IT IS NOT JUST RELAXATION IN JOHOR... it is my new phase of life where I also work but only thing is that it is a different type of workload, not as in this picture here where my colleague captured it without my knowledge.... Slogging at work for the past 37 years? Actually I enjoy office life,...
THOUGH I AM BACK IN IPOH, the food thoughts are still fresh in my mind and I better post them up first before I forget where and when they were taken.This is a place I love to come by and by...It is called Nyonya Treats in Taman Perling.... So far, I have been there two times during my three weeks stay...
IT FEELS GOOD TO GO HOME, it is good to reach home in a matter of an hour more but when I think of the flight... hmmmm.... Well, a needle cannot be sharp at two ends... Two options... take a eight hour bus ride or one hour plus flight... which sounds good? The former cost RM75 and the latter is...
MY BOY HAS LANDED.... Heathrow Airport, London....On Friday night we drove in to Changi Airport to send him off....And not only my family but this whole "gang" as well.... Aaron's church friends.... So touched to see so many of them here to send him off.... Pastor and wife...His...
FIRST TIME MAKING ASSAM FISH here in my little kitchen...I bought three pieces of Red Fish and a packet of Nyonya paste... thought of buying some ladies' fingers aka okra then saw the price RM3.50 for a packet! I put it back and chose three brinjals instead and what did I get? The brinjals cost...
I HAD A SURPRISE VISITOR THIS MORNING.... or should I say, noon... Received a call from Christopher saying he would be coming by on the way to take us out for lunch... wahhhh... who would reject that offer? hahahaha...Chris was not familiar with our area and we agreed to meet in Giant and from...
HOW DO I SPENT MY TIME... I was asked a couple of times... Now I understand how it is like to be a Very Full Time Housewife or even for one who is not a housewife but stays at home and 'keep house'...It is very time consuming to be a Home Minister... no joke! And for those who stay home and take...
ONE FINE AFTERNOON, I called up my SIL and told her to show me the way again to Pelangi Garden... suddenly I felt like having some desserts at the stalls there... When it comes to directions I am really "hopeless"... I think she has shown me a couple of times already but if I were to go by myself, I doubt I...
RECEIVED a distress call yesterday around 4pm. It was thunder and lightning in IPOH, my sis told me and while she was reversing the car, Labbie ran out. I forgot to remind my sis that once it rains, Labbie will feel very restless and scared. Sensing Labbie ran out, my sis quickly parked...
IT IS BACK TO HOME COOKING AGAIN.... The week has started... Ever since I came to Johor, I cook during the weekdays cos by the time my sons come home, it is almost 7.30pm to 8pm depending on the traffic at the customs. No point going out to have late dinner, quite tiring for my sons by the time...
BEFORE I started off with this post, I googled for the name of this restaurant, thanks to my short memory, I truly forgot the name. I remember only one word Hook and I was so surprised when this blogpost came out first on the list when I surfed. Christopher, apa la!Alright, the name of the...
OUR TIMING WAS JUST RIGHT! Spent an hour at the Gardens By The Bay and the next thing, we took a two stops MRT ride to Bugis Junction... we reached around 1.45pm and my meet-up with Sharon Lim was 2pm. We made a rendezvous at the water fountain at Bugis Mall... Where the shopping starts here for the two...
IT WAS A HOT SUNNY DAY...!! We three ladies never thought of bringing our caps or hats thus our poor head and arms were being "skin-fried" by the blazing sun. The two younger girls do not mind the sun too much, unlike me... I kept looking and scurrying around for sheltered area to avoid the sun ray!
A ladies' day out to Singapore on our own using the Causeway Link.... for the first time we were on our own, parked our car at the Giant mall and waited for the CW bus no. 3 or 4. Either one is fine.. they will take us over to the Jurong East Mall. Alright... credit goes to my girl... she...
From Malacca, it took us more than two hours drive to reach our place in Johor. By then both Aaron and I were quite tired.. not sure whether it was the food or the drive that made us very sleepy! Anyway, we reached safely, thank God and it was really good to see our small home again after a two weeks...
AFTER our heavy lunch in Kocik Kitche, we took a walk around the vicinity despite the hot sun rays upon our poor heads. We must sweat out our calories after our delicious Peranakan meal otherwise we we end up growing sideways again.... hahahaa....Along the way, we took some pictures of the...
My girl and I went to the wrong hotel in Mid Valley... Instead of St Giles at The Gardens, we entered the Boulevard St Giles instead...both having the same name but different locations altogether.... yes, we were kind of "jakuns?" My son had not arrived yet, he came up from JB whereas we took a bus...
We checked out from St Gildes Hotel Mid Valley around noon... no proper breakfast, each of us just gulped down a bun and off we went. We wanted to leave 'space' for lunch at the historical town, Malacca! Forgotten how long it has been since I last visited this state..... Passing by the red row of...
It was almost 9pm when we finally decided to settle down for Nyonya Colors for dinner awhile ago... Too many choices really made us very undecided... and I think we settled for the wrong choice this time. Most of the food stuff were already finished by then but the only thing that attracted me to stop...
It is a "gala" night event where a group of ladies gathered for a special wedding! My sincere Congratulations to the Loving Couple...And while waiting for the dinner to commence...We the "chee mui-s" started our photographing session!There was a "potential photographer" to teach us how to pose...
