Fashion Pregnant Mummies


Been browsing many celebrity mummies who wearing beautiful fashion style clothes, unlike in SG here. Nothing much can be found the smiliar ones above. Some shops at SG selling very boring & dull maternity clothes. Few designed ones suit for very mature ages (prefer not state the ages) that is definitely out for me. Few of maternity clothes I bought from Topshop or Dorothy Perkins. Sadly that I could not wear my skinny jean as my waist & hip has became bigger. *Sobbing* Kinda fainting when heard friend said maybe my baby grows big inside. Admit that I could not wait to welcome with my open both arms for my little prince baby arrival here sooner.

Japanese "NEW" dish



Got this funny & amazing picture from somewhere else and forget how I got it. But the page label is "Japanese Culture and else" all about foods, clothes and else in Japan. Never seen this dish turned out a sleeping cat lie on lunch box. So cuteeee......

Rice can be formed into a cat look alike much and just added something like ham, seaweed wrapping, veggy and fried prawns and else.

So anyone who will dare to try this new dish... It is not in Singapore lah. Too expensive to go to Japan somemore.

New taste of Kiwifruit

Used to hate eating green of Kiwifruit that has very sour taste despite it's good fruit which can prevent from having infection or else. Till my mother found the sweeter kiwifruit with yellow inside and asked me to try it. Till now my dear and I still eating them regularly.









I found this article from The Newpaper last month and proved it is good fruit and highly recommended. For health sake, try it. Available at NTUC or any supermarkets and cost only $3.95 for 5 pieces.

Korea Inspired Oversized


Kinda crazy over this inspired oversized tee from Korea. Already made decision to place order for tee list above. The price of tees is okay, slightly reasonable that is almost similar compare to Zara boutique. I chose two tees and costs total $61.00 + mailed together.

Managed to contact the local seller who doing Korea spree but she said most of tees are not available anymore. Then why she still post tees on her website despite of not available, no idea what went wrong with her or probably miscommunication but it dont affect me either.

Again, I email her to re-confirm to avoid double miscommunication and wanted to place two orders of oversized tees. Was about to confirme everything like transaction and else. Not much enough detail the seller mentions in her website.

She also reminded me that items may reach me about 3 - 4 weeks delay longer. Whoa.. so long to wait for item to arrive here, so asked her why so long lah blah... She added saying that because of 2 weeks public holiday in Korea that the shop was not in business operation during this holiday period. Alamak, she should have say earlier about this in her website so that I wont have to email her repeatedly and waited long for her to reply lor.

Imagine if I place order now then I receive items rougly the earliest first week of September. Think I do not have much patience left and gave it a miss. So wait for the next season collection then.

I'm NOT a Plastic bag











This bag has been launched last week if I am not wrong and till now it is still POPULAR to people who appreciate this designed bag with words "I'm NOT a Plastic bag". Bag designer's name Anya Hindmarch. Not only US, also Taiwan, Hong Kong and Korea. hmhm...to my personally, I didnt draw any fancy attention to this designed bag and I may find it abit funny if I carry this kinda of designed bag.

Surprised that got people who like or love this designed bag and I must say they have rare taste on this. Unlike of me. ^_^"

Also I saw yahoo auction selling this bag and the price is range $150 - $250, probably based on the distance country or involved international shippment cost that the seller bring in. I guess but I dont believe in pre-order or spree items.

Fashion Gimmick

Had come across few website of sellers which selling the EXACT same top as above. Some wrote in description saying "Imported from Korea" and the others claimed to say "Made in Taiwan". It began to confuse me sometimes and the fashion magazine editional is in Japanese language.

Something like you dont know where the tops come from? Or seller probably using korea or japan fashion mag photos to sell clothes that comes from either taiwan or hong kong.

However, please look at the picture very closer. The model wearing the top looked seem in a fine chiffon and the right side looked more like velvet material. It can be little tricky and they sell the same top at different price range $19.90 - $36.90. So much big difference.

