One of my new year resolution is to have home-cooked food more often. Throughout the entire year we only dined at home like once every week and that is so unhealthy. So to kick start the coming new year, I’m going to learn how to cook and the first thing to do is learn how to boil kick-ass nutritious yet delicious soup! :D Today we have the refreshing Old Cucumber Soup to start our day […]

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 […]

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 scouting through their lovely […]

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!

O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree! Thy leaves are so unchanging; Not only green when summer’s here, But also when ’tis cold and drear. O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree! Thy leaves are so unchanging! O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree! Much pleasure thou can’st give me; O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree! Much pleasure thou can’st give me; How often has the Christmas tree Afforded me the greatest glee! O Christmas Tree! O Christmas […]

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 […]

Was talking to Ethan last night before we slept. Told him that one day he’ll grow up, find a job of his own. Get a wife and have cute little babies with her. He looked at me with the most horrified look on his face and said, “Will I still be staying with U?” I said, “Most probably not as you’ll want to be with your wife then.. “ He said, “Then I don’t wanna […]

“The Restaurant that you didn’t know about…. Until NOW” That was what they wrote on their FB Page and I totally agree to it! I was privileged to be invited to the preview of Speakeasy’s Christmas Eve Set Dinner on Saturday and honestly speaking, I wasn’t quite aware of them UNTIL I stepped into the premise. Tucked in the ground floor of Ming Annexe Building, it is truly a hidden gem for I really like […]

Christmas at KLCC as usual is simple year after year. Nothing overly impressive, nothing outstanding. Just simple and nice. Ethan at KLCC Boxes of gifts as decoration Large Christmas tree and a rotating Santa Claus That’s all for Christmas at KLCC 2011. Check out my posts on the Christmas decorations over at: 1) Pavilion KL 2) Sunway Pyramid 3) One Utama 4) Mid Valley Megamall 5) The Curve and IPC (Ikano Power Centre) 6) The Gardens Mall 7) Tropicana City Mall 8 […]

We were privileged to be invited to dine at The Speakeasy Restaurant and Bar yesterday. The food is awesome and will definitely blog about it soon but for now, I would like to share with you what caught my eyes the moment we were seated. I was at awe with their decor. It is all hand-made and I am telling you, this is really awesome! I finally found someone who loves craft as much as […]

I was at GUESS Holiday 2011 Collection some time ago when they gave me this: GUESS Purse Hanger You know how ladies love to place their handbags behind them (sandwiched between their back and the chair) when they are having dinner? That is not quite safe. I can now hang my bag next to me and I did just that during the recent NAPBAS dinner :D I just take it out from my bag and […]

Exora Prime will be launch tomorrow. I went to have a look at it today. Jom tengok some pictures..

We were in One World Hotel last week for their Christmas Light Up Ceremony and also the launch of Grant-A-Wish for the children of House of Joy. The gifts for the children Some staffs of One World Hotel who are also sponsors to the kids awaiting the arrival of the children, aged 5 to 16 years old. The kids were treated to a special performance by a choir, presenting Christmas songs such as Jingle Bells […]

It’s almost a wordless post this is. Was in 1U when Ethan suddenly hopped inside that ‘hole’ and requested me to photograph him! I took out my iPhone 4 and started snapping… :) :P Peace! :D That’s the use of my iPhone4, for moments like this! I heard iPhone4s has better camera! I SO MUST GO GET IT! -.-

We did not go anywhere after Ethan’s class today. It was raining on and off the entire day that I got so lazy to go out. We stayed home and did sand art instead. Sand art can be rather messy so I got him to take off his shirt and pants. He still has his underwear ON okay? :P My neck went stiff *not forgetting the sore butt* after sitting there with him the entire hour […]

Today is a state holiday for the folks in Selangor. Darling needed to go to KL to meet a client so Ethan and I took this opportunity to tag along. Almost regretted though as it took us almost 2 hours to arrive KL due to the massive jam! I can balik kampung dy oh with that given time! But it’s okay, since Darling desperately needed to meet his client, we persevered and made it to […]

I can’t believe it that we actually went to Citta Mall today. This is only my second time here. But I am impressed with the outdoor Christmas decorations. Darling and Ethan at Citta Mall The outdoor Christmas decoration provides lots of photo opportunity BUT let it be warned that they are scattered around in the parking lot so PLEASE BE CAREFUL when taking pictures. Watch out for oncoming cars! Giant Santa and sleigh in the […]

