Since Ashley spends most of her afternoons in the office, we moved her wooden table and chairs there. This way, she would have a proper place to eat and do her homework. As a replacement, we bought her a set of Ikea Mammut Table and Chairs…..all in pink which she picked out herself. Of course she is delighted to have a new set of furniture in her favorite colour They don’t go very well with our existing furniture but what to do eh?

Did you know that amongst all tea, Green Tea has the least caffeine and it contains the highest amount of health benefits? Green Tea is a powerful antioxidant which can reduce the risk of stroke, heart failure, cancer and diabets. Those who have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Cholesterol, Infection Impaired Immune Function and need a Detox ought to drink Green Tea.
What I like about C2 – Cool and Clean Green Tea is that it is not too sweet. It is best to chill them before drinking. C2 – Cool and Clean Green Tea is definitely a healthier alternative to carbonated drinks. Which flavor is my favourite? Well I have to say that I like all 3 of them
If you would like to try this refreshing drink, just head over to 7-11, Mydin, Giant, Jusco or other shops near you.

This year I am so far behind. I have yet to do some thorough cleaning around the house like scrubbing the tiles, cleaning the kitchen cabinets, washing the windows and etc. I also have not bought all the stuff I need to buy like cookies, mandarin oranges, haven’t got a haircut and worse….I haven’t even bought any new clothes for myself. Went to the mall today with the intention of shopping for a nice top but couldn’t find any and I walked till I almost dropped There is only one more weekend before the Year of the Tiger arrives. Luckily I bought Ashley’s clothes a few months ago and recently her por por bought her a pair of new shoes and skirt. Will blog about this later. These are some of the things that I managed to do for my house.
My bamboo sticks decorated with some red velvet twine and 4 branches of red flowers.
I bought a funny looking fish to hang outside my house. I should have bought the butterflies.
Got a red colour wooden bowl for decoration. Just want to get something red for the tv stand I’ll probably put some mandarin oranges in it.
Chinese New Year is less than a month away. It is time to make way for good luck and fortune in the coming year. The Chinese always believe that it is very important to give the house a thorough cleaning to clear away rubbish and sweep away all the misfortune. It is also equally important to de-clutter the home and get organized. I plan to do so very soon and one of the biggest problem areas in my house is my living room. When you have a kid, there is bound to be toys everywhere. There are also a number of cellphones and bunches of keys sitting on the top of our console table. Besides those things, sometimes there are paper clips, hair clips and what-have-yous on the table. One word – Messy. I want to get this area organized with great discounts from Organized.com. I just saw some fabulous basket containers from Organized.com. These stunning square baskets are made from hand woven pandan and are just perfect for me to put all the cellphones, keys and knick-knacks in. I can even use the large one to keep the toys. I love the colour red on these storage baskets as red is an auspicious colour for the Chinese New Year. I cannot wait to get my home organized in time to welcome the new year.
I am boiling another pot of Luo Han Guo drink today. Hubs is coughing a bit and my throat feels itchy. MIL has been coughing and sniffling too. Since Ashley just recovered from her cough recently, I thought I better boil this drink for everyone at home. The cough virus is going around Luo Han Guo is well known for its sweet taste and is part of the Gourd family. It is a medicinal herb for treating cough, sore throat and expel phlegm. Too bad it does not promote weight loss, otherwise, I would drink this every day
I used 2 medium sized Luo Han Guo
About 6 pieces of mut cho (dried dates)
Put everything into a pot and boil for over 2 hours in low heat. I can smell the aroma of the Luo Han Guo now so I guess, my drink is almost ready Ashley does not like this drink at all but I force make her drink it.
I always find that the stairway walls in my house pretty boring and intend to decorate it as soon as we moved in. It is not an easy space to decorate because of its odd shape So…it has been almost 2 years since we moved in and I finally moved my butt and got some frames. Developed these photos for many months already and now they can be displayed.
Still not enough frames. Time to go to Ikea
A view from the bottom of the stairs. Still pretty plain huh?
Yesterday evening, we went to Mid Valley for the Maybank Treats Fair. Since hubs collected many points from this Maybank credit card, the treats fair is a yearly affair for us. Shopaholic, what to do? I got a hotpot to replace our existing one which is already 4 years old.
Kenwood Thermopot for 24,000 points
Hubs couldn’t decide what to get so when he saw this Skippy Ball, he had to get it for his princess. 9,000 points, I think.
When I first saw this Playgo Travel Mate in the Maybank brochure, I knew I had to get one for the missy. It is so colourful. I never had one like this when I was a kid I think this one was redeemed with 13000 points.
Ashley said she wants to put her clothes in this bag when we go back to Ipoh next week I know, I know….some time back, I did mention that we need to stop buying toys for Ashley. Sigh…we must really put a stop to this madness as our house now looks like a smaller version of Toys R Us that has been run over by a tornado. We have to be strong and not succumb to the temptation

Last night when my husband was at our porch, he noticed something big and black at the electrical cables above our front door. He got a bit of a shock when he first saw it. After a while, he realized that it was bird. As it was night time, he couldn’t see clearly what sort of a bird it was. When he came up to the bedroom, he told me there was big black bird near our front door. I felt uneasy as I thought it was a crow because I never like them. This morning I quickly went out to see if the bird was still there. It was and Thank God, it’s not a crow. It’s a fat pigeon
Now, the most important thing is …..How to make it go away? It is easier to find a disability insurance than to get the bird to leave O_O There are droppings everywhere on the floor and also my chair which is right beneath this bird *sigh*
They don’t go very well with our existing furniture but what to do eh?
