I look at him deeply in the eyes, give him my most gentle smile and said, "

When you can't just buy it from the hawker centre like how we used to do it, we just have to cook it ourselves :P I'm sure alot of us who are away from home must share my cravings for those comfort food once a while, isnt it? ;)So what do I crave again?.......Something white,...

The other day "The One" and I was walking along and saw something like this...ARGHHHHHH..how can the dog owners let their dogs (or cats or whatever pets) drink the water from the public water fountain that we human used to drink water too!

Now that Falls have arrived and the weather has turned chilly, I simply dislike the thought of going out shopping. What better way to shop than online in the comfort of home! With a cup of hot chocolate, typed in ncnatural.com, I’m on my way to shopping! Not having to go out in the cold, plus there are discount coupons for the merchandises on the website, wow, how good can that get! The merchants

Going to University and getting that degree is one big step towards getting that dream job that I have been hoping for. When the time comes for me to select one ideal school, I will hope to look for a school that can offer me the best in terms of student loans, programs, flexibility and many other factors that I will need to consider. How can I go about looking for one without having to go into

Sometime back, "The One" and I went for a burger at a fast food outlet. After getting our order, we sat down to enjoy our crispy burger, when we took a bite..arhhh..the meat was cool.

When you are far away from home and long to hear the voices of your loved ones, making long distance overseas calls can sometimes cost a bomb!

Today's the first day of school for the kids after the long 2 months of summer break. It also marks the end of the summer , autumn arriving meaning leaves will fall and soon winter will come.

I love going on holidays! Whenever I start to plan the trip, one of my best resources will be the internet. From booking tickets, reserving hotels room, renting cars to sight seeing, the internet is my library of information. I definitely love a website that I can browse everything all on one website.Recently, I came across the website of Hotel Reservations which does just that. Hotel

Something beautiful to share... Italian artist Guido Daniele who lives and works in Milan, was hired by an advertising agency to create body painting of animals.

It was a weekend and as usual, the shopping mall was crowded. I had to go to the washroom and when I walked in, there was a long queue. When it was my turn, I went in and did whatever I need to quickly and flushed but opps...The flush wasn't working! I tried for a few more times and still it didn't flush. Remembering there is still a long line of queue outside, I had to go out, I can't stay in

Vaughan Mills consists of a number of branded names outlets, Guess, Aldo, CK, Fairweather etc (some are supposedly the factory outlet, however prices are not that much cheaper compared to the usual

I love potatoes..mashed potato, potato salad, baked potato etc etc..yummyumm..and I love jap food too. So naturally, I like potato croquette :PAlthough I like croquette, but I don't like deep frying; so after googling around for croquette recipes, I found my baked version of potato croquette. Add and minus ingredients here and there, I came up with my version of Baked Curry Seafood Potato

You don't need anyone else to make you happy.And though you see yourself as a loner, people are drawn to you.Deep and sensitive, you tend to impress others with your insights.You also tend to be psychic - so listen to that

Today is the birthday of a close girlfriend, Pearline. Happi Hatchday Gal! :) Pearline and I knew each other back in school days and since then we have come quite a long way. (I'm being very careful not to divulge your age hehehe) We had our share of fights (very seldom), tears and happiness; and she is one whom I travel with most. Alot of wonderful memories were formed during our travelling.Just

I came across this blog, it is actually from a blogger, LP, who was commenting in Uncle Lee's blog and from her blog, I went to this Lao Zha Bor's blog.She's a 68 years old artiste with Mediacorp in Singapore and I'm sure most people in Singapore will recognize her. From her comment box, she is who I think, in alot of the younger Singaporean generation's eyes, "A real lao zha bor who rocks, who

Was reading an article on "The Keys to Happiness, and Why We Don't Use Them"By Robin Lloyd, Special to LiveScienceFrom the article I picked up some points:"Happiness is 50 percent genetic, other half of the challenge depends largely on determination.""Happiness does not come via prescription drugs, Nor will money or prosperity buy happiness for many of us."So I wonder, how does one try to get