Ethan loves Cars. His favourite is Lightning McQueen. He has 2 Lightning McQueen bags. 1 water tumbler. Numerous pants and tees, puzzles and lots more. Today, on a lazy Sunday morning, I added another McQueen into his collection – Pyssla Beads Lightning McQueen :D I found a YouTube tutorial for Lightning McQueen here and made some modification to suit us best. Lightning McQueen before ironing Lightning McQeen after ironing :D

Pavilion has one of the better Christmas decorations in town. Let’s have a look… Christmas @ Pavilion KL They have the Largest Real Lollipop by Sticky. Oops.. somebody ate the P in Pavilion and NO, it’s NOT Ethan :P Ariel view of the Xmas decor in Pavilion. So many people loitering on the staircase accompanied by beautiful Christmas trees :) Santa Claus is flowery! Rudolph not only has a red nose this year, he went RED […]

We were at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur yesterday to check out their Christmas decoration but what caught my attention more is the United Buddy Bears on display during its world tour outside Pavilion. The United Buddy Bears promote living together in peace and harmony and Malaysia is the first South-East Asian country to be chosen for its tour. I had a ‘beary’ great time walking from one painted bear to the other. These cheerful and colourful […]

Ello! I just got back from Pavilion to check out their Xmas decor and the United Buddy Bears. So NICE that we spent so many hours there and only got home after midnight. I don’t want my blog to turn into a pumpkin with no updates so here’s a quick one before I go to bed. I promise to give you the United Buddy Bears pictures tomorrow! Here’s the Christmas decoration at The Gardens Mall, […]

We went to Kites again for dinner last week. The last we dined there was during our wedding Anniversary a couple of months ago. I started my dinner with salad. Mango and Walnut Salad with Herb Dressing. Love the tangy herb dressing. Ethan picked all the walnuts! Makiroll. My favourite, sushi! Someone said I have the ‘sushi face’ that night. Dunno to take that as a compliment or what -.- Salmon Sushi. I had lots […]

It was a surprise that Darling brought Ethan and I to Mid Valley Megamall today. We don’t usually go to Mid Valley due to the jam and lack of parking but since he happens to pass by Mid Valley on the way to see a client today, he decides to drop us there :D First thing I did was to go buy a couple of movie tickets. After getting our tickets, we decided to check […]

While it is a norm for me to go from one mall to another to capture the magnificent decorations of the magical Christmas every year, it is NOT always that I encountered such effing stupid Guards in a Shopping Mall! Pardon my language but I am really pissed at what happened today. I was in Tropicana City Mall to catch a movie. The Muppets to be exact. On my way to meet a friend to […]

I love to go Christmas decor hunting come December as they are usually very beautiful. But for my own Christmas tree, I like to make my own ornaments. The satisfaction of seeing my handmade ornaments decorating my tree is simply priceless. I was in IKEA the other day and I saw this beautiful Dove. It seems easy enough to make so I tried it with the kids today in the studio. I drew the bird […]

Milestone : Today marks the FIRST time my two Darlings participated in a treasure hunt! This is the 2nd time for me with the 1st being during Mommy blogger’s outing in Aman Rimba, Janda Baik. We gathered in front of Marmalade, Publika. Each family were given a treasure box to store FIVE gold coins. The clues were super easy :D Sophia flagged us off and within minutes we got all FIVE gold coins! Ethan checking […]

You’ve seen that extremely cool pose of my Dad during my cousin’s wedding last month in this post. This month, another cousin of mine got married. This time I get to be part of it. She wanted her wedding theme to be of babies so I made her Giant Alphabet Cubes to be used in the photo booth. I used lots of recycled material for it. I cut cardboard boxes into 3 pieces of two’s […]

Splashing over the big blue is 1Utama’s Christmas theme this year. They kicked of their Christmas celebration with a spectacular launch by YB Elizabeth Wong on the 1 December 2011. I’m not too sure how the ocean has got anything to do with Christmas but it is a beautiful Winter Waterland indeed :D Shells, shells everywhere! Marine life takes centre-stage Lovely Love the lavishly strewn jewels on those shells! The submerryn’s feeling so AT HOME! :P […]

