Sibling

School

My class almost settles down just left 1 or 2 still need take some time, hopefully after Chinese New Year all can settle down. My girls like the school so much, they had no problem with it and manage to follow what teacher said.

Sibling

Yesterday morning, I changed my girls’ uniform and they will button up their button by themselves. Carrie have no problem to button up the button but Carol can’t do it maybe because she still sleepy, so Carrie help her to do it. After I change my son I walked out the bedroom I saw the pic below, so touches and warm. They will help each other when the other needs help.

Baby ~ Kor Kor

I son want a big brother so much, he keep on asking me to give birth a baby so that when the baby grow up will be his kor kor.

Carter : mummy, you make a baby lar, next time the baby eat more more things so he can be a kor kor.
1+2 mom : no, if mummy got baby it will be your ‘di di’ (small brother)not your kor kor.

Carter : I want kor kor, why Jeremy (his classmate) got 2 kor kor and I dun have?
1+2 mom : because his mummy gave birth of the 2 kor kor first so he have 2 kor kor.

Carter : I want kor kor, you make baby for me lar.
1+2 mom : I dunwan.

This quarreling can not finish until we talk other topic.

My Favorite Chef ~ Rachael Ray on Spock

I like to cook, especially the recipes that from Rachael Ray. You guys know that I’m busy taking care of 3 children and have no time to cook. She is my favorite chef that her recipes can be prepared in 30 minute and delicious too. I wound like to know more about her and search about her profile through Spock and found that so much useful information about her. This information I can’t get it easily through other search engine.

The Spock that I used to find her information is a unique search engine that to search people by typing their names, e-mail, or tag like personal attribute such as brown eyes, chef, black hair, etc. You just need to register with Spock.com and add your personal profile together with your picture and tags. Beside that, you can link your own blog, myspace, linkedIn or other web to your Spock profile. Your friends, relative or family member can start find you in Spock easily and this search engine is suitable for professional and social purposes.

Back to my favorite chef Rachael Ray, what I found from the result that I searched was she is an Emmy-award winning television personality and author, who currently hosts the syndicated talk/lifestyle program “Rachael Ray” and another 2 Food Network series, “30 Minute Meals" and "Rachael Ray's Tasty Travels". She has also written a series of cookbooks based on the "30 Minute Meals" concept, and launched a magazine, "Every Day with Rachael Ray", in 2005. I also know that she was born on August 25, 1968 in Glens Falls, New York.

From the information that I get above, I can’t resist to find more information about other chef or friends out there. It is how nice you can find back your old friends and meet other new friends online, right?

Some update

Almost 2 weeks didn’t update my blog, until I can’t stand it so just write down some of it. I’m too buzy this 2 weeks, need to adjust my time back to normal first then I got time to update my blog.

Last Monday, my girls celebrate their birthday at school. They were so happy and 1+2 dad also went to school to celebrate with them but I can’t join them because I still have a class to handle and this year got few are so handful so need to pay more attention to them.




Wednesday went to buy some ingredients for making cheese cake and chocolate cookies with my colleague. We decided to make it at her home, actually I went there to learn to make chocolate cookies cause the cheese cake I learned it when school open day at school. (They brought the oven to bake cake there).

Thursday, I had made the seaweed with popia skin at home. This type of snack was teaches by sister last year and my family member like it so much so this year I do it again. At nite we went to NiuZheXui at Ara Damansara for a walk. It was a new place and something like Petaling Street had a lot of things to buy, but not all the shop has open.

Saturday, I and my kids went to my colleague’s house to make cookies and cake after we had our breakfast. It kind of easy and my son like it so much. This weekend we will do it again.

The recipes of The Seaweed with Popia skin :

Instant Seaweed (you can get at shopping center)
Popia skin (Medium size)
White egg


1. Brush the white egg on the whole piece of Popia skin.
2. Put the seaweed on the other half of the popia (recommend to place the full of seaweed on the half piece of popia skin, it will more tasty)

3. Fold half to stick together.

4. Keep a side later you can cut into small pieces with scissors then fried it.


p/s : The cheese cake and chocolate cookies recipes will post up later because I forgot where I put my book, need to find it tomorrow.

New Year's Traditions Tag

I got this tag from Hazel, thanks Hazel. It abit late, but to avoid another tag to be delay so i do it now. Jacss still own you the tag..hehe..will do it soon.

The tag is goes like this :

What are some of your new year’s good luck traditions?
Rules :Copy the person and persons’ names that sent it to you and add your own at the bottom of the list. It really helps to build community.
Lets start it here!

