Pearl barley

In: Family

Cooked a whole pot full of barley water with beancurd for the hubs over the weekend. Must say I think it was quite yummy, just a tad too sweet for my taste, but nothing that some additional water can’t fix. The poor thing’s been hacking away since 2 weeks ago…a combination of stress, lack of rest has just made […]

itchy scratchy

argh…got super sunburnt last weekend while at the beach in Sentosa. The weather was iffy. Dark clouds overhead, strong winds, everyone was predicting rain and thunderstorms!
So I ignored sunblock and just played a bit of volleyball, read my magazine and basically vegged out at the beach. Before we knew it, the sun was blazing hot […]

The dog and the hubs are snoring in symphony these days.

My Favourite Family Routine

In: Family, love

From the soundtrack of The Sound of Music, Maria singing about her favourite things: 
“ Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things…
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don’t […]

Drive Trip to Perth

We did a last minute family holiday trip to Perth. It was a drive trip to see the sights, and the only agenda was to drink wine, eat good food and just relax.
Perth is really pretty…clean, beautiful beaches, friendly people, lovely landscapes. I could learn to live there!

     Will be adding in more pics in my […]
