Ballon of bingo: welke heeft betere winkansen De meeste artikelen over crash-spellen en bingo slaan de plank mis. Ze doen alsof beide alleen maar “leuk” zijn, terwijl de echte vraag draait om winkansen, spelregels, uitbetaling, volatiliteit en de verwarring die bij veel spelers ontstaat zodra casinotermen door elkaar worden gehaald. De harde waarheid: een crash-spel…
I love brisk walking outdoors, especially in places surrounded by lots of trees and greenery. And apparently, there may be more to it than just getting some exercise, helping you de-stress, and enjoying the scenery. Trees and other plants release natural chemicals called phytoncides. These are volatile compounds that plants produce as part of their…
One of my favourite “desserts” that won’t cause much of a blood sugar rise is… cheese! I actually LOVE those individually wrapped square cheese slices, but they are more processed and can be quite high in sodium and other food additives. So when I buy cheese, I usually go for block cheese with the shortest…
One simple way to help reduce the rise in blood glucose after a meal is to get your muscles moving soon afterwards. You don’t necessarily need to go outdoors for a walk, though it would be great if you can. 5–10 minutes of squats, sit-to-stands or light dumbbell exercises can get your muscles working and…
If you’re a regular shopper on Shopee and Lazada, you’ll know there are sales at least 3 times a month. Minimum! Sometimes even more. There’s the same-digit date sales (9/9, 10/10, 11/11, etc), Mid-Month Sale and Pay Day Sale. And honestly, some things are so much cheaper than what you’ll find in supermarkets and even…
The past week, my mind has been flooded with all sorts of worries. I’m a professional worrier and overthinker. 😂 So when problems crop up, I basically double up on the worrying and overthinking. I worry about my daughters’ relationships, their university studies, whether they’ll pass their exams or suddenly decide to drop out. Someone…
This is the scene at our house in KL back when my girls were in Chinese primary school. Every single day, there would be a mountain of homework piled up on the dining table — just from school. And then there was another pile of Chinese tuition homework waiting for them on their desks. …
Missing my 3 daughters just a little more today. ❤️ All three of them are completely absorbed in their own busy lives — university, exams, assignments, dance and skating practices, social life, work and even house renovations. 😅 It would be lovely if they could make a short trip back to Ipoh for a little…
Knowing that I’m attending Zumba this evening, Dad thoughtfully cooked a big pot of lentil and vegetable curry for lunch and dinner. So sweet of him! ❤️ He also bought half a roast chicken this morning so that I can have an early dinner. When it comes to roast chicken, the breast meat goes to…
Lunch: Tapau chap fan from our favourite shop — braised chicken with black fungus, braised tofu, steamed fish and braised turnip. Only RM23. The three of us couldn’t even finish the chicken, so the leftovers went straight into the dinner menu. Why we ate so little? Coz at 83, dad doesn’t like eating meat anymore,…
Shopee is having 50% OFF on clothes from selected sellers, and my favourite seller is one of them! As a responsible retired Ipoh auntie, I had to investigate. And somehow, my investigation resulted in a few new bra tops and skorts joining my wardrobe. But hello… 50% OFF leh! Half price! This is called saving…
Stir-fried leek with siew yoke is one of our family favourites, and one of my 83-yo Hakka Dad’s signature dishes. ❤️ It’s a popular Hakka dish and a common sight on the dining table during CNY because leeks have an auspicious meaning. It’s also a pretty delicious way to “recycle” leftover roast pork. Simple, inexpensive,…
Sunday, 20 Sept 2026 — What We Ate Breakfast: Mum’s homemade keto pandan santan mug cake + chocolate mug cake. 😋 Lunch: Leftover Seoul Garden from last night. We’re such small eaters that THREE dishes became dinner + today’s lunch. 😂 Dinner was my 83-yo dad’s home-cooked spread — red bell pepper with garlic, onions…
A quick lunch at Nong Geng Ji Hunan Cuisine @ Sunway Pyramid 🌶️🥢 Last month, when I went to Sunway Pyramid for my youngest daughter Cass’s figure skating competition at Skate Asia, we stopped by Nong Geng Ji Hunan Cuisine for lunch. I only had about 30 minutes to eat because my taxi was coming…
