I Love CAPS



When Sam was younger, he hates to wear caps. As he grow older(& more 'vain' I think), he loves wearing his caps, strange eh! He will cry if you try taking it off his head unless we reached home. It's hard to find nice and fitting caps for him, if any of you know where, let me know.

Bake Craze #2 Attempt

Yes, we're so happy that the oven works well now, it has given us hell of a time in the past, the whole house power supply will trip when we turn the oven on and hubby has to use extension cord to try various power points in the house to get it working. Feeling so fustrated, he dismantled the wiring of the power plug of the oven and 're-wired' it!

These are what we made over the weekends...this time round...the taste is 'very good'...IMO!



This batch is banana yogurt muffins w/ walnut(inside), still perfecting! Receipes from www.littlegastronomy.blogspot.com . :)


Banana Bread w/apricots - 2nd attempt done by my hubby...turned out quite good, moist and soft! Receipe from 'Kak'. :)

Baking #1 - Banana Bread






Suddenly had an urge to bake after reading a receipe from Company's Coming(Author: Jean Pare), given to me by my BIL in Cananda last December.
1st attempt - not quite successful as i mis-read 'ml' for 'g'...for flour and walnut, ended up the whole bread was so heavy...(see the bread nearly split into two...hee hee). You would either like it or dislike it, people who like strong heavy tasting food will give thumbs up! IMHO: 6/10 only! I will try it again...

Going TWO soon...

Sam in sunday nursery class in church, enjoying his biscuit snack time! This is the only time that he will sit down and munch, the teachers recently feedback that he has such big strength that he will pushed away those heavy cabinets/shelves surrounding the play area and sneak out!! Ooops...did we feed him too much beef?

This is Sam's 2nd birthday gift from us ... he was frighten when I used the 'remote control' with him in the car and refused to sit inside! I got this 'mini' from a BP spree, abt 25% cheaper than retail price. He rather his teddy bear sit inside than him, hopefully he will overcome this fear soon. He is also scared of those coin operated kiddy rides...*faint*.

Trip to Farmart




Mummy & Daddy brought me to Farmart for the first time, there's really nothing much to see except alot of live seafood there. We didn't buy much stuff except for some yummy freshly based portugese egg tarts, a box of quail eggs and some vegetables.

Animal prints



I meant to buy animal prints bedsheet set but ended up with quilt cover set! It is really upsetting, got con by the packaging, it stated 'queen fitted sheet', ended up is quilt cover set! Argh... good thing i didn't paid a bomb for it, it was S$39, so it was a steal instead. In this warm weather, we just use it as a blanket w/o the full works(quilt) and i used a similar blue(same shade of blue as the elephant) bedsheet to complement it. Samuel loves the animal prints and will point to them when he sleep on our bed. Of of us still need to fall asleep with him on this bed before transferring him to his playpen. Very soon, we are going to transit him to sleep on the mattress...on the floor!

1 week ago - new hair cut


After 10-15mins of crying, a tired & sleepy Sam you see! It is still a tedious chore to bring him for haircut, hope this phase will pass soon and we will bring him for cut more often to help him overcome the ordeal. This time round, no fancy hair salon, this is $5 at a barber which is 2 bus stops away from where we live. Be it $5 or $20 haircut, he also cries his lung out!
