Finally finish my school assignment! Yeah! after 2 weeks of late nites, I am finally happy with the final results. I've given it my best. Have not work so hard for so long..gee, i think since school days. . rushing for exams etc. The difference now is this is what I enjoyed doing. I know, few of you have asked, Why? Why this sudden interest in FengShui? Well, at first, it was more like an enhancement to what I am doing.. I mean, when clients asked about what color or what design, it will be really cool to add on some fengshui tips. But the last 3 months had given me a very different view. To a non believer, Fengshui is absolute rubbish. But to a believer, it is the gospel. To me, it is a art of living. An art to blend into the environment, to enhance your life, to encourage positive thinking. It is a positive approach to life. And with all that, how can it be bad? Fengshui practice has been around since ancient time and even though originates from the East, has now gain

A Very Cultural Sunday

Kampong Glam, Arab street, Haji Lane...very interesting little nooks that I've only recently come to discover. Of all I am most familar with Arab Street cos every now and then I will go there to look at silk for my clients. But that's it. Just Bobby Fabrics and maybe a few other fabric shops there. Couple of weeks back, because of Dom's party, we went to No. 1 Costumes Costume (no error, that's their name, with costume twice) to deck ourselves up with 70s disco outfits. After that we went to Blue Jazz. Love the satays there.. and of course the beer too. Today's visit is entirely different. Very cultural. Bez needs to do an article for the fair over at the Malay Heritage Centre. As usual, this mummy offered to be driver and here we are on a Sunday morning, dragged ourselves out of bed and headed off to Kampong Glam ;-) Silat performance Bez doing his job... looks like a journalist? REmember these chocolates? Wes is very fascinated by this old typewriter and want

Bez's first shaving kit

Bez's first shaving kit and he bought it himself. Sigh, very soon it will be Wes's turn. My little boys are really growing up. I think all moms are alike. Always getting gaga over their children's first. No blogs eighteen years ago, otherwise i will probably flood the site with all my boys first..lolz.

Fajitas Dinner

Image
Sixteen years in Texas and finally now back in Singapore after 10 years, I finally attempted to make this signature dish. Been back for 10 years and still cannot find any restaurant that can come close to the real TexMex Fajitas. Started marinading the flank steak right after noon. Was not able to get hold of the regular Texas lime; so used calamansi & lemon instead. Out of ziploc bag so used the bowl instead. Would be better in the ziploc cos then the flavor will be completely sealed in. But anyhow, it still turned out awesome. Marinade with onions, cilantros, bell pepper, salt & cumin. Finally ready for grill after chilling in marinade for about 6 hours Did the whole enchiladas...man have not used this expression for a while! Guess for this, it is most befitting. Did guacamole, pico de gallo and Mexican rice. All from scratch. Rice is cooked with fresh tomatoes, pureed with onions. Was not able to get any avocados cos those that Daisy bought for me was not ripe yet..

Sunday morning without maid

Image
Still snoozing, late morning, more like noon on a lazy Sunday. Wes up and about, preparing pancakes since the maid is away at church. Breakfast prepared by Dear Wesley while Bez was still snoozing.. Slowly, he made his way to the table...still at a daze.. Contemplating on pancakes or beddar cheddar first.... How about "Thank you Wesley"? LOLz they love each other..n I love them both ;-)

Yeah it works again! ! The past weeks had been terrible. I could not upload any photos to my blog. Pictures say a thousand words. Never a great writer, i depends on my fotos to enhance my blog. So needless to say, I had been on ends trying to find a solution to solve this problem. NOt that I am any good in solving it too.. hahahaa. . even Wesley is dumbfounded. But since I wasn't the only one not being able to do so, its definitely not my blonde moment. So i just sat back n wait for Blogger to solve the problem. Anyway, in the meantime we have Facebook. Thank you Facebook! kept me sane ;p Just goes to say, sometime we really need to sit back and relax... let's nature takes it own course. So what've been happening the past weeks? Lots and lots....the infamous Disco Drag/Divas Party in celebration of Dom's birthday; and of course before that my DIY's Tie Dye & Add your own Blings Blings project. Fotos are already in facebook so not doing repetition here. Bu
