new colours!

these few weeks my papa house and Digo house are under contraction :) papa house is having new painting coat and my Digo house doing renovation of the kitchen and repaint the house. so the mess and dirt at home hmmm...


the living hall, nite and day time colour reflection are different. I like the almond white at the living hall :) the light yellow at the rest area has the dimmer effect, so now my mum won't be dizzy of the direct bright light when watching tv. she claims she has better sleep quality at night ^^


the store room with new cabinet. the wall is almond white colour. look brighter now the store room.


more organised :)


the new shoes cabinet. the exterior wall is in beige colour. compare to the previous pure white, now you can see the difference :)


so the house is in the mess, those old stuff now can get chance to breath :p these are the plates my papa bought for us 4 siblings. now, handover to my children. almost 30 years of childhood memory, now share with my children ^^ have the thought, what I am doing, giving the best and beautiful stuff to children, were what my parents did for us when we were young. so, what I have done for my bbb now, hopefully they can do for their future babies :)


so we found old toys too. the boy got frustrated, when the block is too much or too little for him to build a nice pyramid. geram at himself. then I asked him go to sleep, if not, non stop bising ooo.

more to go before the house get settled down. mama is tired, children are busy (busybody), papa's money out only :p most important, the members of the house are in happiness of family love. all worth!

Monday lunch :)

supposed to have a pic on today yummy lunch box, but I accidentally deleted the pic :p my Digo cooked very yummy vegetable curry. most of the time, I bring mama homecook lunch box to the office. now thinking, if I can cook fresh healthy meal for my lunch box and papa's lunch at home. then, what time I need to wake up? :p



bought this organic jumbo sized raisins last weekend. quite yummy. not that I want to go for truly organic diet, I bought this coz rm19 free another pack of the raisins (quite a lot). this is much cheaper than the normal mini pack of raisins I eat in the office. sometime, 1 day 1 box of rm1 to rm1.60.



just now I spring cleaning my office cabinet. oh, more spaces for backup food then hahaha :D see, I have Black soya bean powder, oats, tea bags and tea from Tibet too!

after that, I went for the vegetable soup.


the creamy pumpkin, carrot, celery soup. yum yum!



see this at 1 of the office level entrance nice oooo!!

ok, back to work. btw, I still having these yummy foods from china and hong kong :D souvenir from my boss too! so, don't worry, I won't get hungry in the office. full of food and energy ya!!! :D

yo! good morning :D


morning breakfast for my papa n myself :)


together with a cup of celery + apple + oligo honey + flaxseed juice :D

ya, long time no blog le! my supervisor shall be back to the office today, after a week of acting, a week of standby mode to FIGHT in the war :p today I feel relaxed. hmm for the whole week, there was big hu-ha once that involved big bosses, the rest are small matters that were within my capability to solve :p anyway, there is a list of nearly 30 points recorded to be highlighted to my boss :p

today is shiyi's bday :) today is also my sis and Bruce 3 years anniversary :D ya, 2 of them are in bukit tinggi highlands now, love love ya! they may go other highlands today to complete their 3 days 2 nights love outing. wish them in the pool of love sweetness, forever n ever and won't get diabetic la :p

talking about diabetic, recently we found fruit jam and nectar for my papa. so he now can taste sweetness in his food happily. last night he told me 'ohh.. I gained weight now' :p try to prepare different type of foods and drinks for him. I found many recipe blogs on sugar-dairy-wheat-gluten free foods preparation. this is not only suitable to my papa, but my sis too! my sis just found out what her vaginal and urine infection can be with her for 2+ years - food intake! she shouldn't take cheese, sugar, wheat, fish.. those acidic type foods. so now is time for her to change - eat like cow! grass only kekeke :p




this is what I prepared in Saturday night - 10 grains rice and tofu based steamed fillet. quite yummy and fresh. the carrot and capsicum are fresh and juicy. but my sis didn't want to eat at home, went out pastor and eat outside :( will try this recipe again, and let my papa and mama taste it :)



I baked strawberry muffins on sunday. my mum said the muffins were sweet! so I didn't try it. laogong bought few for his colleague. my mum bought mini muffins for my nephew. the rest, sapu by my children :D

tata! update more in other posts, need to read back my previous posts so I can continue all those unfinished stories :p many things to share, you can see my Facebook photos upload ^^

recipe for happiness

papa is having diabetes and sis is having infection - no sugar or less sugar for their menu. every weekday morning I prepare vegetable soup for papa, so he has more choices and colors for breakfast :)



pumpkin + carrot



bitter gourd + pumpkin + black sesame

papa and brother have high blood pressure too! so ingredient choices are to reduce bp, blood sugar level, increase good cholesterol ^^



weekend I bake or steam some sugarless or less sugar recipe, or non sugar added homemade soya bean or bean soups so papa and sis can have variety of food choices :)



