Don’t take the goodness away
I’m a morning person. I wake up happy and cheerful. I smile to the sunshine that peek through the heavy drapes in the room. I look at Ethan and give him a warm big hug and a good morning kiss. And if Darling is still not awake by the time I’m ready to get down to the kitchen to cook, Ethan and I would jump on him and tickle him silly to make sure he’s [...]

Loo, loo… skip to the loo..
I’ve just survived an interview with not so flying colours. The questions got me thinking there for a while. (Like as if you don’t already know that I don’t normally THINK or use my brain often ). Anyway, if all goes well I’ll know the result by next Tuesday or so… Anyway, let’s move on. You know what this sign means? 1) For Threesome ONLY 2) Only Chubbies allowed 3) For the elderly 4) For [...]

The Students Are Coming! Run!!!
A student’s parent told me something funny before she left her kid at my Studio this morning. She said, “Don’t faint alright?” And then she told her kid, “Don’t drive Auntie Merryn crazy ok?” LOL. What will be your impression when a parent tells you that? It’s like the kid is some kind of a monster! But after the first lesson today I found out that she is such an angel, no where near monster!

Breakfast like a King
It’s been a hectic week for me. Today though, I finally have time to ‘breathe‘ and enjoyed preparing breakfast slow and steady without the need to rush. We’ve not enjoyed a good breakfast for a very long time now. Today, we finally have breakfast like a King I like to sprinkle some cheese on the sausage when it’s still hot and let the cheese melt… Yummy! But unfortunately today, we ran out of cheese Mushroom [...]

Thank you Mummy Moon
Was going through my fellow bloggers’ entries in my blog roll when I stumbled upon this picture in Mummy Moon‘s blog. It startled me a sec there as I’ve never seen Darling crafting before. NEVER! When I saw this pic, I realised it has always been Ethan and I crafting together, everyday. But on that fortunate ParenThots Family Day, Darling saw how busy I was that he lend me a helping hand. And you know [...]

Do I have to remove it?
My rascal is getting rascal-er by the day! He treats the couch as his play area. The above picture was taken when he was watching television. Tell me, what do I do? Do I have to remove the couch? Reprimanding doesn’t work as among all things in the house, the couch is his favourite. He eats, naps, reads and does everything there! He just discovered how fun the couch can be and I don’t wanna [...]

It’s that time of the year again..
when it will be jammed like crazy on the roads in the evenings and drivers’ most colorful characters can be seen decorating the already congested road. Don’t you agree? Starting tomorrow, if you happen to be on the road somewhere in the evening, you’ll see how high-tempered drivers are. A little delay in moving your car at the traffic lights will result in endless honking; not forgetting the crazy traffic jam that can drive basically [...]

Teens and the difficult years
How old are your kids? Mine has just turned 3 and is still cute He is still our little bundle of joy; bringing sunshine and smiles to our face every second of the day. I dread to imagine what will happen say ten years from now when he gets into his teenage years. I do hope that he’ll stay grounded and will still be as nice or better. The recent teen drug statistic scares the [...]

It drizzled a little when we were about to leave the house but as we got nearer to location (Padang Astaka, PJ) it was bright and sunny By the time we arrived it was 9am sharp and visitors were already enjoying themselves around with the games provided. My booth Kids turned up in droves for the Sunshine workshop. I eventually had to make a last minute change when we ran out of ‘Sunshine’ and kids [...]

Owl has neck pain
That is Krys’ owl done at the Studio several hours ago. What caught my attention was when Irene said the owl had slanted head – a condition sometimes associated with common issues like spinal stenosis, herniated disc, degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis or spondylosis. Maybe that owl need some kind of neck collars Just kidding, the owl was just trying to pose sexy If you are suffering from radiculopathy – a description of a problem in [...]

Wind deflectors
Drivers out there, can you tell me what’s that in the picture shown above? I’ve always wondered why cars have them and what they are for. I’m an idiot when it comes to cars and their accessories and even more of an idiot when it comes to driving them! And then Darling got a task to test several cars on highway to see if they emit loud noises. Driving on ordinary city roads won’t make [...]

He is even off diapers during playground and nap time BUT I made him wear diapers when we go out. The reason?

Of course I can! After all I’m already approaching 50! Writing my own name is nothing to shout about UNLESS I can write them in Chinese… now… jeng jeng jeng.. THAT will be an accomplishment! As bad my command of Chinese is, my writing capability is even worse! Negative.. nothing! Not a single stroke…. *shake head* Anyway, Ethan can now write his own name. I know there’s also nothing to shout about (that’s why I’m [...]