It’s that time of the year again to let the Christmas tree out of the closet and blow the dust off the box full of ornaments. This time around, I did NOTHING! The kids excitedly did EVERYTHING! :D They ambushed the box. Darling had to come and calm them down when things got out of hand. You know kids being kids, I grab, U grab, everybody grab grab! This is such a sweet scene. Kimmie […]

I was in Ikano a couple of days ago. Saw their Swedish Christmas decoration. I think it is not 100% done yet as it is still quite empty. Nevertheless, here are some pictures of the Christmas decoration in IPC this year. The Christmas house Ethan sitting on a log in front of the Christmas house Ethan on stage with a friend Hay and Julbock Ethan on a log again. What is Christmas without the log […]

The 1st of December is a very important day. Not only it being the first day of December, marking the last month of the year but it is also World AIDS Day. It is one of the most recognised international health days.  It’s the day dedicated to raising awareness of the AIDS pandemic caused by the spread of HIV infection. World AIDS Day this year is about “Getting to Zero.” Zero New HIV Infections. Zero Discrimination and […]

*Sticky post 48 hours* It’s a must for me to have a mug of hot drink each night while I work on the computer. More often than not my choice of drink is simply warm milk. It helps me sleep better at night. Tonight, as I am working on my PC, I looked at my mug of warm milk and started thinking. I’ve been drinking milk for as long as I can remember. I remembered […]

Ever since Ethan was born, I have been his barber. Four years without ever going to the barber for a haircut until today. I asked Ethan if he would like to have his hair cut by someone else besides me and straightaway he said, “YES!” I did not expect that at all.. I thought he would say NO. Call me bad but my immediate response was, “then you don’t want Mommy to cut your hair […]

The first time I dined in Fuzion was in July this year during the holy month of Ramadhan. I fell in love with the serenity of the place that I went back there earlier this month. Ethan was glad to be back at the spacious Fuzion, Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa too. Cosy setting for a small get-together An ideal place to hold a celebration with your loved ones. It will be nice to celebrate […]

My first mall decor hunt this year landed me in Sunway Pyramid. With less than 30 days to Christmas, the mall’s buzzing with shoppers and bargain hunters. I quite like the decor in Sunway this year. If last year they have giant snow globe, this year they have the full package. Reindeer, robin, snowman.. you name it, they’ve got it! Joyful Christmas @ Sunway Pyramid This is how a hobbit like me view the Christmas […]

Darling got me something today. At RM31.90 each I’d be angry too! But okay lagi lah as the quality is much better than those pasar malam ones. Anyway, since he has the heart to get me that, I’d better give him some face and wear it for the world to see. So ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, here’s presenting…. my pair of very ANGRY BOOBS! >_< He definitely ain’t getting any of those boobs today! Take a hint Darling, lingerie dear, LINGERIE! […]

After the huge success in bringing Peter Pan and Magical Musicals to our shore @ Sunway Lagoon Amphitheatre, we are privileged to catch yet another West End production – Aladdin The Musical. We were there for the Gala Premiere and what can I say? After enjoying Peter Pan last Christmas and Magical Musicals back in June this year, I have got to say Aladdin the Musical is the BEST of them all! A timeless tale told […]

I’m so HAPPY! I finally found a pair of open toe pumps that comes in size 3, MY size! Yeay! The hobbit can HAS shooooooe! That is the result of being out of the house the ENTIRE day! I went out in the morning to send Ethan to class and shopped around Giza for shoes but nothing suits me. Went to 1U with Ethan after his class and after hours and hours of wandering around […]

The Grand Saisaki Group, renowed for its chain of healthy Japanese buffet restaurants, recently officially opened its 5th outlet in the Shogun & Saisaki family at Soho KL @ Solaris Mont Kiara. Built on a floor size of 29,000 square feet, the outlet offers a multitude of Japanese cuisines for the palette.