Problem was that when buyer received the top and not happy as it turned out different from the magazine photo shown on website. *(I had seen few buyers complained about this before thru seller's testimonials or ratings.)

I made a single mistake before. I bought 2 tees (almost cost SGD$60.00) which is said claim imported from Korea. When I received tees that described exactly the same design as ones the in photo. But the label tag said "made in hong kong". I fainted upon seeing it. Email to this local seller about this but she denied it and never respond since then. I dont dare to believe in fashion magazine photos or manufacture label difference (e.g made in which country). It was my first bad experience.

Attempt of making soup

It is not so difficult to make soup like this. Learnt this from my mother before I try cooking soup myself. Just dot down the list to buy from NTUC: - round spinach, egg tofu, pototes x 2, carrots x 2 and tomatoes x 2.


Only ideal for soup. It is very easy and quicky to make soup together with shrimp wonton.


Peel off all its skin first. Then put them into pot for boiling to ensure that all are edible soften and easy to eat.


Additional is the lean pork together with other items. Tomatoes and egg tofu have to be sliced into pieces before cooking them. Actually I forget to remove 2 eggs as it is not included.


After potatoes and carrot become very soften fully then take them out for cutting into pieces. For round spinach too.


Prepare another pot with water to get ready for cooking soup. Put chicken soup cube in pot. After 5 mins, then put spinach inside first and the next is potatoes, carrot, tomatoes and egg tofu.

After that, stir items slowly inside ths pot. Do not too hard to stir or else all will be break into many pieces. Lastly, put shrimp wonton and lean pork together.



Finally, it is ready already to be served with brown rice. This bowl is big portion for my dear and I got one small bowl for myself. Not bad at all.

Ugly Words about YA seller

Just want to share something here after a discovery of afew dishonest sellers who are buyers at SG Yahoo Auction too. Had a unknown chance till one of my friend who wants to purchase item from one auction.

Let name this seller cum buyer as B.

She saw the nice top with some nice graphics designed on it and she was first time to buy clothes online. So she read this seller- B's ratings first before she placed bid it. This seller-B is also a buyer in her own same current yahoo id user.

The item actually was purchased directly from other seller-A only at ten dollars buck per piece. Buyer B paid seller-A $11.20 included normal postage.

Then it is not big surprise that seller cum buyer B can be dishonest and I rather not say she is a cheater to buyers online.

After B received the top promptly from seller-A, B copied the same item title exactly from A and jacked up the price up to $18.00 - $22.00 to sell it in her auction. My friend realised that the top was from seller-A at $10.00 and got rating received shown in B's yahoo rating comments clearly. Then she clicked the item page to view again and changed her mind not to buy from her. Too bad, this B denied it.

Not only this B, few sellers online are quite not honest. They are such a low-class YA sellers who dare to cheat buyers by jack up the prices anyhow.

Just in case, a word of advise, do be careful. Read seller's ratings first then ask them first before bidding items online.

Sunday Happiness

Yesterday- 8th July 2007 was a good idea of my hubby to have a sundry happiness together with me once a month in town like Orchard Road. Despite of his busy work schedule, he finally planned to spend time with me at Orchard to have breakfast and lunch, then go to bookshop and short shopping at Takashiaya for baby stuffs.

Then we went to Coffee Club, Ngee Ann City for breakfast and morning was very peaceful and no noisy jam road outside. We woke up early and reached there at nearly 10.15am. But this coffee club was nearly full house for morning breakfast. Amusing.

My hubby ordered this : - Smoked Salmon & Corn Cake.


I chose this : - Homemake Turkey Bread Sandwiche.

For coffee had to be paid and for tea is free. The tea was quite strong and taste different but the smell was fantastic. It was something like english kind tea. I am not tea lover but chose to try drank this tea as coffee is not good for pregnant women.


Taken at Coffee Club at Ngee Ann City.

