Sunday, August 31st, 2008Tee drawing in a Chinese Restaurant in New York
Finally, after four long eventful years, I am taking a stance to get my life back. And although getting pregnant and having a second baby will only turn my whole world upside down again, I feel ready right this second to embrace life and work towards my […]
Liquid Nitrogen and Frozen Avocado Beads
Saturday, August 30th, 2008What happens when you have minus 196 degrees Celsius of liquid Nitrogen smoking in a pot? You do NOT touch it. If you do, you can start filling up the form to join the Fingerless Anonymous Society.
What happens when you squirt little droplets of mashed avocado through a plastic bottle into the liquid Nitrogen? Your […]
Showing bad examples to your children
Friday, August 29th, 2008This week has been flitting between very hot and very rainy, certainly a recipe for an oncoming cold. Yesterday, it was so hot that I took my top off at home and went about in just a bra. This is one of the real reasons why we have still not gotten a maid. We are […]
Please God, make me pregnant!
Friday, August 29th, 2008Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. Please God, make me pregnant. […]
Subscribing to Feeds
Friday, August 29th, 2008Can you see that big green feed button over on the top right? I installed it today but it doesn’t work with Mozilla Firefox. It works only with Internet Explorer. Am I missing something?
I hate it when I can’t solve problems as such.

Tee’s long story with constipation
Friday, August 29th, 2008I was going through my old posts (shit! I have been writing for two years!) and found Constipation in Toddlers when Tee was just 22 months old. My dear girl is now 47 months old, two years later, and nothing has changed. Her poo still comes out as little Cadbury chocolate balls and she still […]
Why you should never pee in front of your almost four year old
Wednesday, August 27th, 2008Today, in front of 5 other women and 5 boisterous preschoolers who were releasing their pent up despair in the form of zooming past me at lightning speed flashes from left to right and right to left and sometimes, up and down; Tee suddenly stops in the very middle and asks me,
“Mommy, just now……. did […]
Born a Lawyer but wants to be a Doctor…..
Tuesday, August 26th, 2008Tee is really a little rascal and one day, her mouth is going to get her into big trouble.
Whilst doing yoga today in my bedroom (me lying in bed), the tree pose to be exact, where she had to raise one leg with bended knee and rest that ankle against her other knee, and then […]
How to play a fun chain story game with children
Sunday, August 24th, 2008If you’d like to learn more fun games for children, or rather, more fun games to play with preschoolers, hop on to my other blog.
Today at dinner, we taught Tee how to play ‘create a story chain’ game. For those who suffered a deprived childhood, a story chain game is where one person starts a […]
Cheap groceries in Kuala Lumpur
Sunday, August 24th, 2008Or so I thought!!!
I arrived at Tesco Mutiara Damansara today at noon, ALONE (the Hubs had taken Tee for a movie) with a mission to fill up my kitchen with value for money food for the week. We don’t usually shop there but in attempt to cut cost, I braved the trip all by myself. […]

Tee’s toddler strength and weaknesses
Saturday, August 23rd, 2008It’s been almost four exciting years and look how she has grown!!!
My little Tee was born a feisty chilli padi and was the LOUDEST baby in the entire ward of about twenty five babies. Today, she is still as feisty and still as LOUD. But now, she talks and moves and thinks! Recently, she […]

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008And then have to wake up at 8am to make your four year old milk:
You make her milk in your adult coffee cup and make your coffee in her baby cup. Aaaaaarrrrggghh!!!!!!

Selecting accommodation when visiting Disney World and Universal Studios
Friday, August 22nd, 2008How did we choose where to stay when we went? For us it was simple. We were going to get a discount from a family member, so it was either Hotel A or Hotel B, so we chose the better of the two. But otherwise, how would you choose where to stay when in Orlando?

How to win an amazing back to school deal
Friday, August 22nd, 2008It’s easy. How many of you can live without the internet? We all need broadband, right? When I was in Australia without broadband and had to live with a dial-up, I gave up. It’s like tasting the good life and returning to basics. I didn’t have the patience. So I just gave up the internet […]
Getting kicked in the ass
Friday, August 22nd, 2008Sometimes in life, we all need a kick in the ass. Many of us are lazy in nature and unconsciously love staying in our comfort zone. It’s natural. Why change when wherever we are is livable. It may not be perfect but we’re still alive, aren’t we?
Many of us also need support and encouragement. Sometimes, […]
Keeping a log on office supplies
