Some of you may have seen these photographs before. But I have to post them once again cos I couldn’t find anything in my hard drive that goes with this week theme.

Bitter gourd creeps in my garden. The creeps twist-ing on the supporting line for support.

Some was left dangling twist(ed) in the air.

And the creeps just go round twisting on anything beyond their way!

* Photograph was shot using Sony T-10.

Easter day has come and gone but the memory is safely stored in my hard drive. I can’t stop staring at her photographs as she has grown more beautiful by days. I have no idea as how I should describe that special glow on her face. She really had that glow especially on her cheeks.

🙁 Sorry, I am so Emo and tired today. Please don’t say any mushy-mushy words to me or I may cry. I can’t wait to go home and give this Baby a big bear hug or maybe drop one or two ‘happy’ tears. Signing out….

Of late, some of you may notice that I have added a new category called “Children’s Education Fund” and an asterisk (*) will be added before the title. This is also to tell you that I have joined the bandwagon writing some paid post to fund my latest hobby i.e. photography. I am now targeting to get an external flash which will cost me around RM1.5k and a 100mm or 150mm lens, also costing about RM1.5k. That is a whole lot of money!

Let me tell you a very hillarious incident. There was once, a friend (male) came to pick me up for lunch. When I stepped into his car, there I saw, a week old milk bottle laying on the floor. I just have to laugh when I see that. Furthermore, it is a week old bottle with all the stains on it. Eww….! Can you imagine my reaction if the milk bottle is a used condom? That is double Eww….! and of course, so hillarious can die lidat!

And another very hillarious thing he told me. Recently, he is hooked in a forum and wanted me to guess which or what forum it is. Out of 6 answers, I got them all wrong. And his answer is…… http://www.diapersasia.com/forum/. (pssst… Sis, quick go register.)

My spontaneous reply was, “HOLY COW!”

For the love of his son or maybe the freebies?  I don’t know.

That really makes me rofling. Ok. All Mummies out there with little babies, go join the forum and grab some freebie as currently they are running a lucky draw for a very cute Starbunz Cloth Diaper.

And no, this is not an advertorial. I just think those cloth diapers is a die for. Too bad Baby Princess is now fully toilet trained. You know, some of the design has got a tail sticking out of the butt. So cute can die lidat!

Last night, I was in not exactly in a mood for Japanese but somehow, I ended cooking a full Japanese dinner.  We had Miso soup minus the egg tofu because we already had steam tofu with bonito and on daughter’s special request, we had steam Salmon trout.

Check out the recipe for miso soup by clicking on the link above.  And here you go, the recipe for steam tofu with bonito.  Pretty simple and doesn’t required tedious cooking.

Ingredients:
Tofu
Bonito (dry fish flakes)
Oyster sauce or fish sauce

Method:
Steam tofu and oyster sauce for 5 minutes.  Remove from wok and garnish with bonito.  Pretty easy right?  You may add spring onions or sesame oil if you like.

The above picture is just for show.  In actual, before we dunk into the tofu, we have sky high of bonito you don’t even know there are tofu underneath.

I bought my bonito from the Japanese section in Jaya Jusco for about RM10.90 if I’m not mistaken.  Can anyone suggest other way of eating/cooking bonito?

The tiny little hand that grip.

The tiny little pair of foot that curl.

From Big to Small some say from wearing pampers to g-string

Aunty hijacking 3 months old Nephew as model. hehe.

The adult hand is mine but the adult foot is his Mummy’s.

(If you have not read how pitiful Eldest Princess was caned by her Teacher, please read them so that you can understand what is being said here. But if you don’t, please don’t make yourself looks like a fool commenting what is not relevant at all.)

If I were to write the hate post on the day my daughter was caned you will see lots of flowery language in here. And so the story continue from the Mummy’s point of view la.

So, since kena caned already, I might as well bring her for a hair cut. After dotter sat on the chair, the hair stylist usually will ask which hairstyle we want. Since I want my RM10 bucks worth, might as well get a designer haircut. So I ask for his opinion. And he goes, “How about MY hairstyle?” I almost choke to death. rofl….

Let you be the judge then.

Somehow, this magazine cover caught my eye.

Hey, they looks nice tho. I could have fooled the Teacher. The back hairstyle is usually short like an inverted moon shape with longer fringe. The hair style looks nice on my dotter and of course suit her too as she has really thick and dark hair. And since I have 15 minutes to kill time, I just flip thru the magazine.  Guess what I saw!  Remember Gillian scandal news with Cecilia?  Some of you is wondering who is Bobo.

