FollowI have been busy the past week – with work and house chores. As Alycia can only use one hand temporarily, I have to do almost everything for her, from prepping her food to washing all her dishes, washing her water bottle and filling up water for her, cut her fruits, do her laundry, and…

1 November 2023 ~Tuesday Meals
Today is the first day of the second last month of 2023! Soon we’ll be seeing Christmas decor in the shopping malls. It’s scary to see how fast time is flying by. And before we even have time to recoup from our Christmas shopping spending, then comes Chinese New Year, another very expensive festival ?.…

A Relaxing Meal Week
This week was a pleasant departure from the usual kitchen duties as I savored a variety of delightful dishes without having to slog in the kitchen. With food from hubby’s kitchen gracing our table almost every day, the burden of cooking was significantly lightened. In addition, Sherilyn, was home for a few days as her…

The Day Before I Leave For Ipoh
Though it’s the school holidays, it doesn’t feel like a holiday for me as I still have school runs to do. I still wake up at 6.15 a.m. and have to be out of the house by 8.30 a.m. Sherilyn has athletics training in school every morning throughout the holiday week, for the upcoming MSSKL…
Same Dish, Four Meals Consecutively
Before the mil left for Ipoh last Sunday during the Hari Raya holidays, she cooked a huge pot of brinjal with minced meat. The brinjals were from hubby’s central kitchen as he cleared his fridge. He usually clears the fridges at his kitchen when there’s a long break. The portion of braised brinjal with minced…