After that, we went to Kinokuniya bookshop to buy books. Then ahead to Takashiaya department - baby section to take a look at pram and cot. We unable to make decision what to buy so we come again next month. At almost 2pm, we went to Paragon to have lunch at Spageddies Italian Kitchen but unfortunately, my digit camera was flat. Forget to charge up. *tap on my forehead*. We had so much things to say to each other and had nice spaghetii dishes. Then we went home to rest. Marriage has make us grow stronger to stay together. :))

Korea new fashion style




Are not they look pretty in their designed clothes? I browsed and found those many thousands of Korea new style clothes at website. They cannot be compared to those clothes designed such as in Hong Kong or Taiwan. More likely, I am quite attracted to every pieces of Korea clothes more than Taiwan ones.

Korea clothes are more sophisticated & creative & interesting pieces designed that are suitable to any women even no matter if they are for teen girls or mature women. Hard to explain, unless you come to korea website to see yourself then you will feel so much difference from HK or TW clothes. No wonder local sellers dont dare to import afew korea designed pieces back to SG to sell here. Too expensive for one piece but to me, even if it is too pricey, this piece is worth to buy and can last wear for long time as designed cant be found smiliar in SG or Taiwan or HK.

Really dont like those clothes in Taiwan as the designed clothes and model wearing too "cuteeee" or "too young" or "common patterns" and even suitable for all young SG teenagers wore them the same style. No way for women to wear like this.

How much I hate Dengue

This is where my family stays... It is at Yishun Ring Road, okie. But those plants are not belong to my mother as she does not own plant pot outside the corridor or at home. The next few doors neighbour owns too many plant pots at her corridor and plus the main corridor which is near the window and door of my mother's home.

It has been already 4 years and the woman still plant another new plant pot and never change water regularly and leave all the dead leaves lie everywhere near our door. I admit it was very frustrating for my mother to see dead leaves then sweep them to other sides.

Because of those horror plant pots, my mother, young nephew and niece have fever and flu everytimes and took long time to recover itself. My brother had a bad inflected fever. Poor my niece only 16months and got a huge mosquitoe bit red spot on her below leg. Still my mother never complained about this and been waiting for the plants to be removed clearly or less the number of plant pots at corridor.

Never know or expect of dengue development may happen sometimes and I began to worry about my family safety. Dengue is far worse more than SARS.

When I visited my mother's home and after few hours, suddenly I got 6 huge mosquitoe bits red spot on my upper arm and my back and shoulder.

Lucky I had my blood test at gynae clinic and said I am fine. After that, my hubby started to buy alot of mosquite spray, repels & liquid mosquite for my home in east area. He said I cannot afford to get this in my pregnancy state. I started to be very careful now.

I really hope that dengue disappears in no time and people in singapore should not be too ignorant for this big issue which is more important and mainly concern to their own families too.

Taken few photos outside the corridor and look at the numerous of plant pots near my family home door. Only the woman owner cleaned her pots which is near her door, that is unfair. How I wish the Environment Officer come and check those and give her some warning?

My family even my mother and hubby like this muffins and not like the normal muffins which you seen at bakery shop or coffeebean or starbuck.



You all can find this muffin shop in between of food court and cold storage at Bugis Junction, basement level after you walk up from Bugis Mrt.

You & Me on 01-07-07

Today is our 2nd wedding anniversary and I bought a classic black pen with engraved with our names and date to bring my hubby a beautiful memory. Not only this, also bought this card from Times Bookshop and lucky was that card is last piece left on card shelf.

This card is more far better with unique designed of couple and every words is really exactly the same description of my hubby. The back of cat with name "benny" is same as my hubby's name. Surprised...... So I bought it immediately without any hesitate.


Took this picture of pink layout before I wrote to my hubby. After writing memory & encourage thingy, I pass this card to him personally. He was surprised & shocked to see this card. He began to like it much.
He brought me to CS (century square) to have nice dinner together at Billy Bomber Restaurant but never know that shopping mall was too crowded especially at Metro Outlet which was closing down and everything now sale 50% off. Heard that Seyiu will take over this Metro Outlet (3 storey).
- If you are lover of sale 50% off everything (clothes, bags, make-up, perfumes, watches, blah many), please go & take a look at CS Metro before it closing down offically. -