May I presents youuuuuuu…….

*drum rolling*…..

Tada!

Get lost if the picture makes you wet.

Baby Princess started play school early of this year. At the same time, I’ve enrolled her in Sunday School too. I’m so glad she love both of it. Everyday, she will ask if tomorrow got school or not. And her tomorrow will never end with Sunday School. She has grown more talkative and her speech was excellent. Sometime Most of the time she will go babble, babble, babble and we have to ask her to stop.

She is getting mischievious by days. At times, I find her antic amusing but most of the time, she is really a trouble maker. She has this ability to charm people. Most of the time, I will fall into her traps. She conversed less in Mandarin ever since she stopped going to the babysitter. Which, is a bad thing la! She used to communicate in full Mandarin with Aunty, but now, Aunty is complaining that she don’t understand a word what Baby Princess is talking.

Coming to her speech, her once upon a time Ki Ki Kau is now clearly heard as Mickey Mouse. *rolling-on-floor-laughing* Lello is now Yellow. Winnie the Pooh is still Winnie Pooh Pooh which I think is cute 😀 . Sometimes, she calls herself Monster Truck and at times, she thinks she is Transformers. This is when she will fight with her brother cos both of them wanted to be Autobot. errr… that’s all the progress at 3 years old.

We almost celebrate her birthday in TGIF if not because of Cheng Beng. So this year, we have different picture compare to the previous year. You know, I am so glad I have wonderful Sister-In-Laws. They are just wonderful peoples (not because of the birthday cake they bought. They ARE really nice people.)

Coming from a big family with 6 siblings, one of the advantage we shared is pass-me-down maternity clothes. Good thing all of us have petite size and our age gap is different by 2 to 3 years. Whenever any one of us get pregnant, there will be an addition of 2 or 3 new pieces of clothes especially during Chinese New Year. With 6 siblings, you do the calculation as how many maternity clothes we had in the wardrobe. Sometime, when I see some nice ones on sales, I was so tempted to buy and yet reluctant cos we really had enough of maternity clothes.

Do you know there is a wholesale florist in Petaling Street that sell lots of beautiful flowers? Don’t know about you, I just can’t part with flowers. I will go crazy when I see one. When my 5th Sis, Julie, told me that she is going to Petaling Street to buy flowers for Cheng Beng, I just jump at the opportunity.

You may think that Petaling Street is so far but if you intend to make bulk purchases, it is worth the money. This is only one of them. They have tons of colours and many other types of flowers you will be so spoilt of choices all you want to do is buy every each one of them.

Okok, to make the long story short, I only bought one bouquet for my late MIL. I think my Sister bought 6 or 7 bouquets.

Warning: If you have the ability to see ghost, please do not proceed. Or you can proceed at your own risk. Don’t tell me I never warn you.

Change image to black & white just incase some think it is eerie.

Saturday afternoon I beg hubby to fetch me to his late Mom’s cemetery. Ever since she pass away, I have not step foot on her cemetery before. Not only I have to beg, I have to scared him with this, “You not scare your Mom angry with me issit? Later at night she come and find me. How?” Haha.

I still like coloured photograhs.

Being a Christian, we just pray without joss stick and place flower. I hope MIL won’t mind. I know she won’t. She is the nicest MIL in the whole wide world (or at least better than some of your MIL *sticking out tongue*) It is very funny how I get this question, “You take photo at a cemetery. Not scare ghost ah?” Errr…. broad day light wor. I thought ghost come out only at night?

This little girl…

She has not seen her late Grandma before. She was only 26 days old when her Grandma passed away. And today, she told her Grandma, “Today is my birthday, Grandma”.

Sorry, tears just rolled down my eye. I need to stop here.

“Prevention is Better Than Cure” – Yea, I always agree to this quote.

While writing this post, my backache is still bothering me. I know I have to do something about it before it is too late. It has been on and off for a year now. Usually the pain will persist for 2 to 3 days before it disappeared without me taking any medication at all. While googling on the Internet for more information on my backache, I stumble upon more aches associates diseases like fibromyalgia. Thank goodness none of my symptom matches fibromyalgia. Even though I have stiff neck and backaching, they doesn’t hurt when touched. That sounds so scary. I would say, eat right and always exercise.
