Hello again internet! As usual I haven't been blogging since....maybe last January after my Vietnam's post . I'm lying if I say I don't have time or I was busy. Yes, my life is busy enough even though I don't work in "the real working place" like most of you do. But, trust me, running [...]
As you've probably known from my IG stories and feeds that my two monkeys and I went to Vietnam for this summer holidays. It was just for a short period, last get away before school starts. As this was our first time to Vietnam sans le hubby, we chose Saigon and the south area of [...]
How are you people? How was your week end? It''s been a beautiful summer weather here in Perth. Average temperature is just below 30 celcius, until yesterday it reached 38C OMG...hot...hot...hot! But I think it will go down to around 30s, which is still bearable for my liking. Good time for some beach actions, I [...]
The other day DH and my boys and friends caught some crabs. So, chilli crab on the menu for dinner.

It's been a few months since my last post on this blog. And now it's already December and only less than a week before Christmas! My gosh this year is gone so fast, I can't believe it! Well, at the moment, in the middle of state swimming championship, I tried to sit back and take [...]
I used to think that gardening or plants are just for old people. I mean, when you are 60 and above, then it's the kind of thing you would do to kill time. I often admired my late mother in law's garden and amused with all her colourful petunias. I always love pretty garden though, [...]
I haven't blogged any recipe posts for such a long time! Pardon moi! I had lots of fresh blueberries (they are in season at the moment) so yesterday I decided to make this blueberry pie bars. It's so easy and quick, with no mixer or rolling pin needed. If you know me well enough, I [...]

Every little things that don't matter (and not important I suppose for people who have real life) just seems don't work well with me. And that drives me mad....and frustrated. I can't really tell you what it is [...]
