Mummies unite over CNY.
So, I caught up with a bunch of mummies and their families over CNY. This group of mummies is quite dear to me. We ‘met’ over the net many years back, and bonded through blogging. This blog have brought me a lot of friendships and I really appreciate how it opened many doors for me. This bunch of mummies, we went from discussing weddings, to our first kids, to 2 kids for most of us, and now, the kids are all running around! At one point, 4 of us were having our maternity leave together (our kids are days apart) and it was a lot of fun! We grown from this……

Happy Chinese New Year!
Here’s wishing you a Happy Chinese New Year from my family to yours! I know this should have been done like 8 days ago, but I have been diligent.. Diligent in spending time with the family, connecting with the people that matter. Spending time with myself, doing the things I enjoy most. Diligent in letting some things go, chill, sit back and really relax. And, sleep early. It’s hasn’t been easy, making a deliberate change to my lifestyle and not touch my computer that much. But can I share that it has been liberating? I have done so much in the past few weeks that I suddenly feel like I…

Chinese Calligraphy and Finger Painting
The boys recently tried their hands on Chinese calligraphy and finger painting when we were invited to preview FOX’s new CNY collection in their store. Oh boy, they both had a lot of fun! By the way, if you have yet to do much clothes shopping for your kids this CNY, do keep your eyes peeled to the end of the post. You might just win an outfit for your kid! I never saw my hyper kids so attentive and so glued to their seats before, so it was really refreshing observing them throughout the class. The class instructor brought them through the basics, the couplets and paintings on display,…

Reunion dinner with the family.
I am supposed to be in Singapore with the hubby, but I should be back soon to spend it with him. Wanted to pop in to visit my grandpa and spend the usual CNY like the past years, reckon I wont have much of the opportunity in the future and am thankful that my hubby and in-laws are ok with it! Nothing fantastic about the reunion dinner to shout about. Every year, its the same dishes ever since I knew how to talk as a kid (I can name out all the dishes without batting an eyelid). But, it’s these same dishes that make the occasion special, a familiar attachment…

Aiyah!
I was going to photoblog with my n95 when it died on me a few minutes back with the parting message – battery is empty. Please charge your phone. =( That’s what happens when you have 2 phone lines. You neglect the one that you seldom touch anymore. Anyway.. I was going to blog about my crocs (new! And brown!). I am wearing it to work today and paired it with my white button down dress. I think I look like a nurse! What was supposed to be my shoes for the cny, it ended up on my mum’s feet. She didn’t have a new pair of shoes so I…
