FollowI’ve got a confession to make and I’ll bet you’ll roll on the floor laughing till your stomach aches. I have always reprimanded my girls not to spend hours on end sitting on the royal throne to perform their business with a book in hand but I am now starting to follow suit my girls’…

Our Saturday – 27 April 2013 And The Election Campaign Fever
Today is a school-going day for Alycia and Sherilyn. It is a replacement school day for the holiday given on Qing Ming (All Souls Day) 2 weeks ago. Everyone at home was up at 5:45am today — while Alycia and Sherilyn were getting themselves ready, the MIL’s iPad buzzed as she had a Skype video…
My Health Freak Breakfast – 25 April 2013
After a half-hour workout in the gym today where I burned 300+ calories, here’s what I had for breakfast: 1 packet of Ryvita’s mini cream cheese & chives rye crackers (shared with Cass) and half a bowl of honey nut granola topped with untoasted hazelnuts, pistachios, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds and three juicy strawberries. I…
New Found Flash Cards
Cass was rummaging through my drawers last week and guess what she fished out from the deepest end of the drawer that I hardly open? Boxes of flash cards on Math (division, addition, subtraction), words, opposites and nouns! They were all new and I was so pleasantly surprised with her unintentional discovery! I inspected the…
Serai Restaurant @ Life Centre, KL And We Saw Siti Nurhaliza and Datuk K!
We spent a good 15 minutes at the church car park yesterday, at a lost over where to head to for lunch. Finally, the foodie hubs suggested going to Life Centre at the heart of the Golden Triangle to try out some new restaurants at the refurbished Life Centre as he had heard positive review…

The Big Girl’s Meltdown
The big girl had a major meltdown this morning from 6am right through to lunch time! I had blogged that her fever had subsided yesterday but at around 6ish pm, her temperature shot up to 38.6 degrees Celsius again but she was not feeling uncomfortable. She felt pretty normal and had pretty good appetite. Only…
Lunch For The Kids Today – 16 April 2013
After 3 days of vomiting and retching with zilch appetite, Alycia’s appetite is slowly returning today. For 3 days, everyone at home has been eating porridge and vermicelli cooked with minimal oil and meat. According to the paed’s suspicion, Alycia has been attacked by some kind of virus. You know doctors, when they cannot be…
Someone is Under The Weather
….which spells trouble for any mummy! Alycia has been running a high temperature (up to 39.4 degrees Celsius) since Friday evening. What’s worrying this quack doctor mummy is that she shows almost no symptoms, except for a slight phlegmy throat. Alycia is also complaining of dizziness, headache and generally feeling malaise with not much appetite.…
Art For Year 4 KBSR Students
A few days ago, I was taken by surprise when Alycia showed me a pack of colorful styrofoam pieces for assembling. For a moment, I thought that her friend had given her a pack of jigsaw puzzle. But she told me that it was her school homework from Art class! I thought that she was …
When The Brain Feels Sluggish
Our Tuesday – 9 April 2013
Today after my ‘refresher driving lesson’ with hubs, I told him that we should avoid having another fattening breakfast. I’ve had enough of pastries and sausages from Ficelle for the past one week and I certainly did not want to eat noodles, rice or any carbs. So after dropping off Cass in school, we stopped…
Our Sunday – 7 April 2013
Today has been a marvelous day for us. We were not late for church and the girls learnt something new in Sunday School. I accompanied Cass throughout her session spent in Sunday School as she was reluctant to let go of me. I actually enjoy pre-schoolers’ Sunday School very much as I treat it as…
Cassandra’s 5th Birthday Dinner
Homecooked Meals
Grandma made a batch of pumpkin buns just before dinner. My bread-crazed Cass announced to grandma that she ain’t going to eat rice and only wanted to eat mien pau (bread in Mandarin) with homemade kaya and cheese. So while the rest of us had rice with yummy homecooked dishes, Cass had bread and I…
