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…

Soooo Sleepy
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…
New Hairstyle
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…
Fun With Bubbles
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…
The Gals Have Gone For A Haircut
My mil and my maid have just left the house to bring Alycia and Sherilyn for a haircut. The gals have not had a haircut for months already and their hair is becoming long and messy. My mil cannot stand the sight of their long and messy hair, especially during meal times coz the gals…

Please Don’t Fall Sick
My maid is having the sniffles and I’m so afraid she’ll spread the virus to my 2 gals. I’ve given her Clarinase and Nurofen for the last 2 days and hopefully, she’ll recover in no time. If my gals catch my maid’s cold bug, I’m pretty sure there’ll be a domino effect and everyone in…
Investing in Tea
Anyone wants to invest in tea? More and more people are choosing to invest in tea these days, especially Pu Err tea as the prices of tea (good quality, superior tea) have been going up steadily for the last few years. In fact, the price of tea has gone up even higher than the price…
Not Much Sleep
I didn’t get much sleep last night. I think I only have about 2-3 hours of deep sleep last night. I was actually having insomnia. Yea, me having insomnia, of all people. Already severly deprived of sleep, I just couldn’t get into deep sleep as I had drank some Pu Err chinese tea in the…
Organic Choco Drink
This is the organic choco drink that sil#1 bought the gals from Hong Kong. I normally add 1 tablespoon to Sherilyn’s cereal and she loves it. The colour of the cereal is dark chocolate and the cereal tastes exactly like chocolate pudding or chocolate moose, and it’s not too sweet. Even I like it! No.…
Alycia Is Off Diapers During Nap Time (Part 2)
I Can’t Believe I Did It
When I’d accepted the 6 offers from my favorite advertiser this morning, I thought I would not be able to complete them by tomorrow but heck, I managed to complete all today. The advertiser has even approved a couple of my posts. Luckily my mil is around to help me watch over the gals, else…
What A Mess
Several days ago as I was busy working at my computer, Sherilyn was entertaining herself and drawing at the dining table. She was singing away cheerily as she was drawing. Then, from singing she switched to counting. I heard her counting from 1 to 10 perfectly without any mistakes. Suddenly, I felt something fishy going…
Nice Smell Wafting From The Kitchen…Again
Alycia Only Wants Her Mah Mah
Nice Smell Coming From The Kitchen
As I am typing this post, my tummy is growling and rumbling away as I hear my mil clanking the spatula away on the wok frying meehoon with shredded pumpkin strips, strips of chicken meat, dried shrimps and bean sprouts. This is a recipe which she had learnt from a Taiwanese friend. I shall take…
