Big Make Over

January, February, Mac .......... comes August ! Gee, time sure flies in a flash !

Yes, I am talking about my lil girl's concert. I had to apply full dark stage make-up for her as requested by d teachers. Hence, I bought her her very own make-up brushes. I didn't want her to use mine, did not want her to develop any zits at such a young age! Best to avoid sharing make-up brushes, eyeliners, & mascara too. Yes, these are d most infectious!

I had so much fun applying make-up on my baby! She would just stay put & not move an inch! Oohhh, my lil dolly!  Most of d teachers were amazed by her make-over & d falsie 'Eye lashes' she had on.

These are d Make-up Essentials -

 Yeap..all for Caitlyn! I Nouvi Eyeshadows too!

 Excuse me .. Applying make-up in d bathroom at 6.45am. White natural light needed! Full dress rehearsal day!

 My lil Dolly

 Actual concert day! Own gown. Love her Make-up?

Stage Make-up. That's her very last Dance Step. My baby!!

Dining d Traditional Way

Hahaha, U may be tickled by my Title there aye?

Oh well, once in a while I do like to set d table d traditional way with chopsticks & rice bowls. It does bring out d 'spark' during meal time.  'Aiya, not so boring mar' :)  Usually we will just get comfy with forks & spoons.

For dinner, I cooked 2 simple main dishes - Remember - Traditional Dining - *WinK*

- Black sauce pork with 2 hard boiled eggs
- French beans with cherry tomatoes
- Sai yong choy soup

D olden days 'hiong har' kampung dishes.
Black sauce pork is my Hubs all time favourite. My method, after frying I will transfer to slow cooker so d pork will soften within hours. Yummmmmmy! I am in fact salivating now! Plus, d egg just gives it d right touch!

Enjoy your meals with your loved ones! Bon appetit!

  Hubs Fav' Dish -  Black sauce pork - Yummy !



Love of Heels

During my working days with d 'Advertising & Grooming' Company, I used to wear 4-5 inches stilletoes daily to work. I can even run with them! Whatever colour & designs, u name it I've worn it! I used to match with my handbags, aaaaahhhh...my wardrobe was filled with tons of handbags too! Those were d days. Partly, it was also my company's rules & regulations to look good 24/7.

This is my latest 5 inches - Aint it Gorgeous?? Simply could not resist when I first saw them! Awww!

* I did'nt have crappy toes from wearing stilletoes. I still have good looking toes & not tortured :) * U know what people usually say about wearing killer heels, right? It all depends......;p

 Do u like this look? I wore this attire to my lil girls concert.

Its 5 inches. My latest Love ! Wink*



Hello Kitty Pt 2

Do u remember I had written a Blog about Hello Kitty sometime back?

My blog followers would have known that my 'Princess' has a soft spot for Hello Kitty.

My favourite cousin sisters living abroad, have just come back for 'Visit Msia' holiday trip =D Both knew very much that my 'Princess' adores Hello Kitty heaps!

My 'Princess' was delighted with d Hello Kitty gifts & she went to bed with it..well, other than getting her 'My Little Ponies' to bed too! Hehe

Playing dress ups with Hello Kitty rice cooker set!

Aint it a huge box? My cous' Sista hand carried it back!

Aint it 'Peeeeetiiii'? One of her Fav' dresses. How I wish they had it in my saiz. I would'nt mind playing mix & match Hello Kitty with my 'Princess' =D

Western or Chinese Doc ?

Cough, cough, pls go away :( U r bugging my lil princess' throat, sleep & daily routine. She would like to have her yummy Strawberry Ice creams again. She has not been tasting it for 6 weeks!

Her regular cough medicine does not work, gone for follow-up checks - not asthmatic or anything serious. Thank god. PD said - If this time d meds does not work, she has to be on Antibiotics.

Therefore, we chose to consult a Chinese 'Sin Seh' to see if there are better options before she's on Antibiotics. She has consulted him before for 'Heat Rash'. Yes, by boiling her d 'Chinese Herbal Medicine' to my surprise, it does wonders! She has better appetite too!

