The dream food maker all parents need!!!


Cooking for your infant or toddler or even an elderly parent can be a lot of hassle and stress. You need to defrost that chicken or fish, steam or boil the food, then you need to chop them up, mash them, blend them, etc...add that to your already hectic day especially if you are a working mom and it is just so stressful....

However, a dream appliance has been invented that can just do all that for you!!! Isn't that like heaven sent?? I know it definitely seem that way for me... You can now just make porridge, purees, pesto, mash potato, etc,etc all in just a few steps... no sweat at all, and you do not need that many pots or so on to wash up later....

Checking out the Lenovo Vibe K4 Note


I was all curious when a blogger friend got the the Lenovo Vibe K4 Note to review and begged for the chance to look it over and check it out... after all, I can be a bit of a gadget freak as most of us are and want to know what is going on and the latest that is out from the many smart phone companies...

The Lenovo Vibe K4 Note looks lovely even with a first glance with a slightly curved back panel design, with features metallic rim defining its sides. It has a removable panel that can be taken off to put in dual SIM cards and a microSD card. I like this a lot... I kind of half resent some of those phones, my Vivo and Huawei included where I cannot open the back panel... soooo annoying especially when the phone hangs!!!

Fighting free radicals and environmental aggressors with vitamin c24


It is a free radical fighter, a collagen creator, a skin brighter and heaven sent, I think.... It is none other then Indeed Labs’ newest innovation, the vitamin c24, an intense cream formulated with a pure form of Vitamin C that does not oxidize, stays stable, and helps fight off environmental stressors.

BDB Climb and Run Langkawi 2016 preview....


I got pulled into a preview route climb and run in Langkawi by a blogger friend of mine and I unwittingly said yes, because, well… I was excited to see how a run in the forest felt like…

The forest can be after all a very mystical and magical place… sometimes… blame it on the diet of Enid Blyton Enchanted Forest books I grew up on and also those stories of magical folks, Jungle Book and bunians you hear about… OK, I am not about to wax lyrical over my fantasies….

It was only a few days when I got the email when I realised what I let myself in for… hahaha… I was horrified… and stunned myself a little when I found out that the route was a 4000 over steps , 4287 steps to be exact and 3.1km in length and followed by a 15 km run downhill…..

Nevertheless, since it was a preview route run, and with the encouragement of my friend, I thought I should just challenge myself and see how far I can go. Crazy right?? When all this while I have only done fun runs for 3-5 km… and that also brisk walking… hahahah….

Cool and affordable spectacles at GlassesShop.com

With the rising cost of living, and the implementation of GST, sometimes it is so much more convenient and better to just stay home and buy whatever you need online, since there are so many pretty awesome online shops selling amazing things that do not burn a hole in your pocket.


I am short sighted and have been that way for a pretty long while now, and it gets pretty expensive nowadays to get a pair of glasses made at the optical shop...especially with high power etc...but I found a solution to my problems.....

Eating is a pleasure in life... of course, we should not over indulge, (for health and image sake -unless you are fortunate like some people I know who can eat all they want and never get fat!!!) but when I do, which is like once or twice a week, I choose good food to indulge in...

More than just television...

Full of curiosity and wanting to know more, I attended the Media Prima Television Networks Screening held at the Majestic Kuala Lumpur with some media friends.


And boy were there plenty of news, and changes which we can expect as Media Prima Television Networks introduced a whole new array of content and initiatives that will ensure its continued leadership position in all genres, non-stop engagement of the lucrative premium Malay and Chinese mass target audiences and new services aimed at the local digital landscape.
The theme of this year MPTN Screening was “More Than Just TV” carefully selected to show their leverage on the divergence of media to offer offerings and solutions that are both interactive and immersive.
“Media Prima is not just on your TV – we are on your laptop, PC, tablet, smartphone. We are even on your 50-inch Smart TV at home. We are online, we are on apps, and we are on-ground. We are everywhere, we reach everyone. We’re more than just TV,” said Datuk Kamal Khalid, Chief Executive Officer of Media Prima Television Networks (MPTN).

GIMME GIMME ABBA!!!!!

Almost everyone has at least one favorite ABBA song.. and it is because that ABBA is such a popular group with just too many catchy songs... Did you know ABBA comes from the initials of the first names of the members of the group: Agnetha Faltskog, Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus and Anni-Frid Lyngstad and was formed back in Stockholm in 1972. What makes ABBA so popular is because of the feeling of innocence and catchy pop lyrics many people can relate to.... 


And who can resist or not imagine it themselves....."You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen, Dancing queen, feel the beat from the tambourine, You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life, See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen"

I am not quite someone who like dancing but yet when I hear ABBA's songs like this, I really feel like swaying and moving to the beat...

Yours truly was at the Glasshouse at Seputeh to learn more and to start participating in #THE21DAYMISSION....

Dealing with haters and petty people

Have you realized, there are many times in life when no matter what you do and or do not do, there will always be someone there to ever ready rain on your parade. They are your haters…  Haters are people who hate! Remember the story of the man, his son /wife and the donkey??



