FollowI bought a bag of calamari (squid / ‘sotong’) from the pasar malam yesterday. My three piranhas are big fans of the ‘sotong’. No wonder they can be quite a ‘blur sotong’ at times 
I told the girls that I’d like to try baking the squids in the oven but we would have to wait…

Post Surgery – Day 3
Ever since my discharge from the hospital, I have been treated like a woman in confinement. I eat confinement food, drink red dates + blue dates + tong sum tonic everyday, not allowed to shower more than once a day lest the wound gets infected (though the dr. has given me the green light to…
After School Snacks
Wednesdays are CoCo (CoCurricular) days. Drama Queen and Cass will be home late, at around 4ish pm. Whenever they are back from school, they look and behave like feral dogs — they will dart straight to the kitchen to check every nook and corner in search for food. At the sight of food, they will stuff…
5th Day Of School Holidays – 30 Nov 2016
The 5th day of our school holidays today was spent at Mid Valley Megamall and Gardens Mall. Traffic into the malls was horrendous. All the car park entrances into the 2 malls showed FULL on the screen and I had no choice but to inch my way into the Premium car park and luckily got…
Holiday Activity – Cookie Baking
This idea was entirely Drama Queen’s. And I entrusted her with the entire task as I knew she could handle it pretty well. Except for helping her with the oven and checking on the doneness of the cookies, Drama Queen enlisted the help of her 2 side-kicks on this holiday cookie baking project today. She…

Evening Activities In Ipoh – 22 December 2013
This is where the girls would normally play in the evening when we are back at my parents in Ipoh. There is this Siamese temple sitting in front of a limestone cave with scenic view, located just a minute’s walk from my parents’ house. There are steep steps leading to the top of the temple.…
Girls’ Play – Guess My Expression
With 2 days being cooped up at home due to the haze, the girls ingeniously came up with fun activities and games to occupy their time. The night before they resumed going to school, I told them to get ready some face masks. Moments later, I heard giggles and laughter coming from the bedroom. Alycia…
Bye Bye School, Welcome Holidays!
Today is Cass’ kindy’s parents-teachers day where the parents will meet the teachers and collect the child’s report card. I wonder how she has fared in her first ever classroom style exam. For BM, she has just started to master suku kata and has just started to get the hang of stringing the suku katas…
The Girls Helped To Make Buckwheat Noodles
Last Saturday, grandma wanted to make buckwheat noodles (from scratch) for lunch. With under 1 hour to knead the dough, cut the dough into strips, prepare the anchovies soup and all, so that rascal #2 could eat her lunch on time before going for ballet class, everyone stopped what they were doing to lend a…
Silver Lining Behind My Dark Cloud
Now that I have limited movements and usage on my injured hands, I have no choice but to rely on the little ones at home. My girls have been pretty obedient since yesterday — helping to wash their own cups and plates after meals, Cass bathed herself with me standing next to her telling her…
Our Typical Weekend Morning
This is a typical scene on a Saturday and Sunday morning. The 3 angels will be seated at the dining table, eating breakfast with eyes fixated on either a book or the newspaper, while grandma and mummy will be poring over the newspapers. Daddy will be snoring away and still in bed haha! Check out…
Roping In Kids To Do Household Chores
The Sisters
I better jot this funny incident before it slips my mind again. There are too many things that I had wanted to enter into my kids’ blog but busyness has always been the culprit. A few weeks ago, Alycia was fighting with her 2 younger sisters. She fights with Sherilyn all the time but with…
Our Sunday – Outing At Ikea
We spent the entire morning at Ikea yesterday. I wanted to get myself a nice storage to store my stock as they are increasing by the day. Right now, my stock is all stuffed inside those huge plastic bags from Disneyland and put on top of the kids’ table in the living room. They are…
