ecookie,
I din make soup stock. My mum kinda against stocking up ready made food in fridge. Tried once n kenna scolding n nag till I give up. Haiz...
Plenty of mummies prepare soup stock for babies. What is it for? Have it with porridge?
Perhaps I should do something about the recipe for their dinner? Coz theirs are kinda standard.

Yes, green bean soup w/ sweet potato is considered 'liang'. We give only once a week on weekend. Coz of the heatiness in milk, cereal n brown rice, we give it once a week to go with the against-heatiness. =D
chintz,
Mum n helper prepare the soup. Juz called mum n asked her. Add grean beans to the pot of water, boil n stir occasionally. Halfway thru, add in the small cubes of sweet potatoes. When almost ready, try out the 'cookness' of the sweet potatoes. Be the guinea pig of it prior to letting bb try. ;P

bbwow,
Nope, we get the corn out from the cob manually n blend them. If for convenience, we oso juz boil them with rice porrdige but din serve. The porridge does have corn taste. yumyum... =D
Sorie, I seriously think you should talk to your MIL to let J alternate other veg with fish. If not, u buy the veg. n tell her to give on which day n wat lor. Hmmm... U plan @ nite, n tell her what to give J for porridge when u fetch J over in the morning. Thatz what I do b4 leaving for work every morning.
Hopefully ur MIL can be cooperative n listen. >.<

Re:cooking stock:
I usually prepare simples ones like pork ribs or chicken stock. I will buy the chicken bones/ pork bones or lean meat fom NTUC. Wash them and remove the skin or fats.Drain them in hot water before putting them in the slow cooker. Then add hot boiling water and use HIGH heat to cook for abt 3 hours.When done remove the bones and filter the stock to remove the excess oil.Wait till cool then pack and freeze them.
This are simple ones. If u wanna add more taste can put one dry scallop into the porridge together with the stock plus ur veges.

CM,
family biz is like that one. I ever heard of 7 days AL before and everything else including bonus depending on boss one. They like they give and no such thing as year end or end of accounting period.
Looks like the new measure by govt is preventing a lot of female looking for a job now! My friend told me even before the annoucement, she was always asked abt whether is she planning for a 2nd one blah blah blah, I think now gonna be worst! what's your plan after your holidays?
No one keen in celebrate express huh? Free shipping to US address so only need to pay vpost charges.

bbwow, ecookie
I bring my son to Junior league hair salon. Find it qt good, v baby-friendly. they hv qt a few branches. Usually, I'll go to the one at United Sq. The one at Suntec is v popular too. and of cos PP.
bbwow
it's not town council. they are only in charge of common areas. My neighbours are also like that 11plus pm also can slam door, and drag chair, etc. and it often wakes clare up cos it's in the masterbedroom. I'm so v tempted to go to talk to them.

Morning mummies !!
Sorry, I've been lurking all this while....too lazy to post.
bbwow,
Complain to police. Town council can't do anything.
Police upon receiving your complaint will go to them and make a record. Hopefully this can scare them off.
Just last wk, my neighbourhood committee members came knocking on my door with a police, asking if I've anything to complain or not happy with. They actually went to every household to ask. I complained to them regarding one of the household staying on the upper floor singing karaoke with full blast and the police took down the particulars and commented that they've received a number of same complaints too. I think they really went up to warn the household cuz no more karaoke liao.

zhen_zhen,
I really dunno.
My hubby still tell her nicely "I understand kids like to play but 6am is still when ppl is sleeping!" The least she could do is tell her kids not to jump!
krissie,
my neighbour also jump and drag chair at 11pm but J too tired so night is ok. IT's the morning 6am that irritates me cause we're all still sleeping! and you know babies are in light sleep during this period so any noise will wake them up.
I have the most evilish urge to ring their doorbell at 3am and see how they feel. sighh..

bbwow, hugs.. dun be too angry.. i hope u can settle with them.. there are kids involved so situation quite tricky. i dunno abt others la.. but my mum & grandma are used to waking up at 4.30 - 5am in the morning to do their housework.. they dun make much noise but adri's sleeping patterns are tuned to theirs. she wakes up ard 6am nowadays. so can u imagine in another 2 years time, she might just be like those kids who are disturbing ur sleep now.. i'm not saying this is right la.. but adults will do all they can to prevent disturbing pple.. but kids are kids lo.. they dun lie, neither do they know how to keep their noise level down.. actuali the jump up & down i can understand.. i can't understand the dragging of furniture though.. and at 11pm? hmm.. dun be angry okie? i hope J is fine and this will be resolved soon..

hippo,
yea I can totally understand that it's just kids nature. But I feel that parents discipline plays a part too. If they allow their kids to jump at any part of the day, then there's no way to control them liao.
My hubby still kindly told them it's ok to make noise for the rest of the days but try to keep the minimum at that unearthly 5-6am. That's the LEAST we could ask for. the prob is they denied and even in that wee hours and late nights, they still allow their kids to do whatever they want. I believe with some discipline, it can be somehow controlled. I don't think you would want adri to be jumping up and down at 6am right?

oh yea, once another neighbour dog was barking non-stop and we overheard the husband above complaining. Then we just shouted above, "Not as bad as yours la!" hahahah...gives us some form of anger relief.
I heard that older HDB flats has better foundation on sound-proof. Is that true?
