A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Not me but my 7.5YO girl. I got a shock of my life about 2 weeks ago when I touched her palm. I felt as if I was touching the hands of my grandfather or the hands of a heavily labored construction worker for the texture of her hands felt no different. I was trying…
Every night before going to bed, I will pray with my 3 girls. This morning, Sherilyn told me that she prayed with her baby sister the night before as I was still working on the computer. Sherilyn told me that this was Baby’s prayer: Dear Father Jesus In Heaven Please don’t let daddy crash his…
“Scooby Dooby Doo where are you, we need your o o rrr help…..!!” Up until today, the Scooby Doo cartoon jingle still jingles in my head very vividly. Scooby Doo, the funny and helpful big brown dog was my favorite cartoon when I was a child. When I saw Scooby Doo tri-color pasta at Cold…
The doctor who operated on Baby’s eye chalazion was himself a patient of recurrent eye chalazion when he was a little boy. He, too, had his eyes operated on several times when he was a child. The pain that he went through as a little boy had prompted him to be an eye doctor or…
When my kids, especially Alycia (who is the most fussy eater of the three) get bored with fried noodles, fried rice, noodles soup and sandwiches for lunch, I make them something that all of them love to bits – sushi and California rolls.

Baby is a very inquisitive toddler. She asks very logical questions all the time. These days, I get a lot of whys, whats, how and whens from her. She will ask me things like what does a fly eat, where does the snake sleep, how does an analog tv work, why can’t we go to…
After the birth of Alycia my eldest daughter, my boops were in the best looking shape ever! I was really proud of my assets but the happiness did not last long. After the birth of girl #2 and #3, my once pride and joy shrunk! I had read somewhere that using the breast pump will…
My girls are great fans of Japanese food, just like their daddy. Japs food can be really expensive. So I make my own sushi and chawan mushi for my 3 pernickety eaters. Besides saving cost, what makes me happy and satisfied is seeing my 3 little ones chomping down their food happily. My next try…
Once, Alycia who saw some skydivers ‘flying’ in the sky told me that she would like to try skydiving. I told her NO. There is no way I will allow her to try this high-risk and high-adrenaline rush activity, even if she was insured with skydivers life insurance. I have read of freak accidents where…
