the past week.

been out of “sight” for a while and i have been really busy lately. of trying to get a life.

have been desperate to lose some of the fats that i am donning (everyone tells me im fatter!), so i have been exercising!

swimming x 3 + jogging x 2 in the past week had been a real feat. all that, plus planning for belle’s hen night on saturday. it’s quite a blast i reckon, but i shall say that in another post (with pictures!).

here’s some random pictures for the week.


if this my favourite fruit since i was a kid. i never quite know the english name for it, but it has always been known to me as “buah long long”. It’s a crunchy fruit (similar to the green mangoes or the harder guavas), and it is hardly on sale in singapore. You can easily find these in malaysia though.

dip it with a little salt and its heaven!

you can see how the plant looks like here (courtesy of blogger lam chun see

and where do i get the fruits here? right at my doorstep! my brother and me has been complaining for the longest time about not getting to eat the fruit and my mum saw the plant one day and bought it home and we have been enjoying it since!


my hk tomato plant has been surviving well too! and see all that seedlings by the side? no. that’s not weeds, but a whole bunch of seedlings that i planted from seeds. so happy to see them growing!

this is something that i havent been doing of late. BEING CHEEKY! trying to leave my colleague an “ah long” note to tease her but apparently, i’m not quite good as a “loan shark” because there is a “typo”. i wrote “OMP$” instead of “O$P$”. not pro enough.. definitely must practice more.

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.
