gunibb: i nearly bought the NESPRESSO machine from china last yr!! But it's too expensive to maintain cos u need to buy the cartridges. The SA in China let me try many flavours. I must say they were yummy! Good buy for your office
chewyring: ahhh, u will hv no kopi but Illy, Lavazza & Segafredo when u migrate to Shanghai! Lavazza is the No. 1 coffee in Italy, followed by Illy and Segafredo. OOHH, I'm a hopeless Espresso con Pannaaddict. tell u a little secret, i was so kopi-siao that i went on a holy grail quest all over shanghai to find the best Expresso con Panna, aka 康保蓝...
DRAWING DOTS vs OBJECTS: got difference in the children's world for sure, chewyring! i rem nicking my elder sis' kindergarten math worksheets to look at when I was 3. they used drawing of fruits to help kids rem better. E.g. Three is depicted by 3 strawberries. Incidentally, Eric Carle also presents numerals in that manner.
If u use dots, it's visually challenging for small kids to decipher rite? unless u stick them in the formation as those playing cards.
ehhh... I only draw better than Eric Carle lah! Worse than Picasso for sure...I'm sure all of us draw better than Eric Carle too
Oh no wonder, u don't cook, and ur maid doesn't cook either. I guess u shd move back. Hey, something "aunty" to recommend to u all...this Chng Kee's Yam Rice paste is really yummy. So easy to cook
Jaymickey: 10 wipes to clean poo? WOW, one pack can last u 8 poops then? U shd use tissue paper first to 'scoop' off the poo, followed by the wet wipes. Actually, if it even warrants 10 wipes, then u might as well use cotton bales soaked in warm water to clean off the poo? That's what I do when it's an atomic bomb.
