Thanks Crocs for the tickets, I think I wld like to bring my girls to next year’s Chingay Parade … … if got free tickets, PLS GIMME, GIMME, GIMME!!!

After ’siam’ for a year, finally ‘caved in’ … … bcos our last excuse ‘broke’ when Lil’ Fish fmy went to Wild Wild Wet. Well, we used to tell GG that she was not tall enough, it wld be a waste of $$$ if she cld not play some rides/attractions.

Finally, we went there on the 4th day of CNY … bcos it was a weekday, it was not crowded at all. Each of us grabbed a ‘donut’ and floated on the ‘Shiok River’ … … but i felt not ’shiok’ at all … … Jurong East’s lazy river is better. Then we went for ‘Ular-lah’ twice … … after the 2nd time, I felt giddy and cldn’t continue liao, so I just lazed around while the three went to explore other attractions.

They played till the park closed, and had enjoyed themselves so much that they were asking to go back there next time.

Bot a big container of Kueh Bolu fr NTUC, and found that it didn’t taste gd, so I decided to DIY. As usual, went to research for a recipe and after comparing a few, the recipes were more or less the same and looked vy simple to do.

Engrg habits die hard … … i decided to experiment with different flour and in the end, I got samples A, B, C, D & E. After all the voting, top flour won the contest :D . It was really easy to make Kueh Bolu but the hard work came fr washing the little moulds, which took me a lot of energy and sweat to scrub the residues off :( . I was kinda put off by the washing … …

Started production just 3d b4 CNY … … after baking some original ones, my itchy hands wanna made some coconut and chocolate ones, so there I went, experimenting again :) . Luckily both turned up well.

Shopped at OG, shopped at BHG, shopped at Raffles City … … couldn’t find shoes for ALY at the kids dept. Those that she wanted didn’t have her size. Bo bian liao, so i brought her to Robinsons’ ladies shoes dept. After searching high and low, testing out one after another, finally we found 2 pairs of ballerina shoes.

Wow! She got such big feet that even I could fit into her new shoes … … hmmmmm, we can share shoes now. =)

老二的生日又要到了 。。。 。。。

几个礼拜前她已给我‘警告’,不准我买芋头蛋糕。哈哈哈 。。。 。。。 因为去年我买了我喜欢吃的芋头蛋糕,而她偏偏不喜欢芋头。想不到她对此事‘耿耿于怀’ 。。。 。。。

接下来,她说她要榴莲蛋糕 。。。 。。。 我提议去Carrefour买个普通的蛋糕和榴莲,自己在家‘调配’榴莲蛋糕,这样又省钱又好吃。可是她不要 。。。 该不是对我的‘技术’没信心吧???

昨晚,她又来了。问我有没有订她的榴莲蛋糕 。。。 “没有。” 。。。 我问她好不好我们买班兰蛋糕(her favourite cake),她说OK!!! 这时,姐姐抗议了,说她不喜欢班兰蛋糕。那我说我买一片就好 。。。 妹妹切了就有两片,一片妹妹吃,一片爸爸吃(我吃了很难消化,所以尽量少吃)。姐姐嘟着嘴,生气了。妹妹却开心笑了。

待续 。。。 。。。

**********
耍她耍到最后一分钟 。。。 。。。 拿了蛋糕,打了个电话给她。

“喂妹妹,班兰蛋糕卖完了,只剩牛油蛋糕可以吗?”
“Huh 。。。 。。。 我不要牛油蛋糕。” “有没有芒果的?”
“没有。 芒果的要订。”
“那就订咯。”
“要在几天前订,现在没有,只剩牛油蛋糕了。”
“ok lah,ok lah。”

GG’s 1st CCA day … … Track & Field.

Picked her up after CCA. As usual, I asked her how was it.

GG: “My tcher said my hair vy nice.” (smiling)
Me: “Huh? Why did yr tcher say tt?”
GG: * shrug *

Weird comment fr a tcher … … … …

*****
Then she talked abt what they did … …

GG: “The tcher told us to sprint, but I dunno what he meant.” (she was jumping up and down while walking)
Me: “Sprint is to run fast fast … … ” (she was still jumping, then i realised what she meant) “not asking you to jump like Tigger.”
GG: (smiling to herself) “No lah, I didn’t, I just ran.”

Catch it??? She thot ’sprint’ = ’spring’ (a coil).

Tis yr, P5 was tasked to be P1’s buddy … … ie to orientate & help those new P1 students during their 1st 3 days in sch. ALY’s buddy was a cute little girl, Annette.

One of the recesses, ALY’s fren, Cass, saw her buddy left some biscuits. She asked her buddy if she could have some, her buddy nodded and guess what … … both Cass & ALY finished the biscuits. OMG! What greedy Seniors!

I think the buddy system was a good awareness training for ALY.

Was browsing my blog, and suddenly thot of past Jan … … it was interesting to read my own history. :D
