I never in my life thought my Aunty would be part of the drama-crazy groupies. Honestly. When she came up here for her holiday, she whipped out her Sony Vaio and immediately, her homepage was a website that provided online streaming of all her favourite Korean Dramas.
I can’t believe how she would gush over certain [...]

Tell me, why are kids so damn smart?
How can they tell the difference between a toy remote and the real TV remote? If I were a kid, I’d prefer the toy remote, because it makes more sounds…whereas, the real TV remote..doesn’t do jackshit (if the TV isn’t switched on!).
As for mobile phones, they make toy [...]

Sometimes, I feel like decking my whole backyard. I say this because I am in a huge battle with crabweeds! They are all over the place and slowly replacing my lovely lovely grass! However, there is the cost to consider..and I just don’t have the budget for it. As it is, I don’t have a [...]

Tomorrow will be officially winter! But surprisingly, it’s been a lil warmer today. Top of 18Deg. Even, though it’s c-c-c-c-cold at nights, I kinda like this temperature. But..I know it will be freezing soon, and I’ve been looking for new winter wear. I like fleecewear, because it’s light and easy to wash.
Been looking online at [...]

Ahhh…Hainanese Chicken Rice. I never liked steamed chicken rice before, preferring Char Siew Farn everytime. However, as I am a lil older and my tastebuds have ‘matured’ somewhat..I constantly find myself craving for this simple dish.
Anyway, over here..it’s quite expensive to order it, and I’ve learnt to cook it at home. It is so darn [...]

As it is… I had to do it.
Harvest my real-life vegetables.
I had enjoyed just looking at them grow..but it’s gotten to a stage that if I didn’t harvest.. it would just be that and then it would die off. So, finally, I harvested most of my pak-choys and korean pak-choys..and stir-fried it for dinner. How [...]

Over here, we are going through water shortages, due to the severe drought for the past few years. It’s been quite drizzly the past week, note I said, ‘drizzly’, not actual rain in true Melbournian sense. So, everyone is doing their own bit to save water. I guess, ultimately, this benefits everyone, even if the [...]

One more week, to the school holidays. I know most parents dread school holidays, trying to keep kids from being bored and running amok. But, me…I’m relieved. I still have to wake up early, but I no longer have to rush with the laundry and the breakfast and lunch! Every morning, I’m just rushing preparing [...]

It’s been confirmed that No.1’s school has reported cases of the swine flu. We received this news late last week. Honestly, I am not that panicky, mainly, because I suspected my kids also had this swine flu. One of them, had a high temperature, and had rashes all over his body. But, I kept them [...]

Today, I wanted to bake a butter cake. Just a simple butter cake. I wanted to share this cake with two mums. One of these moms made me bak-chang! Home-made bak-chang! Can you imagine, how eternally grateful I was???
The other mom is preggie..and is feeling really poorly. I gave her some chicken with potato and [...]
