Early Shopping For Cass

Yesterday we went to Mid Valley Megamall for dinner and then brought Cass to shop for her school uniform and school shoes! Yup I know I am a tad early but if I do not shop for the new school stuff now, I am afraid that we won’t have much time. At the start of…

HFM Resuscitated and Alive Again!

I hope you are just as happy and thrilled as I am that you can finally see white and not red in this blog!   Finally…. after 3 days!  Though it is only 3 days, it felt like 3 months to me!   I was on tenterhooks for the period my blogs were dead, feeling…

Halloween-ify Your Photos

Just want to share with you a new photo function  launched by Google Plus a few days ago. Halloween is coming up and you might not feel up to slathering your face with makeup, fake blood, and whatever else comes with Halloween costumes these days. Now you don’t have to because Google has a new…

Our Sunday – 5 Sunday 2014

We had breakfast at Antipodean @ Mid Valley today.  This is Antipodean’s newest outlet in the Klang Valley.  As with their outlet in Bangsar, the one at Mid Valley is just as crowded.  We wanted to have breakfast at this outlet yesterday but the wait list was too long.  We were slightly luckier today and…

S-U-R-P-R-I-S-E!

Don’t worry, you did not enter the wrong blog.  This is Health Freak Mommy and I am spotting a brand new look and color effective 6 September 2014! So why the sudden make-over? No, it is not because I am so free till I have nothing better to do than to play around with blog…

Alycia’s Taylor Swift Red Tour Sneakers

I promised Alycia that if she could maintain her grades and position in her third semester exam, she can have a reward of her choice, within our budget. On Friday when I picked her up after school, she asked me with delight: “mummy, you promised me a reward right?” And she  told me her class…

Black Monday

Black Monday and Monday Blues, that’s how my Monday is today. Damn that alarm clock of mine, that died down on me, it failed to wake me up again!  I always have my mobile phone alarm as back-up to wake me up but dang it, I had left it at my work desk last night!…

Home-cooked Dishes

A short post to boast some of MIL’s delish home-cooked dishes 😛 Simple yet satisfaction to the max dishes that MIL cooked this week… Pan-fried white pomfret fish and fried minced pork with Shimeji mushrooms and carrot.     Vegetarian dish and braised bitter gourd with pork slices and black beans.   Sitr-fried sirloin steak…

Cameron Highlands Trip (9-10 June 2014)

This is going to be a word-less post. No, it is not wordless as in no words but just lesser words 😀 I just want to make a quickie post to update my blog and then plonk myself in bed. Oh my bed! I so miss my dear bed that I have not been sleeping…

Messy, Messier, Dustiest, Havoc-kest!

This is my once clean and dust-free warm abode… Now the walls are hacked and the entire place looks like a post-earth quake shattered unit *sobs*     Even with plastic sheets, the darn workers’ rough handling tore down the sheets and my work area and dining area are freaking dusty!!! I asked the old…

And The Nightmare Begins…

The nightmare has just begun for 2 weeks of hacking, drilling, dust and mess in the house *sobs* The past 2 days we did a lot of packing, sealing and moving to our aunt’s unit in the same block as ours. The real nightmare on Elm Street begins tomorrow!   As online work continues for…

A Very Expensive Lesson Learnt, The Hard Way!

As I had mentioned in my earlier post, the month of May has always been a very challenging month for me. Nothing goes smoothly in the month of May. It is also a month that money goes out inevitably from my pockets, from hubs’ pockets too. We were married in the month of May. Hubs…

Awful Monday

The month of May has always been very challenging for me.  This May, I have a long list of hurdles to tick away from the Awful May list. The biggest hurdle was ticked last week after Cass went for her Urodynamics Test. I just had my lower tooth no.5 extracted today and gawd, it was…

Emotional Day

Today is an emotional day of sorts for me. The news of the ill-fated missing MH370 MAS airplane last night and what I read from today’s newspapers have been very depressing. The cover page of The Star newspapers is black today. Pictures of the relatives and kin of the passengers on board MH370 crying and…

It Finally Rained Cats And Dogs!!

Many of us take for granted what comes down from above like the rain and the sunshine. But ever since the prolonged drought and water rationing exercise carried out in almost every part of the Klang Valley in 1998, I have treated rain water as a very precious natural resource. Each time it rains, I…

Brainwashing Statement

Whenever Alycia and Sherilyn pass remarks like “are we bringing bread to school AGAIN tomorrow?”, I will reply “YES!”. “Strawberry jam/ kaya/peanut butter again??” and I will reply “YES!!” “I am SO SICK of strawberry jam / kaya/peanut butter mummy!” And my standard long reply would go… “when I was your age, my mummy, your…
