Renee's artwork

All the kids drew stairs...

Renee was absent on the day when all kids drew their stairs... So she had a makeup lesson for it after many weeks...

Here's her artwork... LOL!

With her scary smiley faces... ;)

羊年初二

Renee had fulfilled her CNY resolution...

"新年可以吃 chocolate "

 

Almost every house she visited, she had 1-2 rocher chocolates. LOL!!

Also, her new interest is to stir the louhei even when she could hardly hold the chopsticks. Very interesting >,<

Our family photo... Hahaha!

Very cheeky Phoebe also turned cranky today. Without much appetite, she refused lunch, refused to wear her jumper, refused to take photos...

Thank you, dear, for everything! ^^

2015 羊年初一

大女似乎已经知道什么是过新年。

这阵子，大女都会碎碎念着：“新年可以吃 chocolate 哦！”

大年初一早上起床便跟妹妹说：“新年不可以哭哦！”

小女则懵懵懂懂，学会了恭喜恭喜。收了红包还会拿着，然后交给妈妈收。有趣有趣！

每一年的新年都过得 same same but different. Hahaha! ^^

小的时候常向长辈们拜年道着：“恭喜发财！”

长大后就像长辈们祝贺着：“身体健康！”

健康就是最大的财富！祝大家永保安康！

CNY eve 2015

我的中国娃娃们！

Our Long Awaited Steamboaty

First time in the past 4 years, we ever had a successful steamboat dinner...

Things always work well when you least expect it. 

Our first steamboat at this new home didn't work out well because none of us read instruction of the induction cooker. It was a lesson learnt that make this time a mini success ^^

It was a last minute decision when I went to supermarket last evening ;p

The spread was made up of very common choice of crab sticks, Chinese lettuce, enoki, fish balls, pork belly slices, chicken breast strips, baby corn, eggs, Toufu, using Maggie ikan soup with less salt and no MSG.

There's no abalone, prawn, sotong, pig organs or roast duck... But this is one of the best meals that dear and I had at home... Our mini but first very own reunion dinner with 2 girls running to the table for rice and soup, occasionally.

It really didn't matter if we were having the tastiest food but what matter more would be the companions... It simply made our dinner so fulfilling ^^

First time, we brought our girls for gai-gai (走走）at such a late time. It was not really planned but they napped during late noon which made it possible. We headed downstairs at 9pm and got home slightly before 10pm.... Managed to get Phoebe a new set of pajamas for this CNY... Phew!! ~,~

New Year mood is in the air... Specially after I got some last min decorations this noon, with Phoebe!! WuhOO ^^

And BTW, Renee helped with the making of angbao fishes this morning by drawing the eyes, cutting the angbao and stapling the rubber bands (pretty much sounded like everything) before heading to school. Hee.. So proud of her!

隔了4年的团圆饭

2011 年起，我每年的团圆饭都是跟着婆家一起吃着的。只有大年初二才回到娘家一起饱吃一顿。其实那就是团圆饭啦，不过以往都是三四代同桌！

多亏了今年的巧妙造化，我再一次荣幸与原班人马（plus plus 一大堆的 KNS - kana soon) 共餐。

虽然没有机会和堂表亲多聊；但是大家聚在一起很热闹；这就够了。

不仅是我隔了4年的团圆饭，也是我先生和两位千金首次参与的团圆饭。谢谢老公的关照（算然你可能因为吃得快而消化不良），谢谢女儿们的努力配合！哈哈哈！

这一餐，我吃得非常口干但却很尽兴。希望羊年大家都能好好地 HUAT 啊！

It's official... 我被盗了

Received my card bill this evening and saw a bill exceeding $900.

I hadn't been using this card for a long time... 

Neither had I purchased any Air tickets on Renee's first day of school!

So, I called the bank, called the airline and called the bank again to find out more About these unauthorized transactions. Finally, it was some donkey by the name of "chia teck Seng" who bought return flight to Somewhere.... 

Arghhh... This is crap! Outrageous! Beware and check your bills, everybody!!!

T__T

我要去海边

It was a super windy Saturday...

So windy that we had to wear jacket just to sit by the beach...

One of our picinic sessions at the 老地方！

Although Renee wanted to play with the sand and at the playground more than just sit and eat on the picnic mat ~,~

We had our dinner at the newly revamped New East Point at Simei... Really so beautifully done... Totally trashed Seletar Mall >,<

Oh and BTW, dear finally got some bakwa for this CNY! 好吃好吃真好吃！send some to our parents, too. Thank u, dear!

BTW, 原来我的挑食大宝一点也不挑食。她居然会吃肉干！OMG!
