I have always wished that one of these days, in the not too distant future, a big opportunity will come knocking on our door which will enable us all to relocate back to our hometown up North. We could save so much more money living in that quiet and peaceful city where the hubs and…

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

 Just had to snap a pic of this gigantic rainbow arching from KLCC after a heavy downpour here in KL today.  The girls could not be more excited to see such a big rainbow arching across the sky. Picture taken from the 5th floor of our condo unit @ 7:15pm. Did you see the rainbow…

Dinner – 18 Jan 2013

Here’s another 1-plate dish that I dished up for dinner yesterday. Steamed pomfret fish (tau tai chong) with mushrooms and red dates (I always use these 2 ingredients to expel the fishy odor if I steam the fish), tomato, organic Japanese pumpkin wedges and I threw in a piece of lap cheong (Chinese sausage) as…

Our Dinner On Xmas 2012

We had a pretty quiet Xmas last week.  The bunch of relatives and friends who usually celebrate Xmas with us were all overseas.  And my hubs had to be at the site to oversee his new project.  In fact, throughout the school holidays, he was very busy at site with his new project. Now that…

Bye Bye 2012

Finally my two private domain blogs are up and running again!! But I am close to a thousand bucks poorer. Fuming mad with my host for not informing me that my domain has exceeded its bandwidth. They should have informed me at least 2 months earlier before they pull the life wires out from my…

Preparation For The Absence

The MIL has been busy clanking pots, pans and spatula in the kitchen for the past few days, dishing up pots after pots of dishes. Not that we are having a feast but the dishes will be our ration for the next 2 months until her return from overseas lol!  The dishes are for deep…

Short-Lived Joy

I was truly thankful when I found an Indon helper to come to my place to help with the dishes and some house chores last week. With the mil’s baking and daily cooking, the dishes, pots, pans and baking equipment are a handful to handle. And doing the dishes is one area which I absolutely…

More On Home Delivered Food

Each time I order daily catered food, I would wait impatiently for the day to come for it to end! This is the 2nd time I am trying out daily catered food and both times, I gave up on the second day and have to ‘endure’ for 2-3 weeks for the days to reach the…

Cheap Prescription Glasses For Sherilyn

During the school holiday, I brought Sherilyn to the opthalmologist to have her eyes checked. Actually I had earlier brought her to an optician to have her eyes checked but the results produced by the computer and by manual check did not correspond. I was adviced to have her brought to an opthalmologist to have a thorough eye check up. Well, it turned out that she has pretty high astigmatism on her right eye and slight astigmatism on her left eye. She was advised to wear prescription glasses to help correct the problem.

We have not brought her to the optician to choose her glasses. For a very scattered-brain and clumsy-pot, I would not get her anything more than a hundred bucks for her glasses. I have searched the internet and found Zenni Optical, an online optician that offers a wide range of affordable and stylish glasses. I can even get glasses as low as $4.95 from Zenni Optical! Since it is so affordable, I can even get a few pairs for Sherilyn, just in case she breaks a pair. There are hundreds of chick and pretty frames to choose from, I’ll bet my vain pot will have a fun time choosing her frames. With the money saved on glasses, I can get her some of the story books that she has been bugging me to buy for her.

Do check out Zenni Optical too to get yourself some affordable prescription eyeglassesHidden FieldHidden Field You can save so much $$ when you get these really affordable yet stylish eye glasses. With the money saved on eye glasses, you can stretch your money further and spend them on other essential items.

My princess wannabe who likes all things pink chose this glasses in pink frame with rose crafted on the temples. Pretty cool eh?

Fetish On Erasers

Guess whose work of art and creativity this was from…. I was fuming mad when I saw the vandalized eraser, with staple bullets all over it. All 3 rascals were highly suspicious but the person who did it was the least in my suspicion list. 2 weeks later, I saw another eraser with the same…

Our Sunday – 20 May 2012

Though Alycia still has 2 more papers to sit for tomorrow, I nevertheless wanted her to enjoy her weekend after a stressful week-long of exam. We all woke up early and spent over an hour sweating it out at the park while getting our neglected dose of Vitamin D from the glorious morning sun. After…

Internet’s Back !

My bad – I under estimated TM’s efficiency. This time, they managed to deliver way ahead of the estimated completion time. Thank you TM and it is hoped that you will continue to keep to your promise and deliver uninterrupted broadband internet at all times. One thing about crisis is that I almost never fail…
