Posted on July 28, 2014July 28, 2014 by Shireen

We left the house at 11ish am for KLCC today. Alycia has been bugging us for weeks to go to the 2014 Popular Book Fest. When we were about to reach KLCC, the roads leading into KLCC were all jammed up. Hubs said that it would be crazy to join in the craze and be…

PULP By Papa Palheta @ Bangsar

Posted on July 25, 2014July 25, 2014 by Shireen

The foodie hubs brought us to this new cafe that boasts to serve one of the best gourmet coffee in town. We went to PULP last Tuesday morning, which was a public holiday. When we were outside the cafe, for a moment, I had second thoughts about the cafe, given that this cafe is located…

Hectic Day

Posted on July 22, 2014July 23, 2014 by Shireen

The past few days have been hectic for me. I have been in a checking + packing frenzy, to rush out my customers’ orders. Total is the last day for courier pick up before the Hari Raya holiday. Since last week, I have been receiving stock from my supplier almost everyday. The house is in…

Eve Of The Girls’ Exam

Posted on July 20, 2014July 21, 2014 by Shireen

It’s the exam season once again. My desktop PC was dominated by Alycia and Sherilyn for the past 2 days. I prefer to use online Tatabahasa notes (mostly prepared by teachers) to guide the girls as there are more visuals to accompany the notes and they remember better when shown information in colorful slides. Sample…

Looming Danger In Rainbow Loom?

Posted on July 16, 2014July 16, 2014 by Shireen

My girls have finally been bitten by the Rainbow Loom bug! When Rainbow Loom first landed in Malaysia some time last year and became popular amongst kids and adults, I did not buy my girls a set. Reason being this el cheapo mummy said it was just too expensive. I ain’t going to splurge over…

Black Monday

Posted on July 14, 2014 by Shireen

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!…

Best Mother In The Whole Wide World

Posted on July 13, 2014July 13, 2014 by Shireen

I am supposed to be doing something more important now but I have to journal this down in my blog so that when Cass grows up and reads this, this post will serve as a reminder to her of what she had said to me when she was 6 years old. And Cassandra, you better…

Baked Mission Wraps With Beef Bolognese and Tuna Mayo

Posted on July 12, 2014July 13, 2014 by Shireen

Alycia and Cass liked the beef bolognese wraps that I made two days ago so much that they have been pestering me to make them again. Since the MIL has a date with her friends tonight and did not cook, I made this sweat-free delish baked wraps again. Sherilyn the social butterfly has gone on…

My Little Model

Posted on July 11, 2014July 11, 2014 by Shireen

It’s been a while since Cass last modeled for my online store. Since she was 2.5 years old, she has been modeling for me and she actually enjoys her freelance job with a little rewards from me hehe. She would blow my top at times when she refused to cooperate. In the first 4 pictures…

My Bad Tuesday, Not That Bad After All

Posted on July 8, 2014July 9, 2014 by Shireen

Today has been a bad day for me. I wasted over 10 hours of my precious time salvaging and restoring my precious photos that had been posted in my recent and previous blog posts for all my 3 blogs. All these photos were uploaded at Photobucket. And I feel SO SO tricked. Photobucket is a…

Blueberry Overnight Oats For Breakfast On A Hazy Morning

Posted on July 7, 2014July 8, 2014 by Shireen

Everyone at home is under the weather, with cough, phlegm and runny nose. The weather is partly to be blamed, plus I must admit that we all over-indulged in musang-king and red prawn DURIANS 😀 Today is pretty hazy and I think the haze is back again after giving us a respite for a week….

Splashing Good Time

Posted on July 5, 2014July 8, 2014 by Shireen

Here is Cass having a splashing good time with B, her friend living in the same block as ours yesterday… B is a few months older than Cass and a better swimmer than Cass. Cass seems to get her breathing technique wrong and she would struggle to breathe in air at the 2nd…

Eventful & Frightful Day For Alycia

Posted on July 3, 2014July 3, 2014 by Shireen

Today Alycia’s transporter arrived at our condo about half an hour late after school. When I picked her up at the lobby, Alycia who looked dazed said this to me the moment she saw me “mummy, something REALLY BAD happened right in front of my face!” I thought it was those pesky giant ghost moths…

This was what we had for dinner last night – stir-fried egg noodles with fish cake slices, meat slices, cabbage and fried eggs. The girls savored their oodles of yummy noodles to the very last strand! After dinner, they had to help to wash the dishes and clean up the dining area. Our part-time helper…
