Bento Mom?

Cute bento

I went to Daiso with Ethan again yesterday. I tell you, each time I enter Daiso, I’ll come out so much poorer! I’ve always told myself NOT to go to Daiso. JANGAN MASUK DAISO! But tak menjadi… Whenever I’m in One Utama OR The Curve, sure masuk jugak Daiso.. sigh…  *macam kena jampi* Anyway, bought a zillion stuffs for Ethan. That boy can really shop in Daiso. “Mummy, this one can-ah? RM5 ONLY!” Yeah right… [...]

Of birds and the bees

Today is a not so okay day for me. We went to the playground as usual in the evening but look what we found? Bees and the hive! Horrifying! Called the bomba immediately. Imagine if those bees got provoked. Dare not even think what can happen! Quickly went back home and shut all windows and doors. On the way home, a bird SHYTTED on my head! wth! A very ONG day for me indeed! -.- [...]

Candylicious Is Evil

Candylicious

The first time I set foot in Candylicious was in Singapore years ago. I love their get-up as they are so cutely decorated. Everything in it looks so sweetly done! Not too long ago, Candylicious landed in my second home, 1 Utama. It has been a while but I’ve never stepped foot in it. Why should I for all they sell are tooth-decaying products. They even sell soft sweets in the shape of DENTURES! What [...]

Our Chap Goh Mei (and Thaipusam) in Genting

Genting Highlands

We have a long weekend to enjoy this time around, haven’t we? 4 days of continuous break! I wanted to balik kampung but due to the several open houses that we are supposed to attend, we had to stay back in KL. Nevermind-lah, at least I can slave over catch up with housework and spend quality time with family @_@ Today Darling woke up and asked us if we want to go up Genting. Ethan [...]

MOUSE the CAT

Myles bathing

The first question that came to mind when we first learnt that my nieces has adopted a cat and name it Mouse, we wondered, “Who the heck would call their cat MOUSE?” But then my niece told us that the cat’s name is Myles not Mouse! I first blogged about Myles here. Just look at how he drinks his milk. The cat can hold his own bottle yo! Now Myles is much bigger. Almost an [...]

Darling’s a hopeless ROMANTIC!

I read FB updates everyday and Tweets occasionally. I see couples exchanging lovey dovey updates or tweets all the time. Darling and I are nothing like that. Though I call him Darling and he calls me Sayang, that’s about it. You won’t see any PDA from us in public and the worst comment that we’ve received is from a stranger who thought that Darling and I are siblings! >_< Today, I found out that the [...]

JoJoBa Spa: Valentine’s Day Couple Chocolate Treatment

Jojoba Spa

From Xmas to CNY and now into Valentine’s Day. The clock seems to be ticking so quickly. Valentine’s Day falls on the 14th February every year but it has always been a habit of Darling and I to celebrate it earlier as food is ridiculously expensive on that day itself. This year we did something different. Since we’ve been pigging out since Christmas, we decided to do something else besides eating. We decided to go [...]

It’s officially the year of the Dragon now. I welcomed it in my sleep! For the very first time in ages, I actually went to bed before midnite without even trying to stay awake to usher the Dragon… For the very first time this year too we tossed REAL yee sang at home! For the past years we have been tossing yee sang at home without the YEE but this year my SIL bought the [...]

98.8 Chinese New Year album

98.8 Chinese New Year album

Every Chinese New Year, we will be awaken by the loud Dong Dong Chiang on TV. My Dad will deliberately blast the TV so loud just to annoy us. He is always the early bird where else we always sleep in as we only go to bed at 3am the earliest during CNY. It has been a ritual of his to blast the TV by 10am if we are still not awake. You’ll never be [...]

BaoBei Reading Wonderland : Update at 5 months

It has been FIVE months since Ethan first started going to BaoBei. A week after I published his update at 2.5 months, he brought home another set of cards that consists of 11 word cards. I did not recorded a video then as it was only 11 words. After that initial set of 30, then 42 and later 11, he brought home 66 new cards several days ago! Total that means he has mastered 149 [...]

Of broken resolution and a flooded kitchen

HoHo Steamboat

1 January 2012 had been awesome. We met up with Darling’s friends and went for Steamboat at Ho Ho Steamboat, Kota Damansara. One of Darling’s friend suffered a burn on his wrist after my hot spoon accidentally touched his hand while he was trying to scoop out some noodles and his reflex caused the soup to splash all over his wrist He remembered reading something about treating burns using egg white so we did just [...]

MY Birthday

Cutie bear

This Christmas was a GREAT one as I was with my family! We made our way back to my hometown in Malacca on Saturday only to be caught in a horrible jam that took us almost 5 hours to arrive our destination that usually takes only about 2 hours on ordinary days! I arrived just in time to see this: My sis and her two daughters already BBQ-ing.. NICE! That only means that FOOD is [...]

The fon dropped and it broke!

Ethan is having a one week break from school and is now with me 24/7. Gone are the mornings when I have 2 whole hours all by myself to update my blog and blog hop. Now, the first thing I do is prepare breakfast, then do laundry, then cook lunch, then wash dishes, then house chores that can go on and on and never end and when I finally have the time, I’ll play with [...]

Shopping for Christmas : Trudy and Teddy

Trudy and Teddy

*48 hours sticky post* I remember fondly 7 months ago when we were first introduced to Trudy and Teddy apparel. I fell in love with their European style instantly! When they organised their first tea party in June, we were privileged to be amongst their invited guests. We were given a budget of RM300 to select the apparels for our kid to parade in their fashion parade during the tea party. It was a whole lot of fun [...]

Why Ostriches Bury Their Heads in Sand?

Hide n Seek

LoL! I was playing Hide n Seek with Ethan today when it was HIS turn to HIDE. After saying, “Ready or not, here I come!” I went around the house only to see THIS! Hahahahaha! It’s exactly like the fiction ‘Why Ostriches Bury Their Heads in Sand’! Just because he can’t see me, he thinks I can’t see him too? Muahahahhahaha… too cute this boy!

Marketing Gimmick

Honey Stars

Was in Jusco after dinner the other day with Ethan when he saw this: It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know that boys LOVE rockets! So when Ethan saw that Honey Stars now comes in new ROCKET shape, he pestered me to get that for him. Apa boleh buat, since he loves cereals I see no harm in getting him this as I usually get him the normal Honey Stars anyway. But when I [...]

FOOD BLOGGERS EAT FOR FREE!

food photography

I’m pretty pissed at a comment I got in FB today – “you are a food blogger who eats for free and treated with care”. Only fellow bloggers understands how much WORK we BLOGGERS put into our blog that nothing is actually FREE. On readers’ point of view, all we do is eat and brag. What they don’t see is how much work it goes before that entry is published. Let me take you behind [...]