They are jealous of what you are, and what you have become… but they choose to express negativity toward you and your accomplishments in the hope of tearing you down to their level and yes, many a  times, it works, it works when your own confidence level is shaky…. It works when you are slightly doubtful of yourself and then you fall, and that would be their happiest moments….

What did you do over the weekend... I followed my blogger friend Misz Ella around on some errands and we ended up at the SJKC Choong Wen along Jalan Klang Lama. Why? Apparently there was a KpopX & Zumba Fitness Party 2016 happening there...

Miss Malaysia Petite Universal 2016


Most girls dream of being a princess, a celebrity, a model, and even a beauty queen. Some of them have the looks and the brains but their size and stature, fail them as they are born petite or short... to be a model or a beauty queen, you are supposed to be more then 5'8 or so tall, I think.... and if you are shorter then that as a majority of Asian women are, you simply do not qualify...but now, it is no longer that way...

Introducing the faster than faster vivo V3 Max


I am always fascinated when new phones get launched as I think most gadget freaks would be as well.. and this one is the latest launched from vivo since they last launch the vivo X5 Pro last year. I have been using the vivo X5 Max and it is definitely one of my favorite phones... 

Hell.. (oops, pardon my language) I dropped it into a bucket of water accidentally once and was scared to death it was a goner and at another time again I accidentally spilled water inside my bag which got my digital camera haywired but my vivo seemed perfectly fine after I wiped it off carefully, much to my relief!!! Maybe I am just lucky, but maybe its vivo!!! So I will attest to the fact vivo is really a good phone....

Man swallows a sword on Britain's Got Talent


Don't you somehow love those talent shows where you get to watch people from all walks of life showing of their skills? Some which can make you go all agog, some which annoys you and some that make you do a double take.....

Anyway, Britain’s Got Talent is back with a bang! At just the first round of auditions viewers and the judges, of course, saw some incredible acts, including Alex Magala, who got everyone shrieking in horror with his sword-swallowing routine..... and here is an interview with the The 26-year-old from Moldova who performed what has been described as "one of the most dangerous acts ever" on Britain's Got Talent....

Pitch Perfect.... at Page to Pitch (P2P) Media 360





When I was a kid, I often dream of getting a book of my so called pathetic life published. I reckon that it could be a best seller... either that... or maybe come up with some bombastic or supernatural make belief stuff... And that was what my school mates remember of me in secondary school... I was the one who would write long essays or stories for them to read.... 

Yeah, I used to dream of being a writer but then I never went far as I did not have the opportunity to pursue it or any of my studies further .  So is there anyone out there who is reading this who dreams of being a writer, an author??? Maybe you have even already wrote a book you think which can be publish... However before you can convince a publisher to buy your work you'll have to get them to read it in the first place.

Simple planning for an amazing wedding...

The cost of an average wedding, can soar to above RM50,000, and many couples to take out personal loans to pay for their nuptials if they are unable to get much financial support from their middle class parents.

A daughter of a close friend of mine, who is very much like a god daughter to me is planning to say I do and asked for my assistance in planning her wedding as she did not want to really be too extravagant...


After all excessive spending on weddings can strained a newlyweds’ relationships, and cause many newlyweds to get divorced after splurging on their big day because of financial concerns over starting a family, or even buying a car, so it is important to stick to your budget and not go overboard.

Starhill Gallery Fashion Week 2016 : Debenhams Spring Summer 2016 collection


Yours truly was over at the Starhill Gallery Fashion Week 2016 on the last day to check out Debenham's Spring/Summer 2016 collection...I am a huge fan of Debenhams as it is the place I can find beautiful quality clothing from British designers at affordable prices and well, in my size because I am kinda European sized...and so I was thrilled and excited to see the new designs....

Make it Happen with Maybelline!!


All girls want to look pretty... and I have always loved playing with make up even though I am not great at make up .. I have been a huge fan of Maybelline since I was a teenager...to me, Maybelline represent gorgeousness and beauty .... and at an affordable price..

So when I was invited to Maybelline's launch of a new tagline.. I was thrilled.. Maybelline's previous tagline was ," Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline..."  which insinuates to young women all over that she is defined by the look which she was born with or she used Maybelline makeup to enhanced it...

The new tagline is "Make It Happen" , created to spur young women on in their journey of pursuing their dreams. Young Malaysian women can now go after their dreams without doubts or fears, and approach it with the confidence, positivity and creativity that comes with the use of makeup too....

Play Safe with Watsons Baby Naturals....


When you are a parent, it is natural you will only want the best available products for your little ones...it should be gentle on our baby's skin yet strong enough to wash away those 'nasty surprises' your little baby loves to present you with inside their diapers... heheeh.. and food spills when they are much older..

Watsons Malaysia is always leading in product innovation to provide their customers the vatiation within their stores, and they are proud to present  Baby Naturals which has been made lovingly with certified Calendula from Australia.....

