FollowDH does the weekly marketing of vegetables, fish and fruits at a nearby pasar-malam (night market) every Friday. When he brings home the produce, my maid and I will lay everything on the kitchen floor. Whilst my maid wraps the vegetables in white mahjoong paper and labels them, I’ll keep the fruits in the fridge.…
My Wholesome and Simple Lunch
This is my lunch almost everyday. Homemade bread with Steffi’s sugar-free peanut butter or kaya (LOVE kaya but don’t always eat it as it’s fattening), avocado or organic jams, sugar-free black sesame jam (another of my favourite) or tuna fish. A ripe avocado in halves, ready to be scooped out to be spread on the…
Why Did Alycia Do That?
Yesterday, Alycia did something that’s unimaginable and absolutely gross. After she had finished her milk before her afternoon nap, she went to drink water from her cup. She then picked her nose, dug out some ‘gold’ and flicked it into Sherilyn’s cup of water. I did not see her doing that but after her mischievous…
Sherilyn’s First Whip From Daddy
For the first time, Sherilyn got whipped from daddy yesterday. It was almost dinner time and daddy came home early yesterday and was lying on the floor in the hall to get some rest. Sherilyn was playing and started to throw her toys everywhere. When daddy scolded her and told her to stop throwing the…
My 2 Little Absolute Terrors
My 2 gals can be very destructive or should I reword it to say that they are rather curious and love exploring and discovering how things function? Almost all the drawers in my house especially in my room and the gals’ room as well as in the kitchen and in the hall are fixed with…
I Am Touched
New Toy
This is the new toy that daddy bought Alycia and Sherilyn from Toys R Us last Friday. It’s a school tent, to complete the yellow school bus tent that daddy bought them one month ago. This school bus tent is both educational and fun to play with. Alycia and Sherilyn love to pour all their…
Good Shanghainese Food
We had Shanghainese food at Dragon I Restaurant, Mid Valley a couple of days ago. Let me tempt you with pix of the mouth-watering dishes : ‘Siu Loong Pau’ or pork meat filled dumplings with superior soup, to be eaten with black vinegar and shredded ginger. I love! I don’t really know the name of…
Breakfast Ritual
This is Alycia and Sherilyn’s breakfast ritual each morning – reading or playing jigsaw puzzles or drawing and writing on their Doodle Pro whilst they have their breakfast. These pictures were taken yesterday morning: Take a look at Alycia’s serious look as she was deeply engrossed reading this Peter and Jane series book. BTW, this…
How I Made My 2 Brats Sleep
A few nights ago, Alycia and Sherilyn refused to sleep. Why? Because daddy was downstairs and they wanted to go down to play with him but I didn’t allow it coz it was already 11ish pm and Alycia had cough and needed to sleep early. They whined and whimpered, jumped round the room, knocked on…
Fridge All Locked Up
Home-cooked Food
This was our dinner yesterday. Stir-fried asparagus with tiger prawns and organic soya sauce. Notice the beautiful orange colored sauce? It’s not curry but the natural colouring from the thick creamy roe of the tiger prawns. It tasted really delicious because of the flavourful essence from the big tiger prawns. The asparagus were crunchy and…
Lucky Day
Today must be my lucky day. I have just received 3 offers from Blogitive and without any hesitation, I quickly clicked on the reserve tab to reserve all 3 offers. Blogitive has so far been quite prompt in their payment and in responding to all my e-mails, unlike some competitors who don’t even reply my…

What’s That Nice Smell?
A few days ago, I baked a loaf of bread for the gals. After I had returned from my morning jog, I quickly prepared the ingredients and dumped everything into my breadmaker so that the gals and I can have fresh hot bread for lunch. When the bread was almost ready, the sweet aroma of…
What Dishes Am I Going To Whip Up?
We went shopping at Mid Valley the whole afternoon yesterday. As usual, as I went on my bi-weekly retail theraphy to de-stress myself, DH secretly bought the gals yet another toy but this time, I have to give DH credit coz the toy is both educational and fun to play with. Want to see the…
