Talk To Me Baby: Inaugural Christmas Hampers 2014
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2014/12/inaugural-christmas-hampers-2014.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Friday, December 12, 2014. Inaugural Christmas Hampers 2014. Nine years later, after I had my third baby, a Noel hamper arrived from a close Uncle and Aunt who were regretful that they couldn't attend the baby shower, which is actually known as the Full Month Birthday Celebration among Chinese people. A NOEL hamper! The brand I'd always seen on TV as a little girl! Next I lined the boxes with what I call bouquet paper cos I really dunno the official name for it, but it's what m...

THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Tuesday, March 10, 2015. Migration of Homeschool Posts to a New Dedicated Blog. Now that I have finally decided to really go ahead with homeschooling my Mouse through Kindergarten, I guess I should really focus on it, and posting our journey will also help me to keep myself motivated and in focus. I have migrated all my previous posts on "homeschooling" to. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. My Homeschool Blog - Training a Mouseketeer.

Talk To Me Baby: Milestone Day
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2013/02/milestone-day.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Friday, February 15, 2013. To give me a break once a week from driving to school 3 times almost daily, my eldest child who will be twelve soon, is going to come home on her own via public bus for the first time in her life. But I know I must let go and allow her to grow up. So I am going to take a shower and have a little nap (if I can). And if she doesn't show up by 5pm I am going to walk down to the bus stop to wait.

Talk To Me Baby: Choke choke cough cough.. Haze please go away
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2013/06/choke-choke-cough-cough-haze-please-go.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Wednesday, June 19, 2013. Choke choke cough cough. Haze please go away. So we haven't had conditions this bad since 1997, when the PSI was 226 at its highest. The talk all over Facebook is about the severity of the haze, and the lighting of fires in Indonesia (which is causing all this). We were chilling out in my bedroom (actually going through mistakes in assessment books) with the aircon on when Ray looked out the window and gasped, "Wow! The sun is red! And so I took a pic.

Talk To Me Baby: Cheese cupcakes
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2013/05/cheese-cupcakes.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Sunday, May 12, 2013. I first fell in love with cheesecake years ago when I tried out (for fun) this recipe on Allrecipes called Chantal's New York Cheesecake. A slice of New York Cheesecake. Then recently, I came across a recipe that made mini-cupcakes out of cheesecakes. It seemed so easy - just beat, pour and bake. Really? Oh dear, this last sentence was bad grammar but I'm too sleepy to figure the right structure out). In the pic above, two cakes are topped with some choppe...

Talk To Me Baby: Meringue Kisses
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2013/02/meringue-kisses.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Tuesday, February 19, 2013. Over the weekend, I finally found something else to do with my 30 eggwhites leftover from making kueh lapis legit, other than macarons (which I've failed at and do not intend to try again, yet) and steamed milk custard (which I love but am not in the mood to make). Meringue Kisses are new to our family, but I have seen them outside at some specialty bakery, think it was some stall at Raffles City. All those huge brightly-coloured round shapes. My Lif...

Talk To Me Baby: New Home (again) and Old Memories (of Dettol)
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2014/07/new-home-again-and-old-memories-of.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Sunday, July 20, 2014. New Home (again) and Old Memories (of Dettol). We have finally moved into our new place, where we hope to "stay long long". After moving house every two to three years in the last 13 years (and all within our homeland, mind! We hope we have learnt from our previous renovation mistakes. Our new home is bursting with custom-made designs and ideas from our house-moving journey, as well as incredible inspiration from Pinterest. I love Pinterest! Mother of thr...

Talk To Me Baby: The Day The HDB Approval Came
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2014/05/the-day-hdb-approval-came.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Friday, May 23, 2014. The Day The HDB Approval Came. One of our biggest headaches in this renovation was the approval for hacking down a couple of walls. According to the ID, it had to do with this area (Bedok), which was supposedly notorious for being troublesome. Well, it finally came and the team lost no time in knocking the walls down. We were, after all, very delayed in our schedule. Balcony sliding door removed. Living room wall hacked to reveal new living room.

Talk To Me Baby: Three Layered Sponge Cake
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2015/01/three-layered-sponge-cake.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Wednesday, January 07, 2015. Three Layered Sponge Cake. This cake caused me a lot of anguish. I started two days earlier before the birthday celebration of a close friend and mentor, with previously successful recipes, but batch after batch failed (thick fatty layer on bottom of cake) till I was at my wits' end. Up till now, I still don't know what I did in the last batch that magically resulted in these almost perfect sponge cakes. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Talk To Me Baby: Finally, success with the Waterfall Braid
http://talktomebaby.blogspot.com/2013/07/finally-success-with-waterfall-braid.html
THE UNIVERSE IS LISTENING. Tuesday, July 09, 2013. Finally, success with the Waterfall Braid. All thanks to my neighbour who asked me to try again even though I'd failed miserably at it a year ago on my daughter's hair. The highlights in her hair really bring out the effects of the braid. Here's a side view of the braid. We left her fringe out. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. My Homeschool Blog - Training a Mouseketeer. My Bento Blog - Oh Mighty Bento!
