Red Flesh Orange

At a look, there is nothing extraordinary about this orange but once cut, you’ll be surprise to find that the flesh is red in color and it looks pretty much the same as a grapefruit but tastes exactly the same as an orange-flesh orange.  According to the fruit seller at the pasar malam (night market), this type of orange is only available once a year, don’t know how true this is.  

Have you eaten a red-flesh orange before?

Another Painful Jab And Hopefully The Last

Hubby was busy this morning, so Connie Koo Por (hub’s aunty) brought us to a nearby clinic early in the morning to have the last dose of antibiotics jab administered.  This time, I brought along Baby C’s favorite water-filled frozen teething ring and a rattle.

The sight of the HUGE syringe filled to the brim with liquid made me shudder. I really cringe at the sight of needles and syringes. I don’t know how I managed to survive 3 difficult pregnancies where I had to be given hormone jabs twice weekly at the start of my pregnancy until 12 weeks and 3 c-sections.

Anyway, Baby C wailed painfully when the dr. jabbed the needle into her muscles through her thigh unceremoniously. Then I think he took around 40 seconds or so to sloooooowly inject all the liquid into her thigh. That 40 seconds or so seemed like ages for me and Baby C. Even the frozen teething ring and rattle did not manage to distract her for the pain was just too much for her to bear. Well, I bet no one can bear the pain. Hopefully this jab will be the LAST ever antibiotics jab for Baby C.


I started feeding Baby C with 1 teaspoon of organic cranberry juice diluted with water and add 1 capsule of powdered probiotics into the juice 2 days ago. Hopefully these can prevent another bout of UTI attack.

Vacation In New York

I have never been to the United States but I’d love to visit this country one day. If I ever get the chance to visit the U.S., New York would be the first city that I’ll visit. I’d also love to visit my 2 good buddies who live in the U.S.   Jo, my childhood friend is now working in San Francisco with her hubs and Jenn, also my childhood friend is now living in Seattle with her hubs and 2 girls.

An aunt of mine who had just returned from a vacation in New York with her hubby told me that she had a wonderful time there and it was also an unforgettable one. It was both embarrassing yet hilarious as my aunt turned into a headless chicken when she thought she had lost her passport. Almost everyone in the tour searched high and low for her passport for almost half a day and when she returned to the hotel in the evening, found the passport amongst the pillows and blanket on the bed!
