Catridge Finder Makes Things Easy !

Dearie Suki recently bought 2 printers at home. One is for general use, in another words is used by me to print my recipes, Le-Ann's colouring sheet and others. Where else, another unit of printer is a more high tech one and used by him to print his customers' creatives artwork. The colour catridge for his printer run out quite fast because the high amount of things he printed. Once run out, he got to drive all the way to look for computer shops to get his cartridge and it is quite a hassle to do that if that shop didn't have the catridge he want.


Until one fine day, we found Cartridge Finder and things get easy with it because they will help us to locate where to get the catridge and which catridge to use for his printer. With this, it really saves up my Dearie Suki time.

No More Surprises

Yesterday night, supposed to go back earlier to cook Sambal Petai for Dearie Suki but I worked till 7.30 pm in the office and reached home almost 8.15 pm. Called Dearie Suki and telling him I am not cooking tonight and let's have Pan Mee at Bkt Sri Serdang.

Once reached home, the kids is making so much noises in the kitchen. Walked into the kitchen and both of them playing masak-masak in the kitchen. Ask both of them, 'Where is Daddy?' and little Le-Ann pointing her finger out to the wet kitchen and answered me ' Daddy, cooking rice'. Huh.... ????

Alamak... instead of me giving him the surprise, and now is the other way round. He gave me the surprise by cooking the Sambal Petai for dinner. I think he must be searching through the fridge and saw the petai. Bravo *clap, clap*. Not too bad atleast he can cook his favourite dish but I found that it is a bit oily.


Apart from Sambal Petai, he also fried 2 eggs for dinner and I love his fried egg so much because the yolk is half cooked. Wah, best!

I am glad that he cooked the dinner yesterday night but then look at the mess in the wet kitchen. Walaueh, he used 2 pans to cook 2 different dishes. Wah, some more used so much oil to fried the ikan bilis and potato. Worst still the oil spilt all around and end up I got to wash the floor in the wet kitchen.

T.E.R.M.I.T.E.S

Last Friday, me and both the kids were at Aunty AC's house and she is busy clearing her cupboard. I asked her why ?

Oh no, her whole cupboard is eaten up by termite. I got so worried that night and telling Dearie Suki that our house is built under a rubber tree plantation's land and what I heard from those pest control staffs, houses built under this type of land will easily get termites. Looking at how Aunty AC cleaned her cupboard, it is really scarey when you see so many millions and zillions of them in it. I wouldn't want this to happen to my house. Better do something now rather than whole house is attack by termite.

Little Picasso At Home

Few weeks back, when we were at Ah Mah's house, little girl saw Faye Ah Yi did some drawing using water colour paint and she insisted she also want to draw. End up Faye gave her a piece of blank paper and let her draw with the brush.

I think she is enjoying it and now everyday at home she will colour her colouring book using colour pencils. Dearie Suki saw this picture and he said he will go to IKEA and get the drawing board with easel for her to draw. I think it is a good idea too, so both of them will not scribble or draw anything on the wall. So far this has yet to happen so better get something for them before it is too late.

Le-Ann drawing in Faye's room


Tadaa... Le-Ann's Masterpiece. Not to bad ya but I can't get what she draw.

Hotel Reservations




I loves to travel and it is one of my interest since I am young. Mom will bring both me and my sister travel to places like Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong and China. My dream is to travel to all the European countries which I had visited 5 countries in Europe namely London, Paris, Belgium, Amsterdam and Germany and looking forward to visit the rest of the countries. Booking the tour and the hotel arrangement through the travelling agency could be quite an expensive one and yet there is not much flexibility on our side.

During my last business trip to Germany, I had actually extended my trip for few days and I had taken this oppurtunities to visit 2 countries in Europe. Before I did my hotel and my tour booking, I searched through the internet and came across this website Hotel Reservations .

I could say this is a useful link because you can find a whole list of hotels or hostels suited to your budget. Apart from this you can even plan and booked your vacation packages through Hotel Reservations and believe me or not you can actually get a cheaper rate and save up as much as 70% discount on the booking as compared to the normal rates. This useful link also offer car rental and flight booking at a cheaper rate too.


My next coming trip is to plan a short holiday of 4 days 3 night with my Dearie Suki and to get away from the busy working stress in the city. We've been planning this since last two week and finally we decided we will go to Bangkok and off course I was given a task from him that I will be his tour leader to make all the arrangment.



