Archive for April, 2015. April 26, 2015. My father has beautiful penmanship. I’ve always admired his Chinese writing and his vast knowledge of China history and culture. When we were young, we used to love the Singaporean sitcom Under One Roof about the Tan family. The family patriarch Tan Ah Teck would end most episodes by telling a story to his kids ‘long before your time, in the southern province of China…’. During this trip he told me a funny story about Deng Xiao Ping visiting America. April 21, 2015.

Ramen in the city. Of Dayre and Kindle. March 15, 2015. Just a short post to say that I’m still alive haha. Actually I’ve been posting a lot on dayre. And so far it’s been very easy and lots of fun. Let’s see how long that lasts. My favourite part is reading my sisters’ dayre posts and especially my ah ma’s dayre! Even better news, my ah pa and ah ma are visiting us in October! Only for two weeks but it will be lots of fun. Plus the weather will be a lot cooler then so they should enjoy it. Follow &ldquo...

Cycle | daitaoha

May 14, 2015. Daitaoha Earns a Living. Can’t believe (actually quite predictable lah I go through this every year) that I’m back in my vicious work cycle of wondering what the hell I’m doing and thinking about quitting again. I never go through with quitting though (especially with the horrendous job market at the moment! Just being a drama mama as usual. I do irritate myself with my melodrama. Am I overworked because I should be able to time manage better? And my mentee is brilliant! Feed for this Entry.

Singapore family trip | daitaoha
https://daitaoha.wordpress.com/2015/04/21/singapore-family-trip
April 21, 2015. I recognise that my blog is half dead now that I’m primarily blogging from dayre. It is so much easier and instant. This is my bedroom window view from the 35th floor. I love this flat, it’s a home away from home and I already know that we will have wonderful happy times here for years to come. Responses to “Singapore family trip”. Feed for this Entry. May 11, 2015 at 11:13 am. You still have people like me who read your blog! May 14, 2015 at 10:40 pm. Looking forward to catch up too.

Happy Chap Goh Meh. Of Dayre and Kindle. Ramen in the city. March 8, 2015. The quest for the best Japanese in Perth. It has been a family laden fun weekend first starting with Fremantle beach on a Saturday with the kids. I think our Jurien Bay beach swimming got me hooked, that’s crazy for someone who fears the heat and hates summer. Jan and I had the miso ramen with a side of mentaiko. Love mentaiko. This was quite tasty but we were all very thirsty after our meal, too much msg in the ramen! It’s ...

Sunday roast dinners | daitaoha
https://daitaoha.wordpress.com/2015/03/22/sunday-roast-dinners
Of Dayre and Kindle. March 22, 2015. We were at Papparich for lunch on Saturday and the wait was horrendous. It was made worse by inexperienced and disorganised waitresses cluckling around in stress. I’m not sure why management didn’t just assign one person to man the queue, it would have saved the waitresses asking each person 6 -times in a row how many seats were required for each table. Very refreshing with lychee, longans, mint leaves, a lime wedge, lychee syrup and soda water. Feed for this Entry.

Jurien Bay Labour Day camping: Day 1. Ramen in the city. Happy Chap Goh Meh. March 5, 2015. And just like that it’s the last day of Chinese New Year! Chap Goh Meh dinner tonight. Not as many dishes as reunion dinner but was still a merry affair. I’ve been on a chiffon cake frenzy, third chiffon cake in the past month but this time I made an orange one which is my personal favourite. If my sisters are reading this, don’t worry I’ve saved you a boxful. Mad March daze ahead. . Feed for this Entry. Sometime ...

I love this flat, it’s a home away from home and I already know that we will have wonderful happy times here for years to come. March 22, 2015. Anyway the reason for that rant was to say that I liked the lychee soda drink at Papparich which was a pricey $4.60 and was sure I could recreate it at home. So I did! March 15, 2015.