*My mom used to collect some coins and when the new year comes she put the coins in a bowl and shake it to create sounds. She said its good luck for money throughout the year. And also wearing dotted dresses on new year don’t know why. CC/chalyza/keep

*My old folks always told us to avoid spending money on new years day. They said, once you spend on the first day of the year, you like to spend the rest of the year.Behind d Scenes of ME/ Retchel’s Pure Life/ /A little bit of me

*I grew up believing that if you have some money on your pocket (whatever you’re wearing) come New Year’s eve it will ensure steady flow of income throughout the year. The other belief is that the main door of the house should be wide open come New Year’s eve so that good luck will be ushered in. Juliana of MY WORLD and JULIANA’S LAIR.

*I don't have any traditionals during New Year. Juliana RW

*I have keep a RM50 note which the serial number is begin with number 8 and end up with number 8 also, between the number, it’s not encourage to have number 4 and number 0. By doing this we will have steady income throughout the whole life. It’s not easy to find such note. Another ways is to keep your “Ang Pao” in your pocket or put it inside your pillow on the New Year eve before you sleep. Hazel

*At my father home, we will clean up the floor b4 the 1st day of Chinese New Year (b4 12am to CNY). My mum wont allowed us to sweep the floor on the first 2 days of CNY. At my in law here, we will went to the buddist society to pray for the family to have good luck and health in the year. 1+2 mom

I'm tagging for those who want to do this tag and wish you all the best in this coming rat year.

Updated photos

This is the back dated post about some photos we took last week.

On 23rd, my 2 sisters with her kids (youngest sis) and we (except 1+ 2dad) went to watch Barney show on 1 Utama. We reached there almost 2.30pm, so we go get a nice place to sit and wait the Barney show start. The kids keep on asking us when the show start because they start gets boring for waiting so long. Luckily the show start on time and they very happy to watch it, the show was nice but I prefer last year show.

After the show, we went to have our lunch and back to my house because my no.2 sis going to meet her friends at Serdang to have her dinner with them. My youngest sis and her kids were at my house and after take our dinner we went to another shopping center – The Curve to see their decoration there.

Once again, 1+2dad didn’t go with us but he fetches us there and he went to find his friend to have a cup of tea. Just on time we reached there about 7.30pm and able to watch the light show there. The decoration was very nice, so bright and grand. At 8pm, it was a band performance there and we thought the snowing will drop in indoor at 8.30pm but we wait about 15min still didn’t see any snow drop so we decided to go Ikano. Aiks..when we wanted to find the shortcut to Ikano we saw the snowing was outside the open area. Luckily the kids are able to play with it some time. Carter wanted to go again but I told him Christmas was over, it had no more snow the next day. We took some photos at Ikano and walk around and call 1+2dad to fetch us back.

On 24th, it was my working day so we didn’t go any place to countdown but we drop by to Popular at Jaya supermarket to get some book. I heard it will close down after 13 Jan 2008 to shift to Jaya 33.

On 25th Christmas day, the kids get their present once they woke up in the morning. Carol so happy to get her horse as her present but Carrie didn’t. Carter also happy to get his fire fighter set that he aim for so long. (I forgot to take his pic when he open the present at upstair).

Yesterday 1+2dad brought us to Jusco at Bukit Tinggi, it was huge but not as big as 1 Utama. Their theme is Disney Princesses. Carol and Carter had a very good mood and they keep on asking us to snap their photo but Carrie not in good mood. We went there about 3 hours and back to home. Late about 4pm I went to Giant with Carter to buy some snack for the new kids when school reopens. Hope this year won’t be so taught to handle the 4 years old kids without any helper (there will be 15 children in my class).

p/s : I think I’ll be less update next week until the class settle down. Carol & Carrie also will start school next week and we will celebrate their birthday in school too. It will be late to celebrate in school so we will do it at home on the date (5th Jan) and a party for them in school.

Happy New Year !!!

This few weeks quite buzy with the preparation for school reopen, will upload some photos that taken on the Christmas day later. B4 year 2007 end, i wish all of you

Christmas Feel at 1 Utama

Yesterday we went to 1 Utama to see their decoration. This year the decoration is quite nice with a very big nutcracker and the little nutcracker around him that play the musical instrument. We also saw the real nutcracker standing there and let the people take photo with him.

We thought to watch Barney at Old Wing near the Jusco but yesterday show was at 5 & 8 pm so we decided to go there on this Sunday. The show time for Barney that for who interested want to go are :

Monday till Thursday : 5 & 8 pm.
Saturday & Sunday : 3, 5 & 8pm

Who interested to let your children take photo and close up with the Barney you can get ticket at the information nearby, it valid for 50 children per session. If not mistaken, I remember this show will end on 25th.

