Being back to hometown to be with family and friends during this Auspicious Celebration was of course great but nothing beats coming back and sleep on our memory foam mattress in our own bedroom.
We came back much earlier this year on the 5th of CNY to beat the jam and also to reunion with our [...]
Driving back was always easy in the past. But this time, jam was extremely bad. We used to travel very early in odd hours to beat the jam, but this time, hubby said we should enjoy and take our time.
Jam along the whole stretch highway from Toll at Gombak Exit till Bentong
I think [...]
Time is short this time, for everyone. However I suppose all of us could still get everything done right as of until now?
This year, I do not have to shop around for cookies because I got the best cookies from Siew Li, a very fantastic baker who is also my secondary school friend
Instead [...]
We started off 2012, with a very busy and hectic schedule. De Bumbo Boys are finally in preschool this year but it seems to make me even busier.
We had to leave home very early due to jam so I have to put the kids early to bed daily. Getting Korkor to school is a [...]
During the Mid Autumn Festival, Bao Bei class organized a Lantern Making Event.
Each family were given a lantern frame and we got a little elephant with some red color lantern papers.
*(sorry, no detailed picture to show because I was busy making the lantern and did not bring my camera-pic from friend’s camera..)
It was a great [...]
Yesterday was quite an eventful day for me.
In the morning hubby attended DIZIGUI class with QQ while I brought the kids to Sg.Long Buddhist Society for Birthday Dana. So happen that many of the Dhamma teachers (hmm…the volunteer parents of the children call themselves facilitators and not teachers) were born in July, what a great [...]
As hubby dislike cake, we got him just a mini one, just to satisfy our own cravings for cakes! Yes, June is the only month where I can find unlimited excuse to eat LOTS of cakes besides having a good time shopping for the right personal gifts for him.
While QQ was arranging the candles on [...]
Only 5 party packs - self, 2 brothers, 1 cousin, 2 friends
Unlike previous years, birthday celebrations for my children gets smaller and smaller. This year, we only invite SIL’s family, 1 neighbour and family, plus 2 friends of mine.
Simple food for dinner
Food for dinner are only simple fried mee hoon, curry chicken and nasi lemak. [...]
In just few more days we will move into June again. To me, it marks middle of the year, where we will be celebrating our next Chinese New Year in another half year soon!
June, a month of celebration for everyone in our family. And every time although I said I do not want to do [...]
I was feeling quite stressed with the boys during CNY, and that may contribute to my eating and feasting out all the time during the CNY although the good exclusive la flor dominicana ligero would do a good stress relief.
Putting the boys misbehaving issues aside, I called for a light steamboat session with a [...]
You would probably be laughing away already by the way I eat by now…hahaha..and if I could turn all my fats into muscle with the electronic muscle stimulation, I guess I would be Mr Muscle by now!
Before the CNY ends, we also visited to FGS Dong Zen at Jenjarom. Some how now I love living [...]
Lousy Health
Gobbling down all the good food really comes with a price. One by one of us got sick, REAL SICK. Not sure if it was due to the weather change, different tap water from different state or chemical from the China-imported CNY vege, we all went down with diarrhoea!
It starts off with hubby, with [...]
Sorry, if I have not visit your blogs (actually dying to find out what’s up during your CNY celebration). Will try to finish what we did on CNY before I hop over soon.
What is CNY if it is not about good food. Ya…in olden days, my grandma said people are so poor where they only [...]
We reached Kuantan quite early on the Chinese New Year Eve. Dinner was ready by noon for the prayer to our ancestors, so SIL only reheat them.
On the first morning, we dressed the boys up before giving out the Ang Pow.
Lion Dance at Hyatt Regency, Kuantan on 1st CNY
As usual, we will bring the boys [...]
Thanks everyone for your sharing, for your kind words and thoughts on my previous posting. At least I know I am not alone in this madness, although I have 2x of what that rare species who you might have too at home.
Didi is behaving much better these few days, so I have less headache with [...]