"The One" and I hit the highway 401 East, from Toronto with a population of over 2 million, to Durham with a population of 94,000..Pickering Market here we come! Pickering market is open only on the weekend, Sat and Sun, from 9am-5pm. It is divided into 3 section, "Antique market", "Flea Market" and "Farmer's Market"..Since it was mid afternoon when we were there, "The One" and I headed straight

When it gets real hot, it felt as if I'm in a desert, hot and dry..arghhh..so..."The One" and I went to buy a fan. :) We came home happily assembling the fan and while doing this, it suddenly brought back memories of my ah gong (grandpa aka daddy's daddy)..When I was little, I remembered ah gong as a quiet man, always la kopi (stirring and drinking coffee) and puff puff away on his cigarettes;

Guess what I saw today?? This afternoon, when "The One" and I went out, just beside the letter box wall, there is a notice from mgmt that says...If You Cannot Be Bothered And Throw A Pail Of Water Down Your Balcony, Do Not Be Surprised If Your Neighbour Turn Up At Your DoorStep With A Pail Of Water And Mop And Ask You To Mop Their Balcony!

If you have followed my blog, you will hv known the story of Shane Bernier.Although his wish to get into the Guinness book of World record for the most number of birthday card received, he didnt make it. He received cards from all over the world and this morning when the news interviewed the mother and Shane, we got to know that that cateogry was scrapped..

I was doing some cooking when suddenly I heard some noise coming from upstairs, my neighbours moving or doing something on the balcony..(now don't start thinking of any thing huh..hahah)Usually I won't really care until I heard a glass breaking sound..I walked near to the balcony and heard sweeping sound from above, all of a sudden, cigarettes butts and a piece of glass (green-like similar to

Do you ever wonder how some people can pile their food to the tops while there are others in queue waiting to get that dish at buffets?"The One" and I went to an Asian lunch buffet and was in the queue to get some steam fish. A Mother and her daughter were infront of me, speaking in Chinese, the mother told her daughter "get the fish, must take at least half"..When I heard what she told her gal,

"The One" and I went to do volunteer work..yup volunteering to do some planting at the Toronto island sand dune. We reckon since its his off day, we might as well take the time off to do some good, volunteer and at the same time 'earn' a free ferry trip to the island :)There were about 15 of us and guess what? Only "The One" and I with another pair of young couple are asian..The rest, are whites

Few weeks back, "The One" and I were enjoying the cool Spring weather, having our breakfast on our balcony; enjoying the nice warmth of the sun and chirping of the birds..and Yesterday??I was rolling up my sleeves, rolling up my pants, fanning myself crazy during the day!It was official, Yesterday temp of 31oC broke the record high set in 1991 of 30.5oC in Ontario.

21st May was Queen Victoria Day, it was a holiday and "The One" was off from work. We decided to go out for a night out to watch some firework at the "Ashbridge bay park" near the lake where there will be fireworks...Fireworks will start at 9.45pm so we decided to go out a little earlier, have dinner before going. When we reached the park, around 8pm, my god! The park was packed with people. Some

Compared with any method of cooking, I love baking..Not cakes though as baking a cake really means you hv to follow the recipe to a "T", too little, too much and your cake will 'go flat'. What I mean by baking is say..'baking fish, chicken, pork.." sorta stuffs. Where a little too much of these or that wont make your food a total diaster (at least thats what I hope) hehe..Plus the fact that

I love broccoli and esp since its one of those vegs that has precious anti cancer properties. How do you prepare your broccoli? Do you boil your broccoli?? if you do, PLEASE DON'T!As you guys know, broccoli are VERY hard, so I tend to boil it for like 5-10 mins to make it soft. After reading this, its no more boiling, the next time I'm making my broccoli? Steaming it. As for those broccoli that I

I felt good today because "The One" and I did something good. Remember the little boy, Shane who has cancer that I blogged about some time back, his birthday wish this year is to get 350 million birthday cards before May 30th (his birthday) to break the world record for the most number of birthday cards received? We went to get him a birthday card and posted it to him. It feels good if we are

His only son, who used to help him, was in prison.The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.Dear Son,I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up gardenplot.
