A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
I have not had a pap smear and full medical check up for almost 4 years! I know you are probably raising both your eye brows now and shaking your head in disbelief. How could this health freak mommy do this to herself!? How could I have done this to myself?! I could have killed…
It is so true when they say that if you buy a piece of good quality swimsuit, it can last you for many years. The hubs bought a very costly piece of swimsuit for Sherilyn when she was 4 years old but she only wore it for a year as she outgrew it too fast….
I love holidays as I get to enjoy my breakfast with the girls. If I am in the mood to cook, I will whip up some scrambled eggs and omelettes filled with cheeses and mushrooms. If the MIL is around, she will whip up pancakes, fried eggs or some simple but delish sandwiches, like this…
When our live-in helper left last year, I flipped when I opened the door of our washing machine. Having had a live-in helper for over 10 years, I hardly ever touched the washing machine.

The other day, I bought 2 large cucumbers from Tesco at less than a dollar for 2! As I still had some mint leaves and ripe tomatoes in the fridge, I decided to make a cucumber + tomatoes + mint leaves + green apple smoothie for myself and the mil. After whirling the smoothie for…
The other day, Cass woke up with insect bite marks all over her body and limbs. She was scratching like crazy when she woke up in the morning. Poor girl, I think she must have been bitten by some bugs. I applied some Melaleuca oil on her body and sprayed some demand cs insecticide on…
