CNY Cookies Almost Finishing

There are 5 more days to CNY and we are almost finishing the cookies and chips that I have bought.  I have bought a jar of homemade peanut cookies, a jar of almond-oats-cranberry cookies (all homemade by hub’s aunty),  a jar of almond-coffee cookies (already finished), 2 jars of arrow head chips (already chomped down 1 jar), a jar of lotus root chips (1/2 jar already in our tummies) and a huge packet of roasted almonds (1/2 packet gone).  I have ordered 2 more jars of green peas cookies which will only arrive on Monday.

To counter heatiness, I have been boiling barley water for everyone and I think it really does help prevent heatiness.  I alternate between ‘sang soke yee mai’ and regular barley everyday.

Have you started munching on your CNY goodies yet?  It’s really hard to resist eating them when you see them all nicely displayed on the table.

Would You Go Under The Knife Just To Look Beautiful?

Would you ever consider going for a liposuction so that you can have a tummy and figure that you’ve always dreamed of? I won’t say no to it coz I am quite a vain pot and I am willing to try anything that is proven safe. Take for example the varicose veins on my legs. Both my legs are ‘infested’ with ugly bulging varicose veins as a result of my pregnancy. Though I am now wearing a pair of special tight stockings to alleviate the symptoms, I don’t really see any improvement. My legs look so horrible that I am really contemplating going under the knife to remove those varicose veins next year.

Coming back to the topic of liposuction. According to the US News and World Report / Premium Health News, liposuction has a proven track record, so most experts think liposuction for now, is the better option. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, liposuction is the third most common cosmetic surgery procedure in the US after breast implants and nose jobs. Have you watched the episodes of Kate And Jon Plus Eight on Astro’s Home & Health? It’s about the life of a couple with 8 kids. The woman gave birth to twins the first time and the second time, she gave birth to sextuplets. She’s a very attractive woman but after the birth of her 8 babies, her tummy was unbelievably flabby. She then went for a liposuction and a couple of weeks later, she was up and running and looking flab-u-less again.

Should you decide to go for the famous Beverly Hills liposuction, Mommy Makeover, Beverly Hills plastic surgery , tummy tuck or breast augmentation Los Angeles, be sure to check out Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery at Beverly Hills.   Rodeo Drive has a wide range of procedures to meet your needs and their classy office with state-of-the-art facilities and cutting edge techniques make you feel as if you have just stepped into a 5-star hotel.

Lotus Root Chips

I think these lotus root chips are a new snack this Chinese New Year as  I have not seen these last year.  I’ve seen many stalls at the pasar malam (night market) selling these for the past one month.  Out of curiosity, I asked my mil to buy me a bottle when she went to the SS2 market last week.  They taste very much the same as arrow head (ngar koo) chips.  A bottle cost RM14.  I like them and so do Alycia and Sherilyn but I only limit them to 2 chips a day, for fear they will develop sore throat.

I Am Super Hero Sherilyn

Sherilyn in one of her naughtiest and cheekiest looks. After watching the casts and kids in Hi-5 dress up in capes and super hero costumes, the next day, the brat put an apron round her neck, turned the apron back, pretended it was her super cape and ran round the house like a super hero.   She’s really one very imaginative brat.

Note : the apron was loosely tied.  Close adult supervision needed.
