Saw something that can be easily purchased at S$2.25 from Taobao is sold at S$59.90. Siao!

I can understand if pol double the price to profit but this is 太离谱吧！

For some reason, I'm craving for Korean BBQ, bibimbap, even instant noodles. So tempted to cook army stew, I've got my 케토고추장. But somehow my sensitive stomach can't agree with all the 🌶️. Think

age is catching up on me? Does this mean I can't take 🌶️ for the rest of my life?

So cute! I'm definitely getting more calendula next time

New ones flowering soon

I miss Christmas markets

1st Dec 2020

Spent an enjoyable yet tiring morning with the girls @ Sungei Buloh

After feeding the mosquitoes, we had to refuel our body.

Got place to eat near north but no.....we travelled from Kranji to Marine Parade

just coz the girls

miss uncle's wanton noodle. Then it's all the random stops here.

Girl miss the Nonya Chang so dropped by

Then coz there wasn't any queue so hopped in to buy a scoop each for them.

Then another icy cold treat in Project Açai

With my big baby

And with my lil' nottie girl

I took few spoonfuls from her. And she asked why I ate all the butter, she hasn't eaten any yet. Coz she wants to save the best for last, so been scooping from the sides.

Then it looked like a free-standing rock so l ate the middle part where all the butter spread is. Heehee! #isompahthatiwillnoteatthemiddlepartthenexttimeimsharingwithher#

1st Dec 2020

We went Scoops after indulging in açai. Welve this place. Back home I filled up our container with the almond she bought. So it means....she's going to bake macarons soon! Yay! Greedy mummy 有口福了。

Midnight snack.

Hmm.....their Kane mochi, donuts are in the car. Past the dry ice expired time. 😱 Hopefully nobody lao-sai after eating them

1st Dec 2019

Lil’ one was so happy when che-che bought her socks, scrunchie n tidbit.

Meanwhile I will wait.... she says she needs to do some video editing on GoPro and her stars pics on her phone. She saw a lot of constellations... Wah seh! I’m so jealous!

She complained the rooster woke her up at 5.30am when they only need to meet at 7.30am which I found it strange.. the loudest alarm clock can’t wake her at home but she woke at the rooster’s morning call

while her friends still snoring away. Tho place is dusty but air is fresh; every night can hv the whole sky infront of her, best of all no need to study. No wonder she don’t miss home; don’t miss us. (Mummy heart pain, I missed her but she didn’t)

1st Dec 2019

Reached home close to 1am. I’ve just finished hand washing some items (items all go thru 2 rounds of hand washing except for socks - 3 rounds. Her white socks was

so based on how hard I scrub after 3x, so I did the same for the rests of coloured socks) some laundry are in the machine doing it’s first round at 90deg cel. Will do a second round later. Think will hang up the laundry tmrw morning 了。too tired.

My “smart” girl wore the shoes lil’ one bought for her on Sat despite us telling her not to. Altho’ I will hand wash shoes n slippers but still so silly to wear a new pair to a dusty place, right?

I was expecting some mess in her luggage but she packed everything so neatly into the roll-up storage bags. So different from secondary school days where she stuffed them messily into the storage bags.

At this time, I still haven’t showered. Taking a short break from sitting on the stool scrubbing stuffs, still need to unpack the rest of the nitty gritty items. Some needs replenishment before I pack into a bigger toiletry bag, some items goes back into the proper “excursion box” at home, some items .... heck lah! I just throw back into the luggage since I need them again.

First time I ever had a backache n butt pain from sitting on the stool for that long. First time I used so much Thieves laundry wash, baking soda + lemon essential oil.

Realised too I haven’t taken my 3rd dosage cough syrup which causes drowsiness and knocks me out. That’s why didn’t dare to take it after dinner.

The girls are sleeping together in my room, I’ve been sleeping in lil’ one’s room since last week.

I have no idea what time I’ll sleep later, I hope I sleep coz last night I didn’t sleep well as I was coughing quite badly, which was strange.. maybe I forgot to take the last dosage?? Lil’ one was so troublesome for the past 2 days, kept complaining hungry n then made me so busy. still I have to be up at 7am this morning. Sigh.... will lunch out with the girls tmrw and pack dinner home.

1st Dec 2017

Che-che asks to bring the DSLR, the reason why I normally don't bring with me is coz it's too heavy.

She volunteered she will do some photo-taking. Not sure how much of a photography buff is she. Should I standby spare battery?

Her job now is to learn how to use those chim-mer

-logy menu. Sandra Tan HS can give her crash course or nof? Haha!

1st Dec 2016

I've got that 'Singapore Girl smile' 😄 Happy! I’m not a PMoment fan but I must collect this.

Footnote written in 2021 : 

Then they came with more. I decided to stop after collecting another 3 more? Surprisingly they came out with another one in 2019 or 2020? No more means no more. It's cute but I really have no space to display anymore PM

1st Dec 2016

I've always dreamt of doing this :-Freshly baked breakfast. You know how I envy Martha Stewart or Nigella can cook for a whole party and yet still look so pretty.

I can't! Not a morning person to begin with (which explains this late breakfast), grouchy 😕messy-hair woman (siao charbo) just walks into the kitchen and.......三分熟度 only lan! U think I’ll do it again

tmrw?? Luckily it's easy to find food in Singapore. I'll buy bread for breakfast later.

Can dabao my fav 许留山

1st Dec 2015

Can kill mosquitoes here. Not that there's mosquitoes anyway.

Nothing much to do, except handwash socks n undergarments coz l brought little. Dry very quickly too coz I put on top of the radiator, within minutes it's all dry. So I can download PPTV and watch n watch.

The moment I touch down SIN, I become Ah-sum.

1st Dec 2012

#%^*! Just right outside Sin Flyer, going to HK Land.

Che-Che had to kick n my big toe nail came off.

Hope can tahan all the way till night time. And worst still, I'm a lone ranger again. Must go 24hrs clinic, hopefully everything ok. Argh!!!!!

Footnote written in 2021 :

Yah, I wonder how she did it. Then I couldn't cancel plans coz they would be sad. Yet, worried if my blood will leave trail marks behind

🤣. Prayed that I'll be back home safe, n won't faint in Malaysia.

1st Dec 2012

Doc advised against yanking off, I was so mentally prepared to bite into either girl's arm when doc do that. Says it'll aggravate the clot (ehh...coz since morning mah!).

Just clean n dress wound. Wrap until look so big.

Now another problem. I'm travelling on Tuesday to winter country. How the heck am i going to put my bloody toe in my sports shoes??