Most people know that Calendula is most highly sought after for their healing properties and it can deeply moisturize and hydrate the skin. I remember when I had chicken pox, or measles and yes, I was unfortunate enough to have both... or rashes, the only thing we turn to was to Calendula...

#Don'tWorryMom !!


Motherhood is beautiful. At long last, you have a child of your own... (never mind if he/she is born from your own womb or adopted....)  Once you hold that baby/child in your arms for the first time and realize the weight of your responsibility, worry will bubble up as a natural by-product.

Here is sharing half a dozen of the worries moms will tend to have will be...

Where is the money for “that” going to come from? It seems like every time I turn around I’m having to spend money for something. And your child seems to want more then you expect or are prepared to give him/her.

Is that a sniffle or the flu? Just one of the things that moms worry about.

Ok, yours truly is not exactly a HUGE football fan but I do enjoy watching my favourite teams play against one another... as a member of the fairer sex, I take the opportunity to "cuci mata" (make googly eyes....) or admire the good looking players more then understand the game, like my male friends and husband....

I have combination skin on my face and some areas which can be very dry indeed. And sometimes when the weather is hot, I tend to start scratching at these areas as well as it becomes itchy or irritated....and if I am under the sun for a couple of hours, my skin can get burnt easily..

Where to get help for colourblindness...


Do you know that roughly about 1 in 20 people have some sort of color vision deficiency. The world looks different to these people: they often find it hard to tell red and green things apart.


There are different causes of colour blindness. For the vast majority of people with deficient colour vision the condition is genetic and has been inherited from their mother, although some people become colour blind as a result of other diseases such as diabetes and multiple sclerosis or they acquire the condition over time due to the aging process, medication etc.

SongkRUN KL 2016

songkran 2015

Ok, ok, I just could not resist posting that above picture but it is not mine... the photo should be credited to Songkran2015.com .... but well... that is just the idea of what Songkran is like in our neighbouring country Thailand... I have never yet gotten a chance to participate in Songkran but from what I gather, it is a water festival in Thailand that will take place from the 13 to the 15th of April, to celebrate Thailand’s traditional New Years Eve celebration...

Songkran was originally celebrated by Thai people who will sprinkle water on their family members and elders for good fortune and pay their respects to images of their beloved Buddha. 

However these days, the festival has become a wet and wild 3 days of  splashing locals and visitors who are on the street with buckets of water, water hoses and super soakers, so be ready to get wet if you are in Thailand when its Songkran Festival...

Hotels: Adhisthana Hotel in Yogyakarta

I miss Yogyakarta and am planning a trip back there maybe next year or so...depending on my budget. Yogyakarta is to me, an absolutely charming little town filled with historical sights and charming people...

Yogyakarta is the soul of Java. Yogyakarta (pronounced ‘Jogjakarta’ and called Yogya or Jogja for short), is where the Javanese language is at its purest, Java’s arts at their brightest and its traditions at their most visible.
It is the only state which is still independent and protective of its customs, and has a sultan, whose kraton (palace) is still full of tradition.
If someone were to tell me I have to stay in Indonesia... I would definitely choose to stay here in Yogyakarta...So, I really will be headed back to Yogyakarta for a few more visits in the near future....


And... I have heard about the Adhisthana... have you??

TV for Kids: Lion Guard Series



Most of us... I would say... have watched the Lion King...and some of us may have cried when Mufasa, Simba's dad died trying to save him. The Lion Guard is a thrilling new series that follows Kion, son/ second cub of Simba and Nala ... he is the leader of the Lion Guard, a team of animals tasked with preserving the Pride Lands...

Set in the African Savanna, “The Lion Guard” follows the adventures of Kion and members of the Lion Guard

Traditionally, the Lion Guard comprised of the bravest and strongest lions in the Pride Lands. However, Kion defies tradition by calling upon some of his friends who typically wouldn’t have made the cut.

Go for gold.... with Dettol


Some parents, especially first time parents may be a bit over paranoid. I know of a new mom who goes around almost spraying antibacterial sanitizer all over anything and everything around where her baby is.. and she even keep sanitizing her hands every hour or so....
This probably sounds like the right thing to do to most of the nervous new parents looking to do the best by their kids. But do you know it is also good to let their immune system learn and figure out a little on what to do with the bacteria they come across....
Yes, the normal bacteria around us actually teaches our baby’s immune system how to investigate, and figure out how to respond to the different bacteria there is around. The immune system has to learn how to pick out which cells in the body aren’t actually supposed to be there, and if the immune system can't even get a chance to practice on harmless bacteria, it would be in a state of confusion when some really bad and serious bacteria appears.
So I always believe in a balanced lifestyle... of allowing my children to explore and even get a little dirty... Having a pet in the house is also a good way to give your kid the good kind of immune exposure; but so is just being outside in the wide world: playing in the park, or in the rain, splashing in the mud for half an hour or such.. this can do alot for our children's immune system and also allow our children to enjoy their childhood..
All I know is when the half an hour or hour I allocate her to have her fun and get dirty is over, she has to come in and clean up well... and for this I choose Dettol..
