Cassandra Turns 7 Today!

Posted on April 9, 2015April 9, 2015 by Shireen

This morning while Cass was dressing up for school, I asked her what cake she wanted us to get for her, to which I got this reply… “I don’t want any birthday cake. I only want to get healed. What is more important than being healed from incontinence right? Think of how much money you…

Our Easter Sunday – 5 April 2015

Posted on April 6, 2015April 6, 2015 by Shireen

After church, we had Japanese at Edo Ichi @ Nexus, Bangsar South. Cold noodles with cold broth and raw quail’s eggs but err, we find the raw egg mixture too yucky and omitted it in the cold broth. Green tea ice-cream with red bean. Not my idea, of course. I don’t…

Classroom Stories From Cass

Cass today… Cass – mummy, you know, today J touched my… butt! Me (GASPED!) – what? WHY?? Cass – I was walking in the classroom and he used his hand to touch my butt when I passed his desk. Me – did you tell your class teacher? Cass – yes and teacher whacked J on…

Awesome Rawsome Lunch – 2 April 2015

Posted on April 3, 2015April 3, 2015 by Shireen

Yesterday was awesome rawsome lunch day for me. I do that twice or thrice a week, for lunch. Today is yet another day of going raw for lunch, well almost, but I will be adding an egg to increase my hemoglobin levels. I am anemic, caused by heavy menses, which in turn is contributed by…

Izumio Hydrogen Water and Super Lutein

Posted on April 1, 2015August 21, 2017 by Shireen

Someone is very excited as she is opening a box of treasure! It’s a box of health treasure – Izumio hydrogen water, all the way from Japan! For those of you who know me well, I am not someone who can be easily convinced to buy a product, especially if it’s one from MLM companies,…

Rice Cooker Whole Tomato Rice

I hate Mondays! Mondays = hectic. Yesterday, Alycia told me this “mummy, if there is one word to describe Mondays, it is HATE! I wish there was a ‘I Hate Mondays’ shirt that I can buy to wear to describe how I feel!” LOL!! Since Sunday, Cass has been telling me how much she hated…

Health Freak Mommy is 42!

Posted on March 30, 2015 by Shireen

A year older but a year wiser. I turned 42 yesterday! Sometimes people think I am at the wrong side of 40 (and even 30 at times!) and I feel flattered. You can be as old as the hills but as long as you feel young at heart, age is nothing but numbers. The…

Holding My Mind Ransom

Posted on March 29, 2015March 30, 2015 by Shireen

Kids these days are super manipulative. With access to online social media platforms, the internet and the newspapers, my 12-year old knows more than I do sometimes. After all, she has more free time on hand to read during her leisure time whereas my free time is like just ten minutes a day – when…

Dealing with Reality

Posted on March 29, 2015March 30, 2015 by Shireen

When death occurs, it can be challenging for loved ones and family members to function properly. There is a natural time of grief that is necessary and is quite healthy. At the same time, various items must be addressed after the death of a loved one occurs. Resting Place Options After the death of a…

Our Sunday – 22 March 2015

Posted on March 22, 2015 by Shireen

Everyone started their day early today. By 10am, we left the house for KL Sentral station for the mil to check in for her flight to Hong Kong. Once that was done, we hurried to Mid Valley Megamall to have breakfast at Han Room, after which hubs bought nyonya kuih from Nyonya Colors for the…

Awesome Pawsome Cass

Posted on March 20, 2015March 20, 2015 by Shireen

Last night, I felt really blessed. While everyone else was watching TV, Cass gave me a massage on my problematic right hand. Actually I had forgotten all about massaging my hand to loosen the taut muscles and veins. I have hand numbness and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The physiotherapist that we saw on Wednesday taught…

My Thursday Breakfast At Doiffee Cafe – 19 March 2015

Posted on March 19, 2015March 19, 2015 by Shireen

My breakfast today was with just hubs and Alycia. It’s really been a while where only the three of us had a meal together. The last time we did that was 11 years ago when Alycia was just a baby (she was our only child then), our very much loved baby girl whom…

Our Saturday – 14 March 2015

Posted on March 14, 2015 by Shireen

After Cass’ Yamaha pop piano class today (her 6th lesson), I picked up Sherilyn from the enrichment center and then had lunch at an Indian restaurant. Hubs, whose office is just a few steps away joined us for lunch. After a carb-laden lunch, hubs suggested to have gourmet coffee at Les Deux Garcons, a French…

Dedicated Teacher

Posted on March 13, 2015March 13, 2015 by Shireen

Since the start of this year, Sherilyn has been telling me how happy she is with her class teacher. From what Sherilyn has been describing to me, this teacher sounds like a rare gem. It is darn hard to find a teacher who really has the passion for teaching and takes pride in what she/he…

School Stories From Cass – 11 March 2015

Posted on March 12, 2015 by Shireen

Cass came back from school yesterday with her school bag that looked as if it was about to burst out its contents at anytime. I helped her carry it and gawd, my shoulder was lop-sided and it hurt! I think her school bag weighed over 7kg, at least. Cass told me that the principal informed…

Today’s smoothie for everyone composes of 3 navel oranges, 1 organic Juliet apple, 6 Korean sweet strawberries and 1 baby cucumber with about 1 cup fresh coconut water and about 1 cup of Florida’s Natural orange juice. I bought this USA imported Florida’s Natural fresh orange juice as there was a buy-1-free-1 promotion at a…
