Cassandra’s 1st Dose Pfizer Vaccine – 29 Sept 2021 (Wednesday)
A day after I received Sherilyn’s vaccination date (1st dose) via my MySejahtera app, Cass received hers via her MySejahtera app. I’m impressed with how efficient the minister in charged of Covid vax is in arranging vax for everyone in our country, including non-Malaysians and illegals. This means I’m going to be very busy next…

Home-cooked Meals By Our Teenage Chef
These are the delectables cooked by Sherilyn on Sunday and Monday. Sunday – Ratatouille. Monday – grilled chicken and baked smashed potatoes. Both dishes were decadent. If you like French fries, try making baked smashed potatoes. They’re healthier (and crispy too) and so much more yummier. Littered with herbs, black pepper, olive oil and a…
Lockdown Home-cooked Dishes By Our Teenage Chef
Sherilyn grasps every opportunity that she has in between online classes and dance & guitar classes to cook.

Alycia received her very first salary today and she’s delighted! It’s a 4-figure amount and paid to her in cash. Though not a lot and considered below the minimum wage, it is still a lot to a 17-year old girl in her first temporary job right after SPM and without any experience. My sweet girl…
Korokke (Japanese Potato Croquettes)
Sherilyn made Korokke (Japanese Potato Croquettes) for dinner today. They were super fattening but how can I resist when they’re so so delish and crispy?!
