Nat wear shoes gotta match the colour of her clothes. But the prob is most of her shoes are pink. Then she will whine, she want blue shoes, yellow shoes... blah blah.... so I will tell her her hair clip is pink! Then ah, she will even pick my shoes, insist I am wearing wat colour, so must wear the shoes she pick out. Hee...

sanrio,
DOn't worry. Sarah is very fussy too, and vain!! She must be the one to decide which shoe to wear, which dress to wear. Some days she MUST wear a dress, cannot wear shorts and T-shirt. Aiyoh. Same lah. Must blow her nose in a certain way, water temperature for shower must be just right, I must be the one to unbuckle her from her car seat etc etc etc etc. A lot of demands.

something scary to share...this morning i brought Jana to the PD, while waiting to see doc, i overheard the clinic assistants asking the mummy at the counter...is he attending?...what is school is he attending?...we need to notify the school...turn out the kid has HFMD! i quickly got up from the sofa and then Jana and i just stood around till its our turn to see doc and then when we came home, its off to the bathroom immediately and i gave her and myself a thorough wash with dettol solution! hopefully we wont kena...else its bye bye to CNY!
viv, pv, mom2nat,
we cant hide his 'ko yak' shoes. if he din c it, he wld scream n cry n refuse to wear any other shoes. he is v 'faithful' to his shoes, he rather dun go out, dun eat anytg n will cry to look for his shoes. so drama right?
gd tat he's not girl, if he is fussy over his clothes, hairclip etc etc... then i 'peng san' liao.

faint... so scary. I think I would have moved far far away from tat boy.
Today, Nat wanted to play at my neighbour's house, then we walked over, realised one of the girls got chicken pox. BUt luckily Nat got take vaccine. But we din let them play tog. BUt hor, the family still open the door wide... wonder if the virus will spread.
V difficult and tiring to make the pineapple thingy for the tarts leh. My fren did it once, told me she wont do it again liao. So sad hor, the tarts din turn out well.
Sanrio
Aiyo, Nat can fuss over many small little things. LIke today my hb wanted to pack her toys, she threw a big fuss, cried blah blah... Sigh.

viv,
Which part of the tart turned soft? Was it the pastry or the pineapple? Did you store them in an airtight container? Hmmmmm.
sanrio,
You're right. Sarah is quite fussy over her hairclips too, and then after you've put them on for her, she'll take them off within an hour. Waste my time! But she doesn't throw big tantrums over such things (yet) so it's still not TOO bad.
Hi Jo. Welcome back.

Hi Jo. Welcome back.
PVL, actually some frens were saying that it's safe to eat sashimi in Spore but I still got no guts to do that leh. I've alr took so many med for this preg liao so dun want to have more 'harmful' things to add on to it. Hehehee... Bfg can take sashimi or not? Vane will ask me to put on clips for her, then she'll go to mirror to see, after that she'll remove the clips liao. Really waste my time and effort lor.
Mom2Nat, hahaha.. Vane also choose shoes to match her clothings..
Not to scare you, but Nat may still got chance to kenna chix pox though she had vaccine leh.
sanrio, ya ya ya... Vane also behave in some fussy ways too.
Viv, what happened??? What do you mean by very very soft? I thot pineapple's crust shd be soft to taste good mah.
jo, you just changed another new job or it's that new job that you told us abt? Happier in this new environment?

Tis is normal. Our tods r going thru a stage of showing their independence => choose wat he/she wants, self feed, put on clothes/footwear, etc
Viv
U r v humble. Both kinda tarts look v professionally done. Like those fm recipe book. Did u put a baking sheet below? u said it's a flop is it coz u dun like the texture of the crust? How long did u bake the tarts n @ wat degree? Fm wat u described, the texture of the crust u made is the kind I dream of. I like the type which melts in the mouth like powder. Share leh share leh
Chee, dat's scary
Sanrio, Viv
Is it bcoz the old shoes r seasoned n more comfortable to wear compared to the old shoes?
Giggler
taken chic pox vaccine may still get chic pox than wat's the pt to take the vaccine?
Jo
Chen Chen same as ZL won't bully others. He told me his classmate pushed him, snatched toy fm him (tis my mum saw b4)
Is ZL in the same cc?

Are you training to be a food photographer? Aiyoh you seem to be taking photos of all the food you eat! I never think of taking photos, I just EAT!! I thought that hermit crab was for eating too. Hahahaha.
You keep hermit crabs? How to find replacement shells? What do you feed them?

PVL,
wahahah.. no lah!! Mark gave me a digicam for Christmas so i'm still trying to get a hang of it. Food just so happens to be a good subject for practice at this moment since we r always zooming around to eat.
Yah, i hv two hermies. Bought shells from the actual distributor in S'pore(she's at Junction 8) before but the hermies dun like it..think cos she spray painted it. So been buying these kind of green shells from those shops selling dried flowers n home decors stuff. But it gets harder to finder bigger shells as they grow
Food, they eat hermies food lor.. so far only found it at Junction 8 (very ex. $8/bottle) and Great World City ($3/bottle) But i feed them every thing from fish food, potato chips, veg, rice etc.. that's their natural diet. only meat needs to be cooked

Regarding the pineapple tarts, did you use the same recipe for the open and closed pineapple tarts? Think it may have to be different. Let me check w my mom tomorrow.
Eureka
Went to buy home favourite pineapple tarts from Taka after reading your post. My mom finds it so so only. But it's def soft and not too sweet. Actually I also used to like Bengawan Solo leh. Bought another tub from Yan ...also at Taka. Supposedly home made too.
Giggler
I ate lots of sashimi during bfg. Can't expect me to abstain for so long since I'm still bfg now. Even ate maxwell mkts raw fish.

viv,
saw ur tarts. they really look very pro. Do u add yolk into the pastry?
Are u using creaming method? Creaming method shld be quite moist and dun really need to add egg. Egg always give me the impression that it will turn the things softer. May be u add only 1 egg or no egg at all to try.
How abt the pineapple filling? if the filling is too wet, it will soften the crust as well. I did once for CNY very long ago cant rbr where i took the receipe from. It turn out quite well, then i told my sister may be i tried again. She said I siao, forgotten that all of us stayed up to 2-3am still baking the tarts.

viv, hong,
Tarts pastry should be rubbing in method, right? Not creaming. Should be a sort of sweet shortcrust pastry. Don't add too much liquid. I have one recipe in which the only liquid is egg.
Tarts pastry should be rubbing in method, right? Not creaming. Should be a sort of sweet shortcrust pastry. Don't add too much liquid. I have one recipe in which the only liquid is egg.
brenda,
don't shout at me, i'm a sick patient now okay.
Have been sick since last tuesday. First lost my voice, then sore throat, then fever up and down for 5 days, saw doc, change 2 types of antibotics still don't help. Finally yesterday when I was feeling very slightly better, I went back to work cos too long never work liao, halfway thru, cannot tahan, ask hubby to bring me see doc again. *sigh* Doc say my throat still very bad and my nose is congested, my ear got pus that's why pain. I feel like end of the world leh, cos I never fall sooooo sick b4. This time round, doc give me another kind of antibotics and a flu medicine. N yes, I feel so much better now. Hopefully, after today, I can go back office to work and start my CNY shopping.
Okay, will promise to bake something and post it here okay.

yes, i added yolk into the pastry. i din use the creaming method, use the rub-in method instead. its it very very time consuming to make pineapple tarts, i did it over 2 days, first day fry the pineapple fillings, then 2nd day do the tarts. if do all one shot, think i'll end up baking till 2-3am too. dun think i'll try again cos need to start the prok floss roll liao!
