I came across these magic hair pads on Qoo10 when I was hunting for interesting knick knacks and was quite intrigued by the listing description on the usefulness of these pads. These pads were also highly recommended by the popular Taiwanese beauty talk show 女人我最大. Actually these pads are really just standard velcro that we see […]

It’s been a long while since I last ate corn muffins at Kenny Rogers Roasters. And I remembered how warm, fluffy and moist they were each time I took a bite into them. I came across a box of corn meal at Cold Storage one day and decided to try creating these muffins at home. […]

I love spring rolls. Be it fresh or fried. I just love how the different ingredients come together in a wrap just like the Mexican burrito except that you get a sweeter crunch of vegetables that makes you want more and more. I can probably eat 4-5 big rolls in one go. And when I […]

A glimpse of my Daiso shopping haul this weekend! Here’s what I spotted in the store this time: Items 1. Baking sieve for sifting all the dry ingredients such as flour, baking powder, etc to remove any lumps or bugs 2. Cake decorator to create patterned designs on the sides of creamed/frosted cakes 3. Metal spatula […]

The husband wanted to go Queensway Shopping Centre to hunt for his Nike Dunk Low Sneakers but to no avail so we ended up in McDonald’s for tea and shared their newest Rendang Burger set. Double Beef Rendang Burger with Medium Fries & Small Coke When I opened the paper packaging of the burger, I […]

He just called. And he left for Redang. I really have a great phobia of picking up the phone these days. Because most of the times, the calls do not bring me good news. They would make me feel nauseated & dizzy. And the worst? I’d become hysterically agitated and my blood pressure will shoot […]

I’ve been wanting to try Monster Curry for quite a while but whenever I pass by one, the long queue just puts me off. I finally got the chance to one weekday before the peak lunch hour. Monster Curry claims to be the biggest and heaviest Japanese Curry Rice in Singapore. Probably yes because it’s […]

I wrote this poem when someone precious left the house in which I grew up in and since then home had become a cold and distant thing. The many pains that followed stuck with me till today. I hadn’t manage to forgive and forget but I’m trying my best. After all, life is an unfinished […]

I felt absolutely gutted that I didn’t get a last chance to dine at Zhou’s Kitchen before it made its exit from Singapore last week. I’m sure my mother would be equally disappointed too because we had enjoyed their value-for-money weekday high tea buffets in the past whenever we had to go TTSH for her […]

Mondays are my husband’s eat-in days so he and his colleagues will have lunch meetings in the office instead of heading out to eat. For health reasons, he has requested me to make lunch for him since outside food tends to be oily and may contain MSG. As there isn’t a microwave in his office […]

Not only it looks pretty, this Swedish-version of roast potatoes is very easy to make. It makes a great starter or side for any meal. Or simply add your favourite toppings like bacon or cheese and have it on its own. Hasselback Potatoes Recipe Ingredients russet potatoes, washed and patted dry salt freshly ground black […]

I love writing, that’s why I enjoy blogging but not many people know that I pen poems too. The thing about poetry is that it need not be a refined form of art because it is more of an expression of our thoughts and feelings and a reflection of our state of mind. Writing a […]

I’m a big fan of Daiso where every item is priced at S$2.00 each and I actually shop at Daiso every weekend just to hunt out interesting finds and handy tools for the home & kitchen. My husband doesn’t think the same way. Whenever I head to Daiso, he’d pull a long face and nag […]

I have eczema-prone sensitive skin since my late teen years and hence I’m always careful in choosing the right skincare products for my skin type. Even though I’m in my 30s now, I’m still getting the frequent bouts of pimple eruption that easily cause scarring on my face. Some years back, I started using some […]

If you often cook prawns/shrimps at home, do reserve the prawn heads & shells (they can be kept in the freezer for months so just keep accumulating) so you can make prawn stock in the future. Nothing ever goes to waste! Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee is a very popular hawker fare in Singapore and it’s […]
