hours), I would wish that it’s actually a holiday that I have forgotten about and I could plonk myself back onto my cool and comfy bed. What I am…
Dark Chocolate Muesli With Skinny Yoghurt
Today I had quite a heavy breakfast of bitter gourd and pork yee mee. I also pecked at hubby’s char siew and roast chicken. Being a flexitarian, my meat quota for today is almost met and I know the hubby is going to bring us to devour on a carnivorous dinner tonight. If I bust my…
Capsicum Salad
This is my salad of the day for today: Capsicum (green, red and dark purple), kyuri, baby radish, toasted walnut, toasted almond, Furikake, Nori and a drizzle of roasted sesame dressing. This capsicum salad is really yummy and refreshing. I love the crunchiness and freshness of the sweet capsicum. I especially love the vibrant colors…

Health Freak Mommy’s Meals – 24 February 2016
My breakfast yesterday morning… Skinny sugar-free, preservative-free and additives-free yoghurt with Pic’s sugar-free cashew butter, toasted pumpkin seeds, organic chia seeds, raw walnuts, blanched skinless almonds, drizzle of maple syrup and a small handful of coconut cookies. I am surprised that Cass loves Farm Fresh’s sugar-free yoghurt, which is a tad sour and light. She…
Genetic High Cholesterol
Ok, I have genetic high cholesterol 🙁 My doctors told me that it would be really, really difficult to bring down the cholesterol reading however hard I alter my diet and exercise. I could be stick thin and eat nothing but green veggies and exercise 2 hours a day, but my cholesterol reading would still be…
Wednesday Breakfast – 27 January 2016
My breakfast today to fuel me for a long, long and tiring day… Half an avocado with a drizzle of maple syrup. This is so refreshing and delicious. A friend taught me to eat avocado this way to mask the slightly bitter taste of avocado. You gotta try this way of eating your avocados.…
Short Cuts Around The Kitchen
Humble Food Again
After a week of super rich food indulgence in Hong Kong, it’s time to start eating ‘humble’ food again 😀 My tummy and innards cannot stomach such meat-intense and high caloric meals everyday. While we were in Hong Kong, we had a snake meal on the second day, where almost every dish that was served…