Today I went back to school to learn baked cake with 1 of my colleague. Last time she was a baker, so today she teaching us to make cheese cake & durian cake. My son love the cheese cake very much, I hope I can make 1 if 1 get the new over later. I forgot to bring my camera along so no pic to show the cake look like but it was so delicious.

I meet 1 of the blogger when I at school, her son will join our school next year. Actually I also very long didn’t drop by to her blog and she told me she very less update her blog. She said she recognize my daughters so she asking me whether I know her colleague (my ex-classmate) or not and told me she read my blog. Wow, frighten me that I dunno will meet a blogger here and her son maybe will be my student next year..what a pressure.

At last, I wish all of you :

Shopping at Mid Valley

This morning we went to Mid Valley shopping, actually not shopping we decided to snap some photo there because my friends said the decoration at there was very nice. We reached there around 10.30am and had our breakfast cam lunch at the food court there. Thought to invite Jacss to join us but too bad her helper was cleaning up their house so she couldn't join us.

Thought to go there eat the Portuguese grill fish but the shop hasn’t ready yet. We go order the Chinese fried food. About 11.00am, we still eating and heard the centre court had the Santa photo snapping event had start. After the lunch, we went to the exhibition hall to have a look about the Play-Ex function. We bought a set of 6 small transformers (can make to 1 big robot) as my son Christmas present. The gals present we will buy it later, any idea to get what present for 4 years old girls?

Bought a Strawberry Short cake movie for the gals and b4 we went home we go get their milk powder at a shop at Taman Megah. The first things when we reached home, my son call us to open his 6 little transformers for him.

Next week we will go The Curve to see the decoration there and sent my son to the cookies workshop too.

Yesterday, I had made a musical instrument from the recycle box for my son (guitar). He also gets some idea to make the drum with 2 tins of cookies container and hit with the chopstick. I get 2 emptier yogurt cups to put some red bean inside for the gals to shake. Carter goes make our bedroom to his music room with all the rules listed in front of the door. They hit and shake the musical instrument inside the room..wow ..what a sound pollution.

Little update

Yesterday was our 10th registered anniversary; we didn’t go anywhere because I working and no leave to take some more 1+2dad also working. Last Wednesday (5th December), was our 8th wedding anniversary. I almost forgot to update it in my blog, I was in training so this year we didn’t celebrate this occasion.

Wah, from the date above I already married 8 years. It not a very long marriage but between these years we had a lot of quarrel sometime we also mention about divorce. After the big fight, we still stick together I think is because of ‘LOVE’, if not I dun think we still together. We came along so many problems and finally we still in a Happy Family, that why I put this as my blog title I love my family so much. They are my very important family member and my life too. From we meet until we built a family and now with 3 kids, you had done your good job.
"I Love You so much, Darling."

Beside that, our washing machine had ’running our of service’ 4 days ago (it with us about 6 years) so I need to wash all the laundry with hand..wow..it so tired. Luckily today the brand new washing machine was in time so tonite I no need wash with my hand.

Economic and Reliable Pressure Washer

Last week my father went to our house, at that moment he steps in to the house he saw my husband washing his car using the pressure washer. He is wonder where we get this pressure washer from and it is so useful. I introduce him to DeWALT Pressure Washer that it is a heavy-duty gas pressure washer and it designed for commercial used.

The DeWALT Pressure Washer come equipped with industrial-grade pumps, heavy-duty engines, 16-gauge steel frames and large, 12-inch tires. This pressure washer is built from the ground up with only quality materials being used and it reliable. It is also suitable for home use like to clean up the wall, car pouch and gate easily. Just a press of button you can do the job fast and clean.

Young looking

Last week I had my training at Puchong, I saw 2 teachers from other center are quite pretty and young looking. When we chatting, I just realize they are going to 50 years old and their kids are from 15-18 years old.

I asked them how they can keep young looking, they said they can keep young looking because of they teach in the kindergarten with those small kids and play with them. The kids make them happy and enjoy the life.

On the last day, I brought along with my son. Some of the teacher ask me weather he is my son, when I said yes they look at me so surprise and told me that I’m just look like 20+ and haven’t married. I laugh and told them I already have 3 children and I 30+ of age.

The year end trip

My father are going to visit my mum at USA end of the month, he would like to celebrate the Christmas there as well. He asking me to check the hotel and the flight to New York online, he wanted to get the best price for this holiday seasons. It reminds me the hotel reservations can get the cheaper price that I had got it for my sister to UK. This time I also will get the best deal for my father to New York so that he can save more money to spend in US to get more gifts for us.
