Alice In Wonderland

We just came back from movie "Alice In Wonderland", not bad. I quite like the Red Queen especially her big round head and her heart shape lips.... ha ha ha, cute! Audrey enjoyed watching the movie, at least she never request for either tidbits, food, sweet, drink, etc during the show. She will demand all sort of food when she doesn't like certain movie, just to pass her time in cinema. She only requested a small piece of cake right after the show started, perhaps she was hungry.

Next coming up will be Toy's Story 3, but need to wait a bit longer. It will be released in June 2010.

How To Keep Your Valuable Things

How do you keep your valuable things at home, for instance your gold jewelry, diamond ring, cash, antique watches, etc? Here are some tips that I wish to share with you. If you have a better one, do let us know. Believe it or not, thieves are smarter than anyone of us. Only those stupid thieves will get caught and jailed.

Or do you prefer to use safety box? How safe can a safety box be? My former company safety box was no longer safe when it was burglarized, all the foreign currency notes gone.

I think the safer way of avoiding lost is don't keep too much of valuable things at home, am I right?

Do You Read Magazine?

I like to read magazine especially those feminine magazine so much. I don't mind reading past month magazine as long as it's new to me which I'm yet to read. My only request is that the magazine must in good condition.

I'm not sure whether you have such feeling like me. After reading those feminine magazine it does encourage me to love my body, to care about my skin, to treat my hair even better, to enjoy life and many more. I'm not only being revealed with the new fashion design, latest trend of handbag, new launch of skin product, customer review or feedback of current beauty product, more importantly I will also get their beauty advice and tips which I think its all time useful.

I truly enjoy the moment of reading a magazine without any disturb or interruption. Em.... if it comes with a cup of iced blended mocha, it makes my day perfect!

2nd International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta

It was our first time to join the crowd at International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta at Putrajaya on 20 March 10. We were supposed to meet up SIL and BIL there but due to the poor networking and too many people over there, we didn't catch up each other.

We thought we were late as we only reached there around 7.30pm, but we find it was the best timing as they were just setting up and bringing up balloon by balloon. Amazing view especially when they shoot the fire to keep the balloon floating. At 9.00pm, there was grand firework and we clapped our hand of the excellent played.

They were putting up another balloon.


And finally....... I like this "lion" hot air balloon from France, cute!


Giant orange balloon, from Belgium!


This was my favorite hot air balloon for 2010, from Netherlands.


Another cutie bird balloon.

Attractive and colorful balloons.

Plaster Moulding & Painting

I bought this last weekend from Popular Bookstore. Since I have so much of free time staying home with Audrey after her school, I plan some activities for her and myself to pass our time meaningfully. This set of painting kit contained 6 assorted designs of plaster mould, plaster powder, magnet, pins, glitter, 5 colours of paint & 1 paint brush.

First we have to make the mould using the plaster powder. Leave it for at least 30 mins to dry it up before start coloring it. Audrey enjoyed doing it as much as mummy did.




Jeng Jeng Jeng.... these are our final pieces of plaster painting. Which is nicer? Audrey did 3 plasters painting while one of them was done by me..... he he, can guess?

We celebrated this last month

(Back back back ..... dated post)

Pai seh, I missed this out last month. I'm a pure Hokkien therefore on the eve of the 8th day of CNY, we will celebrate 'Pai Tien Kong'. It is the biggest event and a very important celebration for us during CNY. No doubt hubby is not a Hokkien but we do celebrate this special day each year at my mum house. We just pray for a better year for us each time.

This year was rather special as my brother has invited 2 lions dance to perform on that night, right after prayer ceremony. We were so excited waiting for that as all of us are lion dance's fans. Both my girls like to watch lion dance even though both of them feel frightened of it. They watched with both hand closing their ears.


Shannen & Audrey playing the firecrackers happily. 2 full tables of foods for prayer. All prepared by mum except the 'roasted pig'.



Before the dance started, my girls were brave enough to stand beside the lion head for photo.



The whole dance show took more than 30 minutes. Excellent dance!

After the prayer, as usual we will gather to enjoy the fresh roasted pig.... it's really yummy, the meat still warm and juicy! We reached home around 2am and both the girls already slept soundly inside the car. They were too tired. This was how we celebrated our/Hokkien new year 2010.

Our All Time Favorite Lunch

Since I'm not satisfied with the spaghetti that we had last weekend, I decided to cook it myself for today lunch. I used Campbell's Alfredo Portobello, fettuccine, broccoli, mushrooms, carrots, prawns, whipping scream, garlic & onion to cook my version of spaghetti. It was a thumb's up! Em.... my stomach is full now.





This is our simple yet delicious lunch for today!



Luckily both my girls and hubby also like to eat spaghetti.
