Spanish Senorita attends her first hoity-toity event
Without a Nanny, I usually decline all forms of invitations to these type of events. But last week, I had to show face because I was 'supposedly' part of the organising committee, a useless non-contributor. It was the least I could do. To attend. And I had to.......click to learn what next.
Another reason why I don’t have a maid
When we were in Australia, this maid complained that hoovering was too difficult. Especially with a hoover that keeps getting tangled in her little legs, was noisy and heavy. So her Nana got the little princess a new cordless hoover. See what happens when you give an inch to a.......click to learn what next.
Snippets from my little imp
The Hubs has a knack for losing things whenever we are out as a family. Temporarily. He loses things because he has the weekend duty of entertaining the little one. Anyone who would dare take on the challenge of being responsible for my little imp would never volunteer taking.......click to learn what next.

The important things in a 3 year old’s life
From pretty fair maiden..... To the party breakdancer. The monkey really IS your real Mummy, Tee.... You call this a sword? It's Pink! Being twirled like Thumbelina. Volunteering as the Magician's Aid. The Monkey Puzzle cake by Mamamin, adapted from Tee's favourite book. The cake had all the characters from the.......click to learn what next.
My daughter is possessed….
Let's hope it lasts. Today was an unusually loaded day for us. Tee danced at school, pooed at her Nana's, visited the Queen, then skipped to her Great-Grandmother's for her first lantern stroll. Our normal days go like this - school, then home. School, then home. School, then home. On extremely rare occassions, school,.......click to learn what next.
Technology’s pulling at my leg!
You know, the thing about technology, is that it's supposed to be the tool that frees us Moms from the grinds of Motherhood. Dishwashers (for removing stubborn stains) - tick. Dryers (for drying children) - tick. Idiot Box (for babysitting) - tick. Wheels (for transporting children to the next city. And leaving.......click to learn what next.
What’s pojestwone, Mummy? It’s Progesterone

Monday scurries and weekend curries

This trip.......click to learn what next.

Did I make it to KLIA?
Thank you to all of you who took time to comment. By this morning, the Hubs still hadn't responded to my text message asking him if I should risk going to the airport alone with Tee. My dearest brother, with all good intentions, was only able to get.......click to learn what next.
I need to design a child rack!
Whenever we visit my mom every Friday, it's Tee's ticket to freedom. She gets all the candy in the world, is protected from disciplinary warnings and spits at the Thinking Corner. The girl has a SERIOUS field day. Today was no different. Whilst at her Nana's house, Tee.......click to learn what next.
My first conference table jitters
The big Petronas job. 20 leery fall guys. I thrashed them. Contract sealed. Headquarters were pleased. My first brush with a boardroom was in KL. Then, at the inexperienced age of 25, I was merely a secondary contributor. I never would have imagined that one day I would sit at.......click to learn what next.