red beans + barley + red dates


banana + dark chocolate chips cupcakes

bbb are exploring on new food and vegetables, so I always make way to add vege or new food to their food. besides, we can do some art work in the kitchen, cute shapes and mould for the vege :) Eva is after her eyes surgery and she has bad digestion system - more carrot and oats in porridge or meal ^^ royee is difficult to try new food color and taste - so devil mummy always blend pumpkin and cook 'yellow porridge' or any special colours porridge :p angel is not fussy about food, she eats everything ^^


mixed herbs added roasted chicken for homemade chicken rice ^^



laogong loves soup and curry, bro in law doesnt eat fish. bbb likes rice. sis wants less rice... for my mama, she only eats what she loves to eat, no control no restriction one >.< so I help to buy more food supplements for her. joint formulas, hormone balance, multivitamins...

for myself, not much demand. family members are in the pink of health, then I have the best recipe for my happiness :D






ps: feel free to share with me good and healthy recipe ya. easy steps better, new beginner ma :p

praise dance class

been wanting to pay a visit to this class held at the church I attend weekly. the class is in Saturday 8:30-9:30am.



last night I slept early, so this morning, we managed to go to the church, and see this.. wahhh a group of old and young are doing exercise and praising God as well! :)



am lucky to have children who are very good attitude in learning and they are very proactive and supportive on new skills and knowledge learning.



for all the music class, drawing class and ballet class, all are requested by them. my colleague said I spoilt my children, hmm maybe you don't know, for the classes to be enrolled, I would at least let them wait and ask for 1 year. royee music class enrolled after 2 years of begging. drawing class a year. ballet class since age 2+ and 5 years old only confirmed.



the only 2 classes I would force them to go if they sometime are lazy or tired - kinder class and sunday school :) these two no tolerance. but 98% classes, I have no problem with them, they prepare themselves for their chosen classes ^^ so I shouldn't be complaining 'oh, how tired I am to take care my children' right? :p



so after the trial class for the praise dance, we have decided to go for the class every Saturday morning. royee said 'mummy, I want to join the class! not only we can have healthy exercise, we can praise the Lord too!' angels 'ya ya! me too!'



although 3 of them weekend classes are at 3 different locations, but I will arrange the schedule so children can get involved in healthy and fun learning lifestyle. with laogong help then should be ok ^^

8:30 - 9:30 praise dance
9:30 - 11 royee drawing
10 - 11 Eva music class, angel ballet class

yo! at least I have something for myself now :D and so lucky one, I can have class with my children now hehe :p may get my sis to join to, so we can have breakfast together when angel is in her ballet class ^^

sunny yellow day ^^

after a week of leave taken, yesterday in the office was a bit busy with those pending works and emails! now everything needs to be back to normal routine and wait for next follow up for eva's eyes.


today breakfast for my papa and myself - tomato + carrot + cashew nuts + oats + flaxseed + mix herbs

durian season. myself and papa eaten lots of durians. angel and Eva love durians too! bcoz of this, guess that papa's blood sugar level gone high. the wound on his foot is not ok for weeks. hmm...


my Digo married already! a very happy news for tiew family :D this is the drawing from Eva to my Digo and sis in law. can see the bride carries the flowers :D



night time drawing by royee. he loves to draw, but don't have great technique. I love his imagination and creative thinking. 'together we go to the church with your heart' can you see the heart man? :p



morning drawing. he is happy with the transformer pencil case set given by his music class teacher after his performance in graduation ceremony :)



time flies, 2 years junior course done. now he is at advanced class. asked him want to stop or not, he wants to continue. so continue paying money and sending him for his interest >.<



about our online store, we do it for interest. but then after few days no enquiry and business, our passion ada kena siram sikit @_@ we know everything also start from 1st step then slowly only we walk straight then only can run. so wait for our 1st customer to turn up. as my sister said, once we have the 1st business, then we can close shop already hahaha :D

ok. better work hard in the office, since online store no income at all :p

Thursday

最溫暖的事不是兩個人的擁抱；
最溫暖的事，是我在低谷時你能為我禱告！

1st working day of the week. thinking of last night and this morning I been having hard time to put the eyedrop and eye cream for eva, am tired and worried about her post-surgery condition. guess that her emotion status is not good, last night she just colored the piece of paper with only pencil. so we can only see grey-black on the paper. no drawing but color till both hands got black too. hmm. too small for the ops?

she is still having double vision. but the distance between 2 points are close. hope this is temporarily condition after surgery. the eyes are red, and her eyes looks tired.






pictures taken as requested by her, want to see how serious the eyes are then only want to put the eye cream. last night she sings 'thank you papa mama' :) hopefully she can feel our love and care for her.



eyes got swollen.


closed and eye and completed 5 homework. with 1 eye, she won't see the shadow.

hmmm.. will arrange the meet up with the specialist to train the brain to use the eyes muscles effectively. the surgery is not the end point.. more meet up and training to go.. lining up I have angel's weak fingers to treat..

huh~~
