A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Yesterday I could not hit the gym or jog round the neighborhood as my hubs had to leave the house very early for work. And I don’t trust my helper with my 2 younger kids at home without an adult at home. So I worked out at home! First I arched my back and did…
I found by chance a way to prepare fish cake (yue paeng) without shallow frying or deep frying the fish paste. The other day, I decided to dump the whole big chunk of homemade fish paste into my pot of beet root-carrot-pork ribs soup that was still cooking in the stove. I wanted to cut…
Recently I bought some shoes from an online store. I bought a pair first as I was apprehensive of the quality and sizing. I was very pleased with what I received and I ordered more pairs. Online stores are such a blessing to busy people who don’t have the time to do shopping in shopping…
Ever since I joined Facebook, I hardly ever send cards to my friends and loved ones anymore. I still have a stack of birthday cards, Christmas cards, save the date cards and Chinese New Year cards but I guess these will be kept and turned into antique cards. With the advent of the internet and…

That’s because most of us don’t eat the recommended number of veggie and fruits servings that we should everyday. So we need supplements to give us the vitamins and minerals our body needs. If you can afford it, do get…
It was only a fluke and lasted only for a day that Baby didn’t want my boops. The next day, she was back to herself again, searching for my boops and getting addicted to them again, sigh… I notice that whenever my parents are here or whenever there are other people in the house, she…
I had a colleague who had Rosacea on her face. Initially everyone thought she had bad acne on her face as her face was always red and had swells. Finally she saw a skin specialist who diagnosed her as suffering from Rosacea and he gave her a long dose of rosacea treatment. Rosacea is often…
Now that I have almost weaned Baby off my boops, I will have no one to suck away all my fats! And I don’t have the privilege to eat all that I want without fear of gaining weight. These days, I don’t have the time to run every morning without fail like I used to…
