A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Cassandra can sing pretty well for her age. At 2years 7 months, she can sing over a dozen nursery rhymes, folk songs in Malay, jingles of cartoons and movies in English, Mandarin, Malay and even in Japanese. When Cassandra and Sherilyn get together in a jovial mood, I am assured to be entertained by their…
My all-time favorite chicken dish is chicken cooked with turmeric – in all styles, be it deep fried or braised. My dad can dish up a really tasty braised turmeric chicken dish with lots of chopped turmeric and onions. During my confinement, I requested the confinement lady to cook turmeric with chicken or pork almost…
My 2 older girls have interests, likings and characters of polar opposites. Sherilyn my princess wannabe loves princesses, fairies, wands, everything pink, dolls and all things sweet and cute. The other day we were at the mall and she went gaga when we brought her into a shop that sells pretty dresses for girls. She…
I bought a Dole Tropical Gold sweet pineapple from Jusco the other day. It was delicious, juicy and sweet but it cost a whopping RM7 each!! Last week, I saw it at a fruit stall and it was selling at RM7.80 each and I bought it too. I love sweet pineapples and can even polish…
The first 14 months of Baby’s life involved endless hospital trips, screaming moments on exam tables each time the doctors poked her body or inserted tubes into her down under and hospital stays. Not a day goes by without me thinking of those days. I thank God that all is well now and I pray…
I wonder if the best fat burners really work. Well, maybe they may work initially but will they really work on a long term basis? And will there be any side effects on one’s body, especially on the kidneys? I will always remember the case of the Singaporean actress who lost both her kidneys to…
It’s the time of the month again and darn it, some acne had popped out from my flawless skin, especially around my chin area and temples. I remember I would freak out each time zits erupted on my face when I was still working. I was a PA to a Datuk and I had to…
There was an anniversary sale at our favorite bakery 2 days ago. Being a ‘kiasu’ buyer, my hubs bought a huge blueberry cheese cake that cost over RM50. But there was a 28% discount. Gosh, the cheese cake tasted sinfully delish. Being a cheese cake lover, I have been gorging on the cheese cake everyday….
Baby was finally weaned off my boops 3 days ago. It was easier than I had imagined, though she fussed a little in the wee hours of the morning. I needed to give her loads of hugging, kissing and verbal reassurance that mummy still loves her very much despite being deprived of her comfort tools….
Yesterday being a public holiday, we spent over 5 hours shopping at Mid Valley Megamall and hubby burnt a hole in his wallet. Shopping with 3 kids is no laughing matter. From lunch to desserts, shopping for the kids’ shoes, for hubby’s own shoes and groceries, everything involved money. I bought a pair of pretty…
