Rewinding to Day 1 of CNY

The first day of Chinese New Year was the most boring one. Mummy has never been so free and relax to be able to stick in front of the television for almost the whole day! Unbelievable! When others asked me how we spent our holidays, mummy just told them that we had dinner in the restaurant most of the nights.

Mummy, papa and the kids joined reunion dinner with my parents, uncles and aunts on the first day. After that, mummy and kids visited our relatives.

The kids had fun in the playroom…….

while

the adults,

men gambled and women in mahjong war……!!! LOL

Mummy didn’t join either of it. Mummy was having a discussion with other ladies about home remedies for blackheads and about some make-up skills. That’s me, a vain pot mummy! My children always agree on that!

Meanwhile, at another corner,

my boy was protesting that he didn’t want to be an “angel” !!!

Haha!  :D

Aloe Vera Concentrate

I understand that when family get together during the festive season, we can’t escape from eating till over throw. My mother-in-law likes to cook so much. Whenever celebrating great festival at home, she would be cooking a lot of dishes for us. There would be meat more than vegetables. There shall be ducks, chicken and fish on the table. Her dish is quite oily to me, but somehow I dare not comment in front of her.

She always tells us that she doesn’t add much oil inside each dish, but why is there so much oil? I suspect that she cooks with the domestic animal’s skin. My tummy would feel uneasy after eating a lot. I will consume aloe vera concentrate as it is the best colon cleanser I know. Or else, I shall feel full till the next morning!

Eat Full, Play Full

Mummy guess that Chinese New Year season is some days where children and adults to eat and play with all their might! My kids did enjoy their holidays as they could play with their game boy with unlimited time. Mummy didn’t scold at all. Besides playing, they ate, and ate all kinds of biscuits, chips and cakes. Not only them, mummy and papa did the same too! Watching television while munching on crackers.

That is why mummy is anxious looking for fat burner reviews online. Papa is more conscious than mummy as his tummy has been bulged out. Eh, why need to worry? Has mummy forgotten? Yes, mummy has Herbalife! Losing weight is not a problem.  :D

Meeting With Judy

I was so glad to be able to meet a young blogger mummy, Judy on the third day of Chinese New Year. We have been reserved each other before the festive season came. ^.^

From left, Judy, Shirley and Me

We met in Indulgence, a cozy and quiet place for meeting up. Once we sat together, we were like old friends chatting non-stop. I have so many questions to throw on her and so did she. We talked about everything about food, home, husbands and kids.

Judy asked whether I still want a third child. She can recommend me the best prenatal vitamins for me. Aiyo, don’t be kidding…..more than enough now!

We did ask about his son, Terry. When she related her nightmare again, somehow I felt a bit sour in my heart. Well, she is tough, and hope that Judy and Terry would overcome all difficulties in days to come. Everything will be fine the next day!

Reunion Night ~ Welcoming The Prosperity God

My in-law would definitely not missing out the ‘Welcoming The Prosperity God‘  ceremony on the reunion night before Chinese New Year each year. We prayed between 12am to 1am. There were fruits, veggie dish, cakes and glutinous rice cakes for the servings.

My father-in-law is the expert as he reads books about the rules of praying. He led the family members in praying with the joss-sticks. Adults and children prayed and wished for all the best and health. Well, my cheeky Zhen Nam did pray and ask something from the God too! Haha…..he wished that God would give him lots of Naruto DVDs wor…..  :D   LOL

After the ceremony, all of us had our supper with all the fruits, cakes and veggie. Though those were not high calories food but if taken daily as supper, I guess everyone would need the best weight loss products after all.

Surprises From Papa To Mama

Mummy often complains about shoulder pain and worried whether I would need to go for treatments for arthritis. Hubby is the victim as he has to listen to my complaints. But then, he has planned something nice behind my back…….

Everyone knows that Valentines’ Day falls on the first day of Chinese New Year. Mummy received my LV handbag a month ago before CNY, and I thought that would be my Valentines’ gift. Mummy bought a pair of Levis jeans for hub too, and I confessed to treat it as my Valentines’ pressie for him. Well, pressie things settled.

Nevertheless, mummy’s another surprise came right on the reunion night! Hubby bought me something unexpected. He gave me a floral diamond white gold pendant as Valentines’ present to me! Wow….really unexpected! Mummy was happy but a bit heart pain too because quite expensive. Mummy told papa that I would rather use the money for travel to oversea. But still, mummy is happy and appreciated. The gifts are really beautiful.

May All Get Your Surprises And Brightens Up Your Day!!!

HAPPY VALENTINES’ DAY

Crowded Jusco

During the festive season, the most popular places for the Chinese would be Jusco shopping mall. Parents go there along with kids to buy new clothes and snacks and drinks for Chinese New Year.

Mummy went there too with kids. There were so crowded and interesting events were shown in the hall. A group of local singers called, “WE” ….. not so sure about the spelling though as mummy hasn’t heard about them, was performing on the stage. They were so energetic and lively when dancing. Dancing is a quick weight loss method then!

Besides, there was a ‘crocodile’ alike mascot awaiting for the children or anyone to snap photos! Unfortunately, my kids were shy.

But then, they wanted this……..

Uncle clown was giving away sculpturing balloons for the young ones!

Although they were shy and coward, mummy still pushed them up for photos……I know them, they always want something but dare not. My boy was used to be brave, but because his sister’s influence, he has somehow turned to be chicken like his sis nowadays! *shake head*

Old Suffering Is Back!

Mummy is weak. Have I turned that old already? I am suffering shoulder pain so badly lately. I don’t want any joint pain relief but settle my neck ache. This has been with me since I was young. Few months ago, I felt better than now after having treatment spa regularly at home. Ever since last month, I stopped to be so hardworking, and the problem comes back in attack.

Maybe mummy is just too tired. I really need to rest more. I feel worse during my menstruation period. :(

Want To Be ‘FAT’ ??!

Mummy is currently consuming a cell nutrition food product for my family. My kids love it and mummy finds it amazing. This product contributes 42 kinds of essential nutrients which our bodies need each day, while being able to help someone to lose weight, gain weight, be more beautiful and also as health supplement.

My best pal always complain about being too skinny. She doesn’t need any diet aid but she wants to be “fat” !! Very rarely to hear anyone saying like this huh! Mummy then suggested her to try the health product. She loves it as well. Even though she hasn’t seen obvious results on increasing weight, but she told me that she can’t live without it now! Surprising huh!  :)

Mummy Wants A Maid

I am so tired lately. I sleep at 1am each night and wake up at 6am every morning…….ever since school reopens, and ever since I moved to new house! My face is getting more sensitive lately and can see tiny acne often. Luckily I have a cooling eye gel which can be used as acne spot treatment in helping to prevent this ‘disaster‘ from getting serious. *sigh*

I am like a cleaning lady at home. Once I am at home, I will just find anything to wash and clean. Dozen of clothes from kids, dusty surface of furniture, cleaning cups and blendering nutrition drink for kids and myself……therefore, I would run out of house if I want to complete my personal tasks!

How I wish I have a stay-at-home maid who can remove the burden from me!
