A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
This morning, my maid made me steaming mad again. Baby had woken up early today. Just as I was about to leave the house to jog, she woke up. This time, I didn’t want to bring her along to jog as I wanted to buy some chicken meat at a nearby stall, so I left…
This is Baby’s lunch yesterday : Organic veggie pasta in the shape of tiny flower pasta (made from spinach, beet root, durum wheat semolina and pure barley powder), chopped spinach, fried eggs, steamed fish with tomatoes and a drizzle of sesame seed oil. Also sprinkled a pinch of grated Parmesan cheese on her pasta for…
Cherry tomato is another veggie that Baby loves. There is always a packet of organic cherry tomatoes in our fridge. It’s a very healthy snack and my 3 gals and I love popping them into our mouths whenever we feel hungry in between meals. My gals and I love anything that is cooked with tomatoes….
I’ve been having cracked heels for several years now. I’ve tried almost every cracked heel cream in the market including Vaseline petroleum jelly but none really works. Each time I show the hubs my cracked heel, he would suggest bringing me to see a skin specialist. But being a procrastinator, I have yet to make…
My mil bought some organic baby capsicums last week. It was the first time I’d seen such tiny and cute capsicums and I could not resist biting on one of the baby capsicums… in its raw form. I remembered Chris (one of the commentators of my blogs) telling me that her son would eat raw…
I was attacked by another bout of Mastitis yesterday and am still feeling the pain today. I was really exhausted 2 nights ago, overslept (I normally wake up between 3-5am to change her diaper and feed her) and did not switch sides to let Baby suckle on my right boop. Yesterday morning, my nightie was…
The hubs bought a packet of yellow color fresh dates the other day. They didn’t taste as good as the brownish-greenish fresh dates which are round in shape. The yellow color, oblong shaped fresh dates are sweet but have a slight bitter taste and sappy texture, as if you are eating bananas that are not…
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…
That’s how my gals eat pomelos: But my health freak baby didn’t quite like pomelos. After a few bites, she spat them out and played with them instead. I guess she does not like the slight tart taste of the pomelo, which is similar to that of grapefruit. But Alycia could not stop devouring on…
I had asked the hubs to get me a pack of Kraft’s singles cheese the other day but my man who always has doubts about processed cheese (and would always shake his head each time I buy them) got me a pack of Emborg Edam in slices cheese instead (made in Germany). I have no…
