All you need are :Pork ribs2 tablespoons Lee Kum Kee ‘hoisin’ sauce (seafood sauce)2 tablespoons tau cheong (fermented soya bean paste)1 tablespoon Oyster sauce1 teaspoon black sauceA dash of sugar or half slice…
Alycia my discerning eater loves to eat spicy food. Yesterday, my mil bought a packet of fried koay teow, extra spicy and the three of us (mil, Alycia and I) gobbled down the plate of spicy koay teow in just minutes. Though Alycia’s mouth was burning and stinging, she kept asking for more and more…
My eldest sil, her son and maid arrived from Hong Kong last night. The gals were excited and delighted to meet their little cousin brother, Ernest for the first time. Just before bedtime, the gals and Ernest were playing on the bed in the gals’ room when suddenly Ernest hugged Alycia very tightly and tried…
Today is a day of eating junkies and outside food for Alycia and Sherilyn. At sunday school this morning, there was a birthday party and the gals feasted on birthday cake laced with rich chocolate cream. There were also biscuits, chocolate and M&Ms. As I wasn’t around to supervise the gals (I was attending service…
Yesterday, we feasted on pasar malam food for dinner. Alycia and Sherilyn got their first taste of ‘look look’ (fish balls on satay stick) and were hooked to them. Hubby bought popiah, ‘look look’, chicken and beef satay, deef fried boneless chicken chop, nyonya kuih and of course durians – everyone’s all-time favorite. Deep-fried boneless…
It’s another one more month to the Mooncake festival but daddy has already bought Alycia and Sherilyn lanterns and candles to play. Daddy also bought one lantern for little aunty Wei Wei (hubby’s cousin sister who’s 4 yo), cousin Ernest (hubby’s 1.5yo nephew) and little uncle Conor (hubby’s baby cousin who’s 6 mo) who will…
Being a health freak, I hardly ever serve my gals kuih or hawkers’ food for breakfast. Their breakfast normally consist of fruits or orange juice, an egg or Edamame beans or steamed sweet potatoes or steamed sweet corns, cereal, biscuits or plain chiffon cake. But since their mah mah is here, the gals had kuih…
I admit that sometimes I am quite a pack rat. Whenever I see empty bottles, tins, containers and paper bags that are cute, colourful and stylish, I don’t have the heart to chuck them away. Instead, I will keep them for months or sometimes even years and when I finally run out of space to…
Several days ago when my mil came back from Hong Kong, the gals stuck to their mah mah like glue and only went to bed way past 12 midnight. The following morning, they woke up early to stick to mah mah again. As they didn’t get enough sleep, they were naturally very sleepy towards the…
I am not too pleased with Alycia’s and Sherilyn’s new hairstyle. The hairstylist didn’t do a good job. Though I had specifically given instructions to my maid and mil to tell the hairstylist not to cut too short, it still turned out pretty short and way above their chin level. They look so funny and…
My gals are balloon and bubble crazed. Recently, the gals’ koo koo (youngest sil) bought them an ELC battery-operated bubble maker from Hong Kong and they had so much fun playing with it. Even I find the bubble maker amusing. I normally bring them to the park to blow bubbles so that they will not…
