Handprint Face Mask
Last Sunday’s craft on Chiki Boom’s Saya Kreatif is making a face mask out of colored construction paper. As usual, Ethan and I will make a sample before actually teaching the kids. Anyone going for a masquerade ball? :P First, trace the outline of your hand. Repeat on another piece of paper, preferable of different colour. Cut. Repeat on the other paper. Paste both hands together. Decorate. Paste a chopstick at the back and the […]

Facebook’s FoodBook
This past few days have been extremely hot during the day and then suddenly it pours heavily come evenings. The sudden change of weather is causing havoc to my system as it is messing with my mind! Actually checking my FB newsfeed can also drive me crazy with all those food pics. I will suddenly think of big fat sloppy burger or bubbling hot steamboat after seeing any random friends’ postings. I can honestly say […]

Happy Valley Seafood Restaurant, Genting
During our 2D/1N stay in Genting for the YNOT Graffiti event, we were all treated like VIPs especially when it comes to food. We also got the opportunity to try Genting Outdoor Theme Park’s latest ride – The Waves. This ride is ultra cool I tell you where you’ll be covered with a huge blue blanket midway and then just as it opens for you to see the world, the ride goes backwards and you […]

Telling Time
Ethan loves wearing watch. He has several watches, some still functioning, some the strap kaput-ed and some just went missing >_< Most of his watches are just RM5, bought from Daiso. I don’t buy him expensive watches as I don’t see the need for a kid to strap on hundreds of dollars on his wrist. While shopping the other day, Ethan saw this Adidas watch that he loves very much. It was priced at over […]

Personal Space
I appreciate my personal space in public especially when I’m on the escalator. Whenever I get onto the escalator I’ll always stand two steps behind the person in front of me but in the case of a super crowded escalator such as those in KLCC I’ll just take ONE step back but I’ll never, ever stand NEXT to a stranger on an escalator. To me, that is invasion of privacy. That is why I get […]

Ethan on Chiki Boom’s ‘Saya Kreatif’ TV2
Ethan’s very first appearance on Chiki Boom’s ‘Saya Kreatif’ segment was aired last Sunday but we missed it as we were up in Genting celebrating the famous Thailand’s water festival, Songkran. This week, we made it a point to stay home to catch the second episode of Chiki Boom’s latest season. The episode this week touches on the kids’ journey in FRIM hence the call for a nature art. They did a dried leaf craft […]

Delicious Fried Instant Noodles Recipe
I’m a very happy woman today. Darling left to work with a smile on his face saying he had a delicious breakfast, better than those he gets from the Mamak stall! Oh me, oh my! It’s not everyday I get such a compliment from him so you can imagine me floating in the air smiling like a silly little girl. I’m so happy that I’m blogging this out immediately! LoL! I ‘accidentally’ woke up a […]

Luncheon Meat Egg roll
I’ve been wanting to post this up for some time now but never had the time until today :D My mother prepares this simple meal for us often as all of us loves it. She gave me 2 cans of luncheon meat the last time I went back hometown so I thought of trying making this myself. This is the first time I’m making this so let’s see how it turns out! Luncheon meat roll […]

Genting Water Festival 2013
Apart from the awesome YNOT Graffiti Showdown event in Genting, we also got to celebrate Songkran aka Water Festival last weekend. It was our first time celebrating Songkran up above and I thought these girls are really something to be wearing bikini in the freezing cold weather! I was curious to see if they have goosebumps from the cool breeze but it is impolite to stare hence my question was never answered @_@ I shove […]

RWGenting YNOT Graffiti Art Finale
We were up in Genting last weekend for the YNOT Graffiti Art Finale. Resort World Genting is very kind to provide accommodation, meals and transportation for us bloggers. We did not follow their bus though and drove up ourselves as we planned to stay back late on Sunday. We were given a room in First World Hotel and to my surprise, it is quite spacious. I stayed in First World decades ago and as I […]

The Unexpected Romantic Weekend
We were up in Genting for a 2D/1N retreat over the weekend courtesy of Resort World Genting and Nuffnang. We are actually there to cover the YNOT Graffiti Art Finale event. Cynthia and her princess Breanna are among the many Nuffnang bloggers who attended the event. While I was busy covering the event, Ethan and Breanna hit it off like they are the best of pals! They were the only two kids ‘covering’ that event […]

Pyssla beads cake
We were given a task to come out with a cake made of boxes. I immediately replied, ‘Impossible!’. Back then I had cereal boxes in mind and was thinking how the heck am I supposed to turn those boxes into cakes?! Our client refused to accept my ‘NO CAN DO’ answer and insists that we come out with something in two days time! @_@ I was so stressed! Today is the final day for submission […]

Sweet and Sour Prawn Recipe
I have more time to spare in the kitchen now that Ethan is attending kindergarten. Ethan loves sweet and sour fish while Darling loves sweet and sour crab but I’ve never tried cooking sweet and sour prawns before until several days ago. This is the outcome. Very yummy with lots of gravy to drench the rice. Ethan and I love our rice to be wet so I deliberately cook up extra gravy. Sweet and Sour […]

How do you take your medications?
When you get sick, what are your preferred choice of medication? Since young, I am very bad at swallowing pills. I get car sick each time we traveled from Lumut to Melaka. Back then I was as young as Ethan and I had to take ‘travelling pills’ to stop me from throwing up during the journey. My mother had to ‘break’ the pills into powdery form and that actually makes it even worse as the […]

Water babies
For the past months, we have a new routine. Come Saturday we’ll pack our bags and head over to our weekend home for a swim and maybe some gym but mostly swimming as Ethan doesn’t go to gym. It’s the weekend and I’ve not blogged on weekends for so long now but I just feel like sharing these pictures today :) Oops.. Photo bomb there!! >_< We bought Ethan his first pair of goggles and […]

Second chance at preschool
If you have been following my blog or my FB, you’ll know that we enrolled Ethan for Kindy for the very first time this year in March. Never in our dreams did we expect it would be such a nightmare. You can read about our, or rather Ethan’s nightmare here and here. The last straw was when that particular boy poked Ethan’s ear with a sharp pencil and STILL no action was taken against that […]

Kampar Claypot Chicken Rice Recipe
Last week during the one week school holidays, I was on a cooking spree. I tried loads of new recipes. One of them was this Kampar Claypot Chicken Rice by Debbie Teoh. I watched her YouTube tutorial and it looked so easy, with most of the ingredients not being too fancy that I have all of them in my kitchen at all times (except the claypot >_<) Chicken marinate ingredients: 1) 500 grams chicken whole […]

Dr. Ethan
Ethan’s favourite companion, Yippie got injured late last night. It was late and I was too lazy to help him patch it up so I told him we’ll look into it the next day. Ethan went to bed sad … This morning when he woke up, the first thing he asked me is what can we do to ‘heal’ his injured friend so I told him that his friend needed to be warded for an […]