I finally make a reservation with the Asia Hotel in Bangkok at an attractive rates and furthermore I can even get a rebate of USD20 for a 3 nights booking. The rebate offered by them is up to USD100 for a maximum 12 nights booking. Wow, isn't this interesting to plan your own travelling and yet you get so many freebies and discounts. Ooh, I can't wait for December to come as we are going for our 2nd honeymoon again.

HERITASIA On X'Mas Promotion

HERITASIA is on X'Mas promotion and now they got a new booth in Bangsar Village. His girlfriend is so kind to forward me the email blast about his new stall. I got to know this 'Si Tau Chai' when I went to get some fashion accessories from his booth at The Curve, Saturday flea market and now we are friends.

Glad to know that he is having another stall in Bangsar and it would be nearer for me to go to Bangsar rather than the Curve. Spoken to him few months back that maybe both of us could work out something and sell his fashion accessories on-line or through my blog. But till today I've yet to get back to him cos I am just too busy with work and with my 2 kids after my maid left. So sorry about that if he come across my blog. I just need to get things going cos I hate this damn bloody place ( you know which place I am referring to right! )

So for those who wish to get something for your loved ones for the coming X'mas, pay a visit to his stall. I am sure there are lots of nice girly stuffs to choose from and also at AFFORDABLE PRICE! .




Garage Flooring

Ever since we shifted into our new house, we did not do any renovation to our wet kitchen and it has been 5 years we are staying in our 1st house. I was telling Dearie Suki, since Chinese New Year is also round the corner, we need to do something to it and I want to have a new look for my wet kitchen flooring and I would prefer it to be in colourful tiles that match the wall colour.

With garage flooring , you will be able to find all types of tiles with different colour choice and design to choose from. Ohhh, I can't wait to choose mine. Catalogue also available for FREE upon request.

I Miss The Green Green Vegetables

I was at the SS13 SJ night market tonight to get some green vegs. Ever since, Black Dot went back to Indonesia I hardly get green vegs to cook at home. Well I could say I cook green vegs about 3 times a week unlike last time everyday there will be one green vegs on the dining table. If I can't finish the green vegs, Black Dot will sapu habis.


Dearie Suki is kind of weird. He doesn't eat green vegs except for the green stinko beans.... PETAI. For months I have not cook any Petai dish for him and today I bought one big packet of petai from the night market for RM10. I think the big packet can divide it and cook 3 times. Hihihi... not going to tell him what I cook for dinner tomorrow and I am going to give him a surprise!


Mom was asking me, if he doesn't take green vegs, where is he going to get all the nutrients. Ah... ha... Mom is wrong. Dearie Suki loves fruits and he is actually substituting the green vegs with fruits. Whenever we go to the night markets or supermarkets he will get loads of different kind of fruits back. Today, my fridge is loaded with fruits... mandarin oranges, mango, grapes, persimmons, and banana.


I miss all the green vegetables I cook last time. Going to start cooking green vegetables very soon. Since he don't eat I eat la, hihihi a good way to on diet!

Luncheon Meat and Rice For Kids

Last Saturday afternoon, I am so lazy to think what to cook for lunch. After all, my brain is not functioning and I got such a bad headache maybe because lack of sleep. I was telling Dearie Suki, lets have canned food for lunch. I know this is not a good choice for the kids meal but once in a while I think it should be alright.

Opened up a can of Luncheon Meat and cut into thin pieces and fried till golden brown. To make the kids lunch much more interesting, I cut the fried luncheon meat with a tulip and bear cookier cutter. Arranged it on top of their rice and sprinkle some Chicken Furikakae Seasoning on top of it.

This is Le-Ann's lunch set. Arranged the tulip cut out as eyes and mouth and the bear as nose. Also have some seedless grapes and a honey mandarin orange for their dessert. I ask little girl, what it this? And she answered me 'FACE' lor mommy.

For little Ee-Thern, used the tulip cut out as face and the tulip as ears. Some seedless grapes and a honey mandarin orange for him. When I asked Ee-Thern, what is this? He answered me, mommy 'MICKEY MOUSE'. Is this looks like MICKEY MOUSE? It looks more like a REINDEER to me. Anyway this is his imagination.

Both of them 'sapu habis' the rice and the luncheon meat. After having their lunch, I am too tired and took a afternoon nap with both of them for about 3 hours.
