Pasta - kid's favourite

They like it. Packed lots of minced beef for A. Throw in mushrooms and bell peppers. I guess that should make for a good dinner :)

Packing on the veggies

I Salad for lunch and a bit of dinner.

Lettuce, cherry tomatoes, grapes, apples, olives, eggs, goat's cheese and Italian dressing.

Not too bad. Just need to cut back on the dressing next time.

Who are you?

I've been keeping up with the Korean dramas lately after I'm done with the reality varieties. Just something trivial... I realized that apart from the romance element which was found commonly in K-dramas, these dramas I watched recently could be broadly categorized under another theme - "Who Are You" (secret identities) even though they were of different genre!

Here goes the list (all very watchable!):

1. Yong Pal
Who are you, Kim Tae Hyun? A doctor or a quack (Yong Pal)?

2. School 2015
Who are you, Ko Eun Byeol? The popular student or victim of bullying (Lee Eun Bi)?

3. Oh My Ghostess
Who are you, Na Bong Sun? The assistant chef or the ghost (Shin Soon Ae)?

4. Hyde, Jekyll, Me
Who are you, Koo Seo Jin? The strict or the sweet (Robin)?

5. She Was Pretty
Who are you, Kim Hye Jin? The ugly but familiar or the pretty (Min Ha Ri)?

6. Kill Me Heal Me
Who are you, Cha Do Hyun? The gentleman, the bomb-maker uncle (Perry Park), the dangerous and cool (Shin Se Gi), the suicidal teenage boy (Ahn Yo Seob), the idol-chasing teenage girl (Ahn Yo Na), the little girl with bear (Na Na), or the mysterious Mr X (Father of Na Na)?

A on a Hunt

I took A to library this evening (B was having her lesson and DC was doing his grocery shopping).

While I was searching for books to borrow, A came to me and asked me to help him find "15".

"15? What 15?"
"Shelf 15!"
"Oh book shelf No. 15!"
"Yes! Help me find!"

He couldn't find the library book shelf number "15" and pleaded me to look for it with him.

And so, A and I went on a hunt for the number "15" in the library.

Strangely, even I could not find it... There were 1, 2, 3...14 and there were 16, 17, ...22 but there was no 15!

After a few rounds of walking, we sought the librarian's help to locate the "missing" shelf.

"Ask and you shall be granted" That's what I told him, hehe...

Alas! The librarian couldn't find it too! But, she had her means...she went to the lift lobby, checked the directory and managed to lead us to the mystery shelf. :)

"找到了!" A exclaimed excitedly.

That ended our mini hunting game at the library... So it was a magazine rack!

Here's A and his 15:)

I love that ramen

Addicted to ramen recently. Right here in Suntec. The outlet is Keisuke Tokyo. They have tonkotsu (pork broth), shoyu, miso tonkotsu and anchovies soup. You can select whether to have less oil, less flavour for the soup and soft, normal or hard for the noodles.

I went for less oil, less flavour and normal for noodles. I find it just right. Full of flavour without getting too greasy. The noodles is so QQ, I think I basically just slurp it all up!

You only need order a bowl with single slice of pork. The 3-piece one is too full, even for big appetite me. 

Satisfying, fantastic. $14 including taxes. Shiok!

=======================================================================
As usual, I wanted to go to all the places that James Bond had visited in the movie!

Love the way they start the movie (is there really a day of the dead in Mexico?) and love the theme song they played at the beginning.

Hmm... they made it seem like the last movie installment, wonder if it was really the case?

TKD Grading

A had his TKD grading and we witnessed the whole process.

The purpose of us enrolling him to the sport was to build discipline in him and to tone him up.

During the grading, we saw how he moved his feet and body according to his master's orders, and broke the board with his bare hand with one strike, much to our surprise. I say, we pretty much achieved our aim! :) Undeniably, the credit went to the Master as few could move A like he did!

At the end of the session, he was presented with a yellow belt and we took a family picture together.

Look at how happy A was and how B posed for the picture...

It was a memorable occasion! Mummy's really proud of you, A! :)

In the Eyes of A

 

I took this picture of A this morning on the way to the doctor's. (He was having cough on every other day for quite a while during this Haze period.)

What a handsome boy he looked in his mummy's eyes...

And strangely, in this same picture, you can see how he saw his Mummy and Daddy, in his eyes!

What can you see in the eyes of A?

I saw Mummy the photo-taking fanatic who always try to capture his every moment in life and Daddy the back-facing driver of his life! :)

After this picture, he requested for more pictures to be taken - of his new shoes, his hands and of his "Mercedes" driving wheels! Cool boy he was, in his sunglasses!

 

New Blog Header

It's been such long time since the change of the last blog header! We've been terribly busy in the past year that we overlooked the entry of the blog!

The new blog header features a picture we took during the SG50 National Day, that's why we're all in red! At a place that the family love...Gardens By The Bay. :)

Also updated the sidebar:
- Removed the twitter updates since we seldom tweet now
- Removed the community logo since it never served the desired purpose it was set out for
- Re-arranged the widgets to move the popular posts and my precious up
- Re-activated the ads (in progress)

Hi, my Name is Elsa Anna

"My Name is R. Elsa Anna C.!"

"Mummy, can you help me tie Elsa (or Anna) hair?"

"I want a long Elsa dress, Mummy!"

"Can I have a Elsa birthday party, Mummy?"

Rapunzel and Beauty were of the past and now comes Elsa! My 3yo girl was so in love with the characters of the popular movie Frozen that she now owned quite a number of its merchandise! Bag, long gown, crown, yellow blouse, doll, lego set...

To add to her collection, my sis brought her a new dress, a pink blouse and a white skirt with sparkles from Bossini. We got it on Fri and she wore them right away on the next opportunity on Sun!

Here's my Elsa shopping for more "Elsa" clothes on Sun at H&M:

I was quite fascinated by the vast collection the store got, they even had the jackets and boots for the winter! There, we bought her a new gown, a skirt, a leggings and a pack of Frozen socks... There were also the cute little shoes, blouses, PJs that the girly me also adored, I'll probably pay the store another visit to grab them all for her, hehe...

Today, she added to her collection an Elsa necklace which the nanny's daughter bought for her. Needless to say, she's thrilled over it!

[Updated on 23 Oct 2015] Another pink Frozen blouse from nanny! She wore it to her ballet lesson!
