Midnight cake delivery anyone?
Life’s too short to say no to cakes. Are you one of those who loves a piece of cake without a special occasion? I am! I love having cakes whenever, and I actually crave for them all the time. I eat it for breakfast, as a snack to go with my coffee in the afternoon or just whenever I feel like it, even if it’s in the middle of the night. And wow, I just found out there *IS* midnight cake delivery! (Psst, I also create occasions just to eat cake, like celebrating birthdays for my soft toy.) Are you just as piqued with the midnight delivery? Totally can surprise…

Conversations with the husband #19 – I don’t need your opinion.
[Update: 2 Aug 2020 – Found a draft post dated exactly 4 years ago, and thought, might as well post it anyway.] Shopping with hubby on my birthday. Hubby was trying to be sweet and asked if I needed him to stay around while I shopped. I said no. He said, but I can offer you my opinions on the garments. I said, I actually don’t need the opinions.. I just need the money to pay. If you have the money to spare, you may stay. Husband scoots off immediately. Hahahah! Thanks husband, that’s *really* sweet of you.

8 Crabs Seafood Kitchen – Get delicious Chilli Crabs delivered to your door.
Confession: I really love my seafood and it’s hard for me to choose between eating crabs, oysters, clams, cockles, fishes or lobsters. But truth is, I haven’t eaten a crab in a long time… So long, I don’t remember the last. Crabs require a bit more effort/time to eat and hands are often dripping with sauces. Mix that with being mum of 3 constantly needing to clean up after some kid, it’s little wonder why I haven’t been eating. Until my discovery of crabs delivery during circuit breaker period. Imagine having restaurant-grade crabs in the comfort of my home and having all the time to eat. 8 Crabs Seafood Kitchen…

Brand new month, brand new hair!
Hello June. Hadn’t expect you to come so soon. Didn’t we just say hi to January? 2018 has been interesting and challenging in many ways. P1 kid, brand new baby, 3 kids in 3 different stages and way too much of solo parenting because the husband has a mistress called “studies”. I just cannot imagine the madness when i head back to work in 30 days. I’m in serious denial. Meanwhile, there is something that I have been cutting quite a bit! My hair! In January, I snipped off a total of 6-7 inches off my tresses, simply because I didn’t want to deal with it during confinement. So my…

The story behind Leia’s name.
Leia. I get a lot of questions on her name…”Why Leia?” Guess it is apt that I dedicate a blog post on why we chose the name. After having 2 boys with names starting with “J” (Jerry & Jerome), I guess everyone expects the baby’s name to start with a “J” like my boys. Maybe something like a Jasmine, Jolene, Jacqueline, Jerlyn or something. Which reminds me, I never really documented the reason why my boys’ names started with “J”. So, before I unravel the reason behind the name Leia… maybe I should share how we got started with names starting with a “J”. I shared this many times in…

Leia’s Birth Story…
After almost 2 months, I finally found little pockets of time to work on a post about Leia’s birth story. Leia’s birth probably caught A LOT of you by surprise… I didn’t tell people about it (even close friends or relatives), and those people who knew were those that see me frequently. Even so, when enquired, I usually tell them I am fat (till they finally figure it’s not). And then I go “Tadah!” with this IG post on 24 Feb, 2018, about 5hrs right after I have given birth. What that also means is that this pregnancy is not documented, at least not on the social media front. WHY?…

Things Jerome says #2 – I’ll tell you a secret!
Wow. In Jan last year, I documented the first post on “Things Jerome Says” and then, I totally went missing on this space. Bad mummy. So, this kid does say a lot of funny stuff on a daily basis actually.. but obviously mummy me have been really tardy in blogging in down for memories so i am just gonna try harder in 2018 to jot down these precious memories. My kids have this habit of heading to my mini walk-in wardrobe where my weighing scale is and weigh them occasionally. So, today… der told Jerry to go weigh himself because he thinks he has put on some weight. He weighs…

The life of my primary one kid.
(Yay! I recovered my blog from the hackers. Police investigations are still underway, updates on that soon.) January 2018 has come and gone. It has been a really interesting month – Jerry starting primary school, the family having a new routine, the kids starting swimming classes, I stopped working (for now), my blog got hacked and Jerome turned 5 years old. Life has been… interesting. But first, back to my primary one kid. It’s been a month, and I don’t quite know what to make out of it. Each time I ask the kid how is school, his answer is always the same – “Like that lor”. When I probed…

My parenting style – empower the kids!
I’m back on the blog again! 2 weeks into 2018 and I hope I am making good progress in “reviving” my blog. It’s rather random, adhoc posts for now but I figure I just gotta start somewhere after being rusty for so long! My thoughts today is about empowering my kids – teaching them to fish rather than to hand them the fishes when they are hungry. I have come to realise, that in this fast paced and stressful environment that we parents are in today, we often make the mistake of “doing” stuff for our kids without even thinking about the consequences, or even aware if there is any…
