Prawn Noodles

I am considered one of the few more fortunate ones who had home-cooked dinner everyday. The spread on the dinner table is usually more than 3 dishes + soup (must hv!) daily.

Mum is a great cook and a super housekeeper! She can manage Kerin, go marketing, cook, clean the house day in day out. I think I will die of exhaustion if you ask me to do all these chores everyday. When we came home tonite, we have another surprise. We are having prawn noodles for dinner!

One of my favourites!! Yummy Yummy!

This one is with Pig Skin!!! YES!!


Normal ones...
With fried onions and red chilies, simply heavenly!



HotPot

I was dying to have steamboat. Yes, dying is the word. So, I decided to skip Pilate class for 1 week and sneak off with Kel to fulfill my desire!!

We went to this Hotpot shop at Selegie call Hey Hey Hotpot. Buffet dinner is at $27 ++ and soup based is charged another price. We choose the melon soup which is very nice and light. There are a variety of seafood, poultry, veggies, dim-sums and side dishes to choose from(usual for steamboat buffet). What I can comment is that the food is fresh, at least not like some places where the seafood has a fishy smell. And their servings are generous. After two rounds, we are really very full and satisfied.

This is our Melon soup hotpot!

7 years ago on 8th Dec

7 years ago on a bright sunny Saturday, we held our customary wedding. Yes, I remembered it was a sunny day (in contrast of today's weather - it has been drizzling the whole Day! ) and in a blink of eyes, 7 years hv come and go. So, what kind of celebration did we hv tdy? Hmm..with 2 kids and loads of housework to do, we decided to pig out at home.. Well, I hv a tonne of clothes to iron cos Ping-yi has went back to HK for holidays and with a wet weather, there is no where we can go. (Though we are suppose to join auntie Eileen at Sentosa)

Later we will be dinning out with our parents cos my brother is out of town. And before he flew off, he actually sms me to take care of our parents! I am amazed as this is the first time he sent this kind of sms.. can see that marriage has made him a more sensible and caring fellow! (Way to Go, YK!)

We din get any gifts for one another not that we ran out of ideas or $$ or interest, personally, I think we hv more good years ahead of us.. there is no rush, we will learn to cherish all the moments together.

Meet-The-Parents 2008

It is the time of the year again !! Met both Justin's and Kerin's teachers yesterday morning where they will update the kids' progresses with a report card like booklet and return all the works they have done throughout the year.

First Stop, to meet Justin's English and Chinese Teachers. We brace ourselves for a long session (we know our kid..) and the first thing Teacher D say , " Well, it seems like you have a future politician in the making!" Kel and me rolled our eyes at one another..Huh? Meaning? According to Teacher D, Justin is a Sociable, helpful and a independent boy. We translated it to: He is Talkative!, KPO! and Bossy boy! hehehe.. See English can be interesting! Well, Teacher D personally thinks that personal traits are in-born and we should be happy that he has all these traits since young. Well, to be frank, I will be happy if he could cruise through his academic career without much hardship. As for character, I believe it is more or less in born. And I hate to admit this (despite constant reminders from a "fren") Justin is a duplicate of me! He seems to have all my traits!!

Now, next to Kerin. Her Chinese Teacher, Teacher S say she is clever and is very interactive in classs. She is good in art and crafts and can cut and paste very well. Again, Kel and me rolled our eyes. Hehehehe..it seems that missy is not that type at home, she seems to be more wilful and demanding at home. Maybe we "neglected" her. When Juz was her age, he has his parents' full attention, as for Kerin, she only has half of Kel and my attentions. Hmm.. will try to convince my mum to send her to fulltime school next year. My only worry is she will slim down alot..
The kids with their report cards..

Luncheon Meat

Was craving for luncheon meat the whole week.(Normal craving, pls dont think otherwise!) Made this luncheon meat breakfast for Kel and myself and made him bring the doraemon bread box to work! Ha! He say his colleagues will all laugh at him.. Hmmm.. what's wrong? A breakfast made with love (& and lots of fats) by the wife.. They shld envy him! Hehehehe..

The small stick is tartar sauce, they are sold in this kind of handy pack in Japan!

Wrong Prescription

Little Master Tang was having fever the whole wkend. Up and down, up and down and when it hit max 39.2 degrees, something inside me tells me we hv to do something.

Off we go to Mt Alverina 24hr clinic since it is a Sunday evening, not many choices available. This is the 2nd time little Master Tang visited this place. There was once he was ard age 1+ and he has high fever too and when it happened on a wkend, there aint alot of choices available.

Dr Ng attended to him. He was a resident doctor on duty that evening and based on his analysis, the antibiotics that our GP gave him wasn't helping him. Therefore, the body has to work doubly hard to protect it against the virus. He prescribed another type of antibiotics, cough syrup and two types of fever medicines for different temperature.

After the 2nd dose of antibiotics, little master Tang's fever subsided and today, he was given a day off to rest at my mum place.

Again, never take chances when kids have fever that refused to go away after 3-4 days. I rather be called a kan cheong spider (with eight legs all entangled together) rather than take chances. Well, all my sleepless nites payoff when Justin told me he love me very much and thank me for taking care of him. Well, my this guy is rather an emotional fellow, just hope he grew up with balance dose of EQ and IQ. Too much of either one is not good.
