Namoo On The Park @ Publika

We planned to leave KL for Ipoh very early in the morning today but as expected, work cropped up and hubs had to settle some work at his office. So we had to drop our plan of having good old Ipoh hawkers food at Kwong Heng.  Instead we went to Publika @ Solaris Dutamas to…

Our Sunday – 15 September 2014

Cass woke up early this morning and while eating her fruits, she handmade this snail out of BlueTac for me.     Cass – “mummy, I made this little snail for you. You are just as cute as this snail” Awwww, she made my day, with such a simple and cute gesture.   Later my baby…

Sherilyn’s Homemade Potato Salad

Today is the first day of the UPSR examination for Primary 6 students.  Sherilyn did not have to go to school today while Alycia needed to.  Tomorrow it will be Alycia’s turn to enjoy a day off school. Instead of going to the enrichment centre in the morning, Sherilyn decided to follow me to the…

Our Sunday – 7 September 2014

Just a short post on an update of how my Sunday has been, before I hit the sack. You know, my life is very much like Cinderella ever since my live-in maid went back for good 2 years ago. During the day, Cinderella does chores, all types of chores.   At night, she must be in…

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…

Wednesday Grilled Dinner

I love dishing out grilled fish, meat and veggies.  I call them my ‘healthy homecooked fast-food’.  And they taste really good too.  Most importantly, grilling food in the oven is sweat-free and oil splatter-free too! Funnily, for someone who gets ‘heaty’ very easily, grilled food somehow does not make me feel heaty or sick, unlike…

Our Merdeka Holiday @ Avenue K – 1 Sept 2014

We spent our Merdeka holiday at Avenue K yesterday – 1 Sept 2014. After a very satisfying lunch at Wondermama @ Avenue K, we charged the stores of H&M.  My 3 vain pots and me.  Hubs went his own way. I managed to get what the girls needed from H&M – a dinner dress each…

RGB At The Bean Hive

After the appointment with my OB & Gyn on Thursday (NOPE, it’s not what you think!), we met up with some friends at a new cafe nearby. From the facade of the bungalow-turned-cafe, it looks unoccupied and nondescript. No one would have guessed that inside is a cafe that sets to serve one of best…

Random Thoughts

Whenever the MIL goes abroad to stay with her daughters, I tend to find it hard to get the momentum to take over the cook’s job after having enjoyed the luxury of staying away from the hot kitchen for a period of time.   For the first few days after she leaves, I will normally cook…

Attending A Wake With Cass

Today I brought Cass to attend the wake of our very close friend’s mother.  AY’s mother passed away two days ago from pneumonia. She had been battling cancer for 6 years, won the battle but succumbed to pneumonia.   At the wake, Cass kept nudging hubs and I to bring her to see aunty ‘sleeping’ in…

No Excuse To Pop Your Calcium!

Have you ever noticed that, even as adults, we sometimes retreat back to the childhood behavior of making excuses to keep from doing something?  When it comes to taking calcium supplements, it’s tempting to use excuses such as they’re too big or they’re too hard to swallow. You may use the excuse that you don’t…

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…
