Not a good month for us. It’s the old baby’s turn to fall sick. He vomitted more than 10 times from around midnite until morning as well as diarrhoea at the same time, imagine both ends! Poor guy! He either had food poisoining or gastro. He had to isolate himself in our room for two [...]

I have never known much about collecting vintage items for a hobby until I started watching an antique road show on TV. Although I am not into vintage collection, I can see why others are so keen about it especially if they inherit an heirloom be it some vintage t shirts, vase, furniture, china, etc [...]

This month had been really hectic due to some unexpected incidence. I think we need a real family holiday, just the three of us. Somewhere in a beautiful villa by the beach like in any St. Martin villa rentals. There would be no shopping, no visiting anyone, just ourselves. It would be a nice change. [...]

We were walking back towards our carpark at the mall yesterday and I noticed a car that just drove in to the parking spot clearly marked as disabled parking. I looked back and was disappointed that out came three young non disabled men from the car. They were even laughing and joking amongst themselves about [...]

Imagine a holiday in a house like this, with such view to die for. I would be over the moon to experience such a wonderful place by the sea. Fortunately such dreams are real for those who could afford to do so. The photo is one of the many breathtaking Outer Banks rentals that you [...]

A bus ticket in exchange for a movie ticket? Sounds too good to be true? Well it’s happening. I received a flyer in the mailbox with these words printed on the front: “CATCH the bus and the movies are on us – swap your bus ticket for a free movie ticket” As part [...]

I was so into baby bedding while I was pregnant with my little girl. As a first time mother, I was really excited and wanted everything to be perfect and more so when we knew we were expecting a girl. I would go oooh and aaaah over anything sweet, cute and pink. It was [...]

The Dark Knight, sequel to Batman Begins screens at Hoyts today, 17 July in Australia. I never fancied any Batman movies (although I have watched most if not all of them) until Batman Begins came along. I like Christian Bale as Batman. I wish I could watch Dark Knight at the movies too. It [...]

Awhile ago I watched this documentary about how this man decorated his entire home with secondhand stuff he got from the flea markets as well as discount furniture. You wouldn’t have guessed if you had seen his home. It was beautiful. The man in the documentary owned a huge house too. After watching that [...]

The WYD08 crowd is so huge as I saw on TV. The CBD area must be so happening. Hope all shops and eateries are having brisk business too. DH said it is awesome to hear many different accents from all over the world as he walked along the streets. Imagine people from all corners [...]

I recently watched a British reality show called Ladette to Lady. It is about how ordinary young ladies are transformed to a Lady. They go through a series of training from cooking, baking, how to walk, dance, socialize, etc including horse riding complete with equestrian clothing. At the end of each training, they are reviewed [...]

As usual, I was racing against time while browsing through the kids clothing section at BigW this afternoon. I didn’t intend to buy anything but the further reduced prices were too tempting. So I saw a 3 pc pink flanelette PJ which reads “Princess with attitude” for AU$7 and it comes with a small pouch. [...]

Dieting yet again? I must have mentioned the word “diet” for the umpteenth time. My diet always starts “tomorrow” even if you ask me tomorrow or day after. I eat when I am happy, sad, stressed … any occassion is eating time for me. There are so many weight loss fads and list of best [...]

My DH has an awfully sweet tooth or rather, “teeth”!! He often eats sugary or chocolate based snacks after dinner. If he doesn’t get his fix, he’d feel a bit uneasy *LOL* He’d usually buy a chocolate hedgehog (well I don’t know why it’s called a hedgehog, looks nothing like it except for brown colour) [...]
