A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
This is Baby’s new favorite snack : Crispy rice puff with seaweed and sesame. This was purchased from an organic shop. The ingredients of the crispy seaweed rice puff: Baby loves it so much she can chomp down 4-5 balls in one sitting.
Munching on nuts and seeds is the healthiest snacking ever, for both adults and kids. I was at Village Grocer and bought these: Pine nuts. Cost almost RM20 for a small box. Freaking expensive! Walnuts. This brand of sugar-free roasted walnuts produced by VitaWide Trading is by far the tastiest – the walnuts are really…
I was at Caring Pharmacy yesterday to get a bottle of hand sanitizer and disinfectant wet wipes and stumbled on some Del Monte cranberries. My 2 older gals who previously didn’t fancy raisins or dried cranberries have recently started to love nibbling on these dried fruits. I got them a pack of Del Monte cranberries…
My visiting parents from Ipoh bought a few kilograms of raw peanuts from the wet market for us. I’ve not bought raw peanuts for aeons and I miss eating them. Each time I see a vendor hawking boiled peanuts on a bike or tricycle (which is pretty rare in KL these days), it reminds me…

This organic chickpea bun is one of my favorite buns. They are normally available at organic shops and in the cafeteria of some hospitals like Sime Darby Medical Center (previously SJMC). Whenever I see them, I will surely get a packet. They are made of wholemeal flour, has generous amount of chickpeas as filling and…
I recently came across a new range of bread and buns for the health conscious called Baker Brown produced by Wholewheat Choice Sdn Bhd. Most of the Baker Brown bread and buns are made from wholewheat. I got a loaf of multi-seed wholewheat bread the other day. A loaf costs RM5.50. According to what is…
Here’s another way of keeping Baby still on her high chair – by giving her a wedge of raw carrot to nibble on. My Baby sure is a health freak. The other day, I put 2 things in front of her and asked her to choose – a biscuit and a carrot stick…. and here’s…
