A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
I am a sucker for healthy bread — bread with multi-grain, multi-seed, multi-nuts and flour-free bread. My girls are a sucker for Gardenia white bread. They can eat it 3x a day with no complaints (eat it on its own some more!), albeit I think Alycia the rice-addict will be craving for rice for dinner….
Today I witnessed a near-miss case of pick-pocketing at the supermarket of Isetan. I said near-miss as the pickpocket thief was face-to-face with me and he stopped short when he noticed that I noticed him !! In the crowded supermarket where there was a Japan food fair on-going, the thief who looked suspicious pretended to…
My hubs is very good at buying just the right gift for me. So far, I love all his birthday gifts to me. He had in my previous birthdays given me 2 digital cameras, a Blackberry mobile phone and the latest is a Samsung Galaxy Note. All these gadgets have helped me out tremendously in…
Today my insurance agent comprising of a husband and wife team (jet setting high flyers, left school after Form 5, no degree and earning 5 figure income per month!!) came to see me to discuss about consolidating and transferring my insurance policies from another insurance company.

I have been feeling a tad queasy and dizzy for the past few days, in addition to feeling lethargic and hungry all the time. Nope, it is not what you are thinking about… I hope NOT! Nah, it is NOT! The light headedness and drowsy feeling happens if I am seated in front of the…
We were at Ikea yesterday to claim my monthly cash reward. We had earlier planned to spend a maximum of 2 hours there but ended up spending 4 hours in that giant furniture shop. If I were given a big sum of cash to splurge, I would love to get a new piece of furniture…
Not the healthiest of breakfast choice, but the simple and cheap economical fried vermicelli or ‘king jai fun’ is my all-time favourite comfort food since aeons ago up until today! This simple yet comforting staple food served as breakfast and even lunch is ubiquetious in the morning, at road-side stalls, vans and in coffee shops….
For the past 3 days, our house, in particular the kitchen has been in a mess because of the repair works on the kitchen wall. The entire wet kitchen was rendered impassable and all the things were moved into the dry kitchen. Everywhere was dust and dirt. The contractor’s equipment like power drills, hammer, leveling…
