Attracter of Bugs

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…

Happy Voting

In just 2 days, our country will go through a general election. For the past month, my social network site has been flooded with pictures, hostile postings from both fractions and articles on the general election. There have been so many postings on what both parties have been up to, in order to win. What…

Procrastination

After my former live-in helper left us last year, I discovered that our washing machine was terribly infested with black mildew in the detergent compartment and the rubber rim at the door. I had a hard time scrubbing the mildew away. The rubber rim is still badly stained with black mold, which cannot be wiped…

Insatiable Appetite

Cass has such a huge appetite. During our current stay in Ipoh, she has been eating non-stop, yet she does not seem to get full or satiated. She eats more than her 2 older sisters and even more than me! From a pintsized, sickly baby who weighed a pathetic 7.5kg after her surgeries at 13…

Living in the moment

I am now craving for some Salmon and octopus sashimi, along with some raw oysters.

Sashimis can be excrutiatingly painful on the budget…

This man skipped the CNY celebration and flew…

Expensive But Not Fitting

I bought Sherilyn an expensive pair of Barbie ballerina flats for Christmas last year. The shoes is a tad big for her feet. To make the shoes tighter, I inserted some scrunched up papers from some new shoes into her shoes, lol! But this rascal is now complaining that the shoes are making her feet…

Half Boiled Eggs With Chicken Poop Anyone?

Since I am at the topic of eggs, I just remembered one particular incident at a mamak restaurant last year which was the turning point that made me make up my mind that I will never again order half boiled eggs from coffee shops and restaurants.  If you think about it, do you think that…

Do not fancy swimming

I love exercising in the morning, especially when the skies are still dark and before the hot morning sun is out. I get such peace of mind when I run on the road in pre dawn darkness. I do not have to worry about being mugged as I run within the compound of our condo…