GERAM! No matter what I do, nasal spray kah, multi-vitamin kah, Clarinase kah, hot drinks kah, sexercise and lots of bedminton kah… I’m still sniffling! *the last part was just to test you if you are really paying attention and reading my post instead of just browsing through it and dropping comments* :P As long as there is a change of temperature; from the comfort and warmth of my house to the air-conditioned car – I’ll […]

Better late than never aye? Hehe.. Earlier this month a number of us Nuffnangers and Churpers were invited to have teatime with the Nuffies and .. *do we call them Churpies?!* at Chatime Publika, Solaris Hartamas. Carol and Ethan at Eat Food Village Timothy Tiah and Audrey Tim asked me that million dollar question that day, “Who’s taller – Audrey or me?” Of course I am taller that evening as I had my super heels on while […]

Good Sunday morning peeps! I’ve been down and out for the past 24 hours. Did not eat anything yesterday as what goes in will surely come out again from my mouth… But today I woke up feeling hungry and finally have a little more appetite compared to yesterday. Cooked this mee suah for myself, Darling and Ethan and that is breakfast. What about you? What’s for breakfast? Mee suah with anchovies stock I boiled some […]

Taiwanese Food Promotion at Tai Zi Heen Prince Hotel & Residence Kuala Lumpur We feel like going Taiwanese tonight so we drove all the way to Tai Zi Heen (since they are having their Taiwanese food promotion from 18 to 30 November 2011) to satisfy our cravings. Dried daikon radish omelet We started off with the dried daikon radish omelet. Pan fried egg whipped with three-months preserved dried daikon radish, a great start to our dinner […]

Ethan loves playing with building blocks. LEGO is too expensive so I bought him FACO instead. He loves it nevertheless so.. :D He can really sit there for hours counting and building according to the picture given and try making up his own creation from time to time. Let’s see what he did with the building blocks shall we? Alligator building blocks Reindeer Sea Lion Camel.. on wheels? >_

Lots have been said about Teochew cuisine though I have never tried one myself. I am particularly intrigue with the fact that Teochew cuisine is generally regarded as being healthy and they are well known for their seafood and vegetarian dishes. What a delight I had when we were invited to have a Teochew dinner in Zuan Yuan, One World Hotel with the gang last week. I got so excited that I dressed both Ethan […]

I posted the above picture in my Craft FB Page the other day and several readers asked me where I got those cute cookie cutters. It is not a cookie cutter actually. It is an egg mold. I blogged about the cute eggs before. Read it here. I’m sure you have seen this egg mold before? If you don’t, it’s time for you to go to Daiso as I got mine from there. Two for […]

I made this for Ethan’s snack today. I call this roti bakar ‘Butter Toast’ as what I did was spread butter on bread and toast it on a hot pan. Sprinkled some sugar on top and yummeh out came the most unhealthy snack ever!! It’s not the same as toasting plain bread in a toaster and spreading butter after it tossed out of the toaster. I don’t like that. I like toasting buttered bread on […]

This is the continuation to our amazing 6th Anniversary Getaway courtesy of Holiday Inn Kuala Lumpur Glenmarie. After enjoying the awesome room and splendid time splashing in the beautiful pool we got rather hungry. We hurried back to our room for a quick shower before heading to The Mix for our dinner.

So what if Justin Bieber has a street in Texas renamed after him just because an 11 year old girl became Mayor for a day? I have my own street too and mind you, it is not located at ANY chaplang area but one of the most high-profile residency in Singapore. Merryn Road is located in Bukit Timah Singapore. Bukit Timah is considered the most expensive district in Singapore. Don’t play play. How often do you get […]

By the time Ethan is old enough to drive, cars will be running on electric instead of fuel. He has already set his eyes on this particular car that has always been MY favourite! I’ve always pestered Darling to get me this with the reason that THIS might be the ONLY car that I will dare to drive as it suits my size perfectly but Darling always brushes me off saying that it is not […]

There is this lane in SS15, Subang Jaya that is loaded with Taiwanese dessert house! Take your pick – Chatime, Snowflake or BlackBall? I’ve tried Chatime *not a fan* and needless to say I’m a die-hard addict of Snowflake so should I try BlackBall? To try or not to try? That is the question… OF COURSE MUST TRY-lah! How else would I know if it is any good or not right? First and foremost, though BlackBall […]

Darling was telling me about Happy Feet 2,  gushing on how cute it is and how we MUST bring Ethan go watch that. I was in front of the PC, nodding my head like as if I was listening to him =__= and then I saw THIS! Argh! MUST watch! I told Darling, “Shh.. shh… we watch THIS first!”  It’s going to be screened in 1Utama, my second home so Dai Dai oso must try […]

When I gave up my job to be a Stay At Home Mother, I almost grew cobwebs all over me. I was at home day in, day out without any interaction to the outside world. I got so jaded that I almost went crazy. Back then I did not even know what is the meaning of a BLOG or BLOGGING. My only time going online is to chat in MSN and Yahoo Messenger and mind […]
