FollowA health freak mom will raise health freak kids, naturally. See how rascal #2 prepared her sandwich… She slathered a thick layer of homemade pandan kaya on a slice of homemade wholemeal bread and decorated it with 1/2 slice of cheese and tossed in some organic pumpkin seeds and organic walnut…. unroasted and unsalted nuts…

Little Fashionista
The little fashionista in her new girly GAP denim jacket from my online store. Stylo moe? She’s such a vain pot, changing cardigans and jackets every 2 days! Sometimes I disallow her as those thick jackets take days to dry after each wash in the machine but she will secretly sneak it into her bag!…
Savings For The Kids’ Tertiary Education
Sherilyn is now into Grade 2 of the Royal Academy of Dance for ballet. When she first attended ballet lessons, we paid only about RM70 for a once weekly lesson. Then, a few months before the exam, the teacher increased the lessons to twice weekly and the fees was doubled too. Now that she is…
Quirky Kids
I’ll bet no one has ever thought of drinking soup and the gooey essence inside the pig’s bone marrow with a straw! I’ll just suck it out with my mouth but my artsy fartsy rascal #2 had a better idea! Have I told you before that this rascal also enjoys eating porridge through a straw…
My Little Social Butterfly’s Saturday
Hectic Life For A 7-Year Old
Wednesdays are always very hectic for Sherilyn. By the time she reaches home from school, it is already way past 2pm. After lunch, shower and lots of dilly dallying (with non-stop naggings from my mil and me for her to hurry up), it is already 4pm. By 5:30pm, she must eat something light for dinner…
Out Of Her Dilly Dallying Habit Now!
For the past 1 week, rascal #2 has been getting herself ready for school pretty early. Her daily morning daydreaming and dilly dallying have been reduced significantly and I do not need to help wash her up, dress her up or to comb her hair every morning anymore!! And the source of what motivates her…
Of Water Color Painting
Sherilyn has been struggling to do her Art homework, especially with water color painting ever since she entered P1. According to Sherilyn and Alycia, the Art teacher did not show them the proper way of doing water color painting, i.e. how much paint to use, how much water is needed to dilute the paint, how…
Sherilyn’s Grade 1 Ballet Exam – 2nd Trial
We dedicated half our Saturday yesterday to Sherilyn and accompanied her to the ballet studio for the 2nd trial of her Grade 1 ballet exam. The studio was pretty far from where we stay and the journey itself clocked up to almost an hour, both ways. My childhood friend SF and her daughter Mel car…

Never-ending List of Worries
Yesterday was the first day that Alycia had to stay back after school for compulsory extra curricular activities. Ever since the incident last year where the van driver left her out in school and told me that she did not know where she was upon reaching our condo (GOSH, I almost fainted!!), I have this…

Bento Set For A Princess Wannabe
Simple meals can be made to look really appetizing and enticing if you do some ‘touch up’ or ‘make up’ to it, like placing the food in nice bowls, plates and decorating the food. My princess wannabe is one such aesthetic fella. She likes food decorated tastefully and presented to her, like it was fit…
