Jellio Jubilee Sky

Good to have a chance to spend one to one time with each of the kids. Just eat, shop and drink.   Chance upon this KoKopanda ice-cream outlet and we went ahead to get the ice-cream. The white is ice-cream while the black charcoal is the yogurt. Actually the black one taste nicer.  

A rare conversation between Buddha and Bhikkhu Ananda.... 1. Anand :- I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic. Buddha:- Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you free. 2. Anand :- Why has life become complicated now? Buddha :- Stop analyzing life... It makes it complicated. Just live it. 3. Anand :- Why are we then constantly unhappy? Buddha :- Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy. 4. Anand :- Why do good people always suffer? Buddha :- Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer. With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter. 5. Anand :- You mean to say such experience is useful? Buddha :- Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons later. 6. Anand :- Because of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading… Buddha:- If you look outside you will not know where you are h...

The fever came back again and look like viral fever this time. We were a little too late to visit our nearest clinic so have to drive to marine parade to look for a clinic that close at 12mn. Although after inserting the medication into the butt helps. His high fever came down for the night but came back again in the morning. Mother in law always has problem feeding him medicine but he cooperate very well when he at home. May be j have my way to get him have his medicine without struggling.  I have a super cranky and sticky toddler following and hugging to my leg all the time. It was super tough to go away even for a pee. 

Just had another appointment with the dentist yesterday. He told me he needed to change a thicker wire for my braces and will be painful after that. Installation was OK, I can feel the tense. Dinner was OK but the effect came while I was trying to have fruit when  back home. This morning I couldn't bite into my bread. Finally the braces is making me not able to eat. Something I am looking for.

I have tried making my own kimchi many time but I just couldn't get the kind of flavour I like. Seem like somethibg lacking but dun know what! It was annoying seeing food wasted and I tried again. Instead of putting the season cabbage right into the fridge immediately, I decided to let it sit outside the fridge for one night. For our country weather, the fermentation will take place very soon. By the time i was back from work, the water from the kimchi increase double, which mean fermentation going on quite well. I repack them into a more compact container so I can put it into the fridge to slow down the fermentation process, as I didn't want it to turn sour too soon.

I was shocked to receive this bill. It is because it is a SAP school? Beside the school fee we still have extra to pay. 

Love laying on the floor after his hot sweaty jumping n running around the house. Nothing beat to relax with pacifier and the cooling marble flooring.  And you soon realise it all runs in the family. It must have look too shiok to lie on the floor and Jie Jie join in soon.

Self obsession of Selfie for a 18th months old baby. Yeeyee ahah yaya

Law said he wanted to go in for a short staycation so we packed the kids threw them into our Wish and drove past causeway. There was an expected massive jam and so jam that allowed the kids to nap enough and feel energetic for lunch.  We brought the kids to Tmn permas Waraku Japanese restaurant because I missed the food here and Law missed the big oysters here. Kids also like the restaurant environment.  Spacious, big table and good food.  This is Janelle lunch set.  We are back for this oysters My salmon fish head set so Skyler can share with me. He likes the charwamushi. Our motel entrance. You can see the owner spent alot on the fengshui Small corridor to our room. We booked a family room.  This is my bed for the night. Only Queen size. A little corner for the older kids. Queen size is a problem with a toddler along. I finally give up sleeping at 7am and gave up my space to him. What good about the room? They provide al...

Nurse said final jab and he's graduated. Since he is old enough the jab experience going to be imprint in his mind. Taking two jabs at the same time, one on arm n one on thigh. He was screaming mad after the arm jab and struggle badly for the thigh jab. He also refused to let the doctor touched him during the assessment.  We rest for a few hours, brought him back to nap while the mummies came over for seafood porridge lunch and chit chat. All went off at noon to pick up sons. Skyler woke up on e they left so I decided we shall not idle at home and I brought him out to Bugis library to make his own library card He was a sweet boy when I travelled alone with him. He will usually sit in quietly in his pram.  He was really excited when he saw the entrance of the kids section at National Library. The kids section was so well decorated. He was busy walking ard following some of the older kids. I picked a few books for him. Hoping to develop a reading habit in him...

After I make the apple cake, Law came in and asked if he get to have some for breakfast tmr since we didn't get bread. I know he doesn't like cinnamon and he wouldn't like the apple cake although I myself have not tasted it. So I search through Pinterest and found this bread machine recipe. It was so easy and so many good review so I told him he will be getting fresh bread tmr. I just need 20 min to pour everything into the bread machine. Thanks goodness my mum bread machine is still with me. It was supposed to be her birthday present from us a few years back but after she used for a while I asked if I could T-loan and till now still with me. This is the one I am using. I hope it will really turn up great tmr. At least I can get Janelle to bring some for her morning break.  Just as I suspected that the portion will be too much for my Donlim bread machine despite I have reduce the 3 cups to 2 2/3 cups flour. Look like my machine can only take 2cups and lesser. It...

I chance upon this vegan cake recipe in Facebook and I was seriously looking for one. Not for myself but I wanna make for a vegetarian colleague and I treat this as a challenge myself to bring my cooking skills into the vegetarian world. Thankful my colleague is gaming enough to be my tester and provide feedback to me after trying. The ingredients are easy to find, only that they using spelt flour which are healthier and can be easily found in cold storage.  The recipe asking to slice the apple but I find shredding the apple will mix with the flour better. I still deco the cake with slices of apple on top. 

We went for Law family day at USS and realised the so call family day is so different from mine. He hardly find his colleagues so we wondered what kind of family day was that. Sunday was surprisingly no as crowded as we thought. We managed to take the rides pretty fast and realised although some ride Skyler could take but he didn't like it cause of the dark tunnel and he didn't enjoy it at all. He preferred to run around the street and watched people walking around. We managed to catch the outdoor sesame Street performance and also taking photos with the characters less Elmo because he was just too popularly and the queue to take photo with him was just too long. We managed to take nice photos with other characters.  Surprisingly, Skyler loves them and unlikely the older kids who simply run away from the mascot, Skyler ok to take photos. 

While daddy and jie jie went ahead for the rides we wondering around and took photos together. Skyler was having alot of fun and Julian finally have the courage to retake the transformer ride.  Cartoon drawing each pax $10 for black and white drawing. I wanted the brothers to have something together and happened that Janelle is away for her ride. It was cute right. Hahaha..  We realised the wefie works well with Skyler if he got to press the button so I set the timer on and wefie. Manage to get a few good shots.

Believe it or not. Skyler has not called mama before 7 April. Not even he was desperated but for something from me but for no reason he called me very unexpectedly today. After that he has No intention to call me again. The expression to skip calling me was also so cheeky but the sound of mama from Skyler was so delightful.

This is Janelle, from a M size tee to a XS tee now. Can see how healthily thin she has become. Her arms and legs so slimmer and she is happily 56kg.

Over the years she had done well. Although not the top 3 but managed to maintain top 25%. Every year she is waiting for the letter and this year with no doubt she managed to get her award from our CCC. We are happy for her.

Finally I can go out with my Cassie after mum make some alteration for me. I still feel it loose but my tummy and hip is hugging on to it.

Since Nov 16, the braces is with me and time passes and I am with it for 4 months. My teeth are so much neater now.
