FollowYesterday evening, Cass insisted on bringing her favorite ‘baby’ with her when I fetched Sherilyn back from the enrichment centre. Her ‘baby’ even shared her safety belt with her in the car. In another year’s time when Cass will be over 6 years old, I know Cass would have probably outgrown her babyish and childish…

Sherilyn’s French Dessert For Granny
The night before my parents were due to return to Ipoh by train, Sherilyn told me that she would wake up early to make a ‘cake’ for granny. Keeping to her promise, Sherilyn woke up at 7:30am on Saturday and whipped up this “French dessert” for granny, which she named ‘Yateau Lattea’ LOL! Sherilyn’s healthy…
Monkey See Monkey Do
The big monkey was so excited when he found out that Unilever has finally come up with mini Magnum Almond and has since been stocking up boxes of our favorite ice cream in the freezer. This afternoon after lunch at Ramen Ten, he could not wait to unwrap one mini Magnum Almond the moment he…
Our Saturday – 26 October 2013
My parents have just returned to Ipoh. I am sure going to miss them a lot after having them with us for almost 2 weeks. Alycia and Sherilyn’s final exam ended yesterday but Alycia would have to sit for the Science and Math test papers in English on Monday. Cass’ final exam is also starting…
Brunch At Nutmeg
Champion of The Clumsy Club
The clown of the family is coincidentally also the clumsy pot of the house… since young. She had broken far too many things. This year alone, she had broken both her sisters’ mugs, grandma’s teapot cover and a few nights ago, she finally broke my favorite mug cover from Ikea. When I saw the mug…
Our Weekend Before The Final Exam
We have had a pretty chillaxing weekend despite it being the weekend before Alycia and Sherilyn’s final exam. My parents are in KL and we have been having outings over the past few days. On Saturday morning, we went to the Bukit Bintang wet market to have breakfast. It has been yonks since I last…
Jinxed Day
Multi-tasking Story Book Worm
For days, I have noticed Alycia’s novels in the bathroom. Once it was in the shower stall – on the ledge. A few days ago, Cass fished out a wet novel from the bathroom floor which was wet! Boy was I enraged!! I think she fibbed about the part-time helper dropping it onto the floor,…

Cassandra’s Year-End Kindy Concert
Sherilyn and I attended Cass’ kindy concert yesterday morning. The hubs had to be at his kitchen to prepare for a client’s function and Alycia had to stay home for Mandarin tuition. I had put on make-up for Cass at home. At the hall, her teacher painted her face. Cass and her classmates donned on…
Onions Don’t Make Me Cry, They Make Me Laugh LOL!
Yesterday I was peeling and slicing big onions in the kitchen. Cass came into the kitchen to read her story book to me. She’s displayed a great interest in reading lately and has shown a promising improvement 
I told her not to stand too near the chopping board and I said “ONIONS WILL MAKE…
Hair Accessories Galore
With over 1 year of constant nagging and drumming into her head to get ready her school uniform and to lay out her bunch of hair accessories every night, rascal #2 has finally made this a nightly routine. She used to dawdle every morning, by dragging her feet to the cupboard to hunt for her…

Sick As A Dog
Sherilyn is not as sick as a dog today like she was yesterday. Though her appetite is still somewhat drowned after being attacked by some salmonella (my guess), my consolation is from hearing her tell me “I feel much better today” this morning. She has only eaten 1 piece of cream crackers and 2 glasses…
