We’re finally back. Home sweet home. We went back to Pomelosville for Chinese New Year celebration as usual. Had tons of fun seeing my relatives and bffs. I also got to meet some very special people during this trip. I’ll blog about it next. Ashley is very happy because she doesn’t have to go to school this whole week and has been receiving lots of angpows Here are some photos taken a few days ago.

Offering customary tea to Gung Gung on the First Day of the Chinese New Year

Ashley had a fun time in the pool at my friend’s house. The mommies were busy chatting while the kids were in the pool.

Another round of eating last night. BBQ at a friend’s house.

In 2 more days, school will resume and so is work too. Boo Hoo….the holidays are over! Since we were away for so many days, there is a huge of pile of laundry to do and cleaning around the house. Some of the things in my to-do list are to go on a diet after a few days of eating non-stop and also to check out the sterling silver earrings at ZuluMoon.com. So how was your CNY celebration?

An A-maze-ing Christmas At Mid Valley Megamall

Mommy To Chumsy — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 13:54:03 +0000

Mid Valley Megamall is having an A-Maze-ing Christmas this year. The center court is decorated with lots of greenery depicting a maze. I love how green the whole place looks. There are red poinsettias and Christmas hollies everywhere too. The decor is simple but beautiful.

Right in the center of the maze is Santa and he was there waiting for people to take a photo with him. We were there today and when the lil missy saw Santa, she didn’t run away or held on tightly to us like she did the previous years. Instead, she wanted to go near Santa. She read the information board near the maze and told us that we can take a photo with Santa and it cost only RM10 So, off we went eventhough the queue was rather long. The proceeds from the photography session go to Tung Shin Hospital.

Here is our family pic with Santa and Santarina. Too bad the children weren’t give the chance to tell Santa what they wish for this Christmas. Hmm…if that happens, I bet the queue would be much longer. Nevertheless, Ashley was a happy camper. I asked Ashley later why she did not tell Santa what her wish is and she said, “Mom, he’s not a real Santa“. I asked her how does she know he is not real? She said, “He is not from the North Pole and I didn’t see his sleigh“. Hehehehehe…yes, yes, this Santa drove to the mall in his car If you would like to take a pic with Santa, do head over to Mid Valley Megamall. Not sure if he is around on weekdays or not though

Important Nutrition During Pregnancy

Mommy To Chumsy — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 23:00:43 +0000

When I was pregnant with Ashley, I remember reading about playing music or reading to the child in the womb which assist in their mental development. As parents, we all want to do the best for our children. Besides teaching a child before he or she is born, the physical environment of the womb as well as the whole of the mother’s body is critical to a child’s growth and development.

In order for a healthy pregnancy, mothers must eat a balance diet which consists of fresh vegetables and fruit. Eating fish is good too as fish contains essential fatty acids that are known to boost brain growth. Another way of ensuring good nutrition during pregnancy is to eat or drink at least three servings of dairy products and food rich in calcium a day. Extra calcium is required for bone growth and teeth formation in the child.

Mamil Mama which consist of IMMUNOFORCE is specially formulated to take care of the special needs of women who are planning to have babies, expecting and lactating mothers. IMMUNOFORCE is a clinically proven prebiotic which helps to fight harmful bacteria growth in the gut by increasing good bacteria growth.

This is highly important to ensure the healthy development of the foetus as well as the child when they breastfeed. Get Mamil Mama with IMMUNOFORCE today to give your child a solid foundation.

something new for me

Elaine has been telling me about Chatimes but I only got to try the drinks there recently when one opened at Scott Garden near where I stay. Best of all, there is no queue at this one. Chatimes is the Premium Pearl Milk Tea chain from Taiwan which is mushrooming around KL now. Chatimes is extremely popular and I find it kinda odd because bubble teas have been around for quite a while. Many say that they have the original taste of tea, unlike the local bubble tea places. Anyway, I’m quite hooked right now. I don’t drink tea so I usually order their Ice Coffee with different types of jellies. Mmmm….yums.

when life gives you lemons

….. instead of making lemonade, why not make Lemon Foot Scrub? I decided to give it a try after seeing the steps online

Here are the Ingredients :-

1/2 cup sea salt
1/2 cup olive oil/vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon orange zest

Pour salt into a bowl and slowly drizzle in the oil. You may not need all that is called for in the recipe.

Then add in 1 tsp of lemon zest and 1 tsp of orange zest

Mix well.

Pour the mixture into an airtight container. I got some Spice Jar from Ikea just for that. Made a few bottles for my guinea pigs dear friends recently.

Scrubs are great for exfoliating the skin. Its rough texture helps to remove toxins and dead skin that may be blocking the pores. Let me know if you want to whip up this easy DIY Lemon Sea Salt Foot Scrub. Happy weekend everyone!

a fabulous one

Happy Monday peeps. The weekend went by so quickly. I had such an awesome time with my BFFs. It was a few days of laughter, tears (from laughing so hard), good food and great fun. We checked into a hotel in Pomelosville for the gathering, went out for a sumptuous dinner at a Chinese restaurant and sang/dance the night away at a Karaoke. We sang songs that are the soundtrack of our lives, you know…. those that bring back childhood memories of our friendships, first love and all other memories…. Sometimes I wish that I could go back into time when everything seemed so carefree and much simpler.

We had JJ Swiss rolls – Chempedak, Durian, Coffee Walnut and more, all in the fridge in the hotel just in case we’re hungry

One of my friends brought some Red Ginseng Collagen Essense masks for everyone to use so that we’ll look good and refresh the next day after a long night So thoughtful eh?

Yes, I brought the little one along with me and she also had a great time singing her fav songs at the Karaoke. I feel so old when she’s singing songs by Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry! We left the place at 2am and she only slept around 3am.

The weekend was too short for me and I am missing my girlfriends badly Can’t wait till we see each other again. Till then, we just had to make do with facebook, msn or skype I am so thankful for my friends. They keep me sane and grounded. Hope you all had a fab weekend.

A Simple Dinner

I was kinda lazy to cook after a long day out today so I went to the fridge to check out what I can make in a jiffy. I saw a packet of Whole Wheat Tortilla which I got from Tesco last week. Totally forgotten about this.

Luckily I had some Honey Glazed Ham in the freezer too

Fried some eggs.

Put 1 tsp of mayonnaise made with free range eggs from Tesco onto the tortilla as well as a piece of ham, egg and lettuce. Roll everything up and It’s a Wrap! A simple and yummy dinner for us.
