Lost the concentration. Was researching on upcoming trip then was distracted and went to blog 😂😂. I think I seriously need to test if I have attention deficit.
Now need to be back on track. So it’s to the Christmas music that I always need, anytime of the year, to keep my mind working hard. Ehh…maybe hard for the next 15mins before I lost my interest again.
Jiayou! I need to work this plan out fast
When this is out means ….
Someone is travelling again. Just need to find which number is tagged to her phone, then checked the battery. Realised AirTags battery depletes fast 🤨.
I have to put (numbers) on it for easier identification. So it’s either (1) or (4) that is tagged to her phone
Che-che’s week trip to xxx with her uni friends. Makes me wonder why when I was working I didn’t even go on a holidays with my friends.
It turns out that not all Donki outlets are the same! The Jewel branch only had one type of peach, but the Square 2 outlet had two different kinds. Naturally, I went with the sweeter ones.
on 5th Aug
Mistakes I made : (1) I couldn’t find a clear peach flavoured water so bought the tetra pack. I didn’t realise it’s mixed veg & fruit drink 🤦🏻♀️. (2) I cut my peaches too small but coz I was also experimenting with a new container so wasn’t sure if I should have cut bigger pieces + I was eating them 🤭. You know Japanese always have the daintiest size things, my loaf tin is huge. When I compare all the containers I have at home, the container that I used eventually is by far the best choice.
材料（20cmパウンド型）
回桃 2個
い・ろ・は・すもも 200ml
ロ不二家ネクターピーチ 350ml
回牛乳 50ml
口砂糖大さじ3
四粉ゼラチン 15g
The square container I’m using as a mold requires x2 portion. Meaning I poured 300ml of my wrongly purchased drink, scooped out 100ml and mixed with 10g gelatine powder and heat over the stove while stirring. Transferred back to the remaining 200ml liquid and stir

Let’s talk about another kitchen lesson learned: size matters! I made the mistake of cutting my pieces way too small. If I'm being honest, it's because I was busy sampling them (hey, they were delicious!). Unfortunately, those tiny pieces couldn't hold onto the gelatine well, resulting in a few stray gelatine bits chilling at the bottom of the container..
Finally, let's talk about the mold. I’ve been trying to keep things minimal by just using a square container I already had at home, but honestly? It’s way too wide to look right and ruined the aesthetic. What I really need is a sleek, narrow mold exactly like the one she used.

The matcha expert is here! One of che-che's friend is a matcha connoisseur 😄, so I brought down whatever matcha powder we have and let them play.
The girls all gathered in the small kitchen, che-che outside at dining area looking in. Now che-che's ‘playdate' is UPPed leveled - from the I can bluff kids to bake to this matcha noisy ceremony (no Zen, just noisy 😆)
Wah..师父！师父有功夫。
Coz someone broke my first bowl so I had to Taobao this. I saw a few nice designed bowls in Japan but no way am I going to spend so much $$ again to have it broken into pieces by careless family members. If this breaks again, I'll just use my plastic bowls to whisk my matcha.
And then they asked for milk. Haha! I totally forgot about the milk coz I normally drink my matcha plain 🤭. Never mind, I used the Nepresso latte pods and dispense the latte into the cup. Coz I was only left with 2 latte pods, told 师父 if she needs then we use the Japanese condensed milk I have. Haha!
Abit of mixing styles here and there. Haha!
Second cup into this cup. Not nice presentation but who cares.
This is from a packed matcha mix with gold flakes. Drink already can huat huat.
Charging to the weekend (tho I must say again it makes no difference to me).
The girls WFH today, che-che's friends came over to hang out they also WFH but they work from my home 😂. I'm WIAH (work-is-at-home 😆) today and everyday.
Happy weekend to all!
No words. Just look 😆
The leftover fillers goes into my room 😃

我该多看年轻帅哥
Lil' one rainbow looming in her mouth 😉. She should be able to remove her braces at the end of the year.
Che-che had hers removed today. Yay! Another appt in 6 days time to collect her retainers.
It's been a year plus of bracing for them.
Remembered the first day they both had their braces on just like it was yesterday. And they had that awkward silence, and when they spoke they both sounded like Tweety birds.
Was doing my iMovie (yup! I'm 8mths slow. Too many videos already..finishing the last bits for Paris) and these videos ... 😭
Told che-che she's been to 2 church that had gone thru destruction. Christchurch Cathedral before the earthquake and Notre Dame before the fire. Not my first time in Notre Dame tho', I even went for mass with my colleagues, not that we understood what was going on but I agat- agat knew what was happening lah! When ppl turned around and said in french, we didn't know what was going on until I told colleagues "peace be with you". We spoke in anglaise to ppl around us. Haha!

Is this saved? Or lost? 😢
On a rare school day (weekday) afternoon …..
Footnote written in 2022 :

And things change now, there's no such thing as half day for uni.
Less than 10mins they came to me....siblings

The 等着不耐烦 girl. Kept chasing daddy to hurry up.
It's a good thing I suggested to send che-che to Bedok coz there was heavy traffic along the way.
Imagine if it's the dad n he gotta "rush in his driving" 😱 to two different places.
When she was younger, she's always the first to wear her shoes, sit on the floor and wait for us.
Now? She drags herself to school 🤣 #ihateschool#
To my KC classmates,
Our school song.
