FollowIs This Too Tough For A 4-Year Old?
Posted on
Frankly, do you think the word ‘xiao’ or smile in Mandarin is a tad too tough for a 4-year old to write? Though the meaning is straightforward, the word itself has so many strokes that even we adults find it difficult to remember to write, well at least for me, a yellow banana who speaks …

I Wish Sherilyn Will Stop Puking
Posted on
Sherilyn did it again last night. This time, it wasn’t at the usual jinxed 12 midnight but at 10ish pm. I had put the gals to bed early last night as they had taken their medicine and were feeling sleepy and listless, especially Alycia. After putting them to sleep at 10pm, I went downstairs and sat…
Abacus Calculation And Chinese School
Posted on
Alycia’s pre-school is using the abacus method to teach the preschoolers Maths. Her pre-school is gravitated towards Mandarin and most of the preschoolers there eventually go to a Chinese school. Last week, Alycia brought home an abacus to be used for her Maths homework. When I taught her to use the abacus, she appeared lost. I had a tough time trying to teach…
Alycia’s First Ballet Class
Posted on
Despite running a low grade fever, I still brought Alycia to her first ballet class yesterday. Thank God, she did not puke or purge in class and was enjoying every moment of the 1-hour session. While the teacher was teaching the kids dancing, Sherilyn and I watched them through the door outside the room. I am…
On The Road To Recovery
Posted on
Alycia and Sherilyn are on the road to recovery. The fever is gone for both gals but they have now developed a cough, as expected. Sherilyn has even developed a sexy, husky voice and almost lost her voice last night. There seems to be a lot of phlegm in her throat too. Though Alycia has…

Since my 2 sick kittens do not have appetite to eat much, I decided to make them something different and appealing for lunch today. I copied this from one of the Singaporean mummies’ blog. It doesn’t take too much time and it’s really simple to prepare. All you need to do is to buy a loaf of fresh…
Should I Get Some Gold Jewelry For My Birthday?
Posted on
What should I get myself for my birthday this year? I haven’t been pampering myself with something that I really like and something that’s expensive for the longest time. I have been scrimping and saving every cent I could ever since I left the corporate world. Well, I think this year I should give myself…

Alycia Is Really Sick
Posted on
Alycia is really sick and has been throwing up for the last 2 days. Each time her temperature goes beyond 38.5 degrees Celcius, she will puke. This afternoon just before lunch, she was playing with the maid and laughing away. She laughed so hard that she puked…. and all that came out was phlegm, lots of them. There…
Both The Girls Are Down
Posted on
My worst nightmare came true last night. Not only is Sherilyn having fever, Alycia who does not have a strong immune system also caught the bug and is having high fever (40 degrees Celcius), swollen throat and a runny nose. She could not stomach any food this morning and threw up twice. Sherilyn also has a very swollen throat…
Sherilyn’s Turn To Fall Sick Now
Posted on
I am feeling much better today – no more blocked nose, runny nose or sore throat, only a slight cough every now and then. I think the barley water, crysanthemum tea, Manuka honey, lots of fruits and gargling of salt water throughout the day really helped. Getting enough sleep also helps. Now it’s Sherilyn’s turn to have runny nose…

She can even drink the curry gravy by the spoonfuls! We had roti canai, roti pisang (roti canai with banana), tosei and roti canai…