By listening to her heartbeat, 'Sin Seh' was not too happy. He shook his head & said

- She has a lot of wind. Not good.....
- Her Lungs have weakened. Shook his head....
- Avoid consuming chicken & eggs for 2 weeks....
- She seems to be quite dehydrated. Consume more water....
- Boil her more sweet soups....

 'Sin Seh' suggested she takes Cordyceps for 3 days. Ok, Cordyceps......hmmmmmmm.......must be pretty expensive aye? He went ahead to pack 3 packets of Cordyceps with mixture of --

- Tiger's Milk
- Chinese Barley
- Longan
- Cordyceps

Stew for 3 hours. Best she consumes d Chinese herbs too. Uhhhh....I highly doubt so. She may end up puking d entire drink! So, I chow down d herbs. Hehhe...I'm also recovering from my cough. So it is good for me too huh?

Taste - Bitter sweet. She did not quite like it.  No choice Honey! Just 3 days, once you're cured - U can have your yummy ice creams again.

Best part is ------ It cost us RM 450.00. Its OK, anything for our kids health.

I saw d price in d Cordyceps bottle - 3.5 Kg for RM 5,800.00 ! Wow !

Results ---------------------

She is able to sleep well through d nite, No more chesty coughs during d day, infact -- I hardly hear her cough now. :)



The Body Shop

When was d last time u shopped in the Body Shop? I remembered several years ago 'The Body Shop' was an in thing / trend to shop in. I have not been shopping in 'Body Shop' for sometime now.

We were browsing around & Hubs decided - Why not splash on something? Since we have not bought 'Body Shop' items for a decade. Oooooo.....my sweet Hubs....

Hubs wanted a perfume for his busy Biz' travelling kit. So, I chose an EDT scent for my sweetie Hubs. I prefer EDP but not many Men perfume ranges are EDP. Oh, he loves he's Dior alot too! By the way, this is out of the topic - Does your Hubs choose his own perfume scent & clothes? My Hubs always leaves it to me. He always says 'It's my department, moreover I have good taste' ....hehehe.

Hubs said I should pick something for myself..go ahead. Ok, I chose something New in the store! EDP perfume! It smells refreshing! Do u remember d scent called Escape? Yeap, something similliar but more flowery. Ok, so I have something new sitting on my dressing table :) Anyway, my Hubs smells me most of d time! hahaha!

After selecting these 2 items, we found out there was a promotion going on. Any 3 items, 10% off + RM20 voucher.

Hubs says - Choose another item. Ok, I went scratching my head thinking & looking what else I would need. Browsing through Shower gel, bar soap, make-up.....I chose lip gloss! That's what I need as mine was finishing.

Upon paying, we redeemed d RM20 voucher & gotten ourselves Bath Gel! On top of that, I got myself a membership card. On my next Birthday, I am entitled to 25% off any item! Plus, for purchases above RM200 I am entitled to RM20 voucher! Aint it a great deal to grab?!

Little Black Dress - My lil Fashionista -

One of d days, we were shopping nearby & my Girl pointed outo a lil Black Dress. Mommy, mommy look! I like this, its so pretty & it has round crystals on it! She took d dress around d boutique, literally dancing & imagining that she's wearing d lil Black Dress. She even brought it to show her Grandma. But, my answer was 'No, you have enough dresses already. Put it back please.' So she did and was a lil disappointed but only for a short period of time.

Guess what? My lil Fashionista ..........

Days later....like 6 days later...! She came to me with a lil sweet voice of hers - Mommy, I really liked that Black & White dress with d crystals on it. Can you buy it for me, please? I was so surprised! I immediately knew which dress she was describing. Oh my, I guess as much that she must have had sleepless nights thinking of d beautiful dress. She did'nt mention anything about d dress after we left d mall.

I shared it with my Hubs that same day after she told me how she liked d dress very much. Hubs brought her to d mall & purchased it! Wow, she was so HAPPY, Skipped, Hopped, Hugged, Kissed her beloved PaPa .. & nothing could express that very special 'Angelic' Face of hers. It was indeed 'Priceless' & I wish I could just rewind back that special moment & freeze it.

Not forgetting my lil Boy, he said - Jie Jie, U look like a Princess :)

                                      It's gonna be long for now. I chose slightly bigger size.
